Following on a hugely successful debut in the Ukraine, which
saw the attendance of 16,000 fans, the “Godskitchen Boombox” will be
making its way to Johannesburg and Cape Town where South African fans will
be able to experience this unique structure. This extraordinary production
is a must-see and will be landing in South Africa along with the world’s
#1 DJ Armin Van Buuren.
Armin will man the controls of this colossal rectangular
structure housing state-of-the-art DJ equipment as Godskitchen debuts this
unique architectural, multimedia, visual and music event concept in South
Africa. The “Boombox” acts as a giant screen from which an astounding
combination of lighting and visuals can be projected in perfect
synchronisation with the music. Godskitchen has become renowned for
combining the biggest DJs on the planet with groundbreaking production
values that bedazzle crowds in excess of 15 000.

The Godskitchen Boombox is the brainchild of ‘1024’ the
people behind Exyzt, the Parisian based design collective who are pioneers
of structural projection and responsible for numerous art and cultural
design installations across Europe. At over 16 metres wide, 8 metres high
and 6 metres deep the structure combines next generation technology whilst
marrying architecture with art.
Armin Van Buuren, Paul van Dyk, David Guetta, John Dahlback,
ATB, Sander Van Doorn and Judge Jules are just a smattering of the names
set to perform in the ‘Godskitchen Boombox’ around the world, following in
the paths of Eric Prydz, Above & Beyond, Markus Schulz, Mauro Picotto, and
Josh Gabriel. Armin was recently voted #1 in DJ Magazine’s Top 100 poll
and along with tulips and Edam, is one of Holland’s most popular exports.
Armin Van Buuren entertained 16,000 people at the largest
indoor event ever in the Ukraine and more recently played Godskitchen in
Poland. Tickets for the shows in Johannesburg on Saturday the 13th of June
and in Cape Town on Monday the 15th of June are available through
Computicket from R180.
