Craft & Shadi, Oliver Caine, and Dave Martin bringing you an unforgettable night of underground TECHNO!!!!
Twice as Proper -At Sweet Spot (Washington DC)
A showcase of the best representatives of true NYC and DC underground techno...
Twice as Proper is a well established New York City based underground techno events organization. It is finally landing an event in the Capital! Expect something beyond special... deep soothing dark and dirty techno beats, effects intelligently layered and crafted while you drink, socialize, dream or whatever you do in this Sweet underground club.
Craft & Shadi co-created the movement "Twice as Sweet" in 2007, which then became "Twice as Proper Sessions". With an impressive over 200 events and counting in the past 4 years alone, it is now well established in the NYC minimal & techno scene. With quite an illustrious list of guest DJ bookings in venues across Manhattan & Brooklyn, there is always something exciting and different to expect from the events. In 2010, Twice as Proper hosted 8 events in Playa del Carmen (Mexico) during the winter, as well as keeping regular NYC events alive as always. 2011 looks promising, as last year was fantastic for the two artists, bringing International tours in 5 countries, international radio shows, podcasts, music productions, TV coverage, soundcloud recordings listened to in over 71 countries, new fans and friends. Craft & Shadi have been a DJ duo since 1994 on those legendary Technics 1200's. Then followed the years of CDJ technology and mixers with effects, always keeping it dark, deep, dirty real serious. They now often perform live mixes with the ultimate Xponent controller, with many built-in live effects. They go on with explosive sets, chopping' up loops and samples, all while in the mix. The result is always "Massive". Craft & Shadi promise to rip it Proper. No crap.
