Party I dates for october and november
A few people have asked me how they can stay in touch for my dates in Paris. This blog is supposed to be the answer to that question. Unfortunately my blogging technique is rather limited and I can’t work out a good way to post all my dates up here automatically, so for now I’m going to do a monthly recap post that should feature my main dates. This is one of such (for a day to day update, the easiest way to stay in touch is via facebook – contact Nick Vu-Hoang).
Anyway back to nights in Paris, of course guest list requests for any of the following nights are welcome : nick.vh@gmail.com.
Next date coming up is on SATURDAY 31st OCTOBER at REGINE’S with the guys from PROVERBE. Yes that’s halloween isn’t it ? Well in France Halloween definitely isn’t part of things, and for some very commercial and, in my opinion, completely unwelcome reason a lot of street corner businesses have picked up on it in the past ten years, using it boost sales of whatever trade they were into. Anyway the guys at Proverbe are not having any of this, check out their halloween style, tribute to the tabloids flyer also featuring keith cowboy, scorpio and flash if I’m not mistaken. PROVERBE is a monthly webradio podcast (that can sometimes last 10 hours!) run by LutS, Lee Bayer and Etienne des Roseaux covering all faces of dance music. The night promises to be quite a festive moment (expect a lot of disco and quality house music) as it’s a saturday, Regine’s is a wicked little joint and, to crown it all, entrance is FREE! (to avoid Paris’s notorious west end ‘get out of the way cheapo’ door policy get in touch for safe guest list action).
Another good date is BEST FRIENDS on FRIDAY 6th NOVEMBER at NOUVEAU CASINO. Best Friends is one of my two Parisian residencies, mona being the other. Dedicated to leftfield soul music best Friends has had some great guests this year including Mad Mats, Gilles Peterson and Mitsu the beats. This the final party of the year and DAVINCE (my fellow resident dj) and I shall be sharing the decks with producer and dj supreme DOMU who is famous for his excellent tracks that cover all styles from broken beat to disco to hip hop and drum & bass. He’s also a very skillful and crowd pleasing dj and is part of the infamous posse of djs that includes Bugz in the attic and who reigned over that night called COOP … nuff said! A great domu mix can be found here:
Last but definitely not least we have MONA on SATURDAY 21st NOVEMBER. We are very bad with keeping things up to date at mona, I don’t really have any recent links for you to find out anything more, plus I’m not supposed to say anything about who’s playing so I guess you’ll all have to wait. I might put something up here a bit later on, as it promises to be a very very good night. I’m not trying to sell it or anything as it’s already quite a reputed night (mona spreads by word and mouth, which is the best way to learn about things in my opinion), just make sure you come down this time. The last party was with MR WHITE from Memphis who performs with Larry Heard on Alleviated records. It was the first time we actually had a singer do a live performance and he rocked. The mixes to the whole night will appear here within a couple of weeks. In the meantime you can get a taste of the atmosphere by looking at the pictures of david volants and mat cav. Stay in touch with mona here.

Friday 30th october : 4 hours of jazz funk at Baxo Tuesday 17th november : 3h hours of good music with Franck Roger at Andy Wahloo
