5 Technotronic 'Pump Up The Jam'

The Black Madonna, Sunday at Palace: The Chicago DJ’s set was eclectic and extremely well received by the crowd, dropping disco gems like Chaka Khan’s ‘All Night’ before rolling into Lil Wayne, yes that Lil Wayne. I celebrated my 22nd birthday in Malta and there was nowhere I would have rather been than in a rave with The Black Madonna. At Midnight I found myself singing along to Technotronic’s 1989 banger ‘Pump Up The Jam’ as I raved my way into another year of life.

6 Dave feat. AJ Tracey 'Thiago Silva'

Dave, Friday at Tropicana: Representing the new wave of UK grime, Dave was a highly anticipated act on the line-up. He commanded the stage like no other, and his lyrical prowess is even more impressive live. He was supposed to be joined by AJ Tracey for their track ‘Thiago Silva’, but it turned out that the West London rapper missed his flight, so he asked the crowd if anyone knew the words to help him out onstage. It wasn’t long before a skinny guy with glasses and a manbag, an unassuming grime fanatic, jumped onstage. The DJ ran the track and suddenly out came these bars, with this guy performing the track word-for-word alongside Dave. His name was Henry. He smashed the set and the crowd even demanded a wheel-up. Afterwards Henry was promised eternal guestlist for the performance of his life. We'll be following this up to make sure it happens.
