72 million children in the world do not go to school and Twestival 2010 aims to support Concern Worldwide’s global education programs through fundraising and awareness efforts.

Each city and school hosting a Twestival are given the opportunity to select an area of education to support, and we chose to support Concern’s Education for Girls and Teacher Training campaigns. If these areas are close to your heart, do join us for Helsinki Twestival at Nude Lounge & Club on Thursday 25th March from 8pm.

Helsinki Twestival will be held once again at Nude Lounge & Club on Thursday 25th March. Nude has kindly offered their premises for free for us and we will be at their upstairs bar from 8pm to 2am.

Twestival Helsinki tapahtumassa on DJ Jaques, ensi torstaina 10.09 Restaurant Nudessa.

DJ Jaquesin oma rakkaus house -musiikkia kohtaan leimahti jo hyvin nuorena ja itse levyjen pyörittelyn hän aloitti 90-luvun lopussa. Mutta vasta muutaman Englannissa vietetyn vuoden jälkeen pienestä harrastuksesta oli kehittynyt intohimo.

Helsinki Underground Collectiven yhtenä perustajana ja monien pienempien sekä suurempien tapahtumien järjestäjänä voi sanoa että Jaques on kokenut paljon ja ollut monessa mukana. Listaan lukeutuu mm. hyvin esklusiivit VIP Club Sauna tapahtumat, So Nice illat Rose gardenissa sekä lukuiset bakkanaalit Helsingin rennoimmassa loungebaareissa Beatrotissa ja edesmenneessä Super Barissa.

Ilta Jaquesin seurassa vie yleisön aistejahivelevälle musiikiliselle matkalle läpi sulavan soulin ja gruuvaavan funkin aina tanssijalkaa tulisesti liikuttavan housen rytmeihin. Ei voi muuta sanoa kun että astu lattialle ja anna musiikin viedä.
