What do Ministers De la Funk, The Dronez, RAW, Smooth Touch, RBM, Deep Soul, Club Ultimate, Li’l Mo Ying Yang, Reel 2 Real & Sympho Nympho have in common? They all involve Erick Morillo! He’s been known under many pseudonyms but for the purpose of this preview let’s just call him the 2014 Labour of Love headliner. The I Like To Move It hit maker has been making beats & spinning records since 1992. Considering Morillo holds the record for the longest ever residency (13 years), at Pacha Ibiza there’s no question he will have the Guv Main Room crowd “dancin” up a storm.
Also featured on this year’s bill is Serbian-Australian DJ Dirty South, who’s hit single City of Dreams is one of my personal favorites. I’m getting chills up my spine just thinking about the atmosphere in the main room when he drops that chart topper which also features Alesso & Ruben Haze.
Some people have remarked that this years lineup is short on “brand name” DJs. Personally, I’m really glad that INK set up this bill to showcase our extremely talented local DJs. Longtime Guv resident Mark Oliver rounds out the talent in the main room and anyone who’s frequented Guv over the years knows not to under estimate him. Two of my personal local favorites Deko-Ze & Joee Cons will be spinning on the rooftop Skybar alongside Italian producer EDX who’s catalogue stretches all the way back to 1997.
Chroma will also be bumpin with an all local lineup of Manzone & Strong, MC Flipside & Hatiras. For me Joe Manzone & Fab Strong have come to symbolize everything that The Guvernment Nightclub is all about. I can’t even begin to count the number of mornings I’ve danced away listening to these two masterfully controlling the tempo, and keeping the vibes going well past 6 a.m.
Not to be forgotten, the hard right turn as you enter the main room also known as Acid Lounge will feature Peter Zurub, Quik and Tyrell.
Get your tickets now so you don’t miss out on some epic #GuvLuv at the final edition of Labour of Love.
