DJ NESTA from New York city – For the first time in Australia!
Caribbean Carnival culture, Caribbean cuisine, and music seems to be the flavour of the month….
The Soca movement is being spear headed by the Prescription crew. With their fortnightly radio show on a local east Sydney radio station ( Bondi Beach Radio ) plus an exciting monthly event in Darlinghurst, they are known for bringing exciting elements such as a riddim section, carnival dancers and the pulsating rhythms of Soca.
The upcoming Prescription event brings an international element with DJ Nesta from Brooklyn, New York.
DJ Nesta is a well travelled DJ. He has played everywhere from Crop Over Barbados, Labour Day, New York, Nottinghill Carnival, London and Berlin’s Carnival Der Kulturen.
Sydney siders are in for a treat on Friday the 20th of November when he will be showcasing his talent here in Sydney. In a fun filled and friendly encounter, NYC ‘s DJ Nesta meets SYD’s DJ Fasmwa; expect a fun filled Caribbean atmosphere!
Behind the scenes, DJ Nesta and DJ Fasmwa have battled it out before in Costa Rica, during the SOCA vs DANCEHALL event! In 2012, the event was called a draw. Who knows where this friendly rivalry will end up this time.
People looking for a great night out, and a ticket to the Caribbean, will surely not be disappointed by this evening. You will hear whistles and see people passionate about dance “getting on bad!” as they like to say in the Caribbean.
