After the huge success of the Gozo Music Festival 2007, which took place in August at Maxtura Fields on the island of Gozo, Dynamic Promotion is again organising an event with one of today’s most popular DJs and producers.

Yves Larock, a.k.a. Yves Cheminade (pictured) to give his real name, is entirely self-taught and owes much of his success to one of the most popular club hits of 2005: Zookey. Signed up by the Africanise and Defected labels, this track launched a brilliant new mix of zouk, reggae and house onto the house music scene.

At the beginning of 2007, he signed the new summer hit Rise up with Ministry of Sound, Universal. On Rise up, Yves has yet again expertly blended uplifting house and a reggae vocal, this time courtesy of Jaba, leader of the band Moonraisers. Steve Smart and Pete Tong played the massive hit potential at the beginning of May and since then it’s been across all the airwaves and TV.

Yet by his own definition Yves sees himself first and foremost as an all-out producer. In fact, his creative output was already firmly established before he was spotted by Map Dance and then Bob Sinclair. While Yves has always had a passion for music, he could not imagine making a living from it in a country like Switzerland, where the music scene is not yet taken very seriously.

But today his dream has become reality. Not only is Yves able to make a living from his musical output, he regularly mixes at major clubs both abroad and in Switzerland.

His output is as varied as he is non-conformist, generous and passionate, switching effortlessly from rap (his roots) to R&B, reggae and electro-house.

Yves Larock will be performing at the Maxtrura Complex on the way to Marsalforn Gozo on Saturday 20 October.

The event will host 2 rooms: the main room will feature the following line up of DJs: Yves Larock, J Joy, Miss Roberta, Carl Bee, Alvin Gee, Duncan F, Stevy Vee, Terra, Neville Peak, Malcolm B & Clayton J.

While the second room will host: N Heaven, Junior B, JD Frank, Clay C, Mark M, Panzius & Rewz
