THE FIRST EVER CLUB KOKO OUTSIDE OF THE UK
KOKO Asia is proud to announce its launch party on 5th June at Barsonic, Zouk, Kuala Lumpur.
Guaranteed to become the soundtrack to your weekend debauchery the legendary KOKO spreads its wings and flies East to take its night of counter culture shenanigans to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
Bringing you the latest indie anthems, jacking electro beats and alternative tunes over 6 hours of pure, unrivaled dance floor mayhem.
With one of the most seductive line ups to ever hit Barsonic, KOKO Asia is proud to present THE STANDARDS in their Malaysian debut. Renowned for their in your face sets and electrifying performances The Standards have been dubbed the boys to call to smash up your dance floor and get the weekend started with a pounding of your ear drums and a kick to the proverbials.
For the exclusive launch of CLUB KOKO we are flying in SIMON SUBSONIC, the resident KOKO UK DJ who is currently supporting Placebo on their UK tour. Simon has played alongside the likes of the Arctic Monkeys, Gossip, Babyshambles and MGMT and regularly destroys crowds of 10,000 strong festivals in the UK.
What would your Friday night be without your usual dose of TWILIGHT ACTION GIRL pandemonium? Your local indie DJ’s will be playing their trademark brand of action to guarantee that all you sexy little swine’s have your dancing shoes well and truly tied.
We also have KL indie rockers DESERTERS playing brand new tracks from their second LP ‘Goodbye Oblivion’ in another exclusive for KOKO Asia as they demonstrate the blood, sweat and tears lost in the recording studio to bring you another record so good it should be illegal.
Piecing the whole night together is KOKO Asia’s very own JOHNNY MAYO who will plying his usual trade of guitar dominated indie canticles and slamming electro beats to get the party started.
So stop lollygagging people? Register now for what sure to be one of the biggest nights of 09 and be one of the select few to say ‘I was there’.
