I recently found myself setting sail on Holy Ship an electronic music festival held aboard a Caribbean Cruise ship. It was fun, surreal, exhausting, and did I say fun (it was very fun.)
DJ Gina Turner was one of the surprise high points of the line up. Her set was a mix of live singing and spun records, plus she looked AMAZING doing it.
The other major highlight of the lineup was the amazingly talented group Buraka Som Sistema from Portugal. They play an interpretation of Angolan techno called Kuduro. Download their music here and turn your living room into an insta-disco
On a mildly scary note (Particularly in light of the Italian cruise tragedy, in which 6 people died and many remain missing) our boat ran onto a coral reef and was stuck for about 12 hours off the coast of the Bahamas. However unlike the Italian shipwreck, nothing terrible happened, in fact the party just continued on. The only evidence that anything was awry were some vibrations that briefly awoke my boyfriend and I from our slumber around 5 am (which turned out to be tugboats trying to pry the ship free) and the empty pool that they drained in attempts to lighten the load. Turns out God is an electronic music fan.
This neon Cambridge Bag is always a winner in my book.
