50% m.a.n.d.y. 200% rocking

post party update: blimey… basil, wendy and of course our guest completely nailed it. great tunes from 10PM until well past 7AM, and some ridiculously happy people.

tuesday 15th june – the eve of Hong Kong’s famous Dragon Boat Festival – Yumla is extremely proud to be hosting a set from none other than Get Physical head honcho & illustrious producer a la M.A.N.D.Y.: Philipp Jung!

For those of you living under a rock since 2003: Get Physical is the label to define the last decade in house music, and there are no signs of the label slowing up in the decade to come. Home to artists like Booka Shade, DJ T, Chelonius R Jones, Lopazz, Elektrochemie, Samim and dozens of others – their release catalogue reads like a who’s who of The Bloody Awesome and the GP sound has dominated underground club music in all corners of the globe.

Supported by Yumla’s very own Wendy Wenn and Basil Tam – who in their own right are DJs not to be trifled with – miss this event at your peril.

got nothing to do after paddling a dragon-boat around all day?

the love da records crew are at it again … importers of fine tunage that they are (last month’s ninja tune and march’s k7! showcase nights were off the hook) they are back with a bagful of moshi moshi plus lots of promo goodies to support the release of the drums stunning new lp.

as if you don’t know: moshi moshi are responsible for bring bands like Architecture in Helsinki, Friendly Fires, Au Revoir Simone, Bloc Party, Casiokids, Florence And The Machine, Hot Chip, The Rakes, Metronomy  and a boatload more to market. Expect to hear that lot next wednesday 16th june 2010 by love da DJ Yuen Chi Chung & special guests.

And as with all yumla*alt events (i.e: every wednesday) there are $30 chilli vodka shots ($300 per dozen), $40 standard drinks and $50 pints to keep things bouncing along nicely.

I’d suggest taking the day off work, considering it’s a moshi moshi 16th and a get physical 15th. busy june!

tuning in

another large night looming this Saturday … more music than you can shake a stick at.

$100 +1 drink on the door, free re-entry all night, can’t fail!

Please note that Yumla will be shut on Friday December 25th (more commonly known as “Christmas Day”) and Friday January 1st… Go hard on the Eves before, then rejoin us for Saturday.

More details to follow for New Year’s Eve, traditionally a massive night and this 2009-2010 will be no different!

open bar between 7PM and 10PM on Saturday 24th October 2009. yes you read that right – free booze for all regulars during those 3 hours – as Saturday 24th is officially the day when Yumla turns 6 years old and heads into our 7th year of operation.

DJs for the night start 8PM sharp and we’ve got something very special for you: Arranged & presented by our very own Frankie Lam, the Saturday night of Yumla’s 6th year anniversary weekend will be a showcase of some of the finest underground techno DJs Japan has to offer…

Featuring the minimal-techno & jacking house sounds of Imai Fukutaro (Intermix), DJ Family (brix Tokyo), Odawara (brix Tokyo), Siegzeon (brix Tokyo) and M@i (Intermix); plus early doors with Wendy Wenn and closed off by Frankie Lam himself… really… as far as club line-ups go in HK, they do not get more hammering than this.

Saturday is still HK$100 on the door (including one drink) starting 11PM.

Now just because the big party is on Saturday night; don’t think you can miss out Friday 23rd... hosted all night by our longest running resident Wendy Wenn – and supported by Taku Hirayama – not only will there be shots aplenty and tunes from 10PM until very late ***BUT*** there is also the chance for a few lucky patrons to grab some of the limited invitations to join our staff & residents party, being held at a secret location between 5PM~4AM on Sunday 25th.

As most of the tickets have been issued to our DJs, staff and über-regulars, the public tickets for Sunday the 25th are extremely limited… but they are free, the BBQ & food is free, the booze is free, we’ve got an outdoor PA system with everyone jamming and one helluva spot for 80 people to party all night long… we wish we could do it bigger but it just isn’t possible… so if you can go the distance and are on first name terms with the staff AND you show your face on Friday 23rd, you might just be in with a chance to get one of the invites. Good luck!

… it’s that time of year again! All we can say now is make sure you keep Sunday 25th October 2009 completely free. Completely. Free.

And yes: Monday 26th is a public holiday. There will be the usual weekend shenanigans on the 23rd / 24th, but this year our birthday is all about the 25th.
