Week end event in Paris, "the Techno Parade"
Joachim, you take part in the new Techno Parade.
An event you were the patron in 2007
Yes, 2 years ago
And each year you are involved in the Techno Parade
So tell me a little bit more
What does the Techno Parade represent for you ?
That's the opportunity to party in Paris streets
to invite some friends
to make people dance
and also to bring together things I love
technology, good music, atmosphere...
It's a meeting I like !
We finally succeeded in getting back the generator
we have all the structure pieces,
we have just mounted the floor for public.
We put up the first floor balustrade,
but there will be a second one above,
at the top of the screen to avoid people falling from the float.
And there we would see the settlement to see the place we have.
We're going to bring up CO2 bottles,
then we will take the truck to bring it docked.
We will prepare the sound and after everything will be fine,
we will start working on the video.
The aim is everything will be established tonight
and tomorrow only a few adjustments will remain,
maybe a bit of cables but we will have all day to get ready.
"Invader 2" I'm very proud of it, it’s got off to a good start !
I think the video of 13 meters...
"it's going to make a big impression !"
I think we can make it.
Because we remember 2007, Space invaders remember, but there is something more...
What's new this year ?
If you look under your feet, you would find CO2 cylinders.
A few hours left Joachim.. so ?
It's getting ready, it feels better, I think everything will be ready in 2 or 3 days...
What ? Tomorrow ? Very soon...
Is the parade not on next saturday ?
The first technoparade was created in 1998
in order to defend and promote cultures and electronic musics in France.
From that time it has been an annual date
which is taking place every september in Paris streets for me and a 1O people team.
It’s one year working to prepare a float,
to bring together the DJS , to bring together partners and synchronize whole.
We are never sheltered from a last-minute surprise.
We have big technical problems
which haven't been resolved yet and we're starting in 3 hours
We haven't the solution....
That's terrible !
Anyway we have a nice motor-home
This Saturday, september 19, about 20 floats take place
on the Denfert Rochereau square in Paris
to make dance a few millions clubbers
This year I decided to invite DJs friends and producers
to come and discover Paris in an original way :
standing on a trailer truck surrounded by square meters of video LEDs and CO2 canons.
Axwell, Steve Angello, Dirty South, Laidback Luke,
Dabruck & Klein, Robbie Rivera, Mickael Kaiser,
Antoine Clamaran and I are going
to go in turn behind the turntable of our customized truck.
13.10 : Arrival Denfer Rochereau square
A few Space invaders are already there
and the atmosphere is nice with a sun
which is going to reduce unfortunately the LEDs screens visibility.
Too bad..but first we are there to have fun !
