SuperMartXe "Samurai"


Hey Folks,

Well, there is little doubt that that SuperMartXe had a fantastic year, with some spectacular parties that seemed to draw the world & his wife down to Elephant & Castle, packing out The Coronet time after time. And whilst the team had a few challenges along the way, there was no question that you simply adored what they did, voting it second only to the phenomenon that is Beyond, in The Seenqueen 2009 club poll.

2010 also started well for Logan & his team, not only hailing the resounding success that was “Alice In Wonderland” at the O2 academy in Brixton, but also took grip of the helm at Matinee, successfully drawing another massive turnout out of the proverbial bag and showing that the “stripped down look”, with the music doing most of the talking, was the winning ticket, although there were plenty of other really positive things to draw from the event.

So, now the focus of the Logan Presents team switches back to SuperMartXe, with the next instalment entitled “Samurai” no doubt taking gAylist London by storm on Saturday 27th February, which sets out to lead you on a journey to the Far East (in the south east!) with some oriental overtness & Asian audacity along the way. Now, if previous events are anything to go by, you can expect the production to be absolutely top notch and with the theme of the land of the rising sun running through it, SuperMartXe “Samurai” promises to deliver a scintillating stage show, offering up a whole host of sexy oriental lions, dragons & geisha girls (maybe boys too!) in the form of Logan’s schmitzels, no doubt dressed in a sexy selection of kimino’s & probably a lot less. But, with the Chinese having just celebrated their New Year and it being the year of the Tiger, we are sure this will (or should) be a dominant feature of the party. Now, the team seem to be falling into the habit of keeping the P.A.’s very much under wraps and as yet details have not been passed across our desk, but be sure that we will be keeping our ears to the ground and listening out for any slip of the tongue that might occur, even adopting the odd Chinese burn to force the necessary information out.

What we can confirm is the D.J. line up and we were in hysterics when we saw the adopted names of these stars of musical mastery, so just had to share them with you. SuperMartXe “Samurai” sees the return of, wait for it, Hugo “Soy Sauce” Sanchez, who for us was the shining light at the “Under The Sea” party back in October with some scorching sounds, injecting real enthusiasm into his set then, not to mention attracting more than an eyeful with his smouldering good looks. We suspect that he will once again prove to be a big hit with the Coronet crowd, taking the middle of three sets in the main room. Then there is Tony “Crouching Tiger” English who played a stormer at “Alice” and whilst we weren’t there to sample his set, the download he released after the event was testament to superb showing, the man treating us to a SuperMartXe style selection of sounds just this last weekend at Lovechild’s 1st Birthday, so should prove a real hit, taking up the final D.J performance at “Samurai”. But starting the party off like no-one else can, will be (and we just love this name – not ours you understand!) Steve “Ping Pong” Pitron, who is renowned for playing it a little more Spanish style at SuperMartXe, but had us in absolute awe of his performance at the “1st Anniversary” and has since racked up a stupendous string of sets at Beyond, this last Sunday proving no exception when he probably played the best collection of tunes of anyone across the six parties we attended (well neck a neck with one other!) and is a major draw wherever he goes, so make sure you don’t miss out on him on 27th, as we will definitely not.. The second room will be in the hands of SuperMartXe resident Marlon K “Karate Kid” Jones, providing a little bit of Dutch delight to the Spanish come “Samurai” proceedings.

Turning to some of the detail, which we will no doubt cover closer to the time, we need to mention the essentials, being firstly about the tickets, with advance ones now available at Soho shop/retail outlets, Prowler, Clone Zone, DV8 & Solarstation, with bars Profile, The Box & BCV also doing their ticketing bit. If you prefer buying online, then go to http://clubtickets.com/ and if you fancy treating you & your pals to a VIP package, then direct your enquiries to vip@loganpresents.com. Now, if all the previous parties are to go by, we cannot stress enough that getting there early is the best way to enjoy the party to the max and avoid any lengthy queues at the coatcheck, so with the doors opening at 10.30 p.m., heed our words and make the most of it, partying right through until the 7 a.m. finish.

But, this Far East fantasy kicks off with the SuperMartXe “Samurai” pre-party this Friday (19th Feb) at the central London location that seems to be the talk of the town at the moment, Profile & Lo-Profile on Soho’s Wardour Street. And no doubt the team will have lots of surprises up their sleeves and (we hope) an elusive SuperMartXe t-shirt or three to giveaway. Now, we know lovable schmitzels Mauricio & Lunarde will be on tap, although we hope that the man himself will be making an appearance (he usually does) and if the last two pre-parties are anything to go by, the whole night should be a hoot. Upstairs in Profile the musical entertainment will be courtesy of Gaydar’s own Phil Marriot, the Friday resident D.J. at the bar, while downstairs in Lo-Profile, Paul Heron (we should think of a name – what about “Ha So”?) and Tony “Crouching Tiger” English will be spinning the SuperMartXe sounds, pumping some real pace into the pre-party which looks like running well into the early hours.

So, with everything seemingly pointing towards the land of the rising sun in SuperMartXe world, make sure you scroll both this Friday (19th Feb) and the following Saturday (27th Feb) in your diaries, as these are two darling dates you won’t want to miss. We will definitely be down at The Coronet and no doubt will drop in on the team at Profile/Lo-Profile, so if you see us, come say hi and as we always say..........Go There! Be There!
