All the Sasha fans out there will have to sit tight for one more month. His new FUNDACION residency which kicked off last month to a packed house at Crobar - "Best Superclub" nominee for The 3rd Annual Club World Awards, is skipping its previously scheduled date this weekend and will resume next month on February 4th, 2005.

Although the club could not be reached for any official comment on the rescheduling, we can only assume the programming strategy was re-thought post-NYE debauchery and all the broke piggy banks. Even die-hard clubbers need a respite, especially after a killer weekend with Sander Kleinenberg kicking off his new EVERYBODY Crobar residency on New Year's Day.

For the wicked, there is no rest and the party must go on. This Friday, Crobar is hosting prolific NYC producer That Kid Chris. His succession of hit tracks and remixes have reverberated on dancefloors everywhere and now you can come here the real thing. You can expect his set to be peppered with his ongoing hit list, including; "Come Together", "Satisfied", "Come With Me Tonight", "Keep On Pressin' On" et al.



SASHA (nee Alexander Coe) rode into America on a tidal wave of adoration from the North of England's explosive early 90’s club scene and for the last decade has consistently sold out every venue, festival or club that has been honored to witness his legendary performance abilities. He established himself as a formidable, in-demand remixer by reconstructing tracks from an incredible array of artists such as Madonna, Seal, Pet Shop Boys, UNKLE, The Chemical Brothers, BT, Orbital and M People. His current album Involver (Global Underground) is a redefining package--part-DJ mix, part-remix album and part-artist album. Upon its June 22, 2004 release, it debuted on several Billboard charts: #1 Top Electronic Albums, # 9 Top Heatseekers, #14 Top Independent Albums and #200 The Billboard 200. On November 16, Global Underground released Involver - Special Edition including the initial version of the album along with a bonus retrospective collection of his most notable remixes from the last 12 years. Handpicked by Sasha, these include works by UNKLE, Gus Gus, The Chemical Brothers and more.


Other SASHA releases include the acclaimed 2002 BMG/Kinetic studio full-length Airdrawndagger (which has sold over 210,000 copies worldwide), the seminal 4-track Xpander EP and his 1999 Global Underground installments Global Underground 013: Ibiza and Global Underground 009: San Francisco. SASHA’s next release is the 10th Anniversary reissue of his and John Digweed’s Renaissance: The Mix Collection due out on Renaissance/Studio Distribution January 25, 2005.
