Booka Shade 'moving to a new crowd'
Published Friday, Sep 17 2010, 17:06 BST | By Mayer Nissim
Booka Shade have claimed that they are still a dance act despite winning over fans of different genres.
DJ Walter Merziger told BBC 6 Music that the 'Night Falls' duo try to force themselves to be different with every release.
Merziger said: "It's constantly moving to a different crowd. We're still a dance act, but it seems that we're also attractive to people who are not so deep into the dance music scene - people who listen to normal - let's say pop and rock - stuff."
He added that the group's last album More! was a "return to the club" after the more downbeat and "cinematic" The Sun & the Neon Light, and suggested that their next release could feature live instruments and be "more organic".
Booka Shade play this year's Warehouse Project beneath Manchester Piccadilly train station as part of the Resident Advisor night with Carl Craig on November 12.
