-----------------

In an age increasingly dominated by faceless machine-created sounds,
DJ-Producer Rebecca Vasmant is bringing a fresh new twist to dance music
with her love of jazz, the original form of unbridled spiritual sonic
expression.

While promoting her own parties in Glasgow, starting
her jazz record label Shiehallion and touring the world for Ministry Of
Sound, her whirlwind schedule has recently fitted in sessions with
eight-strong Ghanaian outfit Kakatsitsi, which will manifest as a live
fusion show mixing traditional African rhythms with modern dance
ingredients; two strains of dancefloor-friendly catharsis joining
together in a vibrant new mutant.

Rebecca has already made a name
in Glasgow with her Made In Glasgow and Know The Way parties, running a
popular record fair with the venerable Sub Club and a monthly spot on
BBC Radio Scotland playing contemporary jazz records in an attempt to
bridge the gap between this much abused but crucial genre and the
electronic scene. A huge jazz fan, she also airs this facet of her
irrepressible musical passion at key events like the Glasgow Jazz
Festival and the Baltic Soul Weekender.

Renowned UK clubs which
have been treated to Rebecca’s sublime house and techno sets include a
two year residency at Edinburgh’s Cabaret Voltaire, the Sub Club/Arches
and 69 Below in Glasgow, Aberdeen’s Snafu, Dundee’s Reading Room, We
Love... at Manchester’s Sankey’s, Leeds’ Back To Basics and London
niteries including MOS, Pacha, Turnmills and East Village. She has also
played festivals including Rockness, Audio Soup, Kelburn, Doune The
Rabbit Hole and Wickerman, plus Ibiza spots such as Space, Savannah and
Zoo Project.

Rebecca’s MOS activities have taken her to 22
countries in the last two years, including premiere spots in France,
Germany, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Estonia, India, Africa, Nicaragua,
Bosnia, Latvia, Dubai, Austria, Turkey, Serbia, Algeria and Bulgaria.
