Revolutions in Sound

Join Red Bull for 30 simultaneous parties on the London Eye

An example of how a big brand can actually develop and work in conjunction with DJs and producers, Red Bull recently stole the show for us at Bestival where we caught everyone from Ghost Poet's bedsit hip-hop to Kidkaneval mixing between juke and jungle on their stage.

They've now pulled out all the stops for a ridiculously good party named Revolutions in Sound which takes place on Thursday 13th October in London.

Step one, take over the London Eye. Step two, hold a party in every one of the 30 pods with a line-up (full details below) that includes DJs and bands with everyone from Hessle Audio and Night Slugs to Andy Weatherall and The 2 Bears.

Then the icing on the cake, step three, make tickets free - they're available from 10am this Thursday 22nd September, full details below - and broadcast all the parties online at www.redbullmusicacademy.com/worldtour/london so even if you're not there, you can join in.

There are also tickets for a silent disco where you can join the party by dancing at the base of the Eye listening to any of the pods via your headphones.

It's the first of an international tour taking in Berlin, Detroit, New York, São Paulo, Cape Town, Melbourne, Paris, Toronto and Rome, and building up to the 14th annual Academy in Madrid this October/November, all of which you can keep an eye on via www.redbullmusicacademy.com.
