Woodland Creatures

Details of the location for the We Love Border Community blowout in Paris this Saturday 5th July (featuring James Holden, Nathan Fake, Petter and Ricardo Tobar) have just been revealed: the We Love Art team have secured the La Chesnaie du Roy salon in the Bois de Vincennes park right on the edge of Paris as the site for this special one-off. This info comes hot from an email from press agency Phunk, whose rather poetic French language description of the place actually came out in pretty decent English when I shoved it through Google Translate:

“Dans un lieu digne des contes de fees, une pagode en verre avec vue sur le parc floral et le grand jardin, une nuit exceptionnelle entre reveries electronica et dancefloor minimal sous les arbres.”

“In a place worthy of tales of fairies, a glass pagoda overlooking the park and the large floral garden, an outstanding night between reveries dancefloor electronica and minimal under the trees.”

The Bois de Vincennes park in the 12th arrondissement is the largest green space in Paris, and We Love Art have held a couple of parties in La Chesnaie du Roy in the past, taking full advantage of its indoor dancefloor with a view to the garden and accompanying outdoor magical woodland space for dancing in. They kindly sent me a few sneak preview photos, taken at their We Love Fantasy and We Love Get Physical events:

So as you might expect, we are all pretty excited as we prepare to descend on Paris tomorrow for a weekend of fun! The weather on Saturday evening is supposed to be warm and rain-free, if perhaps a little on the cloudy side, so all the signs are good!
