Following
our previous report on the
Chamjam (5-9 March)
it's now been confirmed that Ash, Hybrid
(provided by Radio 1) Leftfield Sound System
and Pressure Drop will all be performing at the
event.
Each day the DJs & artists will
play at the competition venue on the mountain (using
a 10k TurboSound rig!) while specatators enjoy the BBQ
and bar. Following the action on the mountain, there
will be a Prize Giving Ceremony in the snow at the bottom
of the hill each day followed by a live set by one of
the acts.
The town will be kicking off big
time as local bands from Chamonix and other resorts
perform and the Garage and Dicks Tea Bar play host to
top DJs from around Europe. The MTV Snowball Party will
take place on Wednesday 7 March at Bar du Moulin with
a line up including Jacques Lu Cont (Les Rhythmes Digitales),
Smokin Jo, Corin Martin, Rob Mac (Scratch/Speeka) and
Matt Smooth (Scratch/Speeka).
As we revealed earlier this month,
Radio 1 will be heavily involved in the event.
The Jo Whiley Show will be broadcasting live from Les
Grands Montets on Thursday 8 March (the day of the Boss
des Bosses and Big Air), with Ash playing live on the
mountain. In the evening Hybrid will be performing as
the evening show goes out live from the town centre.
BBC's Ski Sunday will also be present, putting
together a 15 minute package on the most exciting music
and freesports event in the Alps. Turn on, tune in and
drop out... (or something like that!).
