The Magic Behind The Scenes at Voodoo

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

There are too many music festivals on the national circuit to count, but few had the charm and talent of this year’s Voodoo Music Experience. Acts like KISS, Eminem, Jane’s Addiction, Flaming Lips and more played to over 100,000 people over Halloween weekend in beautiful New Orleans. And not even the wet weather could keep the crowds away.

The Big Easy was the perfect backdrop for this event and before each artist/band made their way to the stage, they found their way to our gifting area in the artist lounge and walked away with a VTech IS9181 WiFi Internet Radio and Cordless phone. Here’s a quick look at who dropped by.

Behind the Scenes with DJ Soul Sister at Voodoo

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

At the VTech/Filter Kick-Off party at the Howlin’ Wolf, New Orleans native, DJ Soul Sister took our stage with her collection of rare groove and deep funk and lead us through a vinyl journey from the 60s to the 80s.

DJ Soul Sister, the Queen of Rare Groove has been rocking parties and the airwaves since 1994. A tastemaker and authority on soul, funk, groove and more, her “Soul Power” show is the longest-running rare groove radio show in the U.S.

Here with Filter TV, we go behind the scenes with the queen in a brief interview after her set at the Howlin’ Wolf.

The Zombies Came Out To Party at Voodoo

Tuesday, November 10th, 2009

At this year’s Voodoo Music Experience, located in New Orleans, we experienced three madcap days of outdoor art and music. With dancing elves, clowns, Kiss fans and zombies gathering en masse over Halloween weekend. The weekend kicked off with an afterparty at the Howlin’ Wolf on Thursday night sponsored by VTech with performances by DJ Soul Sister, Jay Electronica, The Knux and Biz Markie.

Here’s a behind the scenes look at The Knux. More videos soon to come.

On Friday, torrential rains drenched spectators creating a muddy bog, but spectators danced the night away to French DJ duo Justice and faced the cold and wet weather to see Eminem in his first full live performance in five years. Saturday saw a change in weather and music from local musicians Irvin Mayfield and Leon “Chocolate” Brown, while Gogol Bordello caused a frantic dance party. Halloween drew thousands of costumed spectators for Jane’s Addiction and Kiss. And a bid to break the Guinness record for largest zombie gathering (4,026) fell way short (1,701). And Sunday, the festival ended with perfect weather and performances by Widespread Panic, Lenny Kravitz, and more.

Another great year at the Voodoo Music Experience.
