Pacha NYC presents the return of International DJ/Producer David Guetta for a special Thanksgiving weekend extravaganza on Friday, November 27th, 2009. On the heels of Guetta’s new critically acclaimed album ‘One Love’ (Astralwerks), Guetta continues to conquer America with his most extensive U.S. tour to date and a triumphant return to NYC to recapture the dancefloor magic.

I can’t wait to tour in America,” said Guetta.  “I played at the Electric Daisy Carnival in LA and Electric Zoo in NYC this summer and the crowd’s energy was amazing.  There is a real dance culture happening in America right now that I find very exciting.

Guetta has been on a hot streak since early summer, having produced the Black Eyed Peas record-breaking “I Gotta Feeling” along with the global success of ‘One Love’s’ summer anthem “When Love Takes Over” featuring Kelly Rowland and new monster hit “Sexy Bitch” featuring Akon. ‘One Love’ has hit #1 across Europe and entered the U.S. iTunes album chart at #12. Guetta was recently named the European ambassador and spokesperson for DJ Hero, further solidifying his stature as one of the world’s biggest DJ’s. This hotly anticipated game on Activision is out now and features 3 ‘One Love’ tracks – “Sexy Bitch,” “When Love Takes Over” and “On the Dancefloor” – in an exclusive download package format.

Guetta released ‘One Love,’ a non-stop, party-thumping musical hybrid of dance beats and hip-hop/R&B vocals to rave reviews in August 2009 to rave reviews.  People Magazine called ‘One Love’ “a party-rocking album” and the Associated Press agreed, “Guetta’s CD is one big party.” The album features vocals from some of music’s biggest names that includes Akon, apl de ap, Estelle, Kid Cudi, Ne-Yo, Novel, Kelly Rowland, Will.I.Am and Chris Willis.

Guetta continues to reach new heights in America.   “When Love Takes Over”  hit the  #1 spot on the Billboard dance chart, reached #28 on the Top 40 airplay chart and #76 on the Billboard Hot 100.   The second single “Sexy Bitch” is currently #1 of the Billboard dance chart, #35 on the Top 40 radio airplay chart, #23 on the Rhythmic radio airplay chart, #34 on the Billboard Hot 100 and climbing at a rapid pace.  To date, it has sold nearly 400,000 digital downloads and is currently #21 on the singles chart. The Guetta produced Black Eyed Peas single “I Gotta Feeling” is undoubtedly one of the biggest songs of the year, making the Black Eyed Peas the longest running artist to sit at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.

Guetta shows no signs of slowing down with the announcement of his U.S. ‘One Love’ tour.   Be on the lookout for the video for his 3rd single “One Love” featuring Grammy® award winner Estelle, another song sure to take over dance floors and radio airwaves around the world.

at Tavern | Hamptons

PACHA : DAVID GUETTA MINI-SITE www.pachanyc.com/guettahamptons

Pacha NYC is setting sail to the Hamptons this summer with none other than French Superstar DAVID GUETTA manning the decks at Tavern on Friday, May 22nd to kick off the Memorial day weekend and summer 2009.

At his last event at Pacha NYC in April, DAVID GUETTA simply delivered an eye shocking, jaw dropping show. To see Guetta take control of a dancefloor is something special. A direct connection with the crowd, driving hands in the air as he works CDJs, EQs and effect, Guetta creates moments. Fans singing along to his hit records, it creates a vibe that leaves people remember a night filled with happy smiles and dancing hearts.

DAVID GUETTA is a name synonymous with the world’s greatest house and dance music, and with the DJ sets and parties that bring that music to life. Since releasing his first pioneering house single in 1992, David Guetta has sold over 2 million albums worldwide and over 3.2 million singles. He has been France’s No. 1 club DJ for a decade, and was named the world’s No. 1 House DJ in 2008. DAVID GUETTA has teamed with the internationally revered Pop/R&B goddess and Grammy winner KELLY ROWLAND for Guetta’s new single, “When Love Takes Over,” released digitally as a single track on April 28 2009.

With three chart-topping albums to date (Just a Little More Love, 2002; Guetta Blaster, 2004; Pop Life, 2007), EMI Music will release Guetta’s much-awaited 4th album in June 2009 in France and in September 2009 internationally. Guetta and his wife Cathy are also famed for staging the mega-sized dance parties, F*** Me I’m Famous, for tens of thousands of fans from Ibiza to Miami, New York, London, Barcelona and Paris. They have released four club compilation packages with the same name.

A summer extravaganza with the Club World Awards “Best Superclub” Pacha New York in the Hamptons surely will make this year’s Memorial Day kick off event a special and memorable night not to be missed!

There are few DJs in the world that create the reaction that David Guetta sparks. Whether it’s 50,000 fans singing along to his hit records at the recent massive Stade De France stadium Unighted über-party, or dark rooms of clubbers locked in the groove nine hours into his set, Guetta gets passions flowing. That’s because he uniquely and boldly treads a tightrope most DJs wouldn’t dare to traverse: the line between being an underground DJ and having huge crossover success.

Pacha NYC presents French Pop/Dance Music Superstar DAVID GUETTA – March 21st

Friday, March 14th, 2008

David Guetta

Friday, March 21st
Pacha NYC presents
DAVID GUETTA
w/ DAVID WAXMAN

Pacha NYC welcomes back France’s ambassador to the fabulous life DAVID GUETTA for one of the most anticipated parties of the year on Friday, March 21st. The white-hot Guetta makes a pit stop on his way down to another legendary F*ck Me I’m Famous party in Miami for a full, uninterrupted night of rocking house, power-disco and dancefloor singalongs.

A household name in his native France, multi-million selling producer, recording artist and promoter DAVID GUETTA has found the rest of the world is rapidly catching up, following the U.S. release of his third album Pop Life on Perfecto/Ultra Records.

“For me, it is all about sharing my passion with people,” he says. “That is why I am a DJ. A lot of producers, they don’t think it’s cool to play for people. But even in the studio I love to play for my friends. When I DJ, I play for the party – because I love to share my music.”

At first, taking his music to the rest of the world proved to be an eye-opener. “I went from a business class ticket to EasyJet,” he laughs. “Which is totally fine with me. It was really funny more than anything.” In Ibiza, English and American holidaymakers were initially not too sure what to make of David and his team handing out flyers full of exotic-sounding French names.

“People would laugh at us,” he remembers. “Especially the British people.” They weren’t laughing for long as Daft Punk, Cassius and the rest of the French dance scene exploded, David’s Ibizan ‘Fuck Me I’m Famous’ nights became the #1 destination, thanks to an ethos that harked back to the original spirit of clubbing.

“The idea is to have people who don’t normally mix,” says David, of the hugely successful nights he runs with his wife Cathy. “Clubbing had become like ghettos again, when it comes to my own night I try to do something different. At my night the social barriers come down – there are not many places where you can find a superstar next to a billionaire, a model dancing next to a student.”

What started as an ironic name – David wasn’t well-known at all outside France – ‘Fuck Me I’m Famous’ soon proved apt, with everyone from Kate Moss to Penelope Cruz to P Diddy joining the fortnightly pilgrimage, fired up by David’s skills as an irresistible party DJ. “My wife brings the glamorous people,” he admits, “and I bring the crazies.”

By now David had become one of the most in-demand DJs in the world, headlining nights in America, Australia, Japan, South America and beyond. Meanwhile, David’s career as a recording artist was blasting off into the stratosphere. His first two albums Just A Little More Love (2002) and Guetta Blaster (2004) had already reached 2 x gold in Europe, while the Wally Lopez mix of “Just A Little More Love” became David’s first UK hit in 2003, and remains a deathless Ibiza anthem to this day. In 2005 he was nominated for a Grammy for his remix of Deep Dish’s “Flashdance” and earned that rarest of seals of approval – the invitation to remix David Bowie, in the shape of his peerless “‘Heroes’” track. He was named DJ Of The Year at London’s House Music Awards.

Then, in 2006, David Guetta vs The Egg’s mash-up “Love Don’t Let Me Go (Walking Away)” was a Top 10 smash around the world. In the UK it held the Top 20 for over two months. It caught the eye of Paul Oakenfold who quickly signed David to his Perfecto Records label for the release of Guetta Blaster in the U.S. The song was released in America April 2007 and still continues to chart on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Play chart today.

Meanwhile, three Fuck Me I’m Famous triple gold-selling mix CDs, together with a record label of the same name, plus roadblock nights at the Miami Winter Music Conference, soon ensured FMIF was one of clubland’s most revered brands. The ‘Guetta Sound’ was truly becoming a global phenomenon. “I am like a tightrope walker,”David admits. “It is difficult, but my goal is that the super-cool DJs of the world play me, but I’m being played on the radio, too. That’s very hard.”

But David is about to show that gift is no fluke. The 14 tracks on new album Pop Life prove we’re dealing with the rarest of talents – someone who can move hearts and minds on the dancefloor and the Top 40. “It’s a balancing trick,” he says. “When you make a track for the club, it is the repetitiveness that makes it work best; so it becomes hypnotic, like a trance. But when you listen at home, you look for music with a lot of changes – because that is what gives it emotion. And I love emotion. So I have to have both.”

Hitting the ground running with two huge tracks, “Love Is Gone” (classic Guetta, featuring Chris “Just A Little More Love” Willis on vocals) and “Baby When The Light” (“The total opposite of what I usually do… a very feminine kind of fragility”), Pop Life features co-writes for the first time with Cathy Dennis (Kylie Minogue) and Karen Poole (Jamelia/Girls Aloud/Lily Allen), to name two. It’s David best album to date and also suitably-named, from the one DJ who knows pop isn’t a dirty word; whose club nights are open to one and all.

“Yeah, some DJs say pop is a dirty word, but I’m trying to be different!” he says. “Of course dance music is pop music! I’m always faithful to my community, but this album also has big, quality pop melodies. It’s the best album I’ve produced. I’m really happy and proud of it.”

David Guetta’s Pop Life is out now on Perfecto/Ultra Records
