Superstar international DJ for Club Revival gig

Sash! presents a live DJ set at Club Revival, Oldcastle, on Sunday next, 5th September. German front man Sascha Lappessen was born in June 1970 in Nettetal near Mönchengladbach. At the tender age of six, Sascha had joined SC Lobberich. At twelve he scored 65 goals in just one season and he received an attractive offer from Borussia Mönchengladbach, but his father put a stop to this professional soccer career by refusing to take his son to training sessions far off several times a week. So Sascha stayed a lot of his free time at home and spend most of it with fooling around an organ, which he had received as a present at nine. Smart and sassy, he soon discovered that he was able to improve his pocket money with his musical talent. After a professional training as power electronics engineer, Sascha worked as a light-jockey and disc-jockey in a big club in Germany. Soon he met his future production partners Thomas Alisson and Ralf Kappmeier. The SASH! team worked with a lot of different vocalists like Adrian Rodriguez, Shannon, Tina Cousins, Dr Alban, Sarah Brightman and Boy George. They worked as well in a lot of different languages like Spanish, French, Italian or African. SASH! is not only successful in Europe, but also the USA, New Zealand, Russia, Australia, South Africa and Japan. Because of the good sound of the SASH! Productions, a lot of famous artists like Jean Michel Jarre, 2 Unlimited, Todd Terry, OMD and Kylie Minogue asked to remix their songs. After 15 years of big success and international sales of 18 million, all the hits are together on one album, 'SASH!- Best Of (10th Anniversary).' All the tunes entered the charts around the world almost everywhere in the top ten positions, and can be heard in Oldcastle on Sunday night.
