Beginning on April 29 and continuing through August, Turbo will present a new series of events, headlined by Tiga. The shows will feature an incredible array of performers (Boys Noize, Erol Alkan, 2ManyDJs, Zombie Nation, Ivan Smagghe, PROXY, Sei A, Jori Hulkkonen, Thomas Von Party).
The concept was created by the ecologically sustainable fireplace at Turbo Headquarters, located deep in the Mountains of Montreal, says Tiga, calling from a mobile payphone. The tour is something of a Victory Lap celebrating its own inevitable triumph. Tiga said that the tour will take them to the U.S., Canada, Holland, the UK, Italy, Germany, Spain, Australia, Serbia, Belgium, Portugal and Sweden.He has done plenty of research beforehand, to make sure those places fit their definition of planet.
The Planet Turbo tour will be mirrored by the release of exclusive content, including remixes of Turbo and Tiga classics, plus new material from a veritable whos-hooray of the biggest names in dance music. There will also be a wealth of bonus Web features, as Turbo artists and friends share their unbelievably unique perspectives on the countries visited.

The Dove (aka Tiga) – My Album Is Complete *NEW TUNE* (sound more like ZZT ?)
Clash The Disko Kids (CTDK) is a Singapore electro-techno-house duo consisting of DJ Kurt and Weili. Together as Clash The Disko Kids, they have been formidable on the dance floors as Singapore’s most popular electronic group. With over 15 years turntable experience between them, and a blatant disregard for music genres, they are known for incorporating a strong rock influence into their sets and image.
A CTDK set is like one big lesson in the history of electronic music in one night! You can only expect a mural of sounds when CTDK go behind the decks. Out of nowhere, the duo seemed to have emerged out of the concrete jungle and reinvented the clubbing landscape in Singapore, putting their own sick twists towards music such as adding samples, accapellas and sound fx to their DJ sets and just about everything around it to put smiles on the clubbers’ faces and hands in the air. The result is something really quite exciting and definitely very refreshing!
