Chevrolet Spark is world’s first DJ car

29th March 2010 Print

Chevrolet today provides a sneak preview of the world’s first fully functioning DJ car, specially designed and built for the Chevrolet Spark Unscheduled Tour.

The one-of-a-kind DJ car took over a month to be produced and is as much at home in a club as it is on the road. When flipped on its side there is a working platform behind the car for the DJ, with CD decks and a mixer enabling sounds to be mixed from virtually any medium as the wheels act as vinyl turntables when driven with 1000 watt DC motors.

Chevrolet has teamed up with a hand-picked selection of the hottest independent, musical, creative and design talents of the moment to drive a buzz around the launch in London’s Soho. Critically acclaimed band, The Mystery Jets have been named as the feature act and they’ll be giving fans the opportunity to hear their eagerly anticipated third album live before its release in June. Other talent includes the likes of Jack Penate on the decks, as well as cult nail salon WAH Nails hosting their very own ‘nail-car’ where guests will be treated to an exclusive free session from one of the fashion world’s leading fingertip artists.

The Chevrolet Spark Unscheduled Tour will take place in five locations across the UK, with members of the public being able to vote for where they’d like the tour to go to next. Cities to choose from include Birmingham, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle, Brighton, Edinburgh and Bristol with venues ranging from a drained swimming pool and multi-story car park to an old picture house and ferry across the Mersey. A ‘pop up’ gig will take place every two weeks throughout April to June.

Chevrolet has also collaborated with illustrator extraordinaire Jimi Crayon, famed for his global street art and membership of the ATG Crew - one of London’s most respected creative collectives to create a truly unique colour inspired logo for the tour; with Kate Moross, in-house art director at ISO designing a series of light installations which will take centre stage as part of the exclusive music experience.

In addition to the DJ booth, bespoke limited edition Spark headphones have been commissioned and will be up for grabs throughout the tour.
