Kölsch DJs Atop Eiffel Tower
Two weeks ago, Kölsch played perhaps one of the most prestigious 'venues' in the world, the iconic Eiffel Tower. Maybe you've already seen it, because the live stream has garnered over a million views, but this epic occasion is something I cannot help but celebrate. Kölsch's majestic music is a fantastic fit for the prodigious piece of Parisian iron. He's crafted a set as strong and steadfast as the tower itself, working through his orchestral opening and title track of his latest album, 1989, to a combination of choir vocals and techno in the midsection. The strings and things continue to tie the whole hour long arc together, as the jazzy grand finale of St. Germain "Rose Rouge" lights both the tower and our passion.
