Beast is partial to a Performer or 2 – whilst his ancient roots dictate
a particular fondness for enslaved performers, he realises that 3000 years have
passed and that he can no longer keep them on chains for his viewing pleasure.
However, when The Beast’s attention was drawn to the beautiful Amy Darling he
got decidedly twitchy. Watch her in action here:
Amy will be bringing the hooping love to Beast’s May 13th party
at The Office, Deep Pit Road, Bristol BS5 7AW and Beast was keen to find out
more about what hooping is all about and how she got into it. Whilst hula
hooping of sorts has been around in different guises throughout history, it’s
only been as early back as the 90’s where colourful displays have started to
mesmerise modern day crowds.
Amy tells Beast that she has been hooping for just over a year. She got
hoop hooked after one of her circus friends showed her a trick and instantly
fell in love.
“I’m self-taught ever since” she tells Beast and goes on to explain how
liberated she feels when she dances with her hoop. “I’ve always been a
performer and I love to dance, so now when I hula hoop I can fully express
myself. It’s a hobby that keeps on giving! Every day I learn a new trick and it
feels amazing!”

Beast is curious to know if others feel as hypnotised as he does when he
watches Amy’s hoop twirl. Amy tells him “Hula hooping is quite a rare talent,
so when people watch me they become entranced. It’s always such a positive
reaction!” – Beast tries his best to snap out of the trance of Amy's colourful
hoop twirling around and around and asks her to tell him what is the most
unusual place where she has hula hooped. “I’ve hula hooped on top of a mountain
in Nepal. All of the locals watched me in awe – I have to say that it was
probably one of the best moments in my life!”
It’s at this point that Beast’s eyes reduce to a pinpoint and one of his
minions has to rouse him out of his enchantment. It takes much to reduce our
great big grizzly beast to this shadow of his former self. Come to the May 13th party
and watch a glittered up Amy twirl and spin her hula in hypnotic techno infused
magic. Glitter, UV murals and horntastic muses will also be involved.
The Beast is very happy that Amy Darling will be joining the crew to add
to the Techno and DnB magic. We can't wait to see her adding her flourish to
what will be one of the top Bristol nights debuting Danish Dynamite Denis
Horvat from Innervisions/Aeon and Afterlife.
