| B-boy Twist |
Fun-filled, fantasy-finding revellers were stopped in their tracks - astride their hay stacks - as Leed’s Blood Masterz Crew ripped the fields apart and blew the wellies off 2010’s Secret Gardeners!
Recognising the break-beat call of Masterz’ boom-box at the Secret Garden Party, b-boys from every corner crept out of the woodwork and raided the lino. One such b-boy stole the limelight stunning both Masterz and audience with his raw skills. Dancing for the love and not for the glory, he slipped away as surreptitiously as he had arrived. By the time his identity had been established, Lee (Soul Mavericks) had stolen back into the bustling crowd and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
On the 4th and final day dance group Swing Patrol challenged Masterz to a dance-off on the aptly titled “Dance Off” stage.
2-on-2 b-boying routines vs swing couples, b-girls vs swing girls. The b-boys answered Swing Patrol’s charleston, balboa, blues, dips, flips, shuffles and slides with top-rock, battle-rock, footwork, freezes, mills, 90’s and halos.
When the Patrol thought they had the Masterz out-mastered, the breakers showed them the door. As the DJ switched between old-school breaks and electro swing, Masterz propositioned and appropriated swing partners. Patrolling the beat . . . the Patrol’s ladies in-tow . . . the audience broke into rapturous applause and standing ovation.
As the sun set on an epic four days the b-boys wandered the campsites and arenas searching for jams. The music, having ended for Sunday, left the Secret Gardeners at a loss for entertainment.
Leading the party, Masterz danced to the beat of the drumming circles and took the chants of the crowd with them wherever they went. Throughout the night they moved discreetly from jam to jam spreading their vibe.
