Halloween is the only time you can be Batman. And you should always want to be Batman. But also, candy, and more costumes, and parties and and more candy. In conclusion, Halloween is the most excellent of all nights even if you're recycling that school girl costume you've worn for the past seven years in a row. Here's our roundup of all things Halloween happening around our fair nation. Something wicked this way comes... Thursday 29th
Witchcraft Vol. 2 @ Omar Khayyam Boat

DJ Medoz is known as Egypt’s best urban eclectic DJ. Long before the term eclectic even existed, Medoz was already spinning a unique mix of house, hip-hop and R&B Music. A career that originated at the legendary Kuala Lumpur Club Zouk rapidly developed into a trendsetting endeavour at parties and festivals throughout the world.
As a result of the increasing attention for Urban, DJ Medoz’ style is now more popular than ever. His gigs vary from residencies at leading club nights such as Swagga, Hits Mania and Jam of the prestigious Pacha Sharm El Sheikh to the hottest Urban nights and festivals in the whole of Egypt. Add to that the countless performances abroad, and DJ Medoz is a name to reckon with. Spinning the decks will also be DJs Aguizi & Fahim (winners of student DJ 2013). The choice of DJs was mainly based on changing the vibe of the 'khabooti' and mainstreamed style of music that has been recently heard all around Egypt's clubs.
