Paul Oakenfold Illuminates Opera

           Every Friday, Opera Nightclub opens its doors to let Atlanta’s sexiest crowd flood in to start the largest weekly dance party in the southeast. This past Friday, January 17th, the crowd outside of 1150 Crescent Avenue began circling the block particularly early, all with guests amped up to hear legendary trance DJ and producer Paul Oakenfold spin the night away.
            The party started early, as a diverse crowd began flooding the famous Opera dance floor. As anticipation built, the number one club in the Southeast’s historic walls began illuminating with reflections of LED lights and sparklers, while guests waved their glow wands in the air.
            Around 12am, Atlanta’s sexiest crowd was ready to get down to Paul Oakenfold’s legendary mixes. Beginning his career in 1980, Paul Oakenfold began mixing songs with iconic superstars such as Bob Marley, and Oakenfold began receiving accolades soon after his early mixes with the legend. Since then, Paul Oakenfold has created over 100 mixes, and sold over 5 million long plays and tracks.
            Since the beginning of his career, Paul Oakenfold’s talent has only progressed, and has attracted millions of fans to his trance records and popular remixes. Atlanta’s sexiest singles gathered on the dance floor, raging to Paul Oakenfold’s famous remix of “We Found Love” by Rhianna ft. Calvin Harris. Finding love in such a sexy crowd, however, was not difficult for the guests who came in solo.
            Guests who got their name on Opera’s exclusive VIP guest list enjoyed dancing to Paul Oakenfold’s tracks from Opera’s two VIP floors, complete with two additional bars, and glass fencing to view the dance floor below. Bachelorette parties also chose to celebrate their night at Atlanta’s number one bachelorette party destination.
            Guests were certainly given the show of a lifetime, as Paul Oakenfold delivered many of his hits, such as his remix of the 2007 hit “Gimme More” by Brittney Spears, giving the crowd a dance party they will never forget.
            As the night came to an end, Paul Oakenfold closed his set with tracks from his 2012 tour with California based band Train, and premiered snippets of songs he wrote for Cher’s newest album “Woman’s World.”
            As Paul Oakenfold says in his remix to “We Found Love,” the [crowd] is alive to the sound and the energy, and we are right where we wana be.”
