# Wolfram’s Travels: DJing for a real Sir
The time is nearly upon us. This week [**Electronic Beats Festival
Vienna**][1] will finally take place and bring the dopeness. Well, at
least if you're amongst the lucky ones that have a ticket. For all the
others: don't be sad, there'll be comprehensive follow-up coverage and
we'll have **Wolfram**, who will be performing that night, on hand to
tell you his version of events. But before all that, time to get stuck
into part three of his *Travels* series. Over to him.
While the first two stories took place [so long ago][2] that I could
hardly remember any details, this week's tale is about a gig that
happened just four weeks ago. I still can't tell you much about it
because I signed a contract stating that I'd keep my lips tightly sealed
as to the details. But let's start at the beginning, shall we?
During my time in New York I met not only all kinds of **DFA** artists,
but also their favorite photographer, [**Ruvan Wijesooriya**][3]. He's
the guy who followed **James Murphy** and his band for over seven years
and took loads of pictures---all of which resulted in a photo anthology
entitled LCD that is set for release in December. He must have
grown fond of my Corinthian accent, my curly hair or maybe he just liked
my musical style, whatever it may have been, the important thing is that
he referred me along with two other DJs to a wedding planner. As you
might have guessed, they chose me. I'm not allowed to give you any more
details about that wedding, except that the celebrations took place at
**Sir Richard Branson**'s villa in Morocco. So take another look at the
picture above and try to imagine for yourself what happened that night.
And maybe, if we see each other at the festival, I'll give you a detail
or two and curb your wild imaginations.
