RANDA & THE SOUL KINGDOM

SOUL DELICIOUS
Established in 2014, Soul Delicious is a street dance crew originally formed as a Popping crew. Since then all members have travelled nationally and internationally in efforts to grow as dancers and connect with the rest of the Australian and international street dance communities. In recent years the crew has invited dancers representing other street dance styles including Waacking and Locking. Today Soul Delicious are proud to represent authentic street dance by competing in battles, teaching and showcasing throughout Perth. The ladies of Soul Delicious PJ, Renee and Rin will be showcasing Popping, Waacking and Locking
Sacha Alexiou moved to Boorloo from Meanjin two years ago and purveys a nostalgic yet fresh sound. He learnt about dance music as a regular at Black Bear Lodge (a foundation in Meanjin's dance scene inspired by Mancuso's, The Loft) and brought this passion into becoming a disc-jockey.
