16 aprilie / Logistics @ Arenele Romane, Bucuresti

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

LOGISTICS
(Hospital Records | Londra, UK)

Vineri, 16 aprilie 2010
Arenele Romane (Parcul Carol, strada Cutitul de Argint, nr. 26)

Pe 16 aprilie, la Arenele Romane, va avea loc cea de-a doua petrecere de anul acesta marca Arena DNB. Evenimentul va fi gazduit de LOGISTICS, aflat in premiera in Romania si, in acelasi timp, primul artist de la Hospital Records prezent in Bucuresti.

Alaturi de Logistics vor mixa romanii RANCHA, LICH si SUNDANCER. De visuals se vor ocupa AVluv si VEDEM.

Logistics a atras aten?ia in 2004 cu piesa Replay pe care marile nume din scen? (Andy C, Fabio, Grooverider, etc.) au preluat-o aproape imediat în seturile lor. De aici ?i pân? la a semna cu Hospital Records a fost un singur pas, iar in 2006 lanseaza primul album din cariera.

Muzica lui este o combina?ie de liquid funk ?i jungle, devenind astfel un inovator în a lega cele 2 direc?ii în care mergea scena de muzic? de dans. Prin piesele compuse el, artistul a contribuit la crearea sunetului actual din drum and bass, in momentul de fata fiind considerat drept unul din numele care fac istorie în aceast? lume.

Pana in prezent a lansat 3 albume, Now more than ever (2006), Reality Checkpoint (2008) ?i Crash Bang Wallop! (2009) , pentru care a castigat premii precum 1Xtra Best Album. A reusit in doar cativa ani sa isi construiasca propriul stil in miscarea drum and bass, ajungand sa fie foarte apreciat de o armata de fani din intreaga lume si in acelasi timp respectat in randul muzicienilor din scena.

Intrare:

20 lei in avans la Base sau Boarder’s
Base (http://baseteam.ro/default.php?p=contact)

BBQ Mix 02 by xxxy

BBQ Mix 02 by xxxy. Download link.

There’s a place in bass electronica, where the percussive house meets spacious dubtech and dense funky. We’re not sure how this place is called but xxxy happens to be quite at it. His futuristic number ‘Just for me’, canny ‘Reflections’ or the cherry on top of Fabric’s last compilation that ‘Sing With Us’ is – it’s really a whole different level.

BBQ mix mirrors the variety of his own styles, but most of all, it unveils his exceptional ability to merge them all in the most enjoyable way. Mixing the likes of Julio Bashmore, Addison Groove or Poland’s own Sekta, xxxy tops his selection with 2 unpublished gems by the man himself – the opening and closing tracks are both BBQ Exclusives.

We’re proud to present second installment in our mix series, enjoy!

Eskamon (Amon Tobin+Eskmo) – Fine Objects

Tuesday, April 6th, 2010

ESKAMON is the new colaboration project between Amon Tobin (Ninja Tune) & Eskmo (Warp, Planet Mu, Ancestor). “Fine Objects” is the first single by the duo that’s set for release on Eskmo’s own imprint “Ancestor.”

“Fine Objects” is the result of the pair’s unique take on sonic exploration and the manipulation of field recordings. From the onset, the two went out with a recorder, gathering sounds from around the house, yard and studio. Material recorded out of the studio included sounds from a parking garage elevator, a broken harp and the droning tones from a discarded piano. These were combined with more home-centric sounds to form the central theme to the song. With lumbering alien bass and intentionally dry, off-kilter percussion, “Objects” quickly grew into it’s own symbolic representation of taking “odd pieces” and allowing them to grow into something a bit more “refined and ablaze.”

The digital release is set for an April 5th worldwide release date and the pair plans on giving out a free WAV sample pack of the sounds created for the song. (An announcement for a remix competition is in the works.) As an added goodie, a FREE Ableton pack and 10 minute tutorial video was created by ill. Gates utilizing the material from the original pack. Both packs can be found to the left in exchange for an email address.

FACT mix 135: Elijah & Skilliam

Sunday, March 28th, 2010

FACT mix 135: Elijah & Skilliam

One of the most inspirational DJing partnerships in the UK, Elijah made a name for himself as the author of the humble Butterz blog, and one of the people behind Grime Forum, an active part of the grime scene which filled a hole left by Rinse FM and RWD’s declining forums and has since become the key hub for grime news and online controversy. More importantly, it spanned sister sites like Grimepedia, an online information source for a genre long associated with misinformation.

They’ve also done more than almost any grime DJs to date to turn the focus of an MC-dominated genre back to behind the decks. Speaking to Pitchfork recently, Elijah explains that he “loves the MCs”, but “[focuses] on the instrumental side because most MCs still don’t do vocal great productions. I’m not into the hype, because it is a distraction from the music.” Three years ago, Rinse FM’s most hyped shows were the ones with the most MCs – now it’s mostly instrumental marathons with Elijah, Skilliam and their peers JJ, Silencer and more.

What’s key with Elijah and Skilliam’s sets is the sheer amount of digging for new material they do, and their constant willingness to play tunes from new, often relatively unknown grime producers over more fashionable artists. While many grime DJs rely on old classics and modern anthems from the likes of Joker for a reaction, Elijah and Skilliam focus on new producers that they believe in, and a significant part of the recent rise in profile of SRC, Swindle, Royal T, D.O.K. and more can be attributed to them. This year, their Butterz label (Butterz 001, Terror Danjah’s ‘Bipolar is out now) looks set to make that commitment physical.

“”I know there are loads of people in their bedrooms making grime for the love, and are not sure what to do with it because they don’t know any MCs.” Elijah explains in that aforementioned Pitchfork interview. “The DJs haven’t really made themselves easy to get in contact with, nor do they actively seek out and play the new ones they find. Some weeks I listen to nearly 100 new beats people sent [to me].”

It should come as no surprise then, that Elijah and Skilliam’s FACT mix is packed – packed – with exclusives. There’s unreleased and forthcoming material from SRC, Skepta, Joker, Terror Danjah (in fact, there’s a collaboration between the two titled ‘Gully Goon Estate’), Royal T, Starkey.
