crazy larry AIRPOD podcast


This set was recorded at the announcement party for the EXTRACTION US compilation at Bar 13 in September. Larry plays a top-groovy set in between a succession of Soul Clap and Tanner Ross tags. We are getting closer to Extraction’s release with gigs all over the Northern American continent. The 28th of November 2008 Elon, Tanner Ross and Soul Clap will be taking over Miami - December 5th Soul Clap will be paying a visit to Crazy Larry in Denver and a week after in San Francisco with Alland Byallo and J.Phlip at the End Up’s Phonic night. Larry will also be opening for Cassy in Miami on the Saturday 29th November… Unmissable. As you start listening to the mix, here is more info on the unique one they call Crazy Larry: With no rave scene and virtually no radio support in most American markets, kids like Crazy Larry were forced to discover the wonders of dance music on their own accord. Hailing from Denver, Colorado, Larry Ursini is a young talent that has no fear when it comes to new technology and embraces it fully. Upon graduating from high school Larry enrolled in the Audio Engineering program at CU Denver. He also started doing his own Live PA in January of 2006, debuting in NYC for his closest friend in dance music, Taimur Agha. The live performance incorporates vintage drum machines; live home made plug-ins, and even the Nintendo Wii! Larry also teamed up with Pier Bucci while he was in town for a gig, and they subsequently released a joint EP under the Glacier moniker for Wagon Repair. If you’re after quality rather than chart topping hits, you’ll definitely want to give Crazy Larry a listen. AIRDROP will be pressing a couple of Larry’s track in 2009. Prepare for take off…

stewart walker in Nashville

cheap SUNGLASSES vs RA


There will be some support from the local End Up residents before 12pm and after 8pm.
Also, Taimur will be headlining the End Up on Thursday night, so if you like what you hear, make sure you come check him out there for a second dose of amazing music.
We also ask that if you come before noon, please ask for your sunglasses so that the End Up knows that your there for Âme/Dixon.
RA has added one more date to our upcoming mini-tour of the United States with Dixon and Kristian from Âme. In collaboration with the Cheap Sunglasses crew, RA will be bringing the two DJs to San Francisco's famed End Up club. The Bay area club is so named because that's where you inevitably "end up" at the end of the night—or later—and that's exactly what Dixon and Kristian will be doing, as they're scheduled to play late into Saturday night in Los Angeles before heading to San Fran for this shindig which begins at noon and ends at 8 PM.
Holding down things in those early hours before the main attractions get there will be the Cheap Sunglassesguys: New York's Taimur Agha and Colorado's Crazy Larry. The duo have been throwing parties for less than a year around American electronic music festivals (WMC, DEMF, Decibel, Minitek), and this will be the first time that they've run an event without the benefit of that built-in audience. With Dixon and Kristian set to headline, we think that won't be much of a problem at all. The only question that we have? With cheap sunglasses, temporary tattoos, excuses to call off at work and earplugs all in the past, what's going to be the party favor this time?

berlin calling

Directed by Hanes Stoehr and starring Paul Kalkbrenner as DJ icarus. Berlin Calling is a melodramatic tragic comedy set in the world’s most recognizable and bustling hub of dance music activity today. would love to see this film as it has garnered a very positive reaction from the toronto filim fest and the few premeirs around europe. the locarno premeir featured a packed outdoor town square viewing in which the crowd was so excited, kalkbrenner broke out his laptop and performed after the film ended and got the crowd going even more. more importanty the soundtrack is also composed by kalkbrenner and has a very nice feel from start to finnish. there are quite a few noteworthy tracks withing the soundtrack, including my favorite Square 1. check out the soundtrack at beatport.
can't wait for this to either come to a theater near me or get a dvd copy once released.

interview with hanes stoehr on beatportal

deadbeat artist album : Roots and WIre on wagon repair


Deadbeat is scott monteith, a long time montrealer and recent berlin ex-pat who has been releasing his own special blend of dub laden, minimal electronics since 2000, for labels such as cynosure, musique risquée, scape, and spectral to name but a few. his work has been met with consistent critical acclaim from the industry’s leading publications, and drawn regular performance invitations for some of the world’s most respected festivals and clubs, including barcelona’s sonar, berlin’s transmediale, and montreal’s mutek alongside panorama bar, fabric and the like. his eagerly anticipated new album sees him continue his relationship with kindred spirits wagon repair in his own inimitable techno/dub/dancehall/house style. those familiar with deadbeat’s last album, which felt much more a collection of tracks, will be immediately struck by roots and wire’s larger cohesive narrative arc after thex first listen. the album is aesthetically informed by his longterm collaborative friendship with robert henke (monolake), the creative relationship with wagon repair, the close proximity of his fellow artists in berlin and the opportunity to collaborate with paul st hilaire (tikiman). it is no surprise that an album of such vast scope be largely inspired by the artist’s own transition from montreal based producer releasing on berlin label ~scape for 5 years, to berlin based producer releasing on a canadian label. an uncanny logic is present throughout, weaving a fluid narrative from disparate influences and styles. opener ‘rise again’ is the first of two collaborations with tikiman, whose beautiful rasta lament is supported by a huge bass sound. in recording all of the virtual instruments through mic’d speakers as one would do with a real band, he’s given the track a distinctly ‘live’ feel that is a thematic element of all the tracks on the album. the sense of space and breathing room tone this recording process produces also makes the bass sound even larger than it already is.

Jay Haze xlr8 podcast


He owns two labels and produces dance music under several different monikers, so it's no surprise that Berlin-based, American expat Jay Haze should have an extensive back catalog of tracks. He recently took some time to comb through his repertoire and compile Keep Your Third Eye Open exclusively for XLR8R, and originality rules on this mix.
"In house and techno, the formula is way too apparent and extremely overused," Jay said in an interview earlier this year. "The music has become predictable and as a result, boring."
Not so here. The 13 gems on this mix–all unreleased tracks and versions–prove that, when in the studio, Jay considers his musical compositions carefully, playing with tempos, twisting up synths and pianos, and, in short, breathing badly needed fresh air back into house and techno.
His latest album, Love & Beyond will hit U.S. stores on June 10 via TuningSpork Records. If this mix got you so excited you can't wait five more days, get the digital version at Beatport now.
Keep Your Third Eye Open Tracklisting
1. Fuckpony "Sensual Depravation"
2. Jay Haze "Keep Your Third Eye Open"
3. Jay Haze "Soul in a Bottle feat. Big Bully & Sven VT (2008 mix)"
4. Jay Haze "Muttersprache"
5. Fuckpony "Gigglepeas"
6. Jay Haze "Up for Grabs"
7. Sub Version "Space Trek"

lee curtiss - live from the dungeon


A Western Michigan native and long-time Detroit resident, Lee Curtiss has been forging his uniquely backwoods, yet avant-garde and primal brand of deep and twisted dance music since the late 1990’s. A constantly changing and ever-eager student to his craft, Lee’s finger has been pressed upon, if not thrust into, the throbbing aorta of underground dance music for quite some time – even if his production skills and brain-demolishing live PA have only recently begun to garner the attention of techno and house music’s elite. Growing up between the two poles of Chicago and Detroit organized Lee’s approach to production squarely between the grooving, deep house sounds of artists like Derrick Carter, and the mindfreaking work of techno producers such as Ricardo Villalobos, Zip (aka Dimbiman), Matthew Dear and Richie Hawtin. Over the past year Lee has begun to tour extensively in America and Europe, notoriously adhering to a 'fuck trends, fuck dance music, and fuck me' approach to producing and performing that only the strongest of stomachs and most iron-clad of minds can withstand. His music’s dark, sexy, and uncompromising singularity have earned him coveted performance slots at the 2007 DEMF and Mutek festivals, preludes to his upcoming summer move to Europe and a new commitment to touring and producing. Curtiss was recently named by Matthew Dear as one of they key figures of emerging talent in URB magazine’s next 100, but Lee would rather you quit reading this bio and either book him, buy his record, or come see him melt you and your friends faces at a club near you.
lee curtiss - the death of me (live pa) - detroit 2005
lee curtiss's first live set in detroit from 2005. this set is a classic already and is filled with twisted funk and dark beats. this link will not be active permanently so get it while it's up. oh, and don't ask for the setlist, this is a live PA, all orig curtiss.

INSIDEOUT (Clink Recordings, NYC)

Grant Aaron, aka Insideout, is co-owner of and recording artist on Clink Recordings. Grant began DJing in 1997, mainly influenced by the striped down minimal sounds of Daniel Bell,Plastikman and Mike Ink. It didn't take long for those influences to persuade him to move from behind the decks to the studio. His first original sounds came in the form of Ambient and Experimental with a full length album titled, Embrace. This was released on his co-created multimedia net label, Lifeform Project, which he started with several producers from his hometown of Atlanta, but that was just the beginning. With the International response and success of the net label, Grant realized his personal longing to progress his musical ideas even further. He relocated to Brooklyn, New York, and teamed up with close friend, DJ and producer, Camea. Clink Recordings was born in the Fall of 2005. They have since released a catalogue of very successful solo and collaborative EP's from NY artists Afternoon Coffee Boys, Tim Xavier, Tony Rohr, Camea, Insideout, Ambivalent and Elon. His collaborative debut with Camea, Nothing Shocking/Azimuth (Clink 002), was a hit and played by artists such as Richie Hawtin, Magda and Adam Beyer. As a solo artist, Grant's production combines the influences of modern minimal techno and the basic fundamentals of this genre: intricate percussive programming, dark atmospherics and an irresistible cavernous bounce. In recent years, Grant has meticulously created a following and demand for his deep, conceptually minimal DJ sets. He rotates regular gigs in South America, North America and Europe, and is a New York after-hours favorite. An avid music collector, Grant is consistent and explores the new trends and sounds within this genre, and it is guaranteed he will always have the latest and greatest ideas embedded within his performances. His live and dj shows are an array of influences and keep the floor moving from start to finish. BYOB $5 and Ladies FREE Before 10 The Hanger

bruno pronsato interview



i was lucky enough to catch bruno pronsato perform at oslo for the temporary tattoo party at demf this year. the party on a whole had an amazing vibe, but I really got a kick out of bruno's set which was the highlight of the evening for me. caught up with bruno before he heads back to europe for upcoming gigs and he was nice enough to answer a few questions for the berlin readers. also, see below for a live performance from harry klein from september 2006. we will post an updated live performance from bruno soon in another post so check back on regular and enjoy the interview !



favorite venue worldwide and most up for it crowd you have encountered lately?


that's a tough one. i'm pretty sure this is gonna be incredibly cliché, but i would have to say panorama bar - mainly because it's the venue i have played more constantly than any other. you can always count on a great crowd and freak show there.


american techno scene vs your experiences oveseas?


it's hard to compare the two. in the u.s. it's more like a small scene - similar to the days when i was traveling around in punk bands. in the u.s., you almost know everyone at every show. it's small and unique, and for the most part, people are amazing. i have very close friends in just about every city i play in the u.s. - like really close people, inspirational people...Europe is entirely different. it's very clubby there. some places are commercial, some places are homey and awesome. i like both, they both have their appeal


top 5 fav producers - any new talents you have discovered in your world travels?


in no particular order.
Sammy Dee
Herbert
Caro aka Randy Jones
Ricardo Villalobos
Thomas Melchior



in the studio are you a hardware or software producer, if hardware do you have a favorite instrument ?



a little of both, really...I am very 'of the moment' sometimes i'm crazy about max/msp other times i want to do everything on my jomox 888. right now i am in machine mode. sammy dee and i are using a lot of machines of live (his idea) and from that i've sort of got back into really using machines again. he and i are always talking about the next machine for our live - studio studio set up. this year will probably be more machine for me. who knows about next year.



you have a background in music way beyond just the types of tunes you are slinging in the clubs.....what is your favorite genre outside of techno and why? i read last year you were on a classical bing, are you still into classical and do you feel like it has shaped or influenced any of your dance productions/sets?




well i have been a classical music fan for a while now. i go thru phases where it's all i listen to. at the moment tho, i am really into early 90s shoegaze stuff, and indie rock. but i think the phase has just about run it's course. i just spent the entire morning listening to Janacek's Along An Overgrown Path. A piece i'm really starting to get my head around. As far as inspiring me, i think it does in a very subtle way. I'm not dividing my music up into movements, but i am thinking about ways to create and evolve themes maybe. i don't want to make it sound complicated, cuz that is far from what i believe i am capable of, but let's just say it pushes me a little more than anything - pushing ideas on how to compose...in house music, or whatever.



best vacation you ever had?


a trip to florence a few months back - getting fat on food from tuscany is about as good as it gets.



you have a very unique style with your productions which is a way that your music stands out from so many of the cookie cutter tracks that are out there now. the loose, organic, gritty feel that you give the tracks is what brings them to life from the digital mire, what are some of the ways you insure that your tracks don't end up sounding overly digital and polished, and how much of that is planned vs. in the moment discovery?



I think my approach is very simple, and it's something that i say a lot. Keep it sexy. No matter what the circumstance is, it's got to be sexy. this is music for the night. I'm more of the lover type and less the vampire. the vampire goes dark and spooky, i kind of want to keep it sexy. when things are clean and overproduced it just sounds sounds like another club product. I think sexiness keeps more of the FEEL and less of the quantize, so it just comes out that way. for me it's not a production 'style', but more of something that just comes out because of a standard that i have set for myself. altho, it would be nice to have a 'sexify' button in logic, or on one of these machines ;)



do you have any projects we can be on the lookout for?



yes. i have a new 2 track ep coming out on Hello?Repeat in August called, 'Where'd You Learn To Kiss That Way.' Also, Sammy Dee and I, under the moniker Half Hawaii, have a track coming out on a compilation on the 'Diamonds And Pearls' label from Berlin called, "Emperors of Venus." Sammy and I are also working on an album that we hope to finish up my Dec/Jan...



before you leave for any of your trips in europe is there a food you try and get your hands on before you leave that you know is unavailable over the pond?



I try to eat AS MUCH mexican food as i can while i am the US. it just does not exist in any palpable form in europe. I am currently in Austin visiting my brother and I think we are just eating as much as possible, getting totally fat. I'm back in Berlin july 3...a few more days to fatten up ;)


Thanks,
B


thank you bruno !!

rocket surgery ep : martin brothers - dirtybird

 
more rib breaking bass madness from christian and justin. the martin brothers, along with a group of talented producers and dj's including mr. crenshaw, worthy, tanner ross and the like comprise the inner workings of the label dirtybird.  this will be number 18 for dirtyybird and will surely rock dancefloors worldwide as I have witnessed first hand in london last month.  heard heidie drop this track at aquarium at the get physical late night, and it did a number on the floor there.  check the vid below - sorry it's sideways but you will get the idea.  this ep will drive you to some serious ass shaking.   it is out on vinyl but I have not heard of the digital release yet......stay tuned.  my favorite cut is Dum, it is full of bumpy flavor and brain twisting grooves.  the ep also includes a very funny acapella tool that would add a little kooky fun flavor to any set.

Supertight is a superfunky hynotic techno monster taking the listener on an onward journey through chrod driven old school techno with all the modern influences necessary. minimal doesnt seem to be the right word as this tune is made up by over 50 single tracks but everything is very on point and the rhythm keeps developing and changing all through the track still trying to focus on the hynotizing moment and the groove. The rhythm kinda hypnotizes the listener until a little melody enlightens the whole track and keeps it in your head for hours.

oliver's new release !!!

berlin's very own oliver dodd(acacja/xylophone jones/blackvans/addon) first appeared on addon06 and returns with a timely ep of analog rhythms and head tripping movements. hailing from nashville dodd creates a sound all his own between the influences of detroit techno and euro minimal shifts. stark, deep and pulsing best describe this 4 track ep. 'elevators and escalators' is the title cut which will flip you up and down. a sure cut that is already in the hands of hawtin, drives with 808 beats, falling synths and rising plucks. an epic dj tool if there ever was. let it ride and play tricks. the rest of the ep is rounded out with dance floor cuts for mind and body. enjoy.
