Adrian Skoda vine din zona dnb-ului deep si complex, for the mind, not for the body. Activeaza astfel de doi ani sub aliasul Kojok, mainly in Timisoara. In 2009 sare in zona deep housului euforic si detaliat si trece la varianta minimala a numelui de scena, adica Kjk. De vina stau producatorii rusi precum Bop, Oak, Data, Implex, Despot, Dissident, si Paralyzah. Un set foarte frumos, dovada sta tracklistul. Soundul se integreaza atat de bine in ambient incat e la fel de odihnitor ca linistea. Kjk – Sparking Space by freshgoodminimal03

6 seturi de la 6 DJ din jurul labelului UQ, responsabili pentru renasterea house-ului newyorkez. Jus-ed, Levon Vincent, Anton Zap, Dj QU, Nina Kraviz si Fred P (aka Black Jazz Consortium). Un house de care te poti indragosti fara sa iti fie teama ca o sa ajungi la petrecere cu Internullo. Mie in general mi-a fost frica de house toata viata, dar gata, oamenii astia m-au convins ca se poate si altfel. I ♥ House.
“For all its talk of the future, dance music has a decidedly classicist bent. Some of the best music currently being released is unabashedly backward-looking, whether it be in the purist strains of Berghain techno, nu-disco’s Balearic fixations or house music’s deep resurgence. The latter is being pushed by artists around the world, but few are doing it with the same sort of vitality—and coherence—as a group of New York-based and -influenced artists centered around Jus-Ed’s Underground Quality label. Some are calling it a New York house renaissance, and based on the incredible music and parties that have been emerging from the likes of Ed, Levon Vincent, Black Jazz Consortium, DJ Qu and Anthony Parasole, it’s hard not to see that something is happening there. And that 2009 may be its tipping point.” RA

UNSOUND PODCAST #3 – Philip Sherburne has many faces: music journalist for the Wire and Pitchfork, producer, DJ, blogger, Unsound comrade. Now he’s drawn entirely on music from Unsound 2009 to create a unique podcast that shifts from a kind of mix tape made with Ableton, to a dubstep DJ set completed by hand. It goes right into the heart of what Unsound is about, giving insight into the fullness and contrasts of this year’s program. There’s everything from Sunn O))) to Omar-S, from Zomby to Stars of the Lid.
Sambata, la Martin, doua legende ale muzicii techno, intr-o petrecere pe care nici nu puteai sa ti-o imaginezi acum ceva vreme. Pe o scena clubbing anchilozata, chestionabil face saltul calitativ si suna regruparea. Viitorul suna din nou bine. Ii dam drumul.
Mixul lui Waka X (jumatate din Makunouchi Bento) curge, mentine energia la un nivel constant, nu abunda in puncte culminante, nici in muzica noua, dar atinge zone obscure (in sensul bun) si aduce la suprafata piese clasice, uitate de vreme. “Eu cred ca in techno trebuie sa existe o doza de mediocritate controlata, de elemente cliseu, care sa fie montate bine si sa duca la cursivitate. Techno nu e nou sau vechi, e cumva timeless. Cel vechi se poate mixa cu cel nou fara sa rupi starea si are acelasi efect, lucru care nu se poate spune si despre alte genuri muzicale. In plus, techno se impune mai mult in set, decat ca piese individuale”, comenteaza artistul. Stie el ce stie, de prin 97-98, de cand canta in trupa de techno “Urban Experience” cu Adrian Chifu si Cristian Savii. Asculta-l, te vei simti familiar cu soundul si poate vei redescoperi bucuria de a da din cap in loop si magia repetitiei de orice fel.
Boru: Abia re-aterizata la Berlin dupa o vara intensa, bucuresteana am primit “comanda” unui mix pentru FGM. M-am simiti onorata si m-am pus pe treaba. Trebuie sa recunosc ca nu imi prea place sa mixez in pijama in sufragerie ci mai degraba in cluburi dar oricum ar fi prejudecata mea: pijama vs clubbing, am dat curs provocarii . Si asta a iesit. Acum las pe altii sa judece daca este “pijama” sau “clubbing”.
