Art & Cash

Facing crisis and tormented by the sorrows of monetary depletion there was only one solution for the House of Modeselektor. All capital must go! And fast! Property funds crashing like Windows 2000, investing in gold too 80s and the rights to Jacko's portfolio too expensive. Only one answer remained: Art. Versed on the international art trade floor it was easy for them to win over two sought-after art dealers; to seal the deal and to go on a shopping spree.

"Art & Cash" is the shocking "behind the scenes" documentary of that German art campaign. In the process a scandal was revealed that is shaking experts to this day. For years and under the watchful eyes of millions did the "Fantastic Nobodies" - exceptionally gifted art counterfeiters and weirdos from Brooklyn - manage to sell themselves as renowned works of art, thus creating inexplicable damage... .The short film was directed by Pfadfinderei and performed by Fantastic Nobodies.

Ever since playing a few weeks ago on gate night I have been itching to absolve my embarrassment for not sticking to my guns which (in my opinion) resulted in a lackluster night. (-my excuse is-) The day of the show I bought a new 8 gig LaCie storage key and decided to go buck wild filling it when all I needed was a select few gems. (Pic - Isa Genzken) .

Golden Strings by ROCKETS

We we're honored when D.I.S.C.O. TEXAS sent us this one today. They have what we need here at the house of voules in the land of randomness. With a roster with the likes of Moulinex, Xinobi, Flip and Rockets you can be certain that they will whisk you away to disco heaven long into the morning hours if you ever have any time to travel to Lisbon which is the labels original home. I thought Thursdays were pretty good in Winnipeg with the Lo Pub and all but sufficed to say I wish I lived in Lisboa where I could attend the TITAN THURSDAYS @ Lux Frágil. They start at 11:00 PM and go till 6:00 AM.

Now that's a show folks.

By far, the best nightclub in Lisbon. Some even go as far as saying as the best in Europe. Co-owned by John Malkovich, Lux has served as host for some of the best gigs in Lisbon. I could start naming all the great artists who have been here, but the list would be endless. The club is divided in two floors. The top floor, filled with very artistic decor, serves (depending on the night) lounge, hip hop or electro sounds throughout the night. The bottom floor has more of an aggressive feel to it, tribal house, techno, electro or drum and bass are regulars here. Every now and again, Lux also serves as venue for smaller gigs for jazz, folk, acoustic or other musical genres. Watch out for the giant giraffe! :) .

Butyreux Bien

French named Italian Producer Butyreux sliced and diced the Phonat insta classic 'Set Me Free' with a long build and a strong disco house influence.

myspacebio
It is pronounced “butirò” and it means buttery in French. The reason he has chosen this name is known only to him, but we can say for sure that France, musically speaking, is much more closer to him than Italy. Michele, 23 year old as we speak, lived his adolescence influenced by the house music from the beginning of the new century. Very early he entered the music world, both as a dj and a producer and acclaimed his place in the new electronic scene that was being formed in Italy. His style could be defined as a mixture of electro and house highly contaminated with samples and vocals derived mostly from dance music made in the last thirty years but his sources deepen daily. In the past two years he produced and remixed at least twenty tracks, became a resident of Trash-Dance parties and performed along artists such as The Bloody Beetroots, Shinichi Osawa, Boys Noize, MSTRKRFT, Simian Mobile Disco, Danger, Guns'n'Bombs, Subsonica etc. .

Myd/Noria

After blowing my hat off with 'Train To Bamako' from the Teki/Orgasmic mix it's France's Myd who is back with more afro beat heat via the Club Cheval outfit. Punchy and skipping along at a meth pace with interlocking percussion and synth work. Lots to think about in this simply constructed house number. If you like Myd also check out the the DJ's who playlisted him like Solo and his 'Minimood' EP as well as Douster's 'Triassic' EP on ZZK. (Illustration-Julian Callos).

Boys Noize/NYC/Halloween

One half of the voulesrandom crew is blessed this hallows eve and one is not. Voules in New York today to have a little visit with our favorite city on earth and it just so happens that he'll be catching Boys Noize at the Fixed party. So as I sit in my usual spot behind my screen he will be aurally assaulted by the German. I thought I'd throw in some classic Boys Noize records here with these collabos.

Harvard Bass/Drop The Lime

I want to post as many diverse sounds as possible on this page...is it my fault that Harvard Bass just happens to embody so many styles. A true tech house chameleon.

DL : Drop The Lime - Set Me Free (Harvard Bass remix) .

Les Judas New Gillettes

New Judas is a label from Finland that you have all become familiar with heat from Mixhell, Pets On Prozac, and now with Les Gillettes who hail from southern Britain. A relatively new one here released a fortnight ago and as you all know I have never been a chart topper or hype machine sweetheart. New tracks still have to be dope and this is. Today we got 'Pompeii' the title track and its in the vein of some of my favorite labels right now which I will not list cuz you all know who they are by what I post and emphasize. 'R U From London' is a club dreamer track mixed in a dub style and broken up by random shotguns cocking and spacey reverb. This song is much more accessible than the title track which Obi Blanche kills with his D.I.M./ritchie hawtin overhaul. Mikix the Cat is rounding out the group and its a good thing he is cuz hes also pissed off and ready to show just how much with this one. Buy it at BEATPORT and JUNO

Something to Finish

Pierce (Dominic Fabrig) is a self-proclaimed bedroom producer whose tracks have been repped by Canada's finest. It is the excitement of hearing his tracks played at his favorite spots that keeps Fabrig working hard. “I want to continue to be a part of the conversation when it comes to electronic music and the whole scene associated with it. When you talk to someone who gets excited about a specific beat, or a random breakdown or something, it feels pretty good.” Fabrig is looking to release an EP this summer based on some of his older influences, and new inspiration. “There’s a lot of amazing stuff being made right now, and some stuff is tired. I want to make good songs that don’t really have to sound new or old. It’s less stressful and more interesting.” .

Mini Sunday Post

Many gems to get to for the weekly wrap list starting off with BNR prodigy Strip Steve laying waste to some Das Glow on the 'Lite Brite' EP. The young Frenchman builds a slow burner out of squelchy disco and thick chunky 'Homework'esque lines. LCD look out.. (Photos: Thomas Prior)

DL : Das Glow - Lite Brite (Strip Steve remix)


Switching gears to Turbo recording artist Jori Hulkkonen with and his full length album entitled 'Man On Earth'. 'Boying In The Smokeroom' is dark experiment of heavy synths and smooth textured loops. Powerful without being overpowering..

DL : Jori Hulkkonen - Boying in the Smokeroom


More Turbo here that could act as polar opposite to the sounds of Jori. The Proxy's track 'Who Are You' is simply a crash and boom affair that I would fear to play live whereas the cut '8000' is an interesting play on East Indian themes with Sitars and that Russian skull crushing production.

DL : The Proxy - 8000 (Original mix)


Something new here leaning more towards the sunny and smooth side of the house game is Pasquale Maassen and Remute. Deep warbling underwater disco line with a intelligent bump.

DL : Pasquale Maassen - Hard Rhythm (Remute remix)


More heartfelt head banging house here with Dutchman Joris Voorn and a track that surfaced a few months ago and has been burning up the Beatport charts. 'We're All Clean' has a great disco guitar laying over the preachings of a guy that sounds like the intro track 'Wolves' on the Dead Prez debut album. All an all eerie and funky at the same time.

Bring on the Chromeo Remixes

As you probably all know Chromeo has been one of the most remixed artists in blog land. Siriusmo got his hands on their new single 'Night by Night' and took it a step further with a nice little breakdown at the end. This remix is the first of many I'm sure. Enjoy!.
