No chill out and downbeat this evening at Rust Nightclub

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

Do you wanna party with the bonaparte?
Those were the words from the horses mouth when he entered the stage on Rust Nightclub last saturday night.
Most of them wearing masks of different kinds and yes… one of them with horse mask that made him look really funny.
The danish music festival Wundergrund encouraged 8 different people from the danish art music scene to curate different concerts around town, and this was one of them.
Bonaparte is a berlin punk/rock/electro circus act centered around partying on stage non stop.
Several dancers that also wanders around the audience dressed like like …. something weird but great looking.
One lead singer also plays the main guitar riffs and he drives the band together with the drummer and the bass player, whose face was never to be seen for the mask he was wearing.
Really energetic and fun setup.
Bonaparte originate from Berlins underground, and are now constantly touring the world with their punk rock electro circu. If you get a chance, go and see them  -  you have never seen anything like it before.

For the fans of naked flesh, I can reveal that the very well equipped blond girl who constantly changes dresses, at the end of the show actually pours a bowl of milk over her entire almost naked body – a swell sight i.

Anyway, I encourage everybody to go and see this show – its very effective. In fact its so efffective that I dont remmeber too much about the actual songs, other that they worked very well in the context and they made people jump up and down

I will locate some pics from the concert one of these days.

New downbeat from Dunkelbunt out on Poets Club Records

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Kebab Connection (Kedub by [dunkelbunt])„Kebab Connection“ is [dunkelbunt]´s exclusive contribution for his just recently released “Sun Dub“-compilation on Poets Club Records. The title “Kebab Connection“ is inspired by the theme of the German movie and pure Balkan-Dancehall madness, featuring Ragga MC Cloud Tissa on vocals.

The package includes [dunkelbunt]´s own „Kedub“-remix that turns the song into a more sophisticated track, a „folkstep“-remix by Serbian laptop wizards Shazalakazoo and some more mixes by Hungarian top notch DJ´s Savages y Suefo and UK´s finest Forty Thieves Orkestar.

[dunkelbunt] aka Ulf Lindemann is an electronic music producer from Hamburg, Germany, who emigrated Vienna, where he works as a composer, DJ, radio editor and mixer of spices.
The name [dunkelbunt] stands for diversity and the restless and ongoing search for undiscovered musical fusions. He combines Balkan, Swing and Oriental influences with Dub, Reggae, Dancehall and Club music. Being a gifted piano player himself, he redevelops his own distinctive style and musical sense with every musical influence and every ethnic group that he comes across.

[dunkelbunt]´s list of cooperations with bands and musicians seems to be just as extensive as the musical waters he crosses. His albums „Morgenlandfahrt“ (Chat Chapeau) und „Raindrops And Elephants“ (Piranha) reflects the numerous co-operations and remixes for artists as various as Waldeck, Watcha Clan, FanfareCiocarlia, The Cat Empire, Harry Stojka, 17 Hippies and Amsterdam Klezmer Band enriching many many tracks of his albums.
[dunkelbunt] is on a continuous musical travel around the world: San Francisco, Istanbul, Melbourne, London, Budapest, Capetown – just a choice of the many stops on his never-ending tour of the past few years.

This is a truly great release and I can highly recommend it. Nice for a chill out time in the hammock.

New chill out downbeat Track from Ganga

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

I think I was too quick the other day when I wrote about a new track that I finished. That wasnt here by the way…hm. On myspace…But anyway.
Its one of the tracks I was working on in New York a few weeks back.
Its finally coming together, and I thought I did it… but no. After some days break, and some other ears, I decided to work on some more details, all smalln stuff that needed fixing.
Helle Chirholm sings on this track, and does a beautiful job combining english lyrics with also some arabic sentences. Making it all work together beautifully.
Gbatokai Dakinah put down a nice bass – right on the actual corner of 1st avenue and E 9th street on that rainy afternoon.
Really nice bass playing.
Now its just gonna take me a few days to finish this, and then I will put it up for listening.
I will also soon have a new give away track for those who signed up for my newsletter.

New funky downbeat out on Poets Club Records

Wednesday, November 4th, 2009

ckp209_cover_72dpiWinter is creeping in on Copenhagen and I tug in under my blankets with my computer and listen to some new material from Poets Club Records. The active little german label just south of the border – way south of the border actually. Its Oliver Kieser now out with his solo project “Egotrip”.
Some may know Oliver Kieser from the 90s where he recorded on G-Stone Recordings (Kieser.Velten was his project) and developed his unique deep and groovey sound.
This release is called “Shanty Boogie” and consists of the original track “Shanty Boogie” and two remixes.
One dubby house mix by Razoof and Emanuel and the other one by fellow funk brotheres Quincy Joints (one half of Geriba with releases on Funk Weapons and Citrona records).
All very funky stuff – almost old school qualities in some of these funky riffs, if you are in to this kind of funky keys and old school synts and the occasional vocal drops.
Nice release.
