    It is almost there, Club Transmediale! With a smashing line-up featuring artist such as Joker, Funckarma, Four Tet and 2562 I’m more than sure that it’s gonna be great!

    CTM (club transmediale) is a prominent international festival dedicated to contemporary electronic, digital and experimental music, as well as the diverse range of artistic activities in the context of sound and club culture. Since 1999 it takes place concurrently and cooperatively with the transmediale – international festival for art and digital culture, Berlin.

    CTM’s aim is to present the most outstanding international productions in adventurous, experimental and electronic music and audiovisual performance, as well as to reflect recent artistic and technical developments in panels, screenings and presentations.

    CTM presents projects that experiment with new aesthetic parameters and new forms of cooperation, develop possibilities for informational and economic self-determination, and reflect on the role of contemporary music against the backdrop of technological and social transformations. Now more than ever, music emerges as a laboratory for multiform experiments and as an active agent that allows for new cultural techniques to be tested and proffered to the wider world. CTM puts the focus on direct experience, risk-taking and personal interaction, and thereby emphasizes the situational potential of live performance, the interplay of various media – sound and image, in particular – and candid exchange between sub-cultural and academic initiatives.

    Wonky Wednesday

    Wonky Wednesday is an initiative prompted by the infatigable Charly & Gallus (Antilounge, Dirty Agga Crew, B.A.F,…) in collaboration with our very own DJ Tomlaan (Stripewaves) and the good people of Cafe’ De Vinger in Den Haag.

    It’s gonna be an intensive session – Charly & Gallus, Tomlaan, and other DJ’s will be mixing the deepest, chewiest dubstep with the musical phenomenon officiously tagged “stuiterbeats” by Gallus himself (other sources refer to this as “glitch-hop”, others “experimental hiphop”, yet others as “fidget beats” although the latter is closer to the minimal scene).


    “Stuiterbeats” is an array of techniques for producing asymmetric incomplete measures: the musical result is a downtempo “stuttering” or rather “limping” rhythmic pattern (technically, the beats would have time signatures like 15/16, or 21/16, or worse).

    The decomposition techniques are often applied to hiphop-backbeat-like samples, and I seem to recognize an aesthetic agreement on accentuating the vinyl noise on the beats.

    These techniques are being pioneered by artists such as Flying Lotus, Slugabed, Hudson Mohawke, Dorian Concept, Joker, and to some extent, historically, on some Richard Devine experimental tracks [could someone fill me on this one please?]

     
  • "Radical" Dutchstep Producers Showcase - a review

    I believe we deserve to mention Nika and Myrkur for organizing yet another successful edition of their Radical dubstep party.
    Hosted regularly at OT301, perhaps the seminal squat of Amsterdam (and one of the last if current legislation plans do not meet resistance from the public), the last edition of this party featured an extensive showcase of some of the hottest new dubstep produced in Holland at the moment.

    In particular, Radical endorses on a deeper, less hormone-driven, more meditative sound, originally developed by British artist Burial and embraced by many (including Myrkur himself) as the “yin” face of dubstep.
