Slaying Dancefloors at Will .Count Zer0.

Well, I suppose I can file this under “there is no such thing as bad publicity”:

promotional video featuring footage of me (at 1:20ish) recorded during my set at this past weekend’s “Revive” event by questionably named Boombatti Productions.

I’m impatiently awaiting the release of Greg Gow’s “The Bridge” on (allegedly revived) Transmat. Haven’t been able to find any release date except a rumoured August 18th, which has come and gone. I don’t think I’ve been this excited for an unreleased record in, well, over a decade.

Today I’ve got a couple tracks for you that I’ve been trying to identify for some time.  The first is a cut off Feelgood’s side of the classic Fever: Time to Get Ill Volume 6 mixtape circa 1996.  It’s the intro, in fact, and you can download it here

The second track is from a live set performed somewhere in Brooklyn by Bang Goes and Styro 2000 at some point in the past three years, I think. The track is ridiculously catchy, and features several different voice synthesizer versions of the phrase “jump rope”. It’s infectious, and you can grab it here or listen to this mix where it gets played at around 10:45 min in. That’s Galoppierende Zuversicht, by the way, aka Bang Goes and Styro 2000, playing in Brooklyn in 2006, the other parts of that set and many other mixes are available at the Wolf+Lamb archive. The track in question always makes me think of Grooveyard’s “Watch Me Now” or something by Ken Ishii. And I could swear the other vocal sample says “Gez Varley”, but I really don’t think it’s a G-Man track. So, help a brother out?

Please feel free to reblog this everywhere you can so that I can make some used record dealer happy.

Has anybody seen this go round of Bill Laswell’s ambient dub supergroup? musichallofwilliamsburg.com/event/3176 If Jah Wobble were with them I’d be THERE, but as it stands I’m hesitating. But with so many virtuousos I feel like I  should maybe not miss it?  Or is it mere sonic masturbation?  Anybody know what kind of material (pun not intended) they’re covering?

Apparently I am playing rave classics at this party type thing in Brooklyn in a few weeks.

It promises to be a lot of fun!  If yunz are in the city that weekend, stop out, I will throw a record on for you.

The promoters tweaked my bio a bit, but otherwise they’re standup folks.  I look forward to being a part of Revive and throwing down a killer set.
