Caspa & Rusko, Hi-Tek and Ghislain Poirier
March 13th, 2008
One of the early discoveries on coming to the US has been the wonderful muso-nerd mag Remix. The next discovery was that practically the whole magazine is online. This doesn’t help much for morning reading on the bog, but it does mean I can link to the bits I want to follow up on. Such […]
exberliner - the cream of music journalism
November 29th, 2007
i’m reading less and less on a regular basis, and today some phantom coffee has kicked in and left me running around doing nothing getting increasingly stressed. maybe the two things are related. maybe it’s the latent caffeine floating around in the french ether.
either way, i’ve just found my cure. thank you d. strauss. tying […]
stolen from dax, mixed with mixmeister
September 2nd, 2007
so, what happens when you end up with a few choice house cuts from a friend in london and some new mixing software to try out? you can’t resist the temptation to marry one with the other. sometimes, as with when a new culinary creation goes in oven, you know that the results can be […]
nathan fake/james holden essential selection
August 24th, 2007
not new, but somehow this still manages to sound fresh. nathan fake is playful with both the source and form of his music. one moment you’ll be drowning in an ocean of fuzz and feedback, then next teased with delicate sentimental japanese rhythms. and in turn, just as it gets floaty in comes a thunderous […]

that james holden track
August 24th, 2007
it’s friday and work’s a drag. so what to do? turn to youtube.
and what do i find? the nathan fake ‘the sky was pink’ (james holden remix) in it’s technicolor glory. ok, the vid’s black and white but somehow the song adds the colour.
boombassment - an ohm and kiterae recording
August 23rd, 2007
the poor boy was suffering. but thankfully the man called ohm dragged his ‘platines’ all the way from nice out to the upper reaches of cannes on a miserable night so that i could record a little and we could keep the neighbours up. and yep, whilst natalie massaged mirian both objectives were met.
there’s a […]
the minimal unfoundsound
August 16th, 2007
unfoundsound is the netlabel spin-off of US-based found sound records. that means they get to tap from their pro roster that includes the likes of barem, seph and dot, as well as feature newer artists looking for distribution.
perhaps it’s because a number of artists hail from argentina, but this brand of minimal techno generally foregoes […]
dj ohm and kiterae at smarties, nice
July 30th, 2007
can’t seem to get away from smarties at the moment. not complaining though. tomorrow night is me and dj ohm spinning fine house and electro. come round if you’re close by.
fink + kiterae @ smarties, nice
July 29th, 2007
so, once more fink and kiterae took to the decks at smarties as the current incarnation of nice’s finest electro bar draws to a close (refurb due in august).
a fun night for all until we pumped the bass one notch too far (i blame the monitors and my new headphones - i didn’t have a […]

smarties in nice, july 27
July 20th, 2007
after a 3 month hiatus, kiterae and dj fink return to smarties on july 27 for a night of electro, techno, dubstep and perhaps even some brain-dance! it’s free to get in and the ambience is to die for. as are the cocktails. throw in a couple of eccentrics behind the bar and there you […]
