Jimpster Boiler Room DJ Set
It's no secret how much I'm into Jimpster. I have loved his productions, remixes and his label Freerange since the beginning and saw him DJ twice here in Los Angeles. I am extremely proud that in 2008 he released my "Ice On The Sun EP" on Freerange and included a remix by Version aka Charles Webster & Atjazz. In the recent months Jimpster has been playing an edit I did for polish outfit Scroczynski Prus. You can hear it on the Freerange Podcast from May, in most of Jimpster's recent DJ gigs and now also on this recording of the recent Boiler Room Freerange Records special.
Watch for Jamie working Scroczynski Prus "Final Wielkiej Cioty (Lars Behrenroth Re-Edit)" in and out of his set from minute 21:20 to 27:10
Rondenion 'Assemblage' Official Music Video
Japanese producer Rondenion is a long time Deeper Shades favorite for his midtempo and sample laden tunes released on labels like Still Music, Aesthetic Audio and Rush Hour.
In September his debut album "Luster Grand Hotel" will be jointly released by Roundabout Sounds and Plug Research. The vinyl release of the album will be available through Roundabout Sounds while the digital release is handled by California based Plug Research.
I will try and feature a track or two on a future Deeper Shades Of House show
Check out the video for "Assemblage", directed and produced by Rondenion.
FACT TV: KiNK goes Against the Clock
If you have seen this video before, you know how awesome KiNK plays live.
Here's now a new video posted by Fact TV where you can see much more of his technique, live set up and awesomeness. I miss tweaking all those controllers when producing. One of the downsides if everything happens in your computer
Check out the video right below.
From the YouTube description:
Against the Clock's third episode, following sessions with xxxy and Thefft, features KiNK. The Bulgarian producer has been breathing new life into classic dance music forms -- piano house, acid, loop techno -- for several years now, both in the studio and with his live set-up, and with him scheduled to play secretsundaze's Bank Holiday event this weekend, we asked him about taking on the challenge. Of course, KiNK being KiNK, he did things a little differently: he sent us a video, filmed by Boris Katzounov, of him using vinyl acapellas and his armoury of studio gear to show off what he does for his live show in five minutes -- because why bother with 10 when you're this smooth, right?
