Noiseban .02.12

UPDATE: Noiseban .02.12 will now be at RUSSIAN BAR (267 Kingsland Road)


So it's less than a week until the next Noiseban, the first one for a while. We'll be in the cellar of The Russian on Kingsland Road. - Downstairs, now that's where the fun will be happening. Get there before 11pm for free entry and a chance to see TheGreenLazer kick things off with a few choice Hip-Hop tracks. Later on, I (Ceefax B) will be playing some Disco & House and maybe a little Electro, followed by John Bailey (Egg the Teens) playing the same sort of stuff. Things will get a bit more hectic when Monsieur Ferro and Full Stop chuck some big Electo sounds in the mix. Good friends of Noiseban, the very busy Fanny Games will hit the decks for a DJ set at around 2am. Before we close up for the night expect to see the usual noiseban free-for-all with everyone playing head-to-head.Friday 2nd December
Downstairs - The Russian, London, E2 8AS

Get there before 11 for free entry, Doors open at 10.

Unfortunately we can no longer offer reduced entry for the guestlist.

See you on Friday,
Ceefax B & Monsieur Ferro

Chill & Trip Hop

First up, Got wind of this relatively unknown artist King Singh from Steve Strong over at White Elephant Clothing. This track, 'wood or wire?' has a sweet video and is probably his best work so far. check it out:



Download the track here,

Next up, Whilst reading the musigh blog I came across an artist we used to play far too much on the Ralph and Joe show back on XpressionFM, I am of course talking about emancipator:



That track was Nevergreen - Which you can download here


Lastly, one of the pioneers of the Genre, DJ Krush: with Day's end. Enjoy!



By the way, the next noiseban is on Friday the 2nd of December, click attending on facebook for guest list.

French!

Justice have a new album out, and the title track is pretty self descriptive; "Audio, Video, Disco".
It seems like a million years since they released the single "Civilization" and this time they've ditched the rock guitar and drums for some smooth synth sounds. The first thing I though when I heard the track AVD was these guys are unmistakably French. It isn't just their accents, this track seems to pull together bits of Air, Daftpunk's more relaxed songs and a touch of Yuksek. I can't tell you what it is about this song, but it's definitely French.
Yuksek's album "Living on the Edge of Time" was out this summer, I recommend getting a copy. This is his latest single, "Always On The Run":

Also Check out Villa's balearic remix:
Yuksek - Always on the Run (VillA remix) by VILLA (Official)
Seeing as I mentioned Air I have to play this:

London riots

I'm not a teenager, I never had an Atari (I had a Commodore 64) and I avoided the London riots like a scared little mouse - but I do like Atari Teenage Riot:

They remind me of my angst filled years when I listened to punk music, but with none of the cheesy nostalgia of playing an Offspring album. This recent remix by Tony Senghore sounds a little bit like what the clubs were playing 2 years ago, but I still like it:

Oh and while your here, look at this:

Special Sauce

I've just been listening to Crystal Fields by The Special Ks, it's pleasant enough - a bit like one of the Mystery Jets housier tracks as sung by Daniel Bedingfield (not that it's necessarily a bad thing!)

The whole time I was listing to the track I was expecting it to get heavier, a skillful remix could really give this song some depth. something like this Toddla T remix of Wave And Wine by Schlachthofbronx:

Saying that, the original mix is hardly subtle:
