FABRICLIVE.43
Sinden
Two years ago, Graeme Sinden and Dave "Switch" Taylor decided to knock
heads on a bimonthly residency at FABRICLIVE in the shape of a club
night named, quite aptly, Get Familiar. At the time, they described the
night thus: "It's an anything-goes eclectic club music blaze of the
best in everything forward-thinking and party - from the booty popping
sounds of Baltimore Club Music and Rio's Baile Funk to JA's upfront
Dancehall riddims, hyperactive Hip Hop to House/Electro and everything
that's good in-between. Expect familiar DJ faces and live bands at the
top of their game to kick it alongside the hottest up and coming acts
from around the world, as well as over-looked scene legends." And
that's exactly what they've done. Since January '06, Get Familiar has
grown from strength to strength, showcasing immense live performances
from South Rakkas Crew, Buraka Som Sistema, Kid Sister, Spank Rock,
Plastic Little, Bonde Do Role, Kool Keith and Boy Better Know; jam-hot
DJ sets from DJ Funk, Diplo, A-Trak, DJ Assault, Toddla T, The Rub, The
Heatwave, Sany Pitbull, Dexplicit and Hot Chip, among countless others.
Showcasing an all-embracing variety of sounds and styles, their
programming for Get Familiar mimics Switch & Sinden's
unconventional creations as a production duo.

Fabric44
John Tejada
Rhythm has always been the string that holds together the vibrant,
flowing fabric of John Tejada's career - even from the age of 8, when
he lost himself in a love affair with the drums, or from the age of 12,
when he first started DJing. Far too young to DJ at clubs, John spent
his youth DJing hip hop ("The stuff that struck me most was always sort
of Arthur Baker sound - Planet Rock, Planet Pattrol, Egyptian Lover and
the Kraftwerk influence") at school dances and throughout the backyard
party scene in sunny Los Angeles. It's rather difficult to imagine John
Tejada, nothing short of a techno legend - a linchpin in the scene's
development as a seminal producer, DJ, remixer and label owner - being
a hip hop DJ.
John certainly has had no trouble finding a core audience
despite his experimental tendencies. Even as a teenager, unable to get
into the groove of high school because he was obsessed by the grooves
of his records, he got hooked up with a college radio show in LA called
Fly ID, which instantly (and unknowingly) became a cult sensation. Upon
meeting a kindred spirit named Arian Leviste, John ditched a
scholarship for a prestigious art school and instead threw himself
straight into the studio world, working at a sound
library/post-production music company. The two of them put their hand
to collaborative productions in '91 and the chemistry was absolute:
together, the expansive pair has produced over a dozen singles and
three immaculate albums.

FABRICLIVE.42
FreQ Nasty
Born in Fiji and raised in New Zealand, breakbeat pioneer FreQ Nasty
grew up listening to his father's stories about his rowdy rock shows
("I remember him saying when he was 14 or 15, he was earning more in a
week than his dad was in a month from playing in bands!") and dreamed
of bigger possibilities. He decided at the age of 14, while working his
first manual labour job, that he didn't want to succumb to mundanely
being a cog in the machine. That very same boundary breaking
sensibility has always transcended through his music, from his
scene-shaking classics like "Boomin Back Atcha" and "Move Back," to his
remixes of pop icons like Fatboy Slim, Kelis and KRS One. At the same
time, he's always been very receptive to all that surrounds him,
especially when he made the move to London and immersed himself in its
developing scenes. His seminal releases on Botchit & Scarper for
example, forward thinking and progressive, were a sign of the
fast-moving times. No matter what new genre or new scene steals the
media spotlight these days, FreQ Nasty has the wisdom and experience to
see it for what it is. After all, the cycles have spun around countless
times within his vast, expandable career. Continually shape shifting
under the wide umbrella of bass culture, FreQ Nasty forever stays one
step ahead of its ongoing hype-fuelled evolution.

Fabric43 Metro Area Release |

Fabric43
Metro Area
Some musical partnerships seem to require a leap of faith or a
suspension of our collective disbelief; others progress come along so
naturally that the synergy almost seems fated, their work resolutely
undeniable. Brooklyn-based Metro Area (Morgan Geist and Darshan
Jesrani) is of the latter group without doubt: a beautifully harmonious
relationship wherein the duo push and pull in all the right directions
without compromise. Although both listened to pop RnB/electro of the
mid 80s growing up in quiet pockets of the East coast (Darshan in
Poughkeepsie, New York and Morgan in New Jersey), they independently
found themselves drawn to synthesizers and the techy side of producing
long before they discovered one another.
As Morgan and Darshan migrated towards equally remote areas of America
for college (Darshan staying in the east coast and Morgan relocating to
the Midwest) and gradually coaxed releases from the closed confines of
their dorms (Morgan even started his label, Environ, in his dorm room),
they simultaneously lived their formative years feeling somewhat
misunderstood and somewhat misplaced musically. It's a sentiment that's
rung true from when they met each other on email lists in the days
before internet forums through their early days when the two first
teamed up as an avant-garde, creatively unbound production/DJ team.

LOOPMASTERS ARE PROUD TO PRESENT:
COLDCUT: SOUND SCIENCE
Coldcut need no introduction. Being one of the first and finest artists to successfully work with samples and loops to forge their own styles of modern hip hop and dance music, Matt Black and Jon More are responsible for some of the digital generations finest musical moments, and whose label Ninja Tune continues to release some of the most cutting edge tunes currently available!
This exclusive sample pack produced for Loopmasters by Matt and Jon themselves, features a huge collection of previously unheard and unreleased material which is sure to grace many future hit records through genres such as Hip Hop, Breaks, House and Drum and Bass. A true skeleton key of sound, the loops and samples are a must for every serious music producer’s collection.
“For your delectation and musical pleasure we have prized open the Coldcut sample vault. Located deep within a secure facility at ninja hindquarters and sourced from over twenty years of electronic music creation, this library contains only the strongest survivors of sound. Digging deep within our repository of digital delights we have created a treasury of tools for your use. All the samples have been chosen with micro attention to sonic detail, a range of carefully produced elements that will have you creating new genres in minutes, rocking a party like you just don’t care, or making your bass face till it hurts…its all here, liberated by Coldcut for you.
“What Do I Get” The Buzzcocks once asked; well you get weighty kicks and snappy snares, happy claps plus slurpy hats, some credit crunching crashes, a good handful of snicky snacky percussion plus several rolls of tom toms. Combine this with a select group of tightly honed loops that go from weird groove through rare groove to future grooves. Chuck in plenty of Electronic parps, burbles and stabs from some of the obscurest vintage synthesisers we could find. Mix this with dash of Scratchy stuff, a large pinch of melodic topping, a drizzle of Vocal blips, a noisette of low-slung sub and lashings of punchy noise. Rounded out with deep bass lines… Sorry no cheese! So that’s the menu of ingredients - the recipe is up to you, fear not cooking with Coldcut is a natural gas.”

Erase appear to be putting out a fine selection of records every few weeks at the moment, and the quality appears to be getting better with every release. Here label favourite Gooseflesh gets the remix treatment on his tracks Delorean and Computer Number. Choice picks for readers of this page include label boss Stama’s take on Computer Number (built around a brutal kick drum and stabs of the original distortion) and Costellos take on Delorean (very loud, and worth pogoing around to).7
Daniella Downs/Lot49 holy shit what a package!
stama, hexadecimal, and break the box on the same package. that's what i'm fucking talking about.

The second outing on this highly promising label. This time France’s
finest Maelstrom shows just why he has a golden reputation when it
comes to his production talent. Youthstar on the vocals combines
excellently with Maelstrom’s beats, which move between a break and 4/4
keeping the track interesting and full of energy! 4/5
M8 The second release and woooah this is a biggie that will
appeal to breaks heads and the likes of Crookers , Fake Blood etc; that
urban booty bounce bass line house electro thang that is ever so
popular these days and rightly so. Three mixes to chose from, the first
a breaks house crunk b boy hybrid, MC urging you to ‘bounce to this,
and you will, the second with live marching percussion, 70’s funk soul
interludes and straight into a Teutonic pounding
hip-tech-bass-hop-electro-house-breaks smash up of epic proportions.
The Redux rmx, 4/4 peak time, bounce with a dash of speed garage bass
lineall tied together with MC Youthstar giving it some B Boy urban-tude.
We Likes all mixes!!
M7/M8 RECOMMENDED
