Tonight on Art Of Beatz: Gavin Froome live and Soundmurderer
Now, it's your turn to help us stay on the air for more!! That's right, it's our fall membership drive. Please give us a call this week and next, to become a member of CoOp Radio, and help make a difference in your community! Tell em Art of Beatz sent ya, On-Air booth: 604-684-7561. TONIGHT: Hour One: Gavin Froome LIVE Independent music producer Gavin Froome released his third album for Nordic Trax in October ‘04. Underground Heroes has that refined sound neatly described by XLR8R Magazine as ‘the kind of swanky house and slinky down tempo that could turn **** into sugar.’ Inspired by the Pacific West Coast propensity for turning out internationally acclaimed art & design, Underground Heroes is a tribute to all those talented artists who are yet to be acknowledged. A Vancouver discovery himself, Froome has returned with a diverse and stylish vibe, ranging from stomping house to jazzy down tempo. Boozy A.M. has already been snapped up for XLR8R’s Sept ’04 Incite CD and Sunsets was recently licensed to D’Julz on-line mix project Audio Families - and to Renaissance, the latest compilation from Sander Kleinenberg. One of the few talents in North America to combine a live improvisation element into his DJ performances, Froome displays a remarkable ability to innovate and evolve in line with globally acclaimed artists. He started out with the 909 Drum Machine and Akai Sampler; moved into MPC 2000 before progressing to the super-portable Powerbook, so that the full studio experience can be set up anywhere from the most compact DJ booth to the corner of a Lounge Bar. Hour Two: Soundmurderer's "Wired For sound" Mix in support of his gig here on Sunday. Simon Reynolds review SoundMurderer, Wired For Sound (Violent Turd) Is this the greatest jungle mix-CD ever? (Meaning, obviously, therefore the greatest dance music mix-CD ever?). DB's History of Our World Part One (but that's not focused only on jungle like this is), or something by DJ Hype might pip it to the post, but only by a whisker. Sixty --that's SIXTY!!!--tracks of 94-style pure ragga-jungle, from Kemet Crew to L Double to Marvellous Cain, in a little over sixty minutes. An awesome barrage of Amen snare-rushes and sublo rootical bass-sway, sound-against-sound bashment battle cries and roots-era sensi-paeans. --- Eve, Motomasa and I will be in studio tonight. We'll have two pairs of tickets to next week's way out west show at Richards on Richards to give away and hopefully Gavin will have a few copies of the new album as well. 12-2am. Tonight. 102.7 FM in Vancouver. Http://www.coopradio.org for the online streaming family. http://www.artofbeatz.org to learn more about the show. AOB: Because you like cake. |
