Christoph Maitland – Electric Finger ep & Myagi Burning man benefit album!

[PopandLock]

Two big news items from Myagi's Pop and Lock Records!

Christoph Maitland – Electric Finger out at Beatport NOW!
Run Riot Remix already #2 on this weeks "must hear" breaks chart on beatport!


OUT NOW AT BEATPORT!

One of the most talked about Pop and Lock releases yet!

One of the rising stars of Canada’s dance resurgance, Christoph Maitland pokes the world with his massive “Electric Finger.”

The original’s techy, open-filter stomp peaks out with euphoric hands-in-the-air synth riffs and a breakdown that will work any floor.

Robosapiens – the mad doctors behind Dead Famous records – turn in an awesome techno rework that rolls with funky precussion and builds, builds builds to a killer peak out. Awesome.

Run Riot are a relatively new act with two R’s in their name, which make “Run Riot Remix” really fun to type and say. Their signiature rock elements fuse with the synths of the original to take the track into driving tech-breaks territory, and the result is an awesome peak time rocker that will not dissappoint.

Quadrat Beat are one of the highlight acts to come out of Eastern Europe in the last few years, and this track shows why – awesome punchy drums and treatment of the remix parts results in a tune that stays true to the original but twists it into a b-boy number extraordinaire!

A very special Myagi benefit album for Burning Man Temple 2010 – please support!


Hey hey folks!

This is a bit of a special project that I’d love you to check out and hopefully share to your friends, co-workers or even various nemeses.

It’s been about 2 years since my last proper studio album and about a year and a half since I started my label Pop And Lock, so I figured it was about time to do a new “compilation” of sorts to hold things over until I finish my next album, due out later this year or early next. It’s also for charity! 100% of the proceeds from any donations you make go to Burning Man’s Temple Burning Man Temple 2010, a massive project that needs your support.

You can download it and donate HERE Myagi Benefit Mix! | Burning Man Temple 2010, and read more about the Temple below!

Notes From Myagi:

San Francisco is a city very dear to me, and has been the site of some of my favourite shows I’ve played in my 6 years of touring or so… The city has a great nightlife scene and is also a hub for the festival / phenomenon Burning Man, a week long celebration of music, art and lifestyle in the desert. The festival is very much a labor of love – I knew this already, but didn’t comprehend the degree to which the word “labor” comes into play until a recent trip to the bay area to do a benefit show with Elite Force, Soul Of Man and Slyde for the 2010 Temple Of Flux, a massive construction and project that involves numerous friends of mine.

You can check out a bit of a “walkthrough” of the Temple as a rendered animation here:

Please check out the album and if you feel inclined (at I hope you do) donate as much as you like / can to help a bunch of VERY talented people do something very special.
