NOICE! Podcast

This Mix originally aired this past week on our NOICE! radio show. as is often the case, when we are totally blown away by a mix, we feel the world should be able to download it.

there is so much going on right now with Mathias's career. he has a forthcoming release on our Label (NOICE!) called "Nuevo Romance" which will have remixes by newcomer Sergey Trotzkopf and Superstar Seph (of cityfox, dumb unit, and Harry Klein fame).

Brandnew release: Warenkorb # 6, the new WARE label compilation with 4 tracks by Mathias Schaffhäuser was released in march. On his remix of „This Is For My Dutch Crowd” Mathias continues his excursion in minimal-dub-step, „Pumpe / Düse“ reflects his very old love to ravy Techno, and his remix for Chra’s „Såkenoivå“ is Schaffhäuser Minimal-Crossover at its best. Last but not least Chra remixes „Nice To Meet You“ and transforms the classic in an incredible and outstanding dancefloor radio play.

and some more happenings for 2012:
2012 started with the release of the UTOPIA EP on LEBENSFREUDE REC., a 2 tracker which shows the current style and variety of Mathias’ production perfectly. The title track is ravy and atmospheric at the same time and maybe one of the best peak time tracks Schaffhäuser ever made. And the flipside „Cancelation Nation“ combines Mathias’ love to breakbeats and dubstep with his minimal skills. A very unique and personal fusion. You can hear a live version of this track on his soundcloud profile with addional live vocals!

and some more info on Mathias:
Present:

Mathias Schaffhäuser’s around in the techno, house and minimal scene since 1994. Past releases of Mathias appeared on WIR Recordings, Lebensfreude, on Persistencebit Rec., Resopal Red, Force Inc., Multicolor, Definitive Records (house sub-label of Plus-8), Blaou Sounds, Frisbee Tracks and many others. In 1997 he started his own record label WARE which released 89 EPs until now (as of Febuary 2011).

Schaffhäuser’s motto at the turntables is: Purism sucks! The quality of the music is what’s important, not sheer functionality and a perfect mix. That is: at times his sets can be rather varied from Ware-style music, nice + smooth neo-house and funky minimal to thumping techno. His current favourites come from labels such as Prologue, Islands & Islets/Sthlm, Deep Data, Cynosure, Snork, 3rd Wave, Mobilée, Vakant, Circus Company - just to name a few.

Past:

2001 saw his club hit "Hey Little Girl", 2002 "Musik ohne Bass" entered the clubs (Force Inc.). In April 2005 he released his album "Coincidance" (Ware CD 14/Ware 52). The title track was remixed by Trentemöller and by Dapayk (Mo’s Ferry Productions, Dapayk & Padberg/Ware 54). December 2005 saw his 12" "Lost Vox" with a remix by Pan-Pot, in febuary 2006 the next remix 12" "more alternatives" was released with a mix by Audio Werner.

On the 11. of Febuary 2008 the jubilee EP "10 Jahre Ware" / "10 Years Of Ware" appeared on the scene with 2 epic tracks, one by Ziggy Kinder and the other by Mathias. Both tracks reflect the Ware history by using samples of the the label’s past 10 years + fit them together with new + unique ideas to 2 new exciting monster tunes.

In 2011 Mr. Schaffhäuser looks back on a veritable live tour which led him to Buenos Aires, Rostock, Singapore, Offenbach and Trieste. What combines these illustrous places, you may ask? Everywhere was absolutely super cool! Schaffhäuser’s set kept throwing audiences off the curve. I mean, who squeezes minimal sounds, spontaneous vocal performances, crude cover versions and melodica solos into a one-hour set, without constantly staring at a computer screen? But, from nothing nothing comes. Even before 1993 (does anyone remember this?) Schaffhäuser sang and played guitar in several bands, so he knows how to rock the house. And that works even better with a big enough stage and wireless microphones! Though another fine house track is never far, after all, Schaffhäuser wouldn’t neglect his traditional Ware style, no matter how much he rocks.

one of our favorite artists and residents on NOICE! mixes a few records for us. this show originally appeared on Wednesday March 28th on Protonradio.com

Please join us in welcoming Cesare vs. Disorder.

Over the past few years, Italian producer Cesare Marchese aka Cesare vs Disorder's (also Queen Atom/CEZ/Sire Cactus) unique productions and performances behind the decks have gained him recognition within the underground house and techno worldwide community.
In addition to the demanding job of running labels Mean and Serialism together with a Lon- don/Berlin based team, he consistently releases on internationally recognized labels such as Vakant (Germany), Dumb Unit (Canada), Clink (USA) Stock5 (Germany), Thema (USA), Safari Elec- tronique (Uk), SthlmAudio (Switzerland), Archipel (Canada), Remake Musique (France), Resopal (Germany), to name a few.
Since being named one of Beatport's Ones to Watch' in 2009, Cesare has traversed the globe, playing at some of the best clubs alongside some of the biggest names in the industry. This summer he built upon his growing international profile with a successful debut at the Detroit Electronic Music Festival as well as the usual showcases at Sonar in Barcelona.
When he's not traveling, Cesare spends his time in the studio, the fruits of his labor included in a number of compilations. In 2009, his track "Mean Land" (Thema) was featured on the Co- coon compilation "Sound of the Tenth Season: mixed by Sven Vath. As Queen Atom, his track "Enemy Of Time" was included on the 3rd Watergate CD mixed by Konrad Black. This year, a track from his "Le Plaisir" EP on Clink Recordings, co-produced with Mikael Stavostrand, was added to Camea's well-received Clinkology compilation and also included on the acclaimed Damian Lazarus' "Get Lost Vol.4" compilation on CrossTown Rebels.
Currently, Cesare continues to add to his prolific body of work, by dropping two EP's on Dumb Unit with Jeremy Caulfield and Mikael Stavostrand, a ep with Inxec, Konrad Black & Cesar Merveille that will hit the street in the next months. Never slowing down, he also just completed a remix for Bang On out on Ninja Tune's hip-hop imprint, Big Dada.
Having lived for many years in London, last year Cesare relocated to Berlin, a city that he's always held close to his heart, and is currently working on his first album due in Winter 2012. With a new residency at Kater Holzig (new Bar25), a Serialism label night at Watergate and a Mean re- cord night at Weekend Club, Cesare continues to set Berlin's nightlife ablaze.

This Mix was originally Broadcast on our radio show the week of March 19th for our series with the terrific Off Recordings Label. we are Proud to present: Nhan Solo.

Fresh, cheerful and open-minded with a subtle taste of filth and urban lifestyle - that's House music the way NHAN SOLO likes it best. A sound reminiscent of Diynamic, OFF Recordings, Hot Creations and his favourite label Suol.
As a DJ, NHAN mixes Disco and Deep House tunes from Berlin and various other hot spots from all over the globe without losing sight of his audience. Crowds across Europe followed him through long, celebrated nights – whether in their best suits in classy environments or in shirts at cool underground venues.
2011, new year, new luck, new label!
Why do you start a record label? Because you feel like doing your own thing. Because you wanna build up a platform for creative potential. But first and foremost: Because you simply love this music. And that's exactly what stands behind the new record label Semester Musik. Its ambitious artist collective serves Deep House and Disco Music and stands exactly where label Co-Founder / A&R Nhan Solo feels at home for ten years now.
Yes, what a great year for Nhan Solo. He got remixed by Oliver $, Spencer Parker, Ian Pooley, Andre Crom & Martin Dawson. "Our Thang" on OFF26 was heavy played by DJs like Solomun, DJ T, Ellen Allien, Steve Bug, David August and many many more...

This Mix was originally Broadcast on our radio show the week of March 4th for our series with the terrific Off Recordings Label. we are Proud to present: Andre Crom.

Just a guy who discovered doing music is the perfect excuse for partying every weekend and not having a real job? Hardly.
Already when being a teenager, living far out in the german countryside, Andre Crom got intrigued by House and Techno as an exciting and irresistible escape from the boring surrounding he faced. Mid-90ies-dance and house left a strong mark on his taste which prevails until today.
The call of music led Andre into a career in electronic music spanning over 10 years, starting out as journalist interviewing heroes like Masters At Work or Mel Cheren of West End Records, continuing as booker and developing his dj skills at countless of gigs. In 2008 Andre Crom finally moved to Berlin and since then works fulltime as labelmanager, music producer and dj.
His label „OFF Recordings“ belongs to the most popular imprints of its kind, its releases getting good feedback and plays from virtually any dj with a taste for good house music and regularly entering high chart positions in the leading vinyl & digital stores; „OFF SPIN 03 – Thyladomid – The Voice“ held the Beatport Deehouse Chart # 1 position for many weeks to name just one example. Crom's coproductions with Martin Dawson „Gonna Be Alright“, „In the City“ or „About You“ were instant hits on Decks, Beatport and Resident Advisor as well.
However, Andre Crom's love for house music becomes most evident on his gigs, playing a mixture of own productions, hard-to-find oldschool gems and carefully picked current releases, always groovy and 100% focused on the floor.

Tracklist:
1. Adriatique & Thyladomid - Feeling Good - OFF
2. Adana Twins - Every Day - Exploited

Fresh off the airwaves of NOICE!. this is a set that Broadcasted this past week on Protonradio.com, Pulseradio, and sweatlodge radio exclusively for NOICE! we are proud to present an incredible journey into sound by Thema recording artist: Beaner.

Beaner is a master at losing mobile phones and staying awake for long periods of time without the aid of stimulants. He enjoys masturbation, difficulty, overcoming odds, and tear-jerking finales. Together with C.L.A.W.S. he is WarVsSleep and is one third of supergroup the 3 Good Doctors with Agaric and Ed Davenport.

Born in the depths of a Tajikistan prison, to a priest and a prisoner, Beaners life was never meant to be lived. One botched abortion later, screams and cries were heard round the world. A star is born! Raised later by wolves and the Jim Jones Peoples Temple he heard the calling through howls and shared cult hymns. Its MUSIC time!!! (not unlike the kool-aid man bursting through the walls). The Circus- San Francisco. The Generator- London. The Vieux Port- Marsielles. The Tufts Campus Arts House- Boston. The ABC No Rio- New York. The Gutter- Seattle. All just stops on the rollercoaster ride to Berlin. And Wildly Unchecked Success! A Residency at Bar25 (the studio 54 of the sexting generation) and releases on a smattering of recording labels followed. And the world cooed, like a dirty, dirty bitch. 2011 will bring the launch of anarcho-situationist cult-label-brigade "La Mission (kunst/WORK)". The stars will melt and we will drink them from our cups. Revolución!

Oh, honey please dont give your heart to a world system based on exploitation of the luckless, give you heart to US!

This wonderful mix aired yesterday on our radio show and concluded our November long series with the LA Based Techno Collective, Droid Behavior.

Los Angeles born and bred, Vangelis and Vidal Vargas were raised in the ’80s on a steady diet of Latin freestyle, electro, and new wave that pervaded their urban environment. Their father also exposed them to cutting edge progressive acts Vangelis, Tangerine Dream and Kraftwerk, planting early seeds for aural exploration. By the mid ’90s they were sampling LA’s underground club scene and heavily researching electronic music’s roots. After years of influence they began to express their musical vision through their own recordings and performances. Vidal and Vangelis eventually found common ground with producer / performer Drumcell, and in 2002 they formed the Droid Behavior event production group and record label out of frustration with the city’s lack of knowledge, acceptance, and understanding for Midwest-bred techno and house music and their European counterparts.
As producers Vangelis and Vidal have released and licensed original music and remixes under various aliases (most notably Acid Circus and Raíz) on the Droid Recordings imprint as well as respected labels Historia y Violencia, Tora Tora Tora, DJMag, Music Man, Resident Advisor, Enemy Rec, Gynoid, Reloading, Micro.Fon and Timefog. Their music has been charted, played and supported by Speedy J, Chris Liebing, Marcel Dettmann, Ben Klock, DVS1, Levon Vincent, Jonas Kopp, etc.
Their intense and inspiring performances have placed them alongside major players Jeff Mills, Richie Hawtin, Derrick May, Dan Bell, Surgeon, Sandwell District, Robag, Paco Osuna, Pan Pot, Marco Carola, Detroit Grand Pubahs, and Berghain Residents at undergrounds, festivals, after hours, and club nights from North and South America to Berlin.
Raíz fully harness the capabilities of Traktor, Ableton, and Maschine technology to create a thick blend of Detroit influenced techno and gritty house. They take cues from years of classical training to infuse dynamic musical expression with a delicate balance of mixing board acrobatics and symbiotic intuition. Years of production experience inform their Live PA / Digital DJ hybrid approach, which uses each track’s core essentials to form a narrative arch for every unique set. Their releases follow suit and take only key elements from each rhythmic style to shape simplistic and deep music that captures their diverse influences and personal impressions.

taken from our recent radio show.... Great Mix by Drumcell from Droid Behavior:
Drumcell is the founder of Droid Recordings and co-founder of Droid Behavior along with the Vargas brothers of techno duo Acid Circus. Since the mid Nineties Drumcell has been a firm believer in the power of techno and over the past decade become one of Southern California’s greatest champions.
As a graduate of the Musician’s Institute, a veteran performer at parties, and longtime recording engineer Drumcell harnesses a strong musical background with a gifted sense of technological intuition. The delicate balance keeps him pushing the limits of his gear continually as a way to develop his artistic express. Forming the Droid Behavior collective with Acid Circus earlier this decade was another other major step in this ongoing development. In turn, the collective has helped expose other local artists as well as established DJs to the growing legion of techno fans in the Los Angeles basin. In the past five years, he’s played alongside nearly every major DJ in the genre via the trio’s signature Interface parties. This year he also did a mini-tour of the US which culminated in him playing the main stage at the prestigious Movement festival in Detroit.
Drumcell ‘s constant push into the bleeding edges of music technology has earned him the title of product specialist for Native Instruments. He is out there pushing the limits of what current technology has to offer- developing homebrew software as well as cutting edge hardware solutions to bring a fresh, innovative taste to his production and performances. Innovations that blur the lines between live performance and a traditional DJ set up creating “a thick blend of acidic techno and aggressive but funky minimalist groove”. Drumcell is one of the few artists exploiting the full power of software like Traktor and Ableton run through state-of-the-art Allen & Heath mixer technology. In conjunction, the trinity is used to create a hybrid of flexibility and fidelity for the ultimate in electronic music performance. Drumcell uses this platform to highlight his own needles-in-the-red brand of aggressive, discordant techno. In fact, this summer’s Droid Recordings release “Cell Injection”, with longtime production partner Audio Injection, crystallized this amped up testosterone booster meets Quaalude jack and funk perfectly. In turn, the release captured the attention of many of the world’s top techno jocks in the process – including Speedy J and Richie Hawtin. It’s a sound born of musical menace and the kinds of wickedness that only the poisoned airs of LA can conjure.
Recently, Drumcell has also had a string of additional successes including remixes of techno legend Chris Leibing on Leibing’s own CLR label as well as the seventh anniversary of the now legendary Interface parties These gatherings have brought the best of the old school warehouse vibe together with intense new school multimedia presentations that defy explanation. He is currently developing a audio/visual performance to be unveiled by the end of this year in hopes of elevating his performances at these events to the next level. Drumcell will definitely be one artist worth watching in 2010.

a wonderful 90 minute mix from rising stars on Dessous. Please join us @ NOICE! in welcoming : Safeword.
Safeword is the result of a decade-long friendship and a mutual love for music between San Francisco's Clint Stewart and Marc Smith. The duo has worked side by side on music for years, so the eventual pairing was inevitable. Although the two have a great deal of the same musical interests, its the differences that make it. Both Stewart and Smith bring an individual perspective to the studio, which creates an incredibly diverse dynamic ranging from deep lush house to the heavier side of techno and all things in between.
With their foundation laid in thick, heavy drums, lush melodies and hypnotic atmospherics, Safeword’s every cut is a pulsating, cerebral campaign, track-by-track leaving indelible marks on its listeners. It’s their delicate interplay of pleasurable highs and dynamic lows that set this twosome into their own realm of creation.
With their debut EP, “Gaze,” on Paso Music getting high praises, an EP on both Berlin giants Dessous and Poker Flat, as well as an EP on Alland Byallo's forthcoming label, Bad Animal, the duo are primed to start their assault on dancefloors worldwide. Don't forget the Safeword.

This was the Fourth mix in our series with the LA based Culprit Label.

Please enjoy this little ditty of a Mix.
For some time now the combined forces of Mark Caramelli and Paul Hargreaves have been causing quite a stir under their guise, Death on the Balcony. Their unique style fuses a range of influences from Disco, House to Deep Techno and everything in-between depending on the time, space and environment. Years of dedicated musical passion and an eclectic appreciation of numerous genres have lead to their sound becoming perfected and receiving huge popularity across the board.

2010 was an amazing year for them with numerous DJ gigs and both their productions and remixes receiving mass support from some of the biggest players on the scene. The likes of Magda, Soul Clap, Jimpster, Wolf + Lamb and Ivan Smagghe to name a few, have all been charting their releases and supporting them with mass airplay. The recently released “Aquarian Exposition" EP on their own label, Magicbag, is an inspired homage to the legendary Woodstock Festival and has been awarded Mixmag's Tune of the month in the May 2010 edition.

Sept 2010 saw the release of Soul Clap's 2nd FreE.P which included DOTB's Banarama edit of Cruel Summer entitled "Cruel Banana". This was heard on dancefloors across the globe resulting in it being awarded 3rd best remix of 2010 by Data Transmission website. The edit came out around the same time their "Adventures of Soul Clap Podcast - Downtown:Uptown" was released which has also gone on to receive worldwide acclaim. (click pic below to get podcast)

Their imprint, Magicbag Music now on its 5th release is currently a popular label and receives continued support from a diverse range of people ranging from Radio 1’s Mary Anne Hobbs through to Jamie Jones, Brothers Vibe and basically the majority of the underground dance community. They have been remixed on their label Magicbag & various associated labels by Simon Baker, Gavin Herlihy, Soul Clap, Jozif, & Miquel Puente.

DOTB's DJ diary sees them play at some of the best spots in the world alongside the likes of Moodymann, Dyed Soundorom, Jamie Jones, Jacques Renault and many more. Based in Leeds & regulars in London they run their own club nights Throwback (Leeds) & Emmanuelle's Party Bucket at the infamous Horse&Groom in Shoreditch. Throwback & The Party Bucket are currently popular nights in the cities and recent guests have included Soul Clap, Craig Smith, Pete Herbert, The Revenge and Mark E who are yet more artists that fully support Death on the Balcony in all that they do.

Their release schedule is planned out until summer with DOTB releasing with the likes of Culprit, Catz n Dogz label Pets Recordings, Jef K's Silver Network, Airdrop, Akbal Music, ISM & Illusion + a forthcoming release on their own imprint Magicbag Music. They are also busy remixing for Need Want, Remote Records & Illusion. Along with all this they are working on a Limited CD mix of their own productions for release in spring/summer named Views from the Balcony...

As one of the UK’s finest up and coming acts Death on the Balcony will be delivering more productions, remixes and playing world wide gigs as their range of musicality continues to evolve and they deliver a unique, well-timed narrative of the best sounds around...
