12 Inches Of Pleasure

Darshan Jesrani (Metro Area - NYC)
with Alex Zahara & Alan Manzi

Darshan is half of Metro Area, creators of "Miura"
which is an absolute classic track. Their sound
combines the soul of house music with the funk of
disco and rigidity of techno. So good. Extra sound is
being brought in just for this. Show up early cause
the place will be packed.

orgue electronique at the phoenix landing tonight

Straight from Netherlands, Orgue Electronique (Brian
Chinetti) is the master of the staccato minimal
electro-nic sound with unexpected melodies and
haunting tensions in between beats. Orgue Electronique
is not only known for the releases he did on Bunker,
Stilleben, Creme Organization, and various
compilations, but also for his collaborations with
Legowelt.

Orgue is very well known for his live performances,
using hardware only (no laptop!) this will be a real
throw back. He's been on the road and has traveled
from the Hague to Detroit, from Tokyo to New York, and
now for the first time to Boston to end his 2007 World
tour.

Joining Orgue is NYC based Dj, Speculator. He's
played all over the USA and Europe, has released a
record with Danny Wolfers (Legowelt) called
Smackulator, and also has a solo project called
Grackle. Speculator lives in Brooklyn where he holds
down a residency at the Tribeca Grand and a Monday
night radio show called Short Bus Radio, which airs on
the East Village Radio station.

And not to mention, our famed Wednesday night resident
Sergio Santos will be dropping some serious beats in a
way that only Sergio can deliver it.

So much techno, so little time . . . this night should
not be missed!

Wednesdays @ the Phoenix Landing

Ruoho Ruotsi (De'fchild - SF)
Sergio Santos (Resident)

Ruoho Ruotsi operates Defchild, a great dub techno
label out of San Francisco. He's got several 12"s
under his belt at this point and has worked on
collaborations with Todd Gys and Mike Uzzi & Ben Recht
as well. If you're into Basic Channel than this is for
you. I believe this is his Boston area debut.

Bruno Pronsato celebrates freedom @ the Landing

Wednesdays @ Phoenix Landing
July 4th 10pm - 1am
Fresh off a European circuit Bruno Pronsato (Orac|Hello?Repeat - Berlin) joins us to kick off his American tour. For those that missed him last time around at 808, Bruno's live sets are topped by few. He's used to much larger venues so the Phoenix will be an especially intimate setting. Bruno's gonna make the fireworks look like truck stop sparklers.

Opening sounds provided by resident Eric Gray.

Non-Event and Make it New present

Raster-Noton R.P.M. (Revolutions Per Minute):

SENKING, FRANK BRETSCHNEIDER, and OLAF BENDER
(Boston debut for all three artists)

Middlesex Lounge

Doors: 9pm, Show: 10pm

http://www.raster-noton.de

http://www.middlesexlounge.com/
http://www.rarefrequency.com/nonevent/

SENKING is Cologne's Jens Massell, who also records as
Fumble and as part of Poto & Cabengo. As Senking,
Massell makes darkly atmospheric music that is deep,
dubby, and intensely cinematic. His most recent CD,
List, is out now on Raster-Noton. This will be his
first U.S. performance.

FRANK BRETSCHNEIDER is a founding member of
Raster-Noton and one of the pioneering figures in
ultra minimal post techno. Using the most basic sound
sources--sine waves and white noise--Bretschneider
creates minimal, flowing pieces with delicate textures
and complex rhythmic patterns.

OLAF BENDER is a founding member of the Raster-Noton
label, as well as its lead designer. Bender (formerly
known as Byetone) creates his music digitally,
assembling sine tones into complex sound fabrics of
deep sub-bass and rhythmic clicks and crackles. He
creates abstract animations to support his abstract
music -in this way the rhythm of music is transformed
into a graphic equivalent, which Bender controls in
real time.

Zero G anniversary, Make It New, Rise

This week we celebrate the 5th anniversary of Zero G
Sounds, Boston's beloved techno mainstay and
brainchild of Eddie O. To mark the occaision we've
invited the legendary Kooky Scientist to treat us to a
live set. Every time Fred has performed at the Phoenix
it's been memorable so don't miss this one. Also we
have Todd Gys who was the first artist signed to Zero
G and really carved out the trademark deep dubby sound
the label is known for. Warming it up is the ace Eric
McLaughlin of 808 fame. Check the listing below for
info.

And click here to listen to a recent interview with
Zero G boss Eddie O. on the Trancelab with our buddy
DJ Lord Bass. Eddie talks a bit about the beginnings
of the label and what to expect for the future, which
looks bright.

Audion aka Matthew Dear (Ghostly, Spectral)

w/Sergio Santos

Mathew Dear is an incredibly versatile talent. From
sometimes gnarzy and always banging Audion moniker to
his hyper-edited minimal techno False project to his
avant pop experiments under his own name. His "Mouth
to Mouth" was probably the biggest record of the past
year and was charted and played by just about
everybody. This is gonna sound so good on that sound
system. Props to Marz for bringing him.
