ΕΙΣΟΔΟΣ ΕΛΕΥΘΕΡΗ
Monday, 21 December 2009
Την Πέμπτη το απόγευμα μάθαμε ότι ο Justin Robertson δεν θα μπορούσε τελικά να βρεθεί στην Αθήνα το Σάββατο για προσωπικούς του λόγους. Βρήκαμε καινούρια ημερομηνία (9 Ιανουαρίου) και τον Γάλλο Bobmo της Institubes ως αντικαταστάτη (συμπληρώνοντας επίσης το line-up και με δυο καλούς μας φίλους, τους Disconekt και Digital Riot). Δυστυχώς, μία ώρα πριν από την επίσημη έναρξη του event μάθαμε ότι δεν θα μπορούσε να έρθει ούτε κι ο δεύτερος ξένος γκεστ μας, καθώς από το αεροδρόμιο του Παρισιού τον στείλαν πίσω λόγω υπεράριθμων κρατήσεων στην πτήση για την οποία είχε κανονικά εισιτήριο. Το πάρτι έγινε μόνο με τους ντόπιους djs, τους ευχαριστούμε πολύ, ζητούμε όμως συγγνώμη για τις απογοητεύσεις των δύο ακυρώσεων, κι ελπίζουμε να μην μας τυχαίνει συχνά. Έχουμε Justin Robertson, Riton, The Fiery Furnaces και για Bobmo βλέπουμε.

ΑΚΥΡΟΣ Ο ROBERTSON / ΜΕΙΝΕΤΕ ΣΥΝΤΟΝΙΣΜΕΝΟΙ
ΑΝΑΒΑΛΛΕΤΑΙ δυστυχώς η εμφάνιση του Justin Robertson μεθαύριο για λόγους υγείας. Ψάχνουμε να δούμε τι ακριβώς θα κάνουμε, με κάποιον αντικαταστάτη ή μόνοι μας, το πάρτι θα γίνει, θα σας πούμε σύντομα λεπτομέρειες.

ΠΡΟΒΟΛΕΣ ΣΤΟ ΝΙΧΟΝ
Νομίζω είναι κάτι που δεν έχει ξανακάνει ο Κορμοράνος. Με αφορμή την κυκλοφορία του ΣΑΝ ΣΙΔΕΡΕΝΙΟ ΟΜΟΙΩΜΑ ΓΑΝΤΙΟΥ ΑΠΟ ΒΕΛΟΥΔΟ, διοργανώνει μια βραδιά προβολών στην πολύ συμπαθητική αίθουσα του Nixon στον Κεραμεικό (την Τετάρτη 23), με δύο ταινίες σε σενάριο του ίδιου του δημιουργού του κόμικς (και βασισμένα σε παλαιότερα έργα του) (Ghost World και Art School Confidential του Terry Zwigoff), Daniel Clowes, και μία μεταμεσονύχτια που σχετίζεται με τον αυθεντικό τίτλο του βιβλίου (το Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! του Russ Meyer). Η είσοδος θα είναι ελεύθερη και για τις τρεις ταινίες, τις ώρες τις γράφει στο Πρόγραμμα, αλλά θα ξαναγράψουμε κι εδώ με περισσότερες λεπτομέρειες.

ΑΛΛΟ ΦΡΟΥΤΟ
Αν και είναι ο πιο παλιός, μάλλον είναι και ο dj του οποίου τη δουλειά εμείς στον Κορμοράνο γνωρίζουμε λιγότερο καλά από σχεδόν όλων των άλλων που έχουμε κατά καιρούς φιλοξενήσει. Τον περιμένουμε με ανυπομονησία, μάθαμε ότι μόλις παντρεύτηκε (προχτές!) και αντιγράφουμε το βιογραφικό του στα αγγλικά:
Justin Robertson's tastes have always been catholic though in 2009 you
would be hard pushed to find a musician working successfully in areas as
diverse as techno, house, dancehall and art pop. Justin is a true modernist: he
excels as a DJ of international repute; is a creator of bespoke techno; one
third of New Pop band Thee Earls, a remixer for the likes of The Whip, Filthy
Dukes, Bjork and Felix Da Housecat and, most recently he has written and produced
an album ''Underneath The Pines'' as DEADSTOCK 33'S, his latest solo
venture due for release in 2010. In the midst of a creative purple patch
Justin's Deadstock 33's have also just released the Voodoo Swamp EP for
Southern Fried , ''the ascension'' ep for Paper recordings, and ''floating on a
wave'' for is it balearic - he calls it cosmic psych house - Justin works in
so many genres that he sometimes needs to create new ones.

Last year Justin was
approached by Harmless records to compile and mix their Art of Acid compilation
which was reviewed to universal acclaim in September. As a DJ of 20 years
repute Justin was the obvious choice to be allowed access to the Trax back
catalogue that Harmless own and he collated a mix of house music that had inspired
him as a clubber on the Hacienda dancefloor back in 1988. He also curated a
second disc which featured re-edits from the likes of Boys Noize and Dusty Kid.
It was compilation of the issue in DJ magazine on release ,also being nominated
for compilation of the year,and made Mixmag's top 20 best of 2008.

Justin's lineage through
music has taken many twists and turns. He began as a DJ in Manchester and his
early 90s clubs - Spice and Most Excellent - were hugely influential and
cornerstones of the burgeoning dance movement. The Chemical Brothers, then
students in the city, cited him as their mentor. His Rebellious Jukebox club -
also in Manchester - pre-empted the Heavenly Social and the mid 90s trend for
mish-mashing musical styles. In the 90s Justin generally operated under various
nom de stages, the most renowned being Lionrock with whom he scored several Top
40s hits - 'Rudeboy Rock' and 'Packet Of Peace' among them - and appeared on
Top Of The Pops in a dashing purple suit opting for twin gramophones over
Technics.

It wasn't until 2001 that
Justin stepped out under his own name releasing house and techno like 'Have
Mercy' for the Bugged Out imprint. In 2001 he recorded his most critically
acclaimed project to date Justin Robertson presents Revtone which brought
primitive house and new wave disco into the digital age. Originally on Nuphonic
the best tracks came out through Bugged Out, with 'Love Movement' - remixed by
Ulrich Schnauss who cited Justin's early work as an influence - being placed
second best single of 2003 by Jockey Slut magazine. Contemporaries Black
Strobe, Chicken Lips and Kiki also remixed Revtone tracks.

For someone
with such diverse tastes it should have come as no surprise to anyone when
Justin began recording and singing with a guitar. He has been writing songs
since his school days and played electric guitar in Lionrock. 2004's 'Twisted
and Torn' (released on Slut Smalls) reflected his love for singer songwriters
like Neil Young and Nick Drake. In the same year he also wrote a song with Tim
Burgess and Rob Playford called 'Yes It Is'. It became one of the most
requested songs on Sean Rowley's BBC London show and came out on Justin's
Blister Ballads 7" label in the fall of 2006. He continued in this vein writing
songs for Fatboy Slim's Palookaville and he has also contributed and sung on
two songs for his BPA album. Further co-writes have been completed for Dub
Pistols and also with Jon Carter and Anil Chalwa. His band Thee Earls have been
regulars on the festival circuit and singles Bombs To Fall and Let it Rain were
popular on NME and XFM radio. Always keen to seek out new bands Justin has lent
his support to several new acts with remixes for Shed, Coyote and
Hacksaw. Justin has also produced an album for the future kings of argentinas
electronic scene Poncho.

As a man as reknowned for
his reggae collection as his electronica Justin was an obvious choice for Wall
of Sound's Two Culture Clash album project. He recorded in Jamaica in 2005 at
the legendary Gee Jam studios with the lovers rock of 'Save Me' - featuring
guitarist Ernest Ranglin and Nadine Sutherland - the beautiful result.

continues to play a mix of techno and electronic house at clubs such as The
Loft in Barcelona, Pacha in Buenos Aires, Bugged Out in London, Shine in

clubs all over Europe and the rest of the world. Alongside Guy Williams, Bones

Justin will
continue to wear several hats, metaphorical as well as some stylish real ones!

ΑΡΧΕΙΟ
Το βίντεο είναι από την εμφάνιση των Zita Swoon πρόπερσι στη Θεσσαλονίκη. Η πρώτη φορά που έφερε ο Κορμοράνος το συγκρότημα στην Ελλάδα ήταν το 2003 στο Gagarin205, αλλά και πριν από την ίδρυση της εταιρείας, μετέπειτα μέλη είχαν διοργανώσει και την πρώτη τους συναυλία εδώ, τον Ιανουάριο του 2000 στο AN club (και τη δεύτερη, το 2001 στο ΡΟΔΟΝ). Αυτές τις μέρες, οι Zita Swoon γιορτάζουν τα δεκαπέντε τους χρόνια σε μια σειρά εμφανίσεων σε Γαλλία, Ολλανδία και Βέλγιο με πολλούς γκεστς και μεγάλα σετ. Αυτές τις μέρες, κυκλοφορούν και την πρώτη τους Best Of συλλογή με τίτλο To play, to dream, to drift / An Anthology.
