Brief but wonderful Days Like This (Before Katalyst)

bpicky2 — Wed, 10 Jun 2009 14:39:49 +0000

No one has noticed but I’ve disappeared. This fizzle makes it a more comfortable state, actually. Here’s one part of the last gigs I performed at, ‘Days Like This!‘

Such a great festival. So many heroes. All the Aussie supports were cut but for Simon and I… Quick, filler sets assigned, but damnnit, I tried to smack the back outta those decks in the time that I had. And I did. And now I’m spent. x

“I want to push DJing. I want it to be more than DJing, and also less than DJing. That’s why I’ve started implementing nearicles into my set. Nearicles are like almost miracles. You get close, but its not quite there. Its, its a nearicle!”

Anyway, that’s from my Al, who actually believes in me and is awesome enough to keep me laying hope eggs.

DJ Krush Support set (Canberra)

bpicky2 — Thu, 22 May 2008 01:00:13 +0000

I play a bit of electronica tinged hip hop and speak a bit of Japanese so it was pretty appropriate to get to support my hero, DJ Krush! At my wedding in February, we walked down the aisle to Dj Krush’s “Final Home” (the piano mix) too so it made it pretty poetic, sorta, too.

Poor Krush was a bit stunned because his support rocked up, was a girl, spoke Japanese and told him enthusiastically about getting hitched to one of his songs, (in Japanese). He was bewildered but stoked. When one of the turntables buggered out, he was cool enough to let me use one of his for the remainder of the set too. After my set, he said my tunes were great, high-fived me and clapped me in front of the crowd. I still feel a little glowy…

He then pulled out an awesome set and was such a generous performer and truly the master. Thanks to Landspeed for making a dream come true. Now I just need to support Shadow and Tipper and my list is done!

From the lovely review from BMA:

“We arrived to find the lush sounds of ex-Canberran Bec Paton doing a warm-up set that, had it been louder, and she not a support DJ, would have been more than enough entertainment for one night. Her sublime mixing of records that would pose problems to the most talented of selectors formed a beat-laden, diverse, bass-y and beautiful introduction to the night – which was only slowed by quickly rectified turntable problems – and seemed like a tribute to all Krush is about: gorgeous sounds juxtaposed by drums-of-death.”

Raiden Support Set (Canberra)

bpicky2 — Sat, 17 May 2008 13:30:04 +0000

The bass manics from True Jungle Souljahs invited me back to Canberra to support Raiden, all the way from the UK and famous for his techno infused drum & bass. While this is not a style I really play, I managed to pull out a killer set of dubstep, grime, jungle and drum and bass. It was heaps of fun with MC Harlequin on the mic and a room full of up-for-it peeps.

I got a pretty awesome review from InTheMix for it too: “Confession #3: I enjoyed the next act more than the headliner. Maybe it was due to my complete lack of exposure to the mega-ultra-cool genre of dubstep before this moment, but Bec Patonâ€™s set absolutely blew me away. Glitchy, bassy and just downright cool, I couldnâ€™t help but get my â€˜groove awnâ€™ (sorry dancefloor) and was fixated for an hour in some kind of dubby, wacked-out hypnotic trance. All hail dubstep, the next genre to make you feel like the coolest mo-fo on the planet!”

Sick!

bpicky2 — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 02:00:54 +0000

This week I was super lucky to have Unkle Ho and Senator Jim to come into the studio and play a live set! What a way to celebrate the new album, Circus Maximus, out on Elefant Traks. Unkle Ho’s music is something really fresh and special to experience and it was sonically divine to have the two guys jamming on their computer, mpc, theramin, trumpet and melodium! With multicultural musical influences working in harmony across a range of genres, it isn’t to hard to envisage world peace when listening to this music!

This week, apart from a helluva lot of cool tunes, we did on of those conceptual versus games again. This time we took two artists exploring the headspace of a suicide bomber and smacked them up against each other to feel out the different approaches. Braintax, outta the UK was first up with his track The Grip: A day in the life of a suicide bomber. Next up was Sydney’s own Fall for Days with Bomber, which takes on the quiet before the storm, as a suicide bomber begins their mission.

For the ravers and free spirits amongst us, there was the lowdown on the Channel 23 warehouse party. Excessive force was used to remedy the civil disobedience and perhaps people might wonder why, given that the party was civil, ( but cheeky), and peaceful.

This week we featured an interview with Diplo, a Philidelphia-based DJ and producer who is also involved in running the record labels Mad Decent, Money Studies and Hollertronix. His production is characterised by Baltimore, Miami bass, crunk and Rio baile funk sounds, and his mixes often have elements of 80’s electro. The exception to his club orientated music is his album Florida, released on Big Dada in 2004, which is sample-based instrumental hip hop.

I caught up with him in his hotel room, where we were joined by Pase Rock from Spank Rock, where we talked of the death of Disco D, Florida, baile funk and his new movie, Favela on Blast – a documentary about the Favelas of Rio and their music.

An interview with Diplo, a Philidelphia-based DJ and producer who is also involved in running the record labels Mad Decent, Money Studies and Hollertronix. His production is characterised by Baltimore, Miami bass, crunk and Rio baile funk sounds, and his mixes often have elements of 80’s electro. The exception to his club orientated music is his album Florida, released on Big Dada in 2004, which is sample-based instrumental hip hop.

Tune in for an interview with Low Life Recordings’ owner, Braintax. He’s just dropped Panorama, which is thought provoking, culturally eclectic and eloquent. When asked what he’d bust on a massive mega-phone that could be heard worldwide, he simply said that he’d urge people to bother, question and afford themselves the joy of being passionate. A truthsayer and soothsayer.

A swarm of eclectic and brilliant international music talent has descended on Australia this month for the This Is Not Art festival and Red Bull Music Academy. Some of these artists were featured on the show to share some of the wealth and give an insight into the richness of these events.

For something a little different but interesting to muse over, an American MC, Raydar Ellis, and Australian MC, Urthboy, were played smack bang next to each other to contrast how they took on the same subject. Both wrote a track about struggling to get by as a musician working outside the mainstream music industry and it’s interesting to see the differences in the approaches but also evidence how the two scenes vary between the countries from the lyrics.
