An update from the sleepy party land:
ELECTRIC AFFAIR will happen again in November or December 2009 when King Of Town visits from the UK. Someone mentioned the other day that we kicked off the whole Italo/HiNRG revival here in SA...very flattering but inaccurate. It's never gone away. We just reminded some and exposed others. A name credit on the new HI NRG 2CD set just released was kinda cool though.
REFORM is a new party night/collaboration between myself and Charles Leonard. Expect an illegal gathering dropping an eclectic mix of 50's - 80's Soul/Funk/Rare Groove/RocknRoll/vintagedisco/Post Punk/Psych and odd South African Radio Pop and TownshipSwingJive.
First party Thu 5 November 2009 at Kitchener's Carvery (Milner Park Hotel) in Braamfontein. R10 cover. It may become every first Thursday of the month if the support is there.
Artwork to be posted shortly
kidofdoom's Johannesburg album launch is happening at Back2Basix in Westdene on Thu 29 Oct. Myself and Sassquatch will be dropping a late set
INDIEBLEEP is the name of my first DJ mix compilation. It's scheduled for Feb 2010 and will feature a few exclusive mixes of Zebra & Giraffe and Thieve along with mostly remixed tracks by Desmond & the Tutus, kidofdoom, The Units, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, White Lies, The Horrors, Santogold, Fever Ray, Kite In The Air, Metric and Vampire Weekend to name a few. It's all subject to clearance of course, so anything can change but there has been some confirmations already.
Going on the licensing groundwork done for the two Cellardoor compilations, most of the clearances will come through.
