  • [BCN] 07/06/12 ::: Nereida & The Centrifuge presents Gallery Session::: Vaetxh | CN | missaw

    The Centrifuge Agency & Nereida Productions are hosting a FREE ENTRY evening showcase on Thursday 7th June at NIU BCN.

    Facebook Event Page

    Information:

    CN (aka EOD / 030303, WeMe, Wil-Ru)
    CN is the machine-music alias of emerging Norwegian electronic musician Stian Gjevik, perhaps better known under his “EOD” alter ego. Informed by sci-fi imagery, alien landscapes, classic analog hardware, submerged Drexciyan sonics and cold teutonic rhythms, he creates a rich sound world where arpeggios and atmospheric synth pads transport you to another realm.
    http://www.eod.fm

    Vaetxh (Detroit Underground, Schematic, The Centrifuge)
    Vaetxh is a fast-rising star of bass and glitch. Discovered by The Centrifuge in 2010, his heady mix of laser-precision audio manipulation and high-fidelity bass frequency workouts is winning him fans across the globe. The end result is something refreshingly unique in today’s hyper-saturated sonic landscape – intricate, engaging and emotive scapes incorporating the aesthetics of dubstep, glitch, IDM, ambience and field recordings. It’s in the interplay of natural and unnatural, of the real and the synthetic, the planned and the unexpected, the mechanical and the organic, that Vaetxh finds his inspiration.
    http://www.vaetxh.com

    missaw (The Centrifuge)
    missaw is The Centrifuge’s founder, label curator and resident DJ. His repertoire spans the cutting-edge musical spectrum, from ambience and drone to electro, acid and drill & bass. He is equally at home in concert hall, lecture theatre, laboratory and club conditions, mining his well-travelled collection of classics, obscurities, forthcoming label material and exclusive music from the artists and labels The Centrifuge is affiliated with.

    Saturday 3rd September @ The Rhythm Factory, Whitechapel Road, London

    10pm – 6am // FREE ENTRY ALL NIGHT

    We return to our spiritual home of East London after myriad excursions around the festivals, warehouses and dancefloors of Europe and North America over the summer.

    To celebrate our homecoming we’ve assembled a bumper lineup to test the outer reaches of the Rhythm Factory’s souped-up soundsystem. With no less than 5 cutting-edge live acts and the Dispatch Agency crew taking over the second room, somehow incredibly we’ve managed to keep it free entry too. All the more reason to come and celebrate!

    More Infos:

    CURSOR MINER is the avant pop anti-hero who continues to confound expectations, sport outlandish costumes and shatter genre preconceptions with his barnstorming live show. His last album on Uncharted Audio was a veritable tour de force straddling the line between perfectly crafted vocal pop and cerebral dancefloor electronics. Having torn the roof down at The Centrifuge’s 3rd Birthday Party in Berlin last year we are delighted to welcome him back for a romp in his home territory.

    Did DEBASSER really start the whole UK bass scene? You better believe it, when his critically-acclaimed release on NovaMute “Fat Girls” came out it caused a ruckus and endless inspirants, imitations and countless sub-genres. Having just released a new single “The Tingler” on his own WIDE Records, this is his first live outing for The Centrifuge and the excitement is already building to hear those basslines on that PA.

    Electro-pop noizenik RIVAL CONSOLES has just released his landmark 2nd album on Erased Tapes Records with an innovative viral campaign seeing each track released separately over a number of weeks. Now the album’s out! Listen, enjoy, then come and rave.

    VAETXH is a fast-rising star of bass and glitch. Having been discovered by The Centrifuge in 2010, his heady mix of laser-precision audio manipulation and body-spasmic bass frequency workouts is winning him fans across the globe. Not least record label bosses, who are queuing up to sign him. Come hear (and feel) what all the fuss is about!

    GARETH CLARKE is a master of melody like no other. Combining compositional virtuosity with dancefloor sensibility it’s no wonder why he is harbouring an impressive and growing legion of admirers comprised of the great and the good of forward-thinking electronic music.

  • TONIGHT – The Centrifuge Radio Show – Exclusive guest mix from Vaetxh (The Centrifuge / Tigerbeat6), plus Siriusmo competition

    This week, we’re very proud to have an exclusive guest mix from The Centrifuge’s resident glitchmeister – and recent addition to Tigerbeat6’s Andale! series – Rob Clouth aka Vaetxh. A master of glitched out production and heavy bass, Rob’s music as Vaetxh has as much to offer fans of Autechre and Alva Noto as it does fans of Vex’d and Kryptic Minds. You’ll be hearing a lot more from him over the next few months, and this 30 minute mix of his own material is a great place to start.

    In addition, we’re giving away 2 CD copies of my favourite album of the year so far, Siriusmo’s ‘Mosaik’. After his set at BLOC (one of the highlights of the weekend) there’s been a lot of talk about this Monkeytown signee, and you can get your own copy of the CD gratis if you tune in – and don’t worry if you miss the show, the competition will be open for a week for any archive listeners who feel they’ve missed out.

    In addition, we’ve new music from Burial, Beardyman, Ukkonen, SKatterBrain, Shankles, PILAR, Aleksi Perala, Dorian Concept, Lone, Modeselektor, They Live, and however many more I can fit in the space of two hours.

    Listen live on www.brap.fm, Thursday night, 10-12pm BST – or listen to the archive via The Centrifuge and Brap.fm sites, mixcloud.com/ursa, www.pfradio.com or direct via the iTunes podcast.

  • Icarus UK & EU Tour April / May 2011

    Icarus Tour 2011

    Booking Information on The Centrifuge Agency Website
    Full details on the Icarus Website

    Icarus – live shows in UK and Europe, April – May 2011

    In 2011, after a long hiatus, UK electronicistas Icarus set out in search of their first complete studio album in over 5 years (since The Leaf Label‘s “I Tweet the Birdy Electric“), only to emerge for a short tour throughout April and May. Icarus issue forth their barrage of sculpted hyperrythms and microtonal flutter in select locations throughout the UK and Europe.

    So far this year, Icarus have produced a flurry of remixes for the artists Inch-Time, Caribou and Eclectic Method featuring Chuck D. Imminently forthcoming is their collaborative limited-edition vinyl EP with Danish electronica duo Badun, with whom Icarus‘ musical affinity is clearly audible.

    Icarus‘ major project, the forthcoming album, Fake Fish Distribution, due towards the end of the year, is a peculiar undertaking, taking the form of a 1,000 limited-edition digital release in which each version is different from the last, each track interpolating through vast variations in structure and content as the versions are downloaded, to form a huge tapestry of variation from a single body of music. The album is being created new techniques using the software Max for Live, developed by Icarus during a residency at STEIM in the Netherlands.

    “Bown and Britton are craftsmen when it comes to building condensed and intricate sound formations, and while it is difficult to isolate the various sections of a piece, they collate them with precision.” - The Milk Factory

    “Picking up Kamikaze for a buck in the clearance bin of Amoeba Records back in 2001 was one of the best decisions i’ve ever made!” - Last FM commenter

    The Centrifuge label & agency showcase mix for Electronic Explorations.

    Compiled by missaw in Berlin, June 2010.

    The Centrifuge is a global artist collective interested in all forms of experimental and electronic music. It was formed in early 2007 by missaw and NeuteK whilst residing in Nottingham, UK. At the start it was just those two playing once a month in the back room of the now defunct Blueprint Nightclub.

    missaw would play some nice tunes and NeuteK would play a tracker liveset, or live coding, or maybe hacking dance mat software to make people fall over. Simple times. Captain Chaos and Sadistician of sister label Braincore Recordings also got involved and things were fun if a little inconsequential.

    Then the club got closed down, and we decided to organise events in places like London, Manchester, Leeds, Malta and Berlin. We started our free digital label in June 2008 and have put out 50 releases thus far, with approximately 100k downloads to date. 2010 has been a busy year for The Centrifuge so far, as the label HQ relocation to Berlin in January was accompanied by the announcement of an artist management & booking agency and a significant roster expansion.

    Most of the tracks in this selection for Electronic Explorations are fresh cuts from our label with a few two exclusive treats from our agency crew for good measure. Hope you enjoy!
