C156, live para mr.gasparov.com

This week we have a very special mix for you! It’s a live mix (as in computers, machines and violins) recorded by C156, a collective based in Barcelona which has been destroying dance floors in the last few months. They are unusual in the sense that their live is performed by four people simultaneously, playing synths, beat boxes, violin, percussion or voices. The result is a uniquely hybrid sound, with blends of Dubstep, Techno or Breaks, which is both intended for the dance floor as well as the brain!

So who are they? Non-other then Cauto (check his past interview & mix for mrgasparov.com), Dr. Res, The Gardener (AKA Amph) and Drome. If you live in Barcelona, or even if you don’t, it’s very likely that you heard their names, since all of them have been active in different underground fronts for many years. They now belong to the Disboot label/collective, a group of incredibly talented people who have been releasing some serious music lately.

Last year they released their first EP, which you can listen/buy here, and in February Disboot will be releasing the second C156 EP - 12″ and digital -, which includes the tracks ‘1,2,3,Oink’, ‘Can a Leprous be Trendy?’ and ‘Latin Mayhem’, all of which you can listen too in the mix below. I think in all of my last gigs I’ve played at least one of these tracks, so I’d definitely say that it’s very worth buying!

This time there’s no interview because there’s too many of them, but you can check Cauto’s interview since it focuses a lot on the C156 project. Moltes gràcies nois!

Mr.Gasparov/Ocvatpush - 1975 [steak001]

MR GASPAROV / OCTA PUSH - 1975, Steak House

Nos complace en DisBooT informaros este Ep de Mr. Gasparov & Octapush. 1975 es un tema que ha sonado mucho entre la crew de DisBooT y que por fín esta disponible en vinilo y mp3. Nos deja un regusto muy bonico

BOOMKAT SAYS:

“Monkeysteak’s long threatened Steakhouse Records finally precipitates it’s debut load with two tracks of hybrid dub-techno/2-step from Portuguese producers. Mr Gasparov hails from Lisbon and apparently uses a synth made from an old McDonalds till point, togther with graphics tablets and Midi-Controllers to manufacture a jumpy blend of hard-hitting subs and technoid 2-step on ‘1975′, think El-B meets Aphex Twin under a tropical sky. On the flip Octapush fuse UK Garage with skittering electronica and chanted tribal vocals on ‘Ai Nadia’, and itchin’ 2-step with female vocals on ‘Laika Likes It’. One for the rave, Dave, and fans of Untold, Atki2 or Bass Clef. Sick twelve!”

Filastine - Hungry Ghosts ( Cauto Rmx )[dboot002] 7 “
26.10.2009
The Third release from DisBooT, Barcelona’s subsonic flagship.
Filastine, globetrotting percussive beat-master and thrower of dirty bombs, presents ‘Hungry Ghosts’ perhaps the finest cut from his album ‘Dirty Bomb’, in a delicious collectable 7″ format for Disboot recordings. With fellow Disbooter Cauto working the B-Side remix, this release carries much more weight than it’s small format might suggest.
‘Hungry Ghosts’ eeks out of the speaker with stretched and warped melodies atop pumelling, percussive bass and drums. Filastine cuts, copies and mutilates the beat around the rapid fire vocals of Australian Wire MC, and Japan’s ECD to craft a song that transcends region and language to create something hybrid, global and incredibly danceable. Cauto’s remix re-dresses the song for the dancefloor, twisting the staccato riddims of the orifinal into a ghetto-tech / acid-tech sesnibility, guaranteed to ignite dancefloors from here to Timbuctoo.
When the going gets wierd, the wierd turn pro…+ info

Offshore - Black Destroyer Hill
28.10.2009
Offshore - presenting a new talent from the mean streets of Aberdeen, Scotland.
Offshore releases his debut single with Disboot recordings, the ‘Black Destroyer Hill’. Screwing together pulverating drums and wonky synthesizers, Offshore’s unique mix of hip hop, metal and aquacrunk set him apart from your standard beatmakers. From the lopey halfstep beats of ‘Black Destroyer Hill’ and the urgent dynamics of ‘Simsalabim’ this disc is tremoring with shockwaves of minimalistic hip hop riddims, cut apart by abrasive, metalic basslines and squashed synths.
Fans of Rustie, Jamie Vex’d and Hudson Mohawke will be grovelling at the heels of this burning hot disc, with it’s 3/4 circle hole sleeve designed and die cut by Offshore himself.+ info

De Cauto a Cautivador

Los responsables de Disboot me preguntan si me apetece escribir un post sobre el último EP de Cauto (‘Despertar EP’ . Disboot:001). Saben que la música de Cauto me tiene cautivado. Si esperas leer una mala crítica mejor busca en otro lado.

Más allá de etiquetas, géneros o estilos, las cuatro composiciones de ‘Despertar’ son sencillamente elegantes, sensibles y cautivadoras. La música de Cauto aglutina influencias de todo tipo que desembocan en una fuerza compositora capaz de erizar más de una piel. Este EP te traslada a paisajes sonoros lejos de la pista de baile. En mi opinión, es música de pausada escucha.

Lo mejor de todo es que este ni es ni será el mejor EP de Cauto. Lo mejor de Cauto es que su insultante juventud sólo nos permite vislumbrar, actualmente, el magnífico compositor que nos depara el futuro.

Con formación en música clásica, hijo del folk y la canción popular catalana, Cauto cautiva con su música, tanto en directo como enlatado. Espero dichoso el día que Cauto pueda llevarse de gira por el mundo a un cuarteto de cuerda y a otro de viento. Que tiemble el Palau de la Música.
