PHON.O (Carsten Aermes) live pa
shitkatapult ? cytrax ? onitor - meteosound
*** BERLIN***
DEBUT NORTH AMERICAN TOUR AND CHICAGO PERFORMANCE
As a mainstay of T.Raumschmiere?s SHITKATAPULT juggernaut, with releases &
remixes on Kit Clayton?s CYTRAX and the Kompakt affiliated ONITOR, Carsten
Aermes a.k.a. PHON.O?s hi-caliber musical pedigree doesn?t even begin to
describe the aural intensity of his live performance where ?he manages to
harness whatever stately ideals he can recall and delivers a staunchly
digital and itchy, yet deeply moving set.? A very rare stateside appearance
and Chicago debut.
?The big city often leads to encounters with all kinds of shady
characters... Moving to Berlin, Phon.o found himself misled, used and abused
by the notorious big rock'n roll swindler, T.raumschmiere, who connives him
into joining his gang. This dubious alliance nonetheless yielded the
hedonistic, shuffling, post-processed party plate by the cute title of
"Bockflinten e.p." (Shitkatapult Records), reminiscent of the sticky and
warm summer nights of his youth. This Berlin man has the digestion of a
power plant and a rectum like pliers; one with which you could tweak the
Eiffel tower. With that he serves up crude raw materials consisting of
Hiphop and Breakbeats, Techno and Dub which become raucous monsters of an
intimidating size.?

IRIS SOUNDSYSTEM (DJ Joseph + Eric H) fx enhanced dj set/live pa
iris recordings - voltage - hotflush uk - inspirit uk
Be prepared as the duo of DJ Joseph & Eric H, Chicago's top 2 step/UK garage
production team, bring their dancehall-style live/DJ performance to FUNK the
MENTAL: mashing-up 2 step, brokenbeat and dub in a tag-team DJ set, with a
storm of dubwise FX and laptop full of samples. Their studio work has
garnered rave reviews (in both URB & XLR8R magazines for their 2002 12"
release "Upstate/The Task"), infusing London-town sounds with strains of
Detroit synths, Moodyman deep grooves and an extra heavy dose of dub. Recent
days have seen Iris remixes for San Fransisco's Voltage Records and the UK's
Inspirit Music, as well as a forthcoming single on Hotflush Records UK.
