Hi,
Well, reading this list it seems that there's only people from US and UK
but, well, I hope this interests somebody:
In next days will be released *Palais*, the first CD of Madelman, a
young musician from Bilbo (Basque Country). Its label is Cosmos, from
Barcelona, the same people that have released works from Peanut Pie
(another techno band from Barcelona) and Alex Martin (*Iberian* when
played for F Communications).
Well, I'm listening the CD just now. It sounds so sweet, fine.
There's not only a single style, but all themes have a regular beat,
many smooth samples and a cool - cool ambiance. Ei, I'm not his manager
:) , I'm really enjoying it!!
He will play tomorrow at Sala Apolo, in Barcelona, into TechnoBAM
festival, with Ian Pooley, Conemelt, Soul Blaster and DJ Angel. Monday
will be the second session with Jedi Knights, Protozoo, Surgeon and DJ
Grau.
The organization is made by Advanced Music (say the Sonar Festival
creators). Barcelona and Catalonia region are (by now at less) the most
techno-active area in Spain. Some excerpts from the shedule for next
months are:
9-oct DJ Rolando (Underground Resistance, Detroit) Moog - Barcelona
11-oct Scan X and Lady Barbarella (F Communications) Florida 135 - Odena
12-oct Funk d'Void (Soma-Glasgow) Florida 135
16-oct Jeff Mills (Axis - Chicago) Moog and 19 at Blau (Banyoles)
30-oct Renie Pilgrem (London) Moog
2-nov Kenny Larkin (Art of Dance - Detroit) Florida 135
26/27-nov Laurent Garnier (F Communications - Paris) Moog
Well, that's all.
Excuse my poor english.
