Hi again friends...
Just a final reminder for Friday the 13th at Sonotheque, the much awaited
Hefty Records spectacle featuring TELEFON TEL AVIV, SLICKER, and SHIN TASAKI
OF SPANOVA... But before we delve in deep with the details, a couple other
events that have just confirmed which were quite excited to pass along...

The IMMEDIATE ACTION 12" senes ran in summer/fall of 2000, released under
the premise of simply "getting the music out quick, in limited quantities
without promotion". In the musical spirit of the 12" run, Hefty Records
proudly presents IMMEDIATE ACTION night.
"Hefty Records didn't understand when it released the six Immediate Action
12-inches last year that it had established with it took Warp 10 years to
achieve, a defining, stereotype-free sound."

TELEFON TEL AVIV
(CHARLES COOPER & JOSHUA EUSTIS)

[HEFTY Records]
Fresh off a recent European summer festival tour, the TTA duo have been
quite busy promoting their new album Map Of What Is Effortless, released on
HEFTY Records. It?s been a long time since TTA last played in Chicago and
they are bound to create a buzz with this intimate session. The golden duo
of TTA are adored by music critics and have some of the most fanatical fans
we?ve ever seen! Recently branded by critics with the descriptive taggings
of ?deconstructionist R&B? or ?laptop soul?, TTA have been praised in
publications like: ROLLING STONE, ESQUIRE, FLAUNT, THE FACE, XLR8R, URB, NEW
YORK TIMES, etc. They have been featured on the ROLLING STONE ?Hot List? and
picked for the magazine?s ?Fresh Faces? section. In addition, they have been
specially selected for the 2004 edition of URB Magazine?s ?Next 100? artists
and NEW CITY noted them as one of the top 45 music acts in Chicago.
Having played high profile events such as Winter Music Conference, South By
SouthWest, Mutek, Love Parade, it will be a treat to see TTA play live in
this intimate environment. It?s been several months since their last
appearance in Chicago, so this one is not to be missed.
DJ SLICKER
(JOHN HUGHES)
- dj set - CHICAGO
[HEFTY Records]
--
SLICKER is John Hughes, owner of the bustling Chicago imprint HEFTY Records.
We All Have A Plan (HEFTY Records) is his new 2004 album and has been
praised in publications like: BILLBOARD, KEYBOARD, XLR8R, URB, GEAR, NEW
YORK TIMES, LOS ANGELES TIMES, etc. WAHAP is a pan-global, soul-jazz
masterpiece where SLICKER?s ambitious, soul-kissed vision is fully realized
thanks to contributions from legendary soul jazz/funk musicians
(PHILRANELIN, WENDELL HARRISON, KHADIJAH ANWAR), Ghanian Afro-Pop musicians
(DAN BOADI, JAMES CROMWELL) and Detroit hip hop MC?s (PHAT KAT and ELZHI of
SLUM VILLAGE), not to mention contemporary artists like TELEFON TEL AVIV,
LINDSAY ANDERSON (L?Altra, Telefon Tel Aviv). The album is a fusion of soul,
hip hop, pop, jazz, funk, electronica ? all making for a great album which
has been compared to the best moments of MASSIVE ATTACK. NEW CITY calls it?
genius from start to finish?. For this IA event, SLICKER is digging deep
into his collection and planning a burnin? DJ set of party jams and white
label beats for your enjoyment.
SHIN TASAKI of SPANOVA
- dj set - DIRECT FROM JAPAN
HEFTY Felicity/Japan Warner Music/Japan
--
On this evening, SHIN TASAKI, 1/2 of the Japanese superstar music duo
SPANOVA, will fly in direct from Japan for an intimate exclusive DJ set,
marking his Chicago debut! This will be a rare treat. Expect to hear classic
tunes that inspire and influence SHIN and SPANOVA --- from soul jazz to
downtempo to electronica to drum&bass. For those unfamiliar, SPANOVA have
released an amazing catalog of singles, EPs and albums for Japanese labels:
Warner Music and Felicity. The critics have favorably compared the duo to
other popular acts like CORNELIUS, AIR, CIBO MATTO, JAZZANOVA, MUM, EARTH
WIND & FIRE, SAVATH + SAVALAS, TORTOISE. Recently signed to HEFTY Records,
look for new SPANOVA music to be released on our label in early 2005.
