Sticker Love & World Domination

These two pictures recently taken by his girlfriend Franzi have been sent to me via Rüdiger Beckmann and everytime I see these stickers are still around although I'm not playing at Meaniebar no more and stopped spreading these more than a year ago I'm quite astounded how many are still visible in the streets of Hamburg. If you see any baze.djunkiii-related stickers in Hamburg, somewhere else in Germany or even the world feel free to take some pictures, let me know where you took it and send it in via email - your pic is to be featured on this page for sure.

"They Say House Is A Feeling" hiess es vor Jahren einmal in den Vocals eines Tunes eben dieses Genres und um eben jenes Feeling, den speziellen Groove und den Sex von House Music geht es in den zwei Stunden dieser Sendung. Ob die gespielten Tracks nun brandaktuell oder liebgewonnene Klassiker sind, spielt wie gewohnt keine Rolle - wichtig ist nur: Es geht um House!

What About Tonality?

As a person who's been brought on electronic music from day dot, not able play an instrument or to read sheet music two incidents of the last weeks made me think about different ways of approaching music production, especially electronic music production as this is the field I work in when doing music.
First incident happened when I was in the studio of Herr Brandt of Sonnenbrandt-/ The Convent-fame which is packed with loads of analogue and midi gear - working on ideas for a specific project he was playing a bassline on one of the synths and thinking about how he once learned harmonics and how all these tones work together theoretically. While doing that I - neither trained in harmonics nor in the use of a fingerboard - was fooling around with another synth, not a fixed idea in mind but sth. vague I'd like to add to this bassline, just trusting my ears and surely breaking all harmonic rules but suddenly it worked out and everything was fine.
Incident two happened last friday, working on a remix with The Crystal Apes - the original song was sth. like 120 bpm but we sped the parts up to 152 bpm which changed not only the sound of the original vocal parts but the whole harmonic structure which is understood. Tintin, the bands vocalist, recognized some dissonant sounds in the used string and orchestra samples and was willing to correct those but not able to as she would've needed somewhat like a third of fifth part of a note and was quite surprised as I told her that harmonics and tonality are not necessarily important in electronic music as long as the tracks as a whole works out right.
I know that some ppl even are making a fuzz about doing their DJ-sets like what they call "mixing in key" but is electronic music really about that? Having a look at the roots of the electronic music scene composers and producers were trying to create something new which is based on noises, found sounds, samples, a new experimental way of aural excitement, sound to please not only ears and brain but also the body if cranked up to a high level - I'm talking club or rave level here -, non-music to many who experienced these new world for the first time. These sonic worlds have been explored for decades now but still we have seen - or heard - only a small percentage of what is possible, we should still be curious about what might be happening next instead of trying to follow old formulas although these basics are useful in their own right. We've left tonality and harmonics behind, now we should be ready to explore what's way beyond.

baze.djunkiii Charts 12/2010

01. Rob Stalker / Bruce / Bassbottle - The Heart Banditoz EP [Sonic Speed Records 002 Promo]
See review for details...

02. Steve Bug - My Sweet Vital Angel / As It Was [Ovum Recordings 209]
I'm a big fan of Steve Bug's musical work anyway but for some reason I hardly feel any of his productions that are not released via his own imprints. This one's an exception from the norm bringing you two pieces of quality TechHouse - "My Sweet Vital Angel" is a great uplifting tune with oldskool'ish stabs and vocal bits able to set any floor on fire whilst "As It Was" is on a hell of a hypnotic tip and well pleasing DJ fodder for prime time moments.

03. Jimi Tenor - Take Me Baby [Decks Classix 010]
Oh how I loved this one when it was originally released back in 1995 - a huge hit and one of the first records to introduce electronic dance music from Finland to a wider audience. For the reason that I was still at school and short of money I never got hold of the original pressing back in these days so I'm quite happy that this anthem is available again.

Is There Life On Mars?

This question is not to be answered here now nor in the nearest future but as NASA scientists discovered a bacteria here on earth - in California's Mono Lake to be more specific - that is able to use arsenic instead of phosphorus in its DNA blocks our view on what life is or what it's basic components are undergoes a drastic change these days.

Vincenzo - The Clearing [Dessous Recordings 100 Promo]

On the promo circuit now via Dessous Recordings is the labels first three digit release as they've reached their cat.no. 100 with this one. Responsible musicwise is Vincenzo, part of the Dessous Recordings-stable from day dot who announces his forthcoming 2011 album with this 12". "The Clearing is - no matter if we're talking the original or the so-called "Dub" - a warm, embracing piece of House music with floating string arrangements creating a nice overall feel and a timeless attitude. On the flip we see Ian Pooley at the controls for a quite uplifting remix serving a slightly oldskool'ish vibe and classic Piano chords for those who know. Nice one.
