loving the uber trancey new eulberg on traum, his kids-tv-show-in-koln new one on platzhirsch, and speicher 32 is wicked too? not sure which is the barsch and whioch the dahlback but im really getting back into buying tunes, and i excited! now all i need is somewhere to dance to it outside of my bedroom!

(sorry, just presuming you're still there. a friend's just moved to leeds so I want to visit.)

as for leeds, i think it blew itself up last bonfire night with rex the dog, tomas anderson, trentemoller and chloe all on the same day (with nathan fake and james holden either side of that weekend)

oops, turns out craig richards and magda are playing technique on feb 4th. its a horrible place, but still. ken ishii and dmx krew (?!) playing night before at superconductor. thats in a good place instead.
might be worth checking basics, asylum and darkside line ups as well, as stuff sort of comes on occasionally.

generally there is a glut of nights, with insane competition between them, i have no idea why.

barcelona, nitsa club, sala apolo

dominik eulberg 21/1
wighnomy bros 28/1

:( :( :( :(

eulberg on the 21st sounds the way to celebrate.

WOW.

either way, you should probably end up at kadahs by the corn exchange for mint tea c.5/6 am.

eulberg and ananda! ananda was playing at fabric on NYE but we were otherwise engaged. dont look gifthorses in the mouth!

I thought it was crap on my first listen but really got into it in the end.

a) the original
b) Eulberg
c) something you've never ever heard before

Really been into the "Issst" remix lately, love the way it gets more and more syncopated and then it's like something breaks in the track and it becomes full on breakbeat house.

does anybody have a higher batting average? he seems to consistently put out great stuff.

Thanks for mentioning this, it's great!

KLIKS PRESENT KOMPAKT
SATURDAY 18.03.06
CONCORDE2, BRIGHTON

http://kliks-net.com/

Main Room:
DJ KOZE (International Pony, Hamburg)
THE MODERNIST - live (Popular, Düsseldorf)
LEE SMITH (IDJ Magazine/kliks)

Bar:
MARK LERMAN (kliks)
CARL WICKER & GRAHAM SCOTT (kliks)

It does go on from midnight until 5am, with the option of staying open later if it is still busy. If it does close there are now a number of other bars and clubs in Brighton which stay open until later, and from then it is a simple matter of sleeping on the train/coach/plane/whatever. One of the bars is starting a 'minimal' session every Saturday from next month which goes from 3am until midday. Thank the lord for Tony Binge Blair.

Here is part of the press release, which explains about Koze’s DJ style. I’ve also heard him described as “acapellas over minimal”.

DJ KOZE:
Currently Germany's biggest DJ (voted DJ of the year for the last five years in the highly respected SPEX magazine), DJ Koze is without doubt the most formidably talented exponent of minimal turntablism in existence right now. A former runner up in the World DMC Mixing Championships, his jaw-dropping deck skills are in constant demand the world over. Renowned for his wildly eclectic, club-shattering musical selection, you're as likely to hear him spin the Beatles and Otis Redding as you are Plastikman, all tied together with blisteringly on-point technical skill. He's released a string of hit club records on Kompakt, including last year's acclaimed 'Kosi Comes Around' LP, and is also a member of Skint Records' hugely popular electro-disco act International Pony. As if that wasn't enough, he's also behind the chart-topping German Hip-Hop trio Fischbein. We await his debut Kliks performance with baited breath...

THE MODERNIST - live:
An undisputed legend of European dance music, Jorg Burger (aka The Modernist) started releasing records way back in 1988 with his long-time partner, Wolfgang Voigt (aka Mike Ink, founder of Kompakt). Over the next decade, the pair assaulted the world's dancefloors with a bewilderingly prolific surge of classic records, combining the raw intensity of early Detroit techno with their own unique brand of distinctly European, acidic trippiness. Under a plethora of aliases (including The Bionaut, Burger Industries, Autobianchi, and currently, Triola, plus many more) he pretty much defined what is now known as 'minimal', and is cited as the key influence by countless contemporary producers and DJs. Along with Voigt, he founded the Delirium record store in Cologne, which went on to form the basis of the Kompakt empire, as well as editing Dance Attack Magazine and releasing a bona fide mainstream smash LP on EMI (The Bionaut's 'Lush Life Electronica'). Burger's rich, timeless, elegant sound has yet to be surpassed by any of today's laptop generation, and his super-rare live performances have now reached near-mythical status. Don't miss the chance to catch a genuine pioneer in action.

LEE SMITH:
Co-founder of Kliks and original Brighton minimalist Lee Smith has been spotted face down in numerous ditches across Europe this year. Somehow, he always manages to rock the dancefloor and cobble together a coherent minimal reviews page for IDJ magazine, which you'll know is quite an achievement if you've ever seen him on a night out. He writes for loads of sites and music rags and is one of only four UK DJs to have played at Kompakt's seminal Total Confusion club in Cologne. He'll DJ for anyone who offers him a footlong Subway Sandwich and a couple of cans of Tennants.

FISCHMOB

i hope 3-12 clubbing catches on, ive never seen that kind of thing work outside of berlin

why must the handful of nights in the uk that promote this stuff have no coordination at all it seems!!!! someone gets flown over for kliks, then goes home, someone else comes over for technique in leeds, then goes home. surely it is logical for these people to stay and play a few dates? i bet no one else has booked koze to play anywhere...nearer me for instance, around the time hes here. can anyone prove me wrong?

of course, truly sensibly would mean "somewhere where i dont have to travel 1hr+ to see him", in my world.... ;)
