I am so stoked to be returning to Afrika Burn next week, the Burning Man of Africa. Last year was a lot of fun, I wrote about it here and in case you missed it, you can check out the film I made here. This year we have created our own camp called Camp LED and we will be situated at 9ish and Binnekring (Esplanade for those more used to Black Rock City). I will be DJing at The Vuvu Lounge, Camp L.E.D. and The Succulents at various time during the week. I’m looking forward to hanging out with my South African crew some of which made it out to Burning Man USA last year. I’m also going to make it up to Johannesburg again on this trip and I’m looking forward to playing up there too. The best part of all this is that I get to miss the Big Fat Royal Wedding here in the UK. For more information or if you think you’re gonna make it out there this year, check out www.afrikaburn.com |

N.Y.C. D.I.Y. – FRANCI$CO FEAT NINELIVES THE CAT [AIRFIX021]
|
N.Y.C. D.I.Y. is the latest release from Franci$co featuring NineLives The Cat. Based in New York after leaving his native Australia, NineLives has been blowing up of late as part of punk outfit The Deathset and has also been working with the likes of Ninja Sonik on their recent Anxiety Attacks mix-tape in the US . Meanwhile Franci$co has been rapidly winning over fans with a string of edits and remixes and his energetic DJ sets. N.Y.C. D.I.Y. sums up the current cavalier spirit of underground electronic dance music with its slap-dash bouncing bass and DIY fresh ghetto beats. Remixes include Mickey ‘Magic’ Escobar‘s heavy electro blowout, with it’s respectful nod to Planet Rock whilst the ZAP! POW! DIE! mix slams things firmly into peak time, main-room business. Franci$co’s own Lazer Club mix takes the original up a few notches and the Mac The Hand mix punches out a 140bpm banger with slamming manic beats and crazy synths… |
