Lusine MUTEKLIVE031
May 30, 2009 // Live in Montreal
Lusine performed in the intimate Savoy room of the Metropolis, as part of a Decibel festival showcase. Producing music for over 10 years now, with steady releases on Ghostly International as well as on numerous compilations, Lusine's style embodies warm, melodic as well as abstract compositions. His last MUTEK performance came right before the release of his fantastic new full-length, A Certain Distance, in September 2009, and concordantly gives you a nice taste of what the producer's latest offering is all about.
Brendon Moeller MUTEKLIVE028
May 30, 2009 // Live in Montreal
Coming back again Saturday's PIKNIC 1 at MUTEK_10, we come to New York-based Brendon Moeller's stellar and very memorable mix. Another highlight for the team this year, Moeller artfully blended influences such as dub, techno, jazz, and, of course, baaaass in a set that really got the crowd moving.
Brendon was kind enough to provide us with a few words about his set at MUTEK, complete with a tracklisting for those that want to dig deeper:
Pilooski MUTEKMIX005
May 27, 2009 // DJ SET IN MONTREAL
Taking a little break from minimal, we dip into the world of disco, with Parisian re-edit master Pilooski. As the final act of MUTEK_10's Wednesday night Nocturne, Pilooski was the perfect foil for the playful atmosphere there - audience in coloured jumpers, making blue paper airplanes, playing 4-way table tennis all in yellow, or stepping into the red-room with projected moving targets taunting players sporting suction cup guns. Sounds confusing? Well, Pilooski held it all together with his old disco gems redone with a smooth electro sheen.
Ernesto Ferreyra MUTEKLIVE027
May 29, 2009 // Live in Montreal
Rewinding to MUTEK_10's Friday night Nocturne, we venture into the intimate Savoy room of the Metropolis, where the Cynosure label was out celebrating its own 10th anniversary in full force. Those who were fortunate enough to cram their way in undoubtedly remember this as a night of relentless partying, sweat-on-the-walls dancing, and general minimal mayhem. Celebrating the label that helped propel his brand of techno to a larger audience, Ernesto brought his unique mix of Latin influences and Northern minimalism to a very appreciative crowd.
Thomas Fehlmann MUTEKLIVE026
May 30, 2009 // Live in Montreal
After a much-needed break following the intense celebration that was MUTEK_10, we're proud to announce the return of our MUTEKLIVE podcast series! To kick off the fall we're bringing out Thomas Fehlmann's live daytime set from the MUTEK@Piknic event on Saturday, May 30, 2009. One of the team's personal highlights, Fehlmann brought his very special kind of dub-techno to an enthusiastic crowd during one of the few sunny days of the MUTEK_10 festival week.
