German Techno sensation Lützenkirchen signs with Nervous Records

Global release of debut artist/mix album “Nervous Nitelife: Lützenkirchen” due April 16

Rare North American appearance confirmed for February 27 @ Cielo NYC

Free Track Download:

Lützenkirchen – “Phuture Disco Vibes”

Nervous Records – one of dance music’s longest running and most respected labels – is pleased to announce the signing ofLützenkirchen – Munich’s foremost electro-techno exponent. The first product of this new relationship is the April 16 global release ofNervous Nitelife: Lützenkirchen. This special two-CD release features One Disc packed entirely with all Lützenkirchen tracks and a Second Disc featuring the best tracks from Great Stuff (Lützenkirchen’s home label) over the past few months.

Blending infectious, jacking techno grooves with dirty electro sounds and dashes of house, Lützenkirchen’s sound is electronic as they come, but with a real sense of funk that makes his music accessible to a wide range of DJs, clubbers and part-time dance music enthusiasts. From his huge remixes for the likes of John Digweed and Coburn to his outstanding 2008 artist album Pandora Electronica, the power and quality of his productions rarely slip. Meanwhile his acclaimed live sets continue to grow in reputation, his charismatic stage presence bringing a breath of fresh air to the usual limp and lifeless laptop workout. In recent years he scored a German Top 10 chart hit with the huge “3 Tage Wach” while putting out a prolific, consistent stream of cool and credible club tracks.

If you’re in NYC, please mark February 27 on your calendar for an explosive night of club music presented by Nervous Records. The label’s commitment to discovering new talent is the focus of this evening as Nervous presents an exciting double bill featuring a rare North American live performance from Lützenkirchen and the North American debut of Hungary’s Muzzaik (the talk of the most recent Amsterdam Dance Event).

DJ PAUL JOHNSON INJURED – BENEFIT EVENT IN CHICAGO ON 12/22

From Dani Deahl:

PAUL JOHNSON BENEFIT

For those of you who don’t know who Paul Johnson is, he is quite literally a Chicago treasure and an icon for house music. The creator of mega-hits like “Get Get Down”, Paul’s music has shaped the history of the genre not only here in Chicago, but across the world.
Due to a tragic car accident, Paul is in the hospital with a broken hip and spine and is now awaiting surgery to have his right leg amputated. According to those close to him, he will then undergo a few months of rehab and will hopefully return to the music industry.
TONIGHT, Wednesday, December 22nd, Smartbar in Chicago will be hosting a benefit with Farley Jackmaster Funk, Stacy Kidd, Glenn Underground and others. A $5 door donation is requested to help Paul with his mounting medical expenses.
If you are unable to come to the event, they are taking Paypal donations via 5 Magazine’s website.
You can also leave some words of encouragement on Paul’s Facebook page.

Dec. 22nd / $5 / 10PM-4AM / Smartbar / 3730 N. Clark

*******************
Bass Kleph (AKA Stu Tyson) is an artist you’re gonna start hearing a lot more about. The Sydney, Australia native has been taking the industry by storm with his Beatport #1 and mid-year chart topping remix of Joan Reyes’s “Shakedown; the club and radio pop smash $pend My Money (feat Stellar MC); a top 20 Beatport main-chart hit with “Keyboard Cat” remixes of acts like Green Velvet and Sarah McLeod and the continued success of his own label – Vacation Records (and new sister label Exit Row) – and its crew of producers like Wolfgang Gartner, Micky Slim, Mowgli. The label’s fans stretch from the stadium players like John Aquaviva, Crookers, Rene Amesz, Mark Knight, and Kissy Sell Out to the brightest lights of the techno underground like Alex Kenji, Popof, and Fergie.
 
As you can see, 2010’s been an extremely busy and successful year for Bass Kleph.  Coming off a tour (with Afrojack) in support of his new Ministry of Sound Australia’s Guide To The Underground compilation and earlier gigs in venues from Fabric UK to Tunning Hall Moscow and Baby Face China, Bass Kleph is now preparing for his first jaunt across North America with stops through Vancouver, San Francisco, Los Angeles, El Paso, Miami and St. John’s, Newfoundland. 
 
Bass Kleph’s been practicing his craft forever. Most kids are still in school at age 15, but as a teenager Bass Kleph was touring Australia and New Zealand as the drummer of a hugely successful three-piece rock act, Loki. Playing live in grubby rock venues gave him his earliest understandings that there’s a dynamic to making crowds dance. A catchy rhythm won’t catch without the hypnotism of an irresistible hook – but then even the most nagging hook won’t shuffle the feet until it’s bent out of shape by the thunder of a serious rhythm section. Loki imploded eventually, the inevitable result of the music industry trying to screw all it could out of the band’s three teenage members. Bass Kleph left, determined that he wouldn’t taken in by the empty promises of the industry again – but also that next time round he wanted to do it differently. A more electronic sound, focused on his new obsession, DJing.
 
That was 15 years ago. Bass Kleph’s been DJIng just about weekly now for 10 years – and the DJ booth is still one of his favorite places to be. He started in breaks, but soon pushed aside that genre’s limitations to add new, more subtle shades to his dancefloor palette – hypnotic techy grooves, jackin’ electro, and the curveballs that distinguish a real musician from the average gigging DJ. He’s also big on making his own mashups for the purpose of unleashing on unsuspecting crows. As such, we convinced Bass Kleph to allow us to share some of his weapons with you. The first bootleg combines Deformation “Weakness” + Bloody Beetroots & Steve Aoki “Warp” for a new track called “Weakness For Warp.” This track has never before been released and it’s now free for spreading like a thick coat of bass.
