Overview: 2 Months in Melbourne and Victoria Dec 2010/Feb 2011 – 12 Shows

vdmokstati — Mon, 07 Feb 2011 03:24:32 +0000

This coming wednesday I’m flying out of Melbourne(Victoria) where I had spend last 2 months performing at numerous events and festivals. Next segment of my journey will be spent in South East Queensland @Earth Freq Festival which takes place over 11th -14th Febuary, followed by a Earth Freq Afterparty @ Barsoma on the 18th of Febuary in Brisbane. My Melbourne journey is not finished by any means though, as I will return to Melbourne for the show on 25th of Febuary @ Bimbo Deluxe and many others. More on that later.

I thought to use this opportunity to give quick overview of events that I have been involved in the last 2 months around Melbourne and Victoria and give my kudos to all the people that have supported me on this journey which resulted in this amazing ride.

My very deepest thanks goes out to Rob Horner – Pyrodynamics (Playspace, Bruinswick) and all Playspace crew for being such amaizng hosts and great friends, My bestest friend Tomwana for being super awesome as he is, Javier – Loco – VJ BlueMD for being a wonderful host and great friend that he is, JimBob, Lili/VJ Inexile, VJ Netzair, Ozzy(Tribeadelic), Wikita crew, Local Produce Crew, Sean Healy (Plug n Play Melbourne), VJ Dropbear/Spoonbill (Omlette Records), Andy(Big Red Bus), VJ Lightsoljah, Everyone @ Tetris Studios, Rainbow Serpent and all the amazing and wonderful people that I have met and ran into on my journey.. more on that as I write this.

10th December 2010 -MyAeon
My First show was on 10th of December @ MyAeon Bruinswick. Nice little cozy venue with great atmosphere and is a known spot for numberous electronic events ran by MyAeon or hosted by Big Red Bus monthly events. That particular event was a great night featuring : Dimitri, Tristian Boyle, Interpulse, Ozzy, Auricle and myself (vj vdmo Kstati on visuals). Thanks to Steven for his easy going and professional approach.

11-12 December -Local Produce v4

Absolutely amazing event! Representing the best what Australia has on offer within Electronic Scene, I predict that this event will grow into an established foundation for years to come. I’m glad to be associated with them last year and highly recommend for all Australian Electronic Music producers to let them know about yourself and for All supporters to get the chance to listen to some fresh local Australian Electronic Music in many of its forms. Thanks to all the Local Produce crew for they vision and support, I’ll be back later this year for sure!

16 December 2010- Kent Street , Fitzroy Plug – n Play -Melbourne
This was great little event put together by Plug N Play Melbourne. I would like to personally thank Sean Healy for allowing me to showcase my stuff and can clearly state that its a lovely event to do for any visual performers or electronic artists. Look for many more of these to come. Full support!

17-18 December 2010-Summer Solstice – Re-Ignition 2

Multi day event brought to you by Wikita collective. Simply awesome fun and amazing talent represented at the festival. I had VJ’ed on Saturday night for the peak of the festival and it was great experience. Much love to this crew. Look forward to work with those guys for years to come. They got it going on!

30th December -01 January 2011 -Tribadelic NYE Australia

Tribeadelic is a an institution in Victoria. Held every year for over last decade, its a popular choice for many to partake in event that selebrates great music and also symbolises transition to a new year. Was amazing to catch up with many of my best friends from North Queensland and Around Australia and would personally like to thank Ozzy for a great opportunity. Will be happy to make many returns to this festival. Full support.

6th January 2011 - Racket (r6) @Miss Libertines, Melbourne

Racket is a monthy Audio Visual night put on on every first thursday of every month @ Miss Libertines by Racket crew. Great event, which attracts fresh electronic and experimental Audio Visual arts and is generally aimed to support the local scene while making it affordable for anyone to attend. Make sure to keep an eye on this event as it presents some of the foundations for where Audio Visual arts can venture as they mature. Full support and personal thanks for my Bro Netz for opportunity!

07 January 2011 Tribeadelic Afterparty@Prince of Whales Bandroom- St Kilda – Melbourne
I wont hide the fact, but Im very much an after party specialist For the last few years I found myself performing at most afterparties throughout Australia for such events as Winter Solstice, Landcrabs, Earth Freq, Rainbow Serpent…I didnt see why Tribeadelic had to be an exception. Was a great night and I quite enjoyed performing for the first time @ Prince of Whales venue. I have to note that production management @ the venue are very responsive, easy going and very professional with – “”Can Do!” attitude, which is very nice to work with. Was a pleasure to be part of it and jam with Shrooms who covered part of thye night as well. Thanks bro.

21st -24th January 2011 – Rainbow Serpent -Beaufort -Australia (3 sets)

@ Rainbow Serpent 2011: vdmo Kstati & BlueMD

Rainbow Serpent is an amazing Festival. Full stop. If you have never been, do yourself a favour and come along. Its epicness and amazing vibes are legendary. Over duration of few night I had performed 3 sets; 2 @ Sunset Stage with Big Red Bus crew and once @ Performers Space on Sunday with Pyrodanamics Fire Performers.
I could go on about this festival for hours, but in a nutshell, you have to be there to believe it!

28 Janaury 2011 – Rainbow Serpent Afterparty @Brown Alley (2 sets)
being the afterparty specialist that I am, I coudlnt miss out on the Rainbow Serpent after party action. Same as I did last year in 2010, this time event has been booked for Brown Alley – great electronic music establishment in Melbourne, Rainbow Serpent was a splendid display of talent spread across 3 rooms where I VJ’ed as 10.30-12.15 Main Room: with Jonny Mac & Pena Omlette Records Room: Mollusk 4am-5am. My Set with Mollusk would probably my best set I have ever done. Very proud of that one.

04 Febuary 2011 Loop Bar , Melbourne Australia
My first VJ set @ The Loop from 10pm-3am. Since I come across Loop Bar online few years ago, it has become my mission to play there, and last friday, this dream has come true. I absolutely love that venue, its everything that any VJ could ever wish for, professionally set up space with dedicated projectors across the venue with great infrastructure ready to go, great attitude and respect towards artists – infact all the things that you’d wish every venue had, – LOOP BAR does!
Performed a set to a failry interesting selection of music which mainly consisted of house, disco, electro and some funk, – everyhting worked out great and I had recieved some positive comments about it, so can’t complain. Overall the venue itself gets full 5 stars for its awesomeness. Look forward to many more returns.

SPEKTRE (RESPEKT / UK)
It’s the vision of successful producers/djs Paul Maddox and Filthy Rich, who came together through a bond of minimal techno, and a willingness to experiment unmercifully with new sounds. Unsettling any crowd that stands in their way, with their razor-sharp beats and explosive chemistry, their releases and live sets have been menacing dance floors ever since their project was born. Stacking up an intimidating amount of industry knowledge and skill between them, the Spektre monster is storming from strength to strength, taking no prisoners… Filthy Rich has released countless successful tracks as well as gaining the support of top name DJs, whilst Paul Maddox has been fiercely producing music since the age of 15. Although coming from two very diverse musical backgrounds, their love of minimalism and attraction to cutting edge technology created a lethal combination.
Spektre
Their sinful sounds draw inspiration from early R&S releases, Joey Beltram, right through to modern masterminds such as M.A.N.D.Y, Plasmik and Trentemoller. They use their combined experiences of minimalism to produce dark sinister sounds mixed in with twisted vocals and unnerving foundations, whilst remaining accessible to the crowds. Connoisseur of the scene Oliver Huntemann, snatched up Spektre’s early releases for his own label “Dance Electric.” Since then the pair have earnt admiration and support from Sven Vath to Tim Sheridan, Audiojack to Fergie and the world over!

Spektre have been unleashing their dirty live sets in clubs up and down the country, casting their spell on thousands. With their insatiable energy for touring, 2008 sees their unique sound reaching the shores of South America, Russia & Ukraine, with a album showcase performance at this summers Glade Festival, there is no doubt this year will be as full of the same hectic gig schedule as the last. Expect to witness their undefined sets storming through clubland and expect to walk away breathless!

PHIL K (MELB)

As overused as the term ‘legend’ is in dance music, it’s worthy in the case of Phil K. The quintessential DJ’s DJ, Phil manages to balance technical dexterity (and he is a whiz) with what the dancefloor wants, a double threat that has set him apart all these years.
Before the term “house music” was even coined and when most of todays clubbers were still watching “Playschool” Phil was plying his trade at parties around Melboune. In the nineties Phil managed to play every noteworthy club night in Melbourne and supported just about every International DJ that toured that decade. Working at legendary record store DMC Records in Melbourne Phil set up Zero Tolerance Recordings and started to put Australia on the map internationally with his take on underground electronic music. His own project on the label with Andy Page known as Hi Fi Bugs is a great example of the sound they were pioneering. The track “Lydian and the Dinosaur” is widely regarded as a defining moment in breakbeat music and is still one of the most collectible 12″ records to come out of Australia.

In 2002 after having a few remixes, singles and tours under his belt he released Balance 4 which was critically acclaimed and was voted in the top 10 compilations of that year by UKs DJ Mag. His world went totally haywire after that moment, going on to take out various awards including Australias Best DJ and an award for a Lifetime Contribution to Australian Dance Music amongst a swag of others.

The rest of the noughties was a never ending worldwide tour schedule leaving very little time for Australian audiences as his commitments forced him to move overseas. He performed just about everywhere he ever dreamed of playing and many places he had never heard of. Some notable performances include events such as Glastonbury Festival, SONAR, Big Day Out and at some of the biggest clubs in the world including Fabric, Womb, MOS and a countless haze of others. In between the touring Phil found time to keep recording as various artist names, but it was as Lostep with Luke Chable that they created another seminal record called “Burma” which was included on Sasha’s “Involver”LP. “Burma” led to a recording contract with Global Underground and the LP “Because We Can” was released in 2005.

Another area of interest became apparent and it was in the area of DJ technology. Phil’s now legendary relationship with Pioneer Electronics began with a trip to Tokyo showing their engineers the things they thought their equipment couldn’t do as well as redesigning the EFX500 to become the EFX1000. Phil has had input into most of the machines that most DJs use everyday and his skills on these products along with James Zabiela (who was one of Phil’s early “students” in the use of effects) is famous worldwide. He has been called a “lost jedi” by Tom Middleton and taken the likes of Meat Katie, Anthony Pappa, Chad Jackson, Dave Seaman, Adam Freeland and a battalion of other students and notables through the finer points of key mixing and digital effects mixing. The reason he is regarded as the DJs DJ.

Phil is now regarded as one of Australia’s most successful and respected DJs ever and is back residing in his home town Melbourne, content and happy that he has achieved much of what he has set out to do in his music career. His passion for travelling has definitely wained, but his passion for music and DJng remains just as strong. When you watch and hear him play you can hear and see the 25 years of influences and experience at work. Genre-defying programming, laced with incredible technicalities that can be subtle or “blow the roof of” kind of large, Phil is a true musician in a 21st century kind of way. He currently performs regularly at venues such as Brown Alley and La Di Da in Melbourne and Chinese Laundry in Sydney amongst others and at very select interstate and international destinations.

DIGITAL DIVIDE
Digital Divide is formed by two of Brisbane’s finest up & coming DJ’s, Manesh & Tekka. Both Manesh & Tekka share a love for all things minimal and techno, combining their skills to bring the easily recognizable sound of Digital Divide. 2009 saw Digital Divide smash into the Brisbane dance scene, securing a residency at the notorious SAMPLE – Not For Resale parties at 12 Lounge. Following their first appearances at SAMPLE, the two boys were booked by Brisbane and interstate promoters, such as, Let’s Get Minimal, Soundtrap (ACT), Jack’d, UDP, Elements, Alchemy, Divided, Praxis, Metric and played at Secret Sessions Festival 2009. Digital Divide secured international gigs at Yumla Nightclub in Hong Kong, headlining the ‘Techno – Brisbane, Australia Style’ party with Robohan (LGM), supported by Yumla resident Wendy Wenn [HK].

TRANCEDUCER
Programmed with a deep musical passion, diligent drive and natural manner, Tranceducer is highly regarded throughout Australia’s dance music industry. Tranceducer’s dedication to share music that thoroughly fulfills and surprises has him regularly included on Brisbane’s biggest dance line-ups. Adaptable to any environment, Tranceducer regularly appears at the finest clubs and festivals and has held his own when supporting many international dance legends. As well as a constant gigging schedule, 2010 sees the conductor enter the studio to craft his own dance floor ammunition. This will see him armed and loaded to execute his primary function: converting musical energies into dance floor focused sets of techno, trance, tech-house and darker progressive house.

STUART WILD
Over the past seven years, Stuart’s dance music has travelled many stylistic grounds. His latest approach manages to keep the best aesthetics from each, delivering them as sheets in an all-encompassing layercake of dance floor focused techno.

Taking advantage of today’s technology, Stuart mixes up to four tracks at once (plus loops & FX) and has been known to hammer up to 40 songs into a 90 minute set without it feeling squashed. Maintaining friendship with the concepts of journey and transition, Stuart’s only agenda is to keep you in the groove, and on the floor.

This persistent focus has seen Stuart share lineup space with influential international acts such as John 00 Fleming, Perry Farrell, Raja Ram, Propellerheads, Shpongle/Hallucinogen, Maetrik, Nick Sentience, Mark Henning, Artifakt, DJ Krush and many more.

DJ ADAM SWAIN
It takes a certain enthusiasm and man to willingly spend hour after hour with a beer in one hand and some music in the other, yet never tire or waver from the end goal of keeping those around you entertained.

Some DJs prefer the opposite – happy to keep their head down and plug away, letting the dance floor take care of and enagage with itself, where others are mad enough to jump out from the safety of the booth to make themselves the life of the party and much more than a music delivery system. Adam Swain has always fitted comfortably in the latter category – as passionate a clubber as he is a DJ, like most party animals he truly appreciates the power of a solid warm up, and having built a reputation in the crucible of such challenging early slots, Swain is reaching beyond with his trademark blend of emotional, organic, deep and rolling tech house that’s as relevant at the beginning of the night as it is in the middle or at the end.
RICH CURTIS
Rich Curtis wears many hats, but all are woven from a thread of consistency and quality forging a sound which is always fresh, always epic, and faithfully sitting at the big room end of progressive and tech house: Hat 1 “DJ”: Resident at Empire, Tonic Lounge and later in 2010, Luna Loca. Guest at Family, The Met, Barsoma, Electric Playground, Birdee Num Num, Mass, GPO, Winter Sound System Festival and Future Music Festival as well as a monthly radio show “Resolutions” on http://www.insomniafm.com

Hat 2 “Promoter”: Host (since 2007) of the Ulterior, House Arrest and Embrace nights under the banner of the Ritual Events showcasing Hernan Cattaneo, Anthony Pappa, Charlie May, Jim Rivers, Reset Robot, Henry Saiz and many more! Hat 3 “Producer”: firmly rooted in underground prog tech / tech-house, Rich’s first EPs will be released on Replug Records and Elektrax Progressive in late 2010″

VERTICAL TRANSPORT
Vertical Transport is a Dj / turntablist / producer and promoter of Deep Space Entertainment. With over 10 year’s experience performing & promoting events he has supported some of the biggest names in the electronic world; Artists such as – Ferry Corsten, Skool of Thought, Loopus in Fabular, Freestylers, Dj Hyper, Concord Dawn… the list goes on and on….

Vertical, as a Dj is very well known for his crafty skills on turntables and has played for countless amounts of Clubs, Doofs, Festivals, Radio stations etc. VT will often drop massive FX in on top of tracks and samples that have either politically suggestive and or spiritual themes. VT’s also known to drop in anything from Minimal to Dub-Step, Psy or Breaks, however his main style of beats he’s best known for are Dark Psy Break beats. This enables VT to venture anywhere within the boundary’s of Broken beats and Psy-Trance and depending on the mood of the crowd, will often lean more towards one or the other…

WERK-E
From an early age Werk-E has been heavily influenced by the sound of hip hop and grime. After many years of honing various forms of electronic music behind the decks he has focused his energy purely on dubstep, instantly being attracted to the heavy basslines and rolling melodies.

Whether it be chill or up-front, Werk-E has developed his own distinct style of mixing and is always found dropping the freshest beats and crowd pleasers. His versatile musical background also allows him the ability to turn his hand to various styles of electronic music including progressive psytrance, breakbeat and anything driving and ‘four to the floor’. Whether unleashing his frequencies indoors or outdoors, Werk-E is always known to stand and deliver surgical precision and unrivalled energy behind the decks.
