FREE DOWNLOAD: Âme – You.FM Clubnight [09-04-2011]

This deep duo is making the trek across the pond for a very special performance at E-villa, Baltimore’s newest home for EDM. The new Mt. Vernon venue is hosting a pre-valentines day ball on Saturday February 11th, 2012 featuring the FIRST EVER Baltimore appearance by German deep house & amp; techno artist Âme.

Statement from Press Release: Although the music of the night will be distinctly modern and forward-thinking dance music, the name “A Love Bizarre” is a reference to the classic ‘Sheila E’ song from 1984’s Krush Groove film. Produced by Prince, the song featured a video with an inspired club atmosphere: flirtatious, uninhibited, beautifully odd characters. “We’re working to create an atmosphere where people from any kind of background are invited. We look at nightlife differently than most venues. In many clubs, there’s only one performer – the DJ. We feel that everyone on our dance floor is a performer as we work together to create a vibe.” says Melissa Ravelo, who works with E-Villa in their nightlife promotions. (Russell Seaver)

Synth pop super group known as Cut Copy, have just released their third album entitled Zonoscope, via Modular Recordings, which features 11 original tracks that already include two hit singles, “Take Me Over” & “Need You Now”.  Even with its recent release, the album has already seen the likes of several quality remixes, mostly notably one done by Mylo of their first single, “Take Me Over.

The album features heavy elements of 80’s nu wave throughout the entire disc, but highlights like “Pharaohs & Pryamids” & “Corner of the Sky” explore a variety of dance styles while not straying too far from their catchy hooks.  More laid back cuts like “Where I’m Going” & “Alisa” remind me of cruising through the city on a warm summer night with no place to go.  One of my favorite tunes “Blink and You’ll Miss A Revolution”, is an upbeat 1980’s vocal anthem that easily could be a single & should be hitting dance floors across the states within a few weeks.  The last track of the album “Sun God” ,displays Cut Copy’s ability to extend past their catchy melodies into; long, extensive, spacey, 15 minute jam sequences.

2011 has already been a very busy year for Cut Copy, with several mainstream TV performances, one a few nights ago on “Late Night with Jimmy Fallon” , where an ape played drums with the band.  They also have joined fellow synth rockers, Holy Ghost, for a Nationwide tour which will make a stop in Washington D.C. (via the 9:30 Club) on March 29^th 30th, before heading to Philadelphia, Pa (via the TLA) on Thursday March 31st.  We hope you already have your tickets though, as all three shows have already sold out, except the DJ Set after the show at U Street Music Hall

.

However fear not, you’ll have a chance to catch both acts at this years Camp Bisco Festival in Upstate, NY on July 7^th-9^th featuring The Disco Biscuits, Bassnectar, Rusko, Skrillex, & Ghostland Observatory just to name a few.  For a full lineup, tickets, & more head over to www.campbisco.net

:::This event is ALL AGES:::

ODDSAC is a feature film collaboration between the band Animal Collective and filmmaker Danny Perez that was co-conceived by and stars Animal Collective, whose 2009 album “Merriweather Post Pavilion” was named album of the year by SPIN, Entertainment Weekly, and Pitchfork, and topped critic’s end of year lists worldwide. ODDSAC is a dense and surreal layering of audio and visual elements that eschews conventional narrative to create a visceral, immersive experience.

ODDSAC features an original score with new songs from the band and complex digital manipulation by Perez, a debut filmmaker and visual artist known for his concert projections with musicians such as Black Dice and Panda Bear. ODDSAC represents a new synthesis of music and film, a “visual album” whose songs will not be released in any other form. ODDSAC is the result of over four years of intense collaboration between Perez and the band.
