as of june 12th, fugari djs renochild, fidel bistro, ron d core, and the girl wonder will be on the turntables every sunday at nublu -- i.e., they're the people who throw the late nite parties with me
renochild plays broken beats and hacienda classics -- not dissensus stuff per se -- but really excellent broken beat -- very mushroom orientated -- all kinds of noises and polyrhythms in the music -- groovy basslines -- there's an outside chance that he'll convert me to this music, i.e., his take on the music* -- he's best heard at parties or places like nublu where he has a dancing crowd to work with
fidel bistro and ron d core play a mixture of stuff -- all of it "house" broadly defined -- everything from disco and reggae up through neo-post-punk and, for lack of a better term, broken beats
the girl wonder plays rare grooves
and the live act on sundays will be this act known as the "real live show" -- i believe it's some kind of live hip hop band or something (haven't seen them perform yet) -- and the mc is malik from london
---------------------------------------------------------------
i'm not a big fan of minimal techno . . . . however, if you're into that kind of thing (or even if you're not), then you should check out dj hard edge at nublu this coming sunday, june 5th -- his tracks are loads better than anything else i've heard in this genre -- plus he's like 50 years old or so, wears sun glasses, stoops awkwardly over the turntables, and doesn't bother mixing, all of which i think virtues in this particular context -- i.e., he's the kind of dj you check out b/c he's clearly got his own private muse when it comes to selecting records -- i.e., very distinctive minimal techno sound -- i.e., it's strictly about his ear for the genre -- and it's his last show before he goes on tour with the brazilian girls -- and yes, the rhythm section of the brazilian girls performs live
----------------------------------------------------------------
and then every tuesday at nublu the best band in nyc performs = KUDU
-----------------------------------------------------------------
nublu is located at 62 Avenue C b/w 4th and 5th streets -- look for the blue light
------------------------------------------------------------------
*i'm agnostic and relatively ignorant when it comes to current music -- grime vs ragga vs uk garage vs dubstep vs broken beat vs nyc neo-post-punk -- i like all of it in this or that measure, but am not really down with any of it -- i remain fully enamored w/ 89/92 sounds (junglistic hardcore and balearic) and my only real ambition in life is to acquire large quantities of such music and then -- very improbably, fantastically -- launch the american equivalent of the northern soul scene, i.e., a late nite scene based on sounds imported from another country's past ----- i.e., i say this only half in jest
