i'll add my recommendation to this show. i brought jt to cleveland for our monthly warm art night in september, and he absolutely destroyed the room. playing from final scratch, john dropped a blend of click tracks, detroit chords, lush pulsating layers, perlonesque beats, etc. complete with scratching. it was 3 hours of perfectly programmed madness, and he had the room screaming for more when he came off the decks.
definitely one to catch. -----Original Message----- From: Bryan Kasenic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 09, 2003 3:28 PM To: 313 Subject: (313) John Tejada in NYC this Friday FRIDAY OCTOBER 10 The Bunker Special guests: John Tejada (Palette, 7th City | Los Angeles) Sara Walker (Direct Drive, Static | NYC) DJ Ripley (SoFat, HavocSound, Deathsucker Records | NYC) John Tejada is one of the most innovative techno/house producers we've heard, and we're constantly playing his tracks at the Bunker. He's released about 8 albums and countless singles. Highly recommended if you like Dan Bell, Perlon tracks, Magda, Kompakt, designer techno ... or if you just like to jack on the dancefloor. John will be playing a Final Scratch set from about 1:30 until we all want to stop dancing. Behind the decks, Ripley gets music to trick your ass into thinking it's a brain, re-breaking bass and beats from jungle into dub, dancehall, hiphop, and experimental noise. On sunny days, Ripley spins rocksteady. Ripley wants everyone to dance, and she usually succeeds. Ripley spent most of her summer touring Europe, and her bag is surely full of amazing new records. She will be releasing a mix CD on Deathsucker Records soon. Sara Walker is one of the best electro/breaks DJ's in NYC, frequently igniting the dancefloor at Static events with her unique blend of all things dark and funky. This may well be your last chance to see her play a breaks set in NYC for a long time, as she is moving to Europe in early November. The last time Sara played the Bunker, the dancefloor erupted and we had one of our best parties ever. plus - Resident DJs: Movement, kleverVice, Spinoza Resident Visualists: Giles Hendrix, Chris Jordan the Bunker Fridays at SubTonic Lounge 9p-3a 107 Norfolk Street (downstairs) (212)358-7501 http://www.klever.org/thebunkernyc free, 21+ eclectic ecstatic party sounds
