Friday the 13th FIXED - KLAXONS & BONDE DO ROLE

Call it a match made in mish-mash heaven. The stage at Studio B will be quite eclectic tomorrow night when Brit psychedelic sensations KLAXONS are preceded by Brazilian baile-funk faves BONDE DO ROLE. With SURKIN sharing the decks with the always amazing resident DJ's JDH & DAVE P, this is sure to be another memorable night in Greenpoint.

Triple Threat at FIXED Party

Norwegian band DATAROCK stole the show at Studio B last night, easily outperforming a rather tense version of THE PRESETS. The beat-heavy night got started with Swedish synth trio LO-FI-FNK, which I just discovered is pronounced funk not fink as some might have thought. LO-FI-FNK was fun, especially when a drunk (and seemingly obsessed fan) jumped onto the stage and danced behind the band during the song "Heartache", oblivious to the ironic lyrics being sung..."Would you just get out of my face, you're crashing the party". It was a gas.
DATAROCK took the stage shortly after, fully clad in their infamous hooded red track suits. I had no idea folks were so familiar with these guys. The crowd was so into it, dancing wildly and singing along to most of the songs. In fact, at one point three guys rushed the stage, creating quite an onstage scuffle. Synthesizers flew. Cuss words flew. Security pounced. It got crazy for a minute. But DATAROCK didn't hold a grudge and soon the party resumed, bigger than ever. When the guys took to their most popular song, "Fa-Fa-Fa", the crowd erupted into a celebratory dance party. Fun was had by all. THE PRESETS seemed unusually tense, particularly before their set, hovering over the sound mixer for a good 20 minutes. Once onstage, they lacked the energy of previous shows. In fact, I don't think I saw the drummer smile even once throughout the entire set. But still, THE PRESETS's huge electro sound won the crowd over, continuing the party into the wee hours of the night.

The unsung heroes of the night were DJ's JDH and DAVE P, lacing each set together with solid electro jams. I absolutely love that they started the night off with PRIMAL SCREAM's early classic "Come Together". Perfect.

(NOT SO) NEW VIDEO FRIDAY - FIXED/GO COMMANDO edition

The FIXED party this weekend at Studio B is gonna be insane. Not only are DATAROCK, LO-FI-FNK and THE PRESETS all performing live, but the party is also the FIXED resident DJ's JDH & DAVE P "Go Commando" CD release party. "Go Commando" is an awesome mix, featuring tracks by THE KNIFE, MR. OIZO, JOAKIM, VITALIC, ELLEN ALLIEN & APPARAT, THE RAPTURE, 120 DAYS, THE GOSSIP and much more.
