Unplugged.
Closed my Facebook account today. The procedure was far more complicated than it should be, prompting me to re-assign administrator rights to another person (for Facebook developer settings), and jumping through hoops in the hopes that I’d just leave it be. Admittedly, it’s only a deactivation of the account – which means I can log back in at anytime and the my details are all there just as I left them – but right now I need to block out this evil network.
Carl Craig. Francesco Tristano. Moritz Von Oswald.
Blkmarket present the legendary combination of Carl Craig, Francesco Tristano and Moritz Von Oswald – live for the first time in New York on Saturday February 4th, 2012. Deep in a Brooklyn warehouse, the trio took the stage at 3am and played a set of spaced out piano & synth riffs, mind-bending frequencies, jackin’ house grooves and ball-busting techno beats. Photos below.

Francois K
Happy birthday to Francois K, born 10 January 1954. FK has an impressive body of work surrounding him, working with a diverse range of artists including D-Train, Joni Mitchell, U2, Jean Michel Jarre, Nina Simone, Goldfrapp, LCD Soundsystem, and the legendary Kraftwerk. His weekly NYC residency Deep Space travels across multiple musical universes, and often features electronic music luminaries.
One of my favorite FK pieces of work is his remix of “Forever More” by Moloko. A collaboration with Eric Kupper, the remix is a stripped back, modern classic that slowly builds around Roisin Murphy’s vocal performance.
