Time to Get Ill & Crazy Larry present the Poker Flat Recordings Showcase with Mr. C, Adultnapper, Martin Landsky, Blk|Market Membership’s Taimur + Fahad and Crazy Larry on Saturday, February 20th, 2010.

There is no denying that Mr. C is a legend of dance music.  Over the span of his 20+ years in the scene he has tried his hand at virtually every aspect of it.  Mr.C’s musical career began as an MC in the U.K.  As the vicious front man for the hip hop outfit The Shamen, he was responsible for a string of mainstream and club hits during the early 90’s.  After that came his successful solo career as a DJ/Producer, as well as club owner.  Along with partner Layo Paskin, their clubs The End and AKA Bar provided Londoners with memorable nights for well over a decade.   During their tenure, the venues became two of the city’s most legendary dance establishments.  His many labels include Plink Plonk, The End Recordings, and Superfreq Recordings, which also is the name of his world famous club night.  Mr. C has released countless productions under a variety of aliases for some of the world’s most prestigious techno and house labels including Sexonwax and Hallucination Ltd.

His latest collaborative effort is with New York’s own Adultnapper under the Sycophant Slags moniker.  Their newly released EP on Poker Flat, “Keep Off” is a trippy slice of underground house.  A tight, clean, and superbly produced track, “Keep Off” also marks Mr. C’s return to vocal duties.  With the catchy “sky’s the limit” refrain, the track has immediately lifted itself to late night anthem status.  The EP also features unique interpretations from renowned acts Reboot and The Wighnomy Brothers.  Mr. C has also released his first solo EP in nearly 5 years with ‘Lunar EP on Wagon RepairLunar EP showcases his diversity with three distinct variations on one common theme.  The sunrise perfect “Full Moon”, deep after hours style “Waxing, and peak time “Dark Moon” come together to form a complete representation of the sounds that make up a Mr.C set.

Mr. C is joined by several of house and techno’s most esteemed artists to showcase Poker Flat Recordings.  His Sycophant Slags partner and Brooklyn’s own master of deep, brooding techno Adultnapper will also take to the decks.  Making his long awaited return to New York City will be Martin Landsky for a special 5 hour extended set.  Martin’s ability to mix deep music with funky elements and sexy vocals make him a worldwide favorite.  His sets are known to bridge the gap between techno, funk, minimal, and house.  Blk|Market Membership’s own Taimur + Fahad are heroes of the New York underground scene. Not only known for throwing some of the city’s finest underground techno events, they are also recognized as two of its best DJ’s with a keen ear for upcoming global talent.  With extended opening duties the duo will showcase the techno sounds which so many around the country have come to love.  Rounding out the bill will be Time To Get Ill’s own Crazy Larry.  Larry has brought together this impressive roster of artists dear to his heart for what is sure to be a very special night for all.

Pacha NYC presents the official New York City stop of the Rebel Rave Tour featuring Damian Lazarus, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler, Deniz Kurtel, and opening set by Blk|Market Membership’s Taimur+Fahad on Friday, February 12, 2010.

The ultimate collection of musical oddballs and misfits known as the Rebel Rave Crew have been responsible for some of the most exciting sounds in recent dance music, both behind the decks and as cutting edge producers. Now, the Rebel Ravers will lead club goers at New York megaclub Pacha NYC on a musical odyssey, displaying their unique twist on the electronic scene.  Starting with Crosstown Rebels head and underground DJ hero Damian Lazarus, who has been on quite a roll recently.  His recent debut artist album Smoke The Monster Out was met with critical acclaim and is set to release its third single “Diamond in the Dark”.

As the mastermind of the tour he states, “The Rebel Rave tour is a great opportunity for all the Rebel family to gather together for awesome parties at some of the best clubs in the world. We bring a special sense of fun to the dancefloor, our combined sound is second to none and our followers across America know to expect the unexpected. Get ready to Rave“  Playing alongside Damian will be a slew of today’s most forward thinking underground artists.  Jamie Jones has quickly risen through the ranks and become a figure that simply cannot be ignored.  His anthem ‘Summertime” became one of the biggest tracks of the year and was recently named DJ Mag’s “Best Single of 2009”.  Jamie also received the magazines honor as the year’s “Best Producer”.  Having recently been named #8 in Resident Advisor’s Best DJs of 2009 Poll, Seth Troxler has rapidly gained notoriety throughout the scene.  From Detroit to Berlin and everywhere in between, Seth has made a name for himself playing some of the most unique sets in the business, while noticeably enjoying every minute he steps behind the decks. His next move for world domination is an unsurprisingly excellent compilation for BPitch’s Boogybytes Vol. 5. Turkish born Deniz Kurtel is set to unveil her debut live performance alongside a self-made LED lighting system.  Already being hailed as the next great hope for electronic music, her debut single ‘Yeah’ has been called an all time classic.  Rounding out the bill will be NYC favorites Taimur + Fahad.  Their infamous Blk|Market Membership events have brought some of techno’s finest talents to various secret venues throughout the city.  As DJ’s they present a sound perfect for starting this music journey on the right note.  New York mega club Pacha NYC has seen its share of talent in its 4+ years, but The Rebel Rave crew is sure to provide the venue with a night unlike any other.
