Pacha NYC Podcast Series 044: LIVIO & ROBY – download now!

Pacha NYC presents the New York stop of the renowned label’s Desolat Bus Tour featuring label heads Loco Dice and Martin Buttrich along with Romanian representatives Livio & Roby on Saturday, March 20th, 2010.

Every so often a DJ or producer comes along who inspires the collective imagination of the clubbing world. Loco Dice is someone who can piece together these intangible moods with a uniquely direct approach. Whether it is his DJ sets or productions on labels like M_nus, Cadenza, Ovum, Cocoon or his own Desolat, he manages to merge perspectives in a delicate sense of sound and atmosphere, underpinned with a solid, physical groove. His DJ sets are known to be spontaneous orchestrations fueled by the nuances of a crowd, location, or venue.  It is this innate understanding of people: what they sense, what they feel, what they want to imagine that distinguishes him from other DJs.

Martin Buttrich has been involved with such a large number of productions since his start, it would give even the most eager clubber a difficult time finding them all. Since the beginning, Buttrich has kept his head down and worked as a studio producer for over a decade, producing records with the likes of Timo Maas and Loco Dice.  His work with Loco Dice has appeared on labels like Ovum, M_nus and Cocoon.  His dark, twisted sound produces a fiercely isolated groove and has come to embody the dominant sound of dance floors which has made Martin Buttrich and Loco Dice productions the in demand sound across the world.  It is with this success that Desolat Music was born.  Buttrich has still found time to produce work under his own name, releasing records on Planet E, and Four:Twenty.  Buttrich is not only a studio wizard though. He can be seen playing his live set at all premier clubs around the world.

Livio & Roby are two of Romania’s most elite producers and DJs.  With a great understanding of dance music and exceptional production skills the duo have produced and remixed tracks appearing on labels like Cecille, Fumakilla, Junior Boy´s Own and Viva.  Their distinct sound ranges from the realms of deep house to classic techno. Holding residencies at several premier clubs in their homeland including Studio Martin and Kristal, as well as being major players at venues throughout the continent, Livio & Roby are poised to become the next great stars of dance music.  This was greatly influenced by Loco Dice when the famed DJ asked the duo to join the Desolat family in 2008, thus giving them a highly visible platform to grow and develop their sound for audiences around the globe.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

FERRY CORSTEN UNVEILS NEW ALBUM & CONCEPT TOUR
‘ONCE UPON A NIGHT’
(Ultra Music, March 30th)

Dutch dance music pioneer Ferry Corsten unveils Once Upon A Night, his latest compilation and concept tour. It is built as a double disc set featuring 25 unreleased tracks, all of which have been produced by Ferry himself or his frequent collaborators exclusively for the compilation.  The album out March 30th on Ultra Music is an amalgam of the best in house and trance. Drawing influence from Corsten’s travels to the world’s most exotic destinations, listeners are transported on a journey through unchartered territories of sound.

On the new album Ferry says, “I am happy to be back with a compilation after quite some years.  Because of the traveling and touring I get to see a lot of cultures.  These impressions have had a great influence on compiling this double album.  I personally think the mix is great fusion of house and trance combined in a two and half hour musical journey.”  The album’s exclusive tracklisting is designed to bring the warmth of a tropical beach to even the coldest of winter nights.  With Ferry Corsten leading the way, Once Upon A Night marks the beginning of a new era in mixed compilations.  Let him lead you into the night…

To support the compilation, Ferry Corsten also unleashes the brand new tour concept: Once Upon A Night: The Experience.   Designed as a 6 hour interactive journey in 3 parts (sunset, night and sunrise), the show highlights the magic of the compilation visualized by a never before seen living backdrop.  Ferry will be accompanied by two major league DJ’s, who along with Ferry will lead the audience into the night. The interactive combination of sound and visuals will take the audience on a complete sensory experience with state-of-the-art production techniques – emulating sunset to sunrise; from dusk ‘til dawn; pre-party through after-party. Once Upon A Night: The Experience will be an amazing indulgence of the senses never before seen in a DJ performance.

Since 2007, Ferry Corsten has hosted the weekly radio show ‘Corsten’s Countdown’  on 22 worldwide radio stations and weekly on Sirius XM Radio Wednesdays at 9pm ET. The program is designed as a weekly chart show which puts the listener in control of the  playlist.  As Ferry plays the latest tracks from established and up-and-coming producers, listeners are able to vote for their favorites. During the month’s final show, Ferry presents the top 10 tracks based on previous weeks voting results.  Beginning in March 2010, the popular radio show will be available as a free weekly podcast. Every Thursday a brand new episode will be available for download via iTunes and www.ferrycorsten.com.

Ferry Corsten has been nominated at this year’s International Dance Music Awards in the Best European DJ category and “Corsten’s Countdown” is nominated in the Best Radio Mix Show category.  As one of the most anticipated annual events on the global dance music calendar the IDMA’s generate votes worldwide from music enthusiasts around the globe.  With 57 award categories, the event honors exceptional achievements throughout the spectrum of dance music.

It’s easy to get excessive when talking about DJs, but with dance music veteran and trance hero Ferry Corsten, the facts speak for themselves.  The accolades and awards he has received for his productions, remixes, and DJ skills have resulted in Ferry being voted as one of the Top 10 DJs in the world by DJ Magazine for almost a decade. Since his immersion on the scene in the late ’90s, the Dutch musician has amassed best-selling albums and nearly a dozen gold singles.  He also maintains a worldwide tour schedule which, on any given weekend, brings him to all corners of the globe.  His albums, remixes, and singles reach iconic status almost immediately upon release as such iconic tracks as “Made of Love”, “Punk”, “Gouryella”, and “Out of the Blue” can prove. His anthemic 2001 System F album, Out of the Blue was recently re-released and digitally re-mastered featuring the complete track list and some hard to find remixes, along with Out of the Blue 2010, which features the legendary trance anthem remixed by some of today’s top artists including Tiesto, Laidback Luke, and Giuseppe Ottaviani, amongst a slew of others. Now with ‘One Upon A Night’ hitting our shores, Ferry shows no signs of slowing down in 2010.

Listen to Corsten’s Countdown – HERE. A preview of Once Upon A Night can be heard in a very special episode on March 17th.

JAMIE JONES
SETH TROXLER
DENIZ KURTEL (Live)
TAIMUR + FAHAD

Basement DJs: Leks, Cem & Rg, Bennett

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.
