SLAANG @ Secret Warehouse Location, 03/03/07 - Arnaud Rebotini, The Futureheads & Mystery Jets

[Geordiee99]

SLAANG

Saturday 03/03/07

@ SECRET WAREHOUSE LOCATION

(Shoreditch, London EC2A)

 

SLAANG will be hijacking derelict spaces for four exclusive one-off warehouse parties throughout 2007, wheeling in their colossal SLAANG Sound Systems and sparking a freakish collision between the heroes of rave and rock, the avant-garde leaders of indie and electro and an edgy, vivacious crowd ready to induce mass warehouse cavorting behind closed doors.

 

The first of the four one-off parties sees Black Strobe’s Arnauld Rebotini, The Futureheads, Tiga favourite Sweetlight (Turbo), Mystery Jets, ISSST’s Bobby M, Friendly Fires and more coming together in a Shoreditch (EC2A) warehouse for a legendary DJ assault that will encompass bass heavy, skewed electro-techno, razor-sharp punk funk, biker house and warped art-rock.

 

Taking centre stage is Arnaud Rebotini, one half (with Ivan Smagghe) of the deviant duo that is Black Strobe. Coming from the punk disco epicentre of the bleepin’ universe, they are masters of the dark side of electro, biker-house and raw techno rock. The darker dancefloor champions of big grooves with a dark and sinister heart. They\'ve remixed Depeche Mode, The Rapture, Tiefschwarz, Dave Clarke, Playgroup and (kings of EBM) Nitzer Ebb, which should give you an idea where they\'re coming from. \"Electronic music that is not afraid to scare people,\" as they like to call it.

 

The Futureheads superb ‘Skip To The End’ (best track of ’06 in our book!), remixed by Digitalism, has torn countless dancefloors to shreds. Sunderland’s world beaters take time out from touring the globe with the likes of Franz Ferdinand and co to leads the pop-punk warehouse charge… danceable and energetic, stuttering and witty, the great reclaimers of pogoing vogue, we welcome the mighty Futureheads!

 

Next up are Erol Alkan’s latest studio partners, Mystery Jets. The Trash legend together with the Jets are hotly tipped for their unique brand of scrapyard punk and demented pop, a sound which has seen them share the same stages as the Arctic Monkeys, Bloc Party, Depeche Mode and Goldfrapp. These Eel Pie Islanders come from a place that gave birth to the musical careers of The Rolling Stones and Pink Floyd amongst others and what makes them stand out head and shoulders above the rest is their sheer willing to embrace the musical oddity and nutty noises, with the help of Mr Alkan, like no other.

 

Continuing the cosmopolitan strand we give you Tiga’s favourite Frenchman, Sweetlight. Sweetlight first came under the international spotlight with his now legendary collaboration with Dan Ghenacia ‘Abusator’. An insane rave-bomb with acid flashbacks. The 2ManyDJs edit followed and it quickly became a Sweetlight anthem. Fast forward to Sweetlight’s most recent release, an amazing cover version of French legend Etienne Daho… such an amazing piece of music that Tiga ended all of his sets with it, for a year!… so good, that Tiga himself went to pain-staking lengths to re-launch his Turbo imprint and endure worldwide legal battles just so he could release this gem. Sweetlight’s recordings credentials are heavy to say the least, he’s recorded/remixed for Freak N Chic, K7, Output, Skint, Turbo and the rest, but production aside the man is a sh*t hot DJ. One of the best we’ve ever seen, no joke. His influences range across the board (from pop to indie to electronic to rave), he has the most amazing record collection, and even more amazing mixing skills… we can only describe him as similar to a one man 2ManyDJs. Truly genius.

 

That brings us onto Friendly Fires. In the midst of their UK tour, the buzz on Friendly Fires is huge if the industry scrum over them is anything to go by. If it\'s “One’s to watch” that’s being talked about, then theirs is the name that\'s always dropped from those in the know. Formed out of the ashes of a St Albans hardcore band, Friendly Fires now make a devastating mix of razor-sharp, wired and wirey punk-funk. Stripped-back twists, lush massive, tingly chords, a modern twist on the My Bloody Valentine sound… Friendly Fires are the real deal.

 

And finally, following on from the very special ISSST NYE shindig, no London warehouse party would be complete without Bobby M. Resident and Promoter of ISSST and SLAANG, Bobby M will be on hand to serve up his own futuristic fusion of acid house, rich angular electro/techno, rave and nervy disco.

 

 

SLAANG will rise across the capital for four exclusive one-off parties throughout 2007... four of the most lavishly raw secret parties ever experienced, before dissipating below ground once again.

 

Full location details of the four limited one-off SLAANG shindigs will be announced 1wk before the event at www.myspace.com/slaang

Arnaud Rebotini – Meshuggah [Kling Klong]

The Hacker is a self proclaimed 'big fan of Arnaud'... Slam reckons he's simply 'Great' and this track is a main stay for many a quality jock out there from DJ FEX, Prins Thomas, Gusgus and Ruede Hagelstein, to Mijk Van Dijk, Mazi and Mistress Barbara.

 

Friendly Fires – Your Love [People In The Sky]

In the midst of their UK tour, the hype on Friendly Fires is huge. And, for a change, it’s easy to see why. With their cover of Jamie Principle's Chicago house classic 'Your Love' they turn it into a feral yet shimmering stomp. Why can't all music be this good?
