Known for his influential early 90's releases as DBX, as well as for his early collaborations with Richie Hawtin as Cybersonik on Plus 8 records, Daniel Bell's status as a "pioneer of minimal" is well documented, his productions characterized by house grooves accented by blips and bleeps. His tracks early on featured bizarre voice effects and eerie atmospherics (Losing Control1994), and these same staple elements would become cornerstone aspects of modern techno, his influence on modern electronic music producers easily apparent. Following a summer that has seen him reconstruct his DBX live set at clubs throughout Europe and at the DEMF, we hope you can join us as we welcome the man back for another signature Dan Bell DJ set! JOHN PATTERSON + AUDIOPHILE (Koncept + Meiotic) Now, we've REALLY been looking forward to making this one happen for awhile; JOHN PATTERSON + AUDIOPHILE play their first tag team set together in what we know will be a special aural treat. Representing the Koncept crew, JOHN PATTERSON has been firing up Chicago audiences for more than 10 years with his flawless three turntable techno sets. Not one to sit idly by and follow musical trends, his sound has moved and grown in all directions, divergent from the modern techno template. John plays tonight with Vladimir aka AUDIOPHILE, one of the key components to the Meioticsoundsystemdjz. Vlad's Detroit + European influences are firmly rooted in Chicago jack, and has provoked dancefloors alongside the varied likes of DERRICK MAY, ELLEN ALLIEN, GREEN VELVET, METRO AREA, DJ SLUGO, DEREK PLASLAIKO. and ELIOT LIPP, just to name a few. Both gents bring technical prowess and bags of trickery to the stage, so you know this ain't gonna simply be two dudes beatmatching records. See what trickery ensues when these 2 vets come together on the 1's + 2's! == == FUTURE: EMPTY BOTTLE, MEIOTIC & APSERPS PRESENT JACKSON THIRD FRIDAYS @ SONOTHEQUE IN 2009! FULL DETAILS SOON!
