As you can see, we’ve ordered some Chinese food yesterday. Now, we don’t want to talk about our laziness at this point. Because a) we think after such an exhaustive weekend (setting up & Ed Banger on friday, tidying up & Noisia on saturday) it’s just ok to let the pots and pans rest for once and b) there’s something so much more important to talk about with you: The Mystery of the Krupuk Paper Bag

Together with the fried noodles (which were really good, by the way) we got a complimentary bag of Krupuk chips. Nice, was our first thought. Wait a mo!, we thought just an instant later. Printed on the paper bag was an unreasonably huge croissant with a man sitting on it, eating an almost normally sized thing (which we couldn’t definitely identify as a croissant but we think it is one as well). And there was a bird, too.

The question still unanswered at this moment is: What is this print-out doing on a paper bag coming from a Chinese restaurant? I mean, even if there had been croissants inside the bag – what’s the link between a French bakery product and a Chinese paper bag? We don’t know yet, but we promise, we’ll find the answers. And we know that the way to them may lead us to some even darker secrets than wrongly packed Krupuk chips.

Random Story from our VJ’s Funkey Monkey and Schneegestöber (introduction coming soon)…. Here’s my part:

As a start three Dubstep tracks for those quiet and thoughtful moments:

Bonobo – Eyesdown (Floating Points Remix) Some nice stuff coming from this guy who just released his new album “Black Sands” on Warp Records. The Remix improves the original without taking anything away. Just how I like it. Perfect! Don’t miss the video for the original mix at the bottom.

Eskmo – Harmony A real gem. Can’t remember how and when I discovered it. Really like the weird but relaxing vibe. Big new stuff coming from Eskmo on Ninja Tune in collab with Amon Tobin and with a Remix of Spor‘s DNB-Banger “Knock You Down”. Check out the A-Side for a bit more action.

Scuba – Before An especially good track from Scuba’s new Album “Triangulation” on his own label Hotflush Recordings. Very deep and a bit melancholic. Nice warm Vinyl-crackling…

Three Electro-Bangers for the Nu-Rave kids:

Hey Today! – Talk To Me New release by zee Germans Hey Today! on Tiga’s Turbo Recordings. Cut up Boys Noize like sample craziness – nothing new but pretty fun! Massive support by all the big guys…

Boys Noize – Sweet Light (Boris Dlugosch Remix) Most dancefloor-orientated track on Boys Noize Records’ new “Miami Noize 2010″ Compilation. Good feedback by the crowd. Since “Bangkok” everybody should know Boris Dlugosch – made some silly stuff on Peppermint Jam in the Nineties but kinda evolved.

Noisia – Alpha Centauri Seen Noisia @ Rösti last weekend – probably the best DJ’s on three CD decks i’ve ever seen (and it was only one of the guys!). Everybody should see them once just to understand how Drum and Bass reinvented itself in the past years without big attention by the “masses” (…at least outside Great Britain, Russia and eastern Europe). These guys really push the limits by combining Electro, Dubstep, Breaks & Ambient with fat DnB. This one’s a 125 bpm bassline-driven monster with impressive intro and into-your-face drop. Take that, Banger whores! Check out their new Album “Split the Atom” on VISION (it’s “NOISIA” upside down)!

Last weekend we played with Mr. Flash (Ed Banger)  and he dropped an absolutely disgusting but awesome nineties techno track.  Can’t wait for a revival! Big in 2k11.

Here the “X-Tended Alert” mix by 666, released in 1997 on House Nation…:

666 – Alarma! (X-Tended Alert Mix)

Enjoy or die!

Here the Video I was talking about:

Now this one:

See any connection? … … … No, there isn’t any but Pascal had the thoughtful idea to compare the two.

It’s really nice to live in our time.
