Though he doesn’t play Bmore jamz, he does us all one better. Consistently, Bart B More delivers amazing tracks and remixes and pretty much has set the bar for 2011. I have heard that he is a wizard on the cdjs. The first time I saw his name I laughed cause it reminded of all those goofy DJ names that friends come up with when they are making fun of Djing. “Dj snugglesalot” or “Dj swizzledonk” ect. I stopped laughing when I heard the first track from this dude. He does a genuinely great job of riding the dutch house res/blip wobble line while still keeping it electrofunhouse. Those are my made up genres to describe his production sound. It’s heavy enough to fit into a serious techno set but takes the edge off nicely. For Example

When you hear the word “Brazilian,” the first image that comes to mind might not be a pair of disco djs/producers from Rio — especially given the duo’s apparent aversion to shaving. But despite this unfortunate fact, Brazilian performers The Twelves have emerged as one of the world’s premier electronic acts, being labeled “Rio de Janeiro’s answer to Daft Punk.”

Having remixed such artists as M.I.A., Groove Armada, La Roux, Radiohead, Fever Ray, Two Door Cinema, Metric and Daft Punk themselves, The Twelves (in their own words) “like to take tracks that don’t normally work on a club vibe and try and beef them up to a point that people can actually dance to them” (BBC Radio 1). The result has given them numerous Hype Machine #1 hits and a slot on Pete Tong’s famed “BBC Radio 1′s Essential Mix.”

February 5th, The Twelves bring their electro-disco act to San Francisco’s Mezzanine, courtesy of friends of The Projects, Blasthaus. Advance tickets are available here for $16 and the show is expected to sell out.

(Live mix and more info after the jump…)

Supporting The Twelves will be two members of The Projects, DJ Nisus and DJ White Mike. We are very excited to be apart of this promotion and certain that this will be one for the books.

Below, we’ve included a live mix from a September 2010 performance by The Twelves. Download here.

Enjoy.

It was somewhere in the middle of my adolescence that I began to question why one of our most oft-played Christmas songs involved a child bearing witness to his mother’s adultery. Especially baffling given my upbringing, was the child’s naive conclusion that his father would react with good humor after seeing his mommy “tickling” Santa Claus.

“Oh what a laugh it would have been
if Daddy had only seen”

Had this episode played out in my boyhood home, the room would likely erupt not with laughter but rather wild screaming and gun violence. How this would be different than other Christmases, I can’t really say.

So, in the spirit of non-traditional Christmas music, I present a small collection of holiday tunes that will likely never make the neighborhood carolers’ list and the best Christmas mix I’ve ever heard.

Merry Christmas from The Projects!

So, DJ Nisus asked me to put together a demo of “non-mainstream” tracks that he could pass along to some friends of his and the below mix was born. The mix was put together in two days recorded live off of Serato, and contains some of my favorite current house/techno tracks.

theProject’s own prolific producer NISUS has been hard at work cranking out remixes for your lovely ears to hear. Below is his remix of Caribou’s “Odessa”, off their new album Swim. The original Caribou track is pretty amazers to begin with (the whole album is really), and with the addition of some 808 style drums and a few BPM fluctuations here and there, Nisus’ edit is totally sick. I dig it.

Also be sure to check out his most recent remix of MIA’s “Steppin Up”. It’s for the HARD LA/N.E.E.T. remix competition so be sure to click those hearts!

Can I say that? The guy is awesome, like weird Tiga shit awesome. And his new track “Bang Bang Bang”…is amazing. I so dig it. Soo soo soo good. Especially if you watch the Creators Project interview where Mark explains the process of making his new record. There are so many classic Mark Ronson tid bits and lines. Ive watched it like 6 times. Really. You can check it out here.

The real reason I think he is a genius, is because his first single “Bang Bang Bang” off the new record is catchy as hell and the video is ohh soo smooth. Classic analog, boombox, vhs, meets Tron in a 1974 Japanese TV Studio. Yeah, it’s like that.

Here’s the best part. I felt like I knew the lyrics, like from when I was a kid. So I did what every self respecting intellect would do: I Googled it. Low and behold, the lyrics stem from a French Canadian kid’s song, which makes perfect sense, seeing as i have a French speaking mother. So check out this amazing little piece of animation:

The new album SBTRKT comes out July 12th, and I can hardly wait.

As far as corporate sponsorship goes, Scion is kinda killing it. I’ve gathered quite a little collection of Scion themed SWAG over the past few years from various parties. I’ve got two adorable pairs of pink Scion panties that read “What Moves You” on the ass (hey, its better than “juicy”), i’ve got sampler CDs galore, earplugs for my earholes,  and several tubes of SPF 15 which have been INSRTUMENTAL in my not getting cancer. That’s just to name a few.

This Thursday Scion brings us a massive multi-leveled, multi-faceted, multi-talented launch party for their über-tech new site www.scionify.us. The lineup is RETARDED. Promoters are always saying the lineup is retarded, but really…this one is. The lineup includes the best local DJ’s representing the best styles of music! We’re doing it Euro style. Tired of Electro? Check out some Hip Hop. Want some dubstep, well by all means do so! All in the same damn venue!

There will be three rooms of incredible music. The main room will feature ‘Electro/Future Funk’ with the Solid Gold Jacuzzi DJ’s. These are the guys that brought you the 50ft scissor lift DJ booth at LovEvolution last year. DJ’s Shane King, Swayzee, Nisus, Eric Sharp and Sleazemore have been throwing gold themed parties for a two years now, and these dudes will destroy you. Yeah, it’s like that. As if that wasn’t crazy enough, DJ Craze will be headlining the room, so bring your A-Game.

Gaslamp Killer will be crushing the Catacombs along with locals Maneesh The Twister and Dials of Change the Beat. Lastly we’ve got some sweet, sweet Disco and Soul in the Destiny Lounge with White Girl Lust of Solid Bump along with Honey Soundsystem and Hakobo.
