T.Raumschmiere fired up the club back in December of 2003 with an incendiary
live performance that had the Metropolitan [RIP] rocking out like CBGB's.
Now, he makes a return for a block-rocking party to DJ for us on the eve of
St.Patrick's Day - always pushing the harder punk-edged DIY sounds of techno
& electro this is sure to have the club heaving like an elephant in
labour.T.Raumschmiere is the owner of cult Berlin label Shitkatapult, which
celebrated it's 50th release this year. With his full- on 'stay-anti' motto
confirming his punk based refusenik stance he is a one man 'electro-punk'
movement. His DJ sets are renowned throughout Europe and especially in
Berlin at the famous WMF parties - after his live performance last time, we
thought it only right to get him back to spin the records right round.
Since 1997 T. Raumschmiere (the moniker is lifted from the William
S.Burroughs short story, 'The Dreamcops', 'Die Traumschmiere' in his native
German) has released music on a variety of labels, though predominantly on
his own - the wonderfully named Shitkatapult, based in Berlin, but also for
Cologne's Kompakt, and Hefty Records (Chicago). Though this period he has
worked with people such as Le Tigre, Dave Gahan, Goldfrapp and Miss Kittin
all the while playing drums in his band Mos Eisley Def.
Variously described as "digi-punk rock", "crack-house music for cable TV
kids.", and full of "rock hard metal riffage" his music is a diverse
combination of punk, electro, hip-hop, rock and electronic atmospherics.
Releases have appeared on labels such as Kompakt, Sender, BPitch Control,
WMF, Salo and Mute. His most recent album 'Radio Blackout' on Novamute
featured the massive tracks 'Monstertruckdriver' and 'Rabaukendisco' have
been picked up and heavily played by Sven Vath, DJ Hell, The Hacker and
Ellen Allien. This appearance will be an unforgettable experience with a
bucket full of rock-star magnetism ready to rock the dancefloor.
Support on the night comes from one of Ireland's leading techno producers,
Americhord. A regular at Electric City she has previously played alongside
the likes of Stewart Walker, Vitalic & Ellen Allien. Following a year with
two killer releases out - the 'Enter' EP on D1 and the Midnight 12" on
Diaspora. - we are looking forward to hearing her play showcase these and
other new tracks [blow your whistle!] - be sure to get down to check out
what could very well be, once again, a show-stealing performance from
Americhord.
Kicking things off will be one half of the Electricity Brothers, Simon
Conway with a selection of chemically enhanced electro and techno to warm up
the club. While upstairs in the Bar the glamour boys from Nylon will be
calling the shots with their unique brand of electro punk funk.
