Once again, DJ Becka and techno label Gotham Grooves of NYC are back to bring you ‘Gotham City Radio’ on Livesets.com.
Airing every Saturday, from 12:00pm – 3:00pm EST(eastern standard time) 18:00 – 21:00 CET(central europan time). Alongside Becka's weekly tune selections, we will be featuring international and local guest dj's and performances for your enjoyment. We hope to help kick start your day or evening, depending on where you’re tuning in from. Just go to www.livesets.com and follow the links at the top right.
Gracing the decks once again on the show with Becka will be Agent Orange in a much anticipated return since his performance at the Ultra Music Festival during the Winter Music Conference in Miami.
Agent Orange (aka Ara Krikorian) front man of Gotham Grooves records and NY techno Don, announces some upcoming performances and releases for 2006. He continues to shape the future of electronic music.
Demand for his performances and releases have grown at a feverish pace. Gigs are already lined up in France, Spain, and across the USA. Also this year, he was personally invited by Christian Smith of the respected Tronic label, to perform one of his "Live Remix Sets" on America's biggest electronic music stage, The 2006 Ultra Music Festival in Miami USA during the WMC. Here he performed with fellow technicians Richie Hawtin, Mauro Picotto, DJ Hell, Adam Beyer, Chris Liebing, Christian Smith, Marco Carola, and Misstress Barbara.
On the release front his remix skills have been summoned by Ade Fenton's long running imprint Advanced from the UK, for a harder tribalised remix of "Morrigan" by Ireland's Celtec Twinz. It will be out this month.
Agent’s Tech-house and Minimal Techno skills also shine once again on a collaboration remix project with fellow NY dj/producer Becka. Their remix of "Lifestyle" by Magnifica featuring Sumisa, is a minimalised re-interpretation on a track that is currently being played in the rotation of DJ's Eric Morillo and Sander Kleinenberg.
A few EP’s are also expected to follow, continuing the quality on his own label Gotham Grooves.
High demand in Europe has led Agent Orange to the decision to move to Spain in the summer of 2006, along with partner Becka. There they will introduce their unique new concept of electronic music performance.

Recently ranked as one of the Top 100 Female DJ's in the world in the Shejay Top 100 Female DJ's poll, Becka has been exposing her hard hitting techno style to the masses for more than a decade. She has played at events across the US, Europe and South America, alongside artists lke Electric Indigo, Adam X, Agent Orange, Steve Stoll, and WJ Henze, just to name a few. Her unique blend of Hard Techno and Electro have left those witnessing her sets, comparing her sound to the likes of German techno dj/producer Chris Liebing.
Some of the places where Becka has played are: Fuse (Brussels, Belgium), Metropolis (Paris, France), Montuno Vibes (Ghent, Belgium), DEMF (Gotham Grooves, ISOS, Nefarious) (Detroit), Female Pressure (Memphis, Tennassee), Tronic Treatment (NYC), Limelight (NYC), the I Love Techno 1st Anniversary party in Caracas, Venezuela, and most recently, a mini tour in Europe, including dates in Switzerland and Spain.
Her determination and ambition have led her to the creation of Gotham City Radio. A partnership with American techno label, Gotham Grooves, and Dutch based website Livesets.com.
She has also begun working in the studio, co-producing tracks with Agent Orange, as well as working on solo projects. Her first release, is featured on Gotham Grooves 009-Orange Slices EP. Produced alongside Agent Orange, ‘Lemongrass’ is already receiving support from some major players in the industry, including Carl Cox. Their 2nd release together, a remix of the Magnifica track ‘Lifestyle’ is a slowed down sound of a track that has been in the rotation of DJ's Eric Morillo and Sander Kleinenberg. Motivated by her love of the studio and production, Becka will be launching her own label, GCR, in 2006, which will feature releases by various international artists along with her own productions.
As a result of the growing demand in Europe, Becka will be relocating to Spain with partner Agent Orange in the summer of 2006. It is there, that they will introduce their live performance – a collaboration of their styles in a unique new concept of electronic music performance. For info check www.djbecka.com
