Saturday, June 7th, 2008 [ K O N T R O L ] 3 YEAR ANNIVERSARY minimal techno + avant house every 1st Saturday at The Endup featuring from London via Berlin: RADIO SLAVE Rekids . Poker Flat . Get Physical Matt Edwards is easily one of the most unique and important artists in dance music today. Sure, he runs a label (Rekids), has loads of aliases (Matthew E, Quiet Village, Sea Devils, Rekid, Radio Slave) and produces hits of his own, but what truly sets him apart is his ablity to reimagine the music of others. The jaw-dropping list of artists he's remixed includes Carl Craig, Kylie Minogue, New Order, Justice, Trentemoller, UNKLE, Sasha, Tiga, Bob Sinclar, Slam, The Pet Shop Boys, Clipse, Moby, Paul McCartney, and countless others. This man has amazing records no one else has and an inimitable style all his own. Listen and learn! and from Stockholm via Berlin: PAR GRINDVIK ** live PA ** Drumcode . Spectral Sound . Stockholm LTD Pär Grindvik has been an integral member of the Swedish electronic scene since the 90's as record store owner, label manager, producer and performer. His rigorous touring schedule and well-received releases on Drumcode, Spectral Sound, and his own Stockholm LTD have made him a respected player on the international scene and prompted his relocation, like so many before him, to the Mecca of Minimal, Berlin, Germany. Hot on the heels of performances at Miami's WMC and a main stage set at Detroit's Movement Festival (DEMF), don't miss his driving yet intelligent live set in one of only four US appearances! plus special guest: MONTY LUKE ( mothership . demon days . xlr8r ) with resident DJs: SAMMY D ( classic . dirtybird . utensil ) ALLAND BYALLO ( nightlight . auralism . leibe*detail ) CRAIG KUNA ( platform . esdjco ) NIKOLA BAYTALA ( robsoul . junior boys own . s.w.a.t. ) __________________________________________________ __ The ENDUP 401 6th St @ Harrison, SF 10pm - 8am / 21+ / $20 http://www.theendup.com Still FREE until 11pm! __________________________________________________ __ Full bios, pics and lots FREE music: http://www.kontrolsf.com [KONTROL] on MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/kontrolsf Flyer front:  Flyer back:  Poster:  __________________________________________________ __ RADIO SLAVE (aka Rekid, Quiet Village, Matthew E) No matter what sounds you profess to be your music of choice, chances are, that at some point over the last five years, you will have got your rocks off to Matt Edwards. As Matthew E he fashions club-based, dancefloor slayers. Under that aegis he’s updated the classic Chi-town, jackin’ sound beloved of house aficionados and layered it with fractured funk, belligerent, oddball beats and mechanical soul. If Matthew E is all about the Saturday Night Fever, then, by contrast, Rekid is the slower, more deliberate, rhythmical funk of the mid-week mayhem. Its well-intentioned muscular intensity making it perfect soulful sustenance. Quiet Village is something else all together. A collaboration with long-time musical sparring partner Joel Martin (a vinyl freak, like Mr Edwards, who works in esteemed auction house Christie’s pop department), it’s sample-based music which veers from drawn out disco-not-disco delirium to evocative, under-stated soundscapes. Sea Devils - you keeping up at the back? – is undeniable electronic pop brilliance. Working with Tom from Cagedbaby, it’s the least niche of Matt’s projects and thanks to Sea Devils alluring pop dance grooves they’ll no doubt be shagging the upper reaches of the hit parade sometime soon. Last, but by no means least etc, etc, etc, is Radio Slave. Perhaps Matt’s most instantly recognisable nom de guerre, thanks in part to his inspirational melding of Kylie’s Can’t Get You Out Of My Head to New Order’s Blue Monday, this is Matt’s DJ moniker and the guise under which he completes his incendiary remixes and re-edits. However, before such sonic schizophrenia gets you calling for the men in white coats, just feel the quality and consider Matt’s legacy. Fired by the first wave of acid house, Matt gained his musical spurs by partying to dance music that was just that: music you danced to, irrespective of tribal factions. This was the raison d’être he acknowledged when he took to the decks, first at London’s legendary Milk Bar in 1992, then onto the, then, recently opened Ministry Of Sound and then to parties across the country, most notably in Wales – where he was a regular at free parties – and in Brighton, his home since 1998. His love of re-edits, dance music’s oft-forgotten backbone, led Matt into the studio himself. His own re-edits and remixes, such as the aforementioned epoch-defining re-imagining for Ms Minogue, soon gave way to his own productions and since the floodgates opened there’s been no stopping the man known as, erm, Matthew E, Quiet Village, Sea Devils, Rekid and Radio Slave. He’s released records for Skint, Soul Jazz, Classic, Whatever We Want, and he’s worked with fellow travellers, Belgium’s The Glimmers. If Matt comes up with another two projects he’ll have enough alter egos for every day of the week. Psychologists would probably have a field day with him; mercifully, we don’t have to worry about any crisis of identity, we just get to keep on dancing. ==> LINKS: Radio Slave's website: http://www.rekids.com/ Radio Slave's discography: <--- (CHECK THIS OUT!) http://www.discogs.com/artist/Radio%20Slave Radio Slave on MySpace: http://www.myspace.com/rekid ==> MUSIC: Radio Slave - Essential Mix on BBC Radio One Radio Slave on Beatport: https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/...73/radio_slave ==> VIDEO: Radio Slave - Live @ Fabric, London - 03.03.07 Radio Slave - Live @ Foundation, Minneapolis - 10.18.07 __________________________________________________ __ PAR GRINDVIK Enjoying life inspired by memories and music from the past, combining them with the progressing sound of techno. Pär Grindvik is an artist that always aims to compose music that keeps the aesthetics and underground culture alive. Pär Grindvik or his pseudonym The Hollow has been a core person of the Swedish electronic scene since the nineties as record store-owner (Illegal Stockholm), label manager and producer. He is a well established artist and after many years of touring and releases on big name labels like Drumcode, Spectral Sound and his own label Stockholm LTD, which he created and founded in 2002, he is now based in Berlin, Germany. Stockholm LTD began as an outlet for singles and EPs from Swedish electronic artists with a focus on releasing timeless electronic music. Nowadays it's much more, as each release tells its own story. Every inch of Pär’s work, including the label, artwork, release info and music, is wrapped with heart and emotion, which keeps the sparkle and curiosity alive within the ever changing adaptations of the artistic world.
