All you Collectors and independent music lovers ... DDay One and Glen Porter are teaming up on a very limited 180gram picture disc 10" called "Wavelengths" with four (2x2) dope tunes! Hard hitting drums and breaks mixed with beautiful melodic layers as we know it from DDay + a dark tune and one 60ties psychedelic inspired track by Glen Porter - you will recognize and hum with it immediately ...

This release is also available on hhv. enjoy and watch this video of DDay performing "Between Poles" live on a mixer and sampler ...

The "Wavelengths" 10" is a sample-based interpretation of the four brainwave patterns (Beta, Alpha, Theta, and Delta) that our minds shift through daily.

if you didn't read it in my blogpost earlier this year... Kanzulu aka KanKick (late 4th member of Lootpack) finally dropped his new full length "full-time work, part-time pay" in august (online) --- "for the slow folks out there, no offense" as he mentioned :)

after listenin to it several times over the last weeks - make sure you you do the same, cause it's a little bit more conceptual and weird than the ones before - i take the liberty to say: anotha killlaaaah release for example featuring a beautiful track by "nonameko" (i had to point that one out) or Cornbread - stop sleeping on these folks fam: "stoned is the way of the walk" ... and sry for no links, but you've got to choose your download weapon on your own. "I'm workin on physical releases" he said and maybe we'll hear more later this year, we'll see. enjoy, lens

Ex Co-Founder of Slum-TV Alexander Nicolic started a new project in Vienna after giving the responsibility for the Slum-TV project to the local members. Another 5 year project? We, hope SO! Together with two artists friends, he took over a yugoslavian worker's bar in the 16th district. Why, yugoslavian? Well, we have more than 200000 ppl living in this town, and many of them came as yugoslavian workers here. Of course the dramatic events of the last decades did generate a division based on ethnical categories, but one is theory - another thing is the every day live of the working class. Nothing is ideal here, but in every day live, in Vienna, these workers still mingle, regardless where they come from. Is it the common language, the austrian discrimination or something else, which hold's them together?

Next to the bar, they opened a space, which they use as a gallery in a way, as rehearsal venue for public space projects, as cultural center, which intends always to include the locals. To generate a social and political space, where academic discourse can meet working class issues. The first exhibition is as well opened. The Beauty of Work, by Andrej Filev is processual and will be closed on 11th of July, with a huge party.

BOEM - Koppstrasse 26 in Vienna's 16th district. Opening hours: daily (6am - 12pm, except sunday and holidays (9am - 10pm)

During the 60's and early 70's, as the war in Vietnam threatened its borders, a new music scene emerged in Cambodia that took Western rock and roll and stood it on its head - creating a sound like no other. Cambodian musicians crafted this sound from the various rock music styles sweeping across America and England, adding the unique melodies and hypnotic rhythms of their traditional music. The beautiful singing of the renowned female vocalists became the final touch that made this mix so enticing.

As the peasant Khmer Rouge army closed in on the capital city of Phnom Penh, Cambodian rock and rollers played at rooftop parties while bombs ignited the evening sky. After taking over the country on April 17, 1975, the Khmer Rouge began one of the most brutal genocides in history, killing 2 million people - 1/4 of the Cambodian population. Intellectuals, artists and musicians were murdered simply for their status. Only a few miraculously survived to tell their story. synopsis taken from official website - trailer/website
