As you might have noticed, Sonido Ojo Rojo hasn't been sleeping this year and put out 2 releases already with another one waiting to be dropped in August.

With a growing number of stores, both online and physical, we thought this might be the time to update you about the current situation:

Releases SOR002 DJ Kompact - Return Of July 7" and SOR003 Obahuba - Hart & Zart 12" can be found in these cities: Vienna, Graz, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Munich, Berlin, Barcelona, London and New York City with an ever growing shop list. For further details head over to the corresponding release pages.

If you can't find your city or if you just don't want to leave home, SOR releases can be ordered online at HHV.de (Germany) or at .

I'm going for a swim and don't forget: ROTAUG GOES FLORIDO TONITE!

out.

Yeeeah! What a nice welcome to this summer! Starting today, July 17th, 20:00, with Sonido Ojo Rojo's own Lens J. and Exidas kicking it off, there will be a Friday regular the whole summer long until the beginning of September (depending on the weather) at freshly pimped Florido Independent Beach, Neue Donau, Vienna.

Expect your usual quality tunes from SOR members ranging from hiphop to dub to deephouse, a little dubstep and a tiny taste of 8bit and chiptune music, nice atmosphere, cheap drinks, free entry, a sandy beach, and some special guests soon to be announced.

Also, don't forget to join the "official" kickoff on Saturday, August 1st, hosted by our friends from A Journey Into Sound, Hnzn and Perrez, featuring none less than 1020 Funk legend and hiphop don DJ Cut-Ex and other special guest TBA!

For directions please checkout the event posts to your right! Enjoy a fine and hopefully sunny summer in the city!

Peace.

Yo!

As you might have noticed already, over the last couple of days your rotaug.com experience might not have been as joyful as usual since we had some trouble with our server. But thanks to Rotaug's own mighty Berserka and Willi from Typoheads we're back online again with lots of info coming your way. Watch out!

The Vertual Vertigo Europe Tour, which started last Friday at Café Strom, Linz (Thx to Flip...) has reached a peak last Saturday in Innbruck with a great lineup and a incredible partycrowd! Thanks go out to Albi, Monomassive, Mosch and the rest of the crews for having us and Amewu, Wisdom and especially DJ Werd for their gifted life performance and for sharing the stage with us. It's been a BLAST!

But it's not over yet. The Tour continues TODAY Monday, June 8th at Café Leopold, MQ Vienna at 22:00 with FREE entry! So come bring a couple of friends if you want to enjoy a monday night like no other before...

After the Austria shows, we will be heading up to Berlin to perform at the official Vertual Vertigo "Sparkies Bungalow" CD Release party alongside Berlin based producer 8bit on Wednesday, June 10th.

Last but not least, Sonido Ojo Rojo has been hard at work too with 2 new releases coming up this summer: Hart & Zart 12" by Obahuba and Illuminate feat. 215 The Freshest Kidz 7" by DJ Kompact. Go check it out at our Release Page.

That's about all for now, stay tuned for media documenting the tour soon!

Peace out

LENS IS BACK WITH SOME MIX-UP-DATE

06. of April, 2009 | Posted in

after some busy time i was really looking forward to put a new mixtape together. its called "don't let this rapshit fool ya" named after the first track by blahzay blahzay. i posted the A-side a while ago and now it was ment to be joined by the B-side. both of them a mixture of some of my alltime favourites and other tracks that joined them recently. from dilated peoples, souls of mischief to dday one, the rza, madlib, chochlair, grav, apani b, melomaniac, masta ace, ... and dcs.

and there is a recording of last weekends digital konfusion mixshow, where i tried to give the minority sounds a little bit of airtime. quarta 330, disrupt, g.corp, akira kiteshi, and so on. from dubby dubstep to dubstep and 8-bit a like.

for our 10th anniversary

lens digitalized one of the most important milestones in ROTAUG HISTORY. the rotaug mixtape #1 called

"ICHIBAN" by DJ CRAAK

which means: the first time our name ROTAUG was officially written on something concrete - like the tape cover of this strictly limited edition of 30 tapes - and since then stands for our connection of friends sharing the same artistic interests.

listen to a part of our musical roots.

the sounds of the beatnuts, masterminds, mos def, dj honda, ..., pete rock and some extreme scratchin and juggeling by dj craak back in 1999.

DIGG THE ROTAUG ARCHIVES! PEACE
