Antics Presents:
MALUCA and PAUL DEVRO
Mad Decent Party

Crawdaddy
2nd September '09
Doors 11pm
Entry €5

Antics has always been a fan of the Mad Decent sound. It's definitely one of the first things I got into when I started listening to and playing electronic music with Diplo bridging the gap between dance and indie but also championing latin sounds, baltimore and much more. Diplo's label has been leading the way for some time so I'm delighted to be bringing to Dublin 2 of the newes faces on that label:

MALUCA

Her Diplo produced debut single "El Tigeroso" has been a big hit in the world of blogging and brings a new sound to clubbing. New York based Dominican, Maluca, burst on to the scene at this years SXSW festival as part of the Mad Decent Soundsystem. It was used to showcase this brand new talent and it was one of the most talked about shows of the festival.

Latin infused energy from Dominican Republic via New York!




PAUL DEVRO

Paul writes a lot of the pieces on the AMZING Mad Decent Blog and is one of the most interesting producers coming from Mad Decent HQ right now. I'm particularily really, really into his remix of Radioclit's "Secousse". It's prefect.

Seems like a cool guy and from reading his posts over the past year or so on Mad Decent, knows his music.

A great way to get in the mood for EP!

This is amazing.

Check it out...

HEY!!!

We're delighted to announce that the AMAZING Von Bondies from detroit are playing Antics this WEDNESDAY 13th MAY after a late cancellation of a show.

I LOVE THESE GUYS. They're probably most well known for thier huge hit "C'mon C'mon" from a couple of years back. Gonna be a great night :-)

We're gonna move the indie to Crawdaddy for the night and Electro to the Lobby Bar

MIKE FIELDING (Crawdaddy)
The
Mighty Boosh are a comedy sensation know for their music as much as
their ridiculous humour. Mike Fielding aka NABOO, brother of Noel, is
coming to The Pod to celebrate Jesus and Easter Eggs by opening the
window into the musical mind of the greatest comedy series of the past
decade.

He'll be playing a wide mix of Indie/Electro/Party
Tracks and you'll have the opportunity to get up close and personal in
the intimate surroundings of Crawdaddy.

Supporting will be Transmission Dj's Dave Salacious, Trev Radiator and Dave Parle.




IN FLAGRANTI (The Pod)
From Brooklyn, New York, In Flagranti's music is not your typical disco sound. It's dirty and fast and a lot of fun. He's a porn obsessed fashion designer that's been bringing the sound of In Flagranti all over the world for years now.

He's already played much talked about shows in Dublin before with Shock, and now he returns to Dublin.

I'm really excited about this! Bringing some DISCO to Antics for the first time :-)

Support
from the AMAZING Deadbots (their dj sets are nt to be missed!), Ian Bright of Space Camp (purveyors of
disco in Dublin for quite some time now) and Mark Lam.

ANTICS PRESENTS
MAX TUNDRA
(Domino Records)

Plus Elsewhere Dj Set

Doors 11pm
Entry €5

Usual very good drinks promos

I think this could be one of the highlights of over 3 years of Antics. I really can't wait for this. If you haven't heard Max Tundra, go check out some You Tube or follow links below!!

ABOUT MAX TUNDRA BY OWEN PALLETT
(Final Fantasy, ex-Arcade Fire, Last Shadow Puppets arranger)

Max and I met in Barcelona in 2005 at Primavera Sound. His slot was at 4am. He put on a mask, wrapped himself up in tape, and played forty minutes of music made mostly using Amiga sample tracker software from the late 1980s. There was virtuosic melodica playing, Pointer Sisters-style singing, and an eight-minute version of “So Long, Farewell” from The Sound Of Music. I was wasted and ended up passing out on a beach in my underwear. When the sun rose, I woke up with dried merengue and sand glued to my hair, and in a daze, I realized that I had just witnessed nothing less than the best music performance of my life.

What sets Max Tundra apart from any other band in the world is his attention to detail. This album is impossibly full of ideas, seeking out every imaginable sound in the world and giving each their own curtain call. When you listen to this album, you'd think that it was made by an eccentric millionaire, with every name-brand pop music producer in the world contributing their own two seconds of material. Upon closer inspection, you'd realize that it's been six years since “Mastered By Guy At The Exchange”; in that time, Max probably hasn't had a single good night's sleep.

I can't compare this record to any record I've ever heard before. Even Max's previous records are a distant echo. It is dance music, it is discourse, it is teen sex comedy, it is a video game, it is a dance troupe, it is a thirteen course meal with Amontillado. It is shock and awe. Listen and be humbled.

BIOGRAPHY

Max Tundra, real name Ben Jacobs, is an English multi-instrumental musician, singer and music producer. He has released two well-received albums for Domino Records: Some Best Friend You Turned Out To Be released in 2000 and Mastered By Guy At The Exchange released in 2002. He has completed his third album, and it is scheduled for an October 2008 release. He was one of the last ever musicians to record a Peel Session on John Peel's radio show before Peel's death. He hosts a weekly radio show on Resonance FM, called Max Tundra's Rotogravure.
