Great footage from recent shows where I've been working alongside vj DO as dj/vj team The Latest Artists, and other guest dj's!

Happy December,

Happy New Year everyone!  While I hope your '08 is great, I want to take this opportunity to share w/ you some of the work I completed in '07!

During my European sojourn, I completed some new tracks and started working with the guys @ ODrex Music, a Montreal-born, Berlin-based net label, w/ a broad catalogue containing Detroit-inspired techno, hip-hop, and experimental sounds.

You can preview (and download!) the whole catalogue at the website: www.odrexmusic.com

. . . but let me first focus your attention on a few particular releases:


ODnet 014
* Twin Peetz: 4 Rounds and an Exit
* Make sure to check out track 3 (3rd Round) where I make an appearance.
* Listen here.


ODnet 016
* Andrew O'Malley (AO): Meditation EP
* my first solo offering on ODrex, featuring four rhythmic and loopy tracks completed in Lille, FR, and Berlin, DE.
* Listen here.


ODnet 018
* PAF: 3D Audio Vision
* Peetz, Andrew, and Frank spent hours jamming the Berlin afternoons away, and this is a taste of the results.
* Listen here.

You can download the releases by following the "Netlabel" link on ODrex Music site.

Cheers for the New Year,
ao.

Greetings MyFriends!

I'm excited to announce my participation in this year's Candela light show in Ottawa!



Candela is a visual arts exhibition featuring works focused on electric light as the medium.

The show runs from Sept. 20 - 30 @ Cube Gallery (7 Hamilton Ave. N.,  Ottawa, Ontario, Canada).

On Friday Sept. 21, Deb and I will be doing a dj / vj performance for the opening party.

Later this month, on Sept. 27 and 28, the piece we did for last year's Candela show in Ottawa will be featured at the IIDEX / NeoCon lighting trade show in Toronto.

Here's a video of the piece:



Hope you had a great summer and are on your way to a productive autumn . . .

Stop by for an evening of relaxed electronic beats and expressive video, all in the swanky 70's surroundings the PG Lounge!

Mi. 30 Mai, 21H+
"The Latest Artists" debut night:
dj AO : minimal / electro / tech-house (music)
vj DO : organic / electric / monographic (video)

Looking forward to seeing you soon,
ao + dEb

Calling all my_BERLIN_friends,



I've arrived in Berlin for the summer, and what better way to kick off my time here than to have a housewarming party at my flat here . . . Bring some drinks and a fun attitude, and a great beginning to your evening is sure to follow!

My hosting duties will be shared between entertaining conversations, guests, etc., and dj'ing; and I'm excited to announce that "vj DO" will be sharing some of her visual perceptions :)

This is an RSVP event, so get in touch if you want to stop by next Saturday (26 May) evening!

Cheers,
ao.

Salut "MyFriends",


Merci à chacun qui a essayé de venir vendredi soir pour ma soirée « Farewell France » au Kiosk ! Pour des raisons indépendantes de ma volonté, le club était fermé et ma gig a été annuler.  Je ne me suis pas renseigné sur ceci jusqu'à ce qu'il ait été trop tard. Veuillez agréer mes excuses pour cet événement triste.

Merci aussi à tout le monde qui sont assister mes soirées précédents en France ! C'était un grand plaisir de vous rencontrer et de partager ma musique avec vous.

Je souhaite à tous mes nouveaux amis en France par été merveilleux, et j'espaire que nous pouvons rester dans le contact !


Thanks to everyone who tried to come out on Friday night for my "Farewell France" party at Kiosk!  For reasons beyond my control, the club was closed and my gig was cancelled.  I did not learn about this until it was too late.  Please accept my apologies for this sad turn of events.

Thanks also to everyone who's come out to my previous events in France!  It was a great pleasure to meet you and share my music with you.

I wish all my new friends in France a wonderful summer, and hope we can keep in touch!

A+,
ao.
