MUTE und Musikbüro präsentieren - A Guy called Gerald – live in concert!

Am 16.12.00 präsentiert das Musikbüro in Zusammenarbeit mit MUTE, A Guy called Gerald – live in concert! A Guy called Gerald, der Techno- und Drum’n’bass-Pionier hat sich in den vergangen 13 Jahren als Produzent und Dj in der internationalen Clubszene einen Namen erarbeitet. Den grossen kommerziellen Sprung vollbrachte er nie, sein Einfluss auf Produzenten, Dj’s und Kritiker ist jedoch enorm, war er doch immer einen Schritt (zu weit) voraus. A Guy Called Gerald, Gründungsmitglied der britischen Techno-Band 808 State, gelang 1989 mit dem Acid-House-Klassiker „Voodo Ray“ der Durchbruch in der internationalen Dj-Szene. Nach der ersten schlechten Erfahrung mit einem Major machte er 1993 mit dem nachweislich ersten Drum’n’Bass-Album „28 Gun Bad Boy“ wieder auf sich aufmerksam. 1995 folgte „Black Secret Technology“, eines der ersten Drum’n’Bass-Alben mit Jazz-Einfluss – die Kritiker waren begeistert und auch die Verkaufszahlen stimmten. Mit dem Nachfolger von „Black Secret Technology“, „Aquarius“, war das Plattenlabel nicht zufrieden und er verwarf sich ein weiteres Mal mit einem Major. Danach tauchte Gerald ab und kehrt jetzt mit seinem neuen Album „Essence“ in die Clubs der Welt zurück. Ein Album das nicht unbedingt in das Release-Jahr 2000 mit Produktion von Bad Company zu passen scheint. Besinnt er sich mit dem neuen Album doch auf die alte Schule, zwar fehlen die offensichtlichen Visionen, doch bringt er auf eine sympatische Weise das Feeling in den Breakbeat zurück. „Essence“ – eine verträumte Menschlichkeit, Soul im wahrsten Sinne des Wortes! Don’t miss it!

15 December: Vega, Copenhagen, Denmark

Vega får fredag aften besøg af en af pionererne inden for britisk elektronisk musik. Som A Guy Called Gerald var Gerald Simpson med i det første acidhouse-boom i 1988 med klassikeren ''Voodoo Ray''. Programmøren, der stammer fra det benhårde Moss Side-område i Manchester, har siden leget med både drum'n'bass og ren techno. På sin seneste udgivelse ''Essence'' dyrker han en mere lyttevenlig stil med vokaler og triphop.

Gerald Simpson på Voxhall

En af de originale skabere af drum'n'bass spiller i aften på VoxHall.

Af LOUISE WILHELMSEN

A Guy Called Gerald - en af drum'n'bassens originale skabere kommer til Århus den 14. december og spiller med fuldt liveband på Voxhall.

A Guy Called Gerald vendte i sommer tilbage efter fem års kun delvist frivillig tavshed i New York med albummet "Essence".

Med gæstesangere som Louise Rhodes fra Lamb, og Lady Miss Kier fra Deee-Lite og det ubeskrevne blad Wendy Page har han lavet et sjælfuldt album af lækre lydbilleder og dybe, underliggende, sorte strømninger.
Omvandrende milepæl

A Guy Called Gerald var en af de store på den engelske acid house-scene og som medlem af Manchester-gruppen 808:State var han med til at skrive acid house hymnen "Pacific State". Som soloartist har han markeret sig gang på gang med stilskabende albums som den nyklassiske "Black Secret Technology" fra 1995.

Magasinet Blender har skrevet om hr. Gerald Simpson, at han er en omvandrende milepæl. En af den slags musikere, som altid har været på vej et nyt sted hen og en af den slags musikere, som altid har forstået at udvinde substansen af de nye grænseenge, som han altid har været på vej igennem. Der er ingen navne i britisk, elektronisk musik som ham, skriver Blender.

Joi GB

The band Joi began in the early 1980s with brothers Farook and Haroon Shamsher who started as a DJ duo and soon went on to create groundbreaking world fusion music. They grew up in Bradford, England, but as kids moved to Brick Lane in London’s East End where their father ran a traditional music shop, and would record tapes in a back room to sell on the street. The Shamsher brothers learned tablas and flutes and began experimenting mixing their music with prerecorded songs from people like James Brown and Nusrat Fateh Ali Kahn. They began DJing at neighborhood parties in the early 1980’s and then began organizing their own raves first under the name “League of Joi Bangla Youth Organisation,” then shortened to “Joi Bangla,” and finally shortened to simply “Joi.”

A Guy called Gerald GB

Where do you start with A Guy Called Gerald? A hidden gem, the gateway between Chicago house / Detroit Techno and the UK dance music explosion in the late 80s. He is one of a few special producers who entered dance music in the jacking zone. He is the first UK acid house producer and the first producer to have two instrumental dance tracks in the UK charts at the same. He formed 808 State with a drum machine, a 303, 2 Roland SH101s and 2 other humans. His collaborations stem from Frankie Knuckles, Goldie, Finley Quaye and Derrick May through to Herbie Hancock, remixed for David Bowie, Lamb, Stone Roses, Black Uhuru, Can, Tricky, Roman Fluegel and The Orb and toured with New Order, Tricky and Bebel Gilberto.

Joi : "We are Three", le nouvel album de ce groupe fusionnant la musique indienne a l'electronique occidentale, fait reference a la croyance de Joi aux forces qui nous entourent. Un voyage qui nous immerge dans le son riche de "l'Asian Underground". (Virgin)

A Guy Called Gerald : Apres son passage aux Nuits Botanique, A Guy Called Gerald nous revient. Bien qu'influence a la base par la house de Chicago, Gerald Simpson est devenu une des figures les plus audacieuses et aventureuses de la scene electronique anglaise. (Zomba)

Studio Pagol : Compose d'ex-membres du groupe Largo, Studio Pagol se tourne vers l'Asie pour un nouveau projet tres "global", plus electro, mais toujours tres "Belgian touch" : un melange arabo-andalou flamand (comme si Arno rencontrait Natacha Atlas) pimente d'une rencontre avec le milieu indo-pakistanais bruxellois!

2 December: Maffia Club, Reggio Emilia, Italy

Details

maffia circolo arci - viale ramazzini, 33 - reggio emilia - italy - tel. 0522.922280 - fax 920235

Sabato sera al Maffia è andato in scena Gerald Simpson, un personaggio che ha cavalcato da protagonista la storia della musica dance, dal periodo dei raves, all’acid house e quindi al drum’n’bass. Il suo album precedente all’ultimo "Sensation", uscito quest’anno per la "Studio K7", risaliva al 1995 ("Black Secret Technology", Juice Box, 1995) negli anni d’oro della jungle.

Dopo cinque anni A Guy Called Gerald è tornato con un nuovo album ("Essence"), che secondo la stampa specializzata rinnova la formula del drum’n’bass unendolo alla struttura della canzone, a brani cantati. Di fronte a lui, che rimane dietro la consolle, infatti comparivano due vocalist, il fratello di Gerald e una avvenente fanciulla di colore. La voce del fratello Simpson è apparsa sotto tono rispetto a quella della controparte femminile; non è un caso, probabilmente, che i brani più convincenti siano stati quelli dove cantava lei. I pezzi che vedevano Gerald all’opera da solo strizzavano l’occhio all’hard core, con ritmi piuttosto martellanti, suoni taglienti come lame e bassi allungati torcibudella. L’esibizione è durata piuttosto poco: iniziata all’una precisa, poco dopo le due era già finita, e i tre si sono messi a ballare con il resto del pubblico la musica proposta dal Maffia Sound System.

I pezzi migliori della serata avevano qualche coloritura techno, oppure i ritmi si ponevano lievemente a latere rispetto a quelli tipici del drum’n’bass che più frequentemente capita di sentire in questo periodo, con scansioni e accenti più originali, come ad esempio nel primo pezzo cantato dalla notevole voce femminile, con un ritmo puramente tecnologico, ma che ritrovava elettrizzanti echi tribali.

From thestranger:

DONALD GLAUDE, A GUY CALLED GERALD (Showbox)

From his late '80s turn in acid house, producing club smashes with the likes of 808 State, to his seminal drum 'n' bass release Black Secret Technology in 1995 and beyond, Mancunian Gerald Simpson has remained a tireless traveler on the beat highway--taking some interesting detours down Electro Avenue and Detroit Drive along the way. The year 2000 finds him, after a five-year lull, still cruising along in the Black Secret lane, albeit at a somewhat kinder, gentler pace. Female vocalists--from Lamb's Louise Rhodes to the Deee-Lite-ful Lady Miss Kier--on his latest, Essence, are a welcome warm breath on the frosty surface of Gerald's d'n'b planet, though the album still retains a spacy cool that may make it tough for some to cozy up to. New material aside, disciples of dance music would be foolish to miss a session with the man who became an innovative player in so many subgenres, and whose trail of releases as both DJ, collaborator, and producer are a virtual Cliffs Notes history of the scene.

A Guy Called Gerald

Wo soll man anfangen, mit dem Typen der Gerald genannt wird? Soll man von der Kirche in Manchester erz�hlen, wo er in den frühen 70ern neben seiner Mutter sitzt, den Orgelkl�ngen lauscht und beschlie�t. Musiker zu werden? Oder vom Soul der "Jackson Five", die ihn einige Jahre sp�ter aus der Langeweile retteten? Von den Scratchbeat Mastern (sp�tere 808 State), seiner ersten Band, nachdem Soul zu Funk und Funk zu HipHop geworden war? Oder man bezeichnet den Wahl-New-Yorker schlichtweg als Pionier der elektronischen Musik, der seit den Acid-House-Tagen ein Garant f�r wegweisende Produktionen und mit seinem Schaffen in den fr�hen 90ern ein Vorreiter des Drum&Bass ist.

Jedenfalls ver�ffentlichte er im Juli mit "Essence" (amazon.de) nach einer Zeit der juristisch bedingten Abstinenz vom Plattenmarkt (�rger mit dem Ex-Label) das - ohne �bertreibung - fetteste Elektro-/Breakbeat-Album des Jahres. Und eben dieses wird er am Donnerstag, den 5. Oktober live im Soundpark Ost pr�sentieren - und live hei�t hier nicht, da� da der Typ, der Gerald genannt wird, hinter einem Pult an ein paar Reglern herumschraubt. Im Gegenteil "A Guy Called Gerald" kommt mit einer richtigen Band und DJ lan Simmons aka Juryman fürs Vorprogramm.

No information available (was listed on the !K7 website)

"The only downside is the apparent absence of the big league DJs. Both Laurent Garnier and Carl Cox were pencilled in for sets, but neither of them seem to be present. Likewise, Gilles Peterson, Romanthony, Josh Wink, Dimitri From Paris, A Guy Called Gerald and Underground Resistance's Rolando are all in Paris for the consecutive Mix Move 2000 but, criminally, none of them play the festival's central event! In fact, the nearest we ever get to 'Knights of The Jaguar' is when some wise DJ drops the first 30 seconds of it into a mix of deep trance. The best thing is that it doesn't even matter, because the rest of the deck-wreckers surrender their sound systems to a flowing array of hard house and banging techno, with occasional diversions into drum'n'bass and jungle. Two wee floats house live percussionists creating a tantalising stream of Brazilian - jazz fusion, but the subtlety of their tracks is completely lost amidst the stew of breaks'n' beats, as Paris raves the afternoon away.

A Guy Called Gerald
Au Sona, le 26 août

A Guy Called Gerald a envahi le bar du Sona samedi soir. Reconnu dernièrement pour son drum’n’bass, le D.J. britannique a plutôt emprunté la voie du funk lors de sa visite éclair à Montréal. Serein derrière les platines, Gerald a commencé sa prestation avec un house rapide et extrêmement groovy, pour y incorporer ensuite des élans de percussions. Tous les types de solos ont été entendus, du piano à la flûte, en passant par la guitare électrique et les voix. Le souci des sons recherchés ainsi que les influences jazz ont caractérisé sa prestation: le D.J. a même joué Rose rouge, le dernier extrait du Français St Germain (voir l’article sur celui-ci dans nos pages). Ses mix précis ont permis de soutenir le groove jusqu’à la fin de la soirée, et il a su utiliser de façon efficace la technique beat-to-beat. Mais sans plus. Car n’est pas excellent D.J. qui veut: le talent de D.J. ne découle pas nécessairement du talent de producteur. On s’attendait en effet à plus de diversité et de nouveauté de la part de cet artiste de renom. Je ne suis pas déçu, loin de là, car le set était solide et entraînant pour les jambes, mais la tête n’était pas toujours bien servie. De ce point de vue, j’ai presque préféré le Montréalais Pfreud, qui l’a précédé. La performance de Gerald aura toutefois été un bon prélude au reste de la soirée, et la foule l’a vite compris: un fois sa prestation terminée, es fêtards se sont précipités pour continuer la danse du côté de l’after-hour.

Anyway, Gerald played three sets in SF last night at Amoeba Records, a Beta Lounge live set and at Justice League.I missed Amoeba, but at Beta Lounge (www.betalounge.com), he played predominantly House and Techno and very little Drum 'n' Bass (and looked very bored for most of the set). "

Manchester encore avec A GUY CALLED GERALD, mais la teinte est beaucoup plus noire, la musique plus charnue. le drum & bass eclaire de A GUY CALLED GERALD est beaucoup plus federateur que celui du tr�s radical RONI SIZE. Beats moins durs, basse jou�e par un giant arme de sept (!) cordes, voix feminine tres soul... la musique se fait chaleureuse est enveloppante. Tres bonne reaction du public (au moins celui qui n'est pas parti bouffer des crepes en relant "il est ou le rock").

NME REVIEW:

"Gerald Simpson, a.k.a. A Guy Called Gerald, ended his five-year drought on new material yesterday (June 30th) by performing to a packed house at Shine in New York City, where Simpson now makes his home. Finley Quaye was supposed to share the bill, but as Simpson later apologises, he couldn't make it. At times, the music slid into the background, as on soulful tracks like "Humanity", "Fever (or a Flame)", "Universal Spirit" and "Could You Understand". Then it rushes back, rattling the tiny club's rafters with earth-shaking bass. A ragga number skitters in; deep house grooves shuffle out. Then there's "Voodoo Ray", the acid house anthem that thrills the crowd immensely. "

New Morning
7, rue des Petites Ecuries,
10e, M' Chateau d'Eau,
Paris
France

featuring Louise Rhodes from Lamb
Plus Funkstörung (Live), Terranova (DJ Set), Beth Hirsch (Live)

Voici une soirée un peu exceptionnelle, qui d’avance laisse présager un certain eclectisme. En effet, c’est le label allemand Studio-K7 qui fait tourner une partie de leurs artistes.

Peu de monde devant la porte du New Morning, une trentaine de personnes quand on commence a rentrer. Mais petit a petit la salle se remplie, et c’est devant une salle a moitié pleine que va jouer Beth Hirsch.

Accompagnée d’une guitare et d’une contrebasse, Beth Hirsch se lance sans filet, et nous montre la force de sa voix, ses changements de tonalité, ses arrêts brusques, ses reprises, ses accélérations.

Superbes chansons pop, voix magnifique, vraiment rien a redire. Le public est silencieux et attend la dernière note pour applaudir.

Elle nous dit qu’elle est contente d’être là, ce qui fait plaisir, et elle prend le temps de nous parler des chansons qu’elle nous offre.

Vraiment une excellente découverte, et superbe début de soirée.

Un petit break, et c’est A Guy Called Gerald qui prend la place de Beth. On a beaucoup parlé de lui lors de la sortie de Black Secret Technology en 1995, album devenu culte, et c’est avec impatiente qu’est attendu le prochain : Essence.

Ce concert est en quelque sorte une préview de ce nouvel album, mais on restera perplexe. En effet la musique est agréable, alternant entre drum’n bass tranquille et jungle dansante. D’ailleurs le public maintenant en nombreux squatte la piste et s’en donne a coeur joie.

Quant à nous, on retiendra la superbe prestation de Louise Rhodes, chanteuse de Lamb, sur le magnifique Humanity, titre drum’n bass aux mélodies aériennes.

Globalement, une prestation honnête, mais qui musicalement se retrouve un peu a là traîne, un peu trop emprunt au trip-hop.

Pour terminer, la raison de notre présence ici, Funkstörung. C’est derrière un ordinateur portable et quelques instruments électronique tenant sur une petite table, que les deux artistes sont cachés, laissant place à MC pour quelques pas de break dance.

Les premiers morceaux sont rugueux, aux intonations hip-hop. Pas le meilleur de Funkstörung, mais il semblerait que ce soit la direction qu’ils comptent prendre. Le phrasé du MC y est pour beaucoup, mais on n’aimera pas trop également ses gentils avertissements : "Attention, vous allez entendre là quelque chose de vraiment différent", ou bien "Je défis quiconque de danser sur le prochain morceau", ou encore "ces deux mecs sont carrément fous".

Franchement, on s’en tape.

Et puis il se calme, les morceaux deviennent plus planant, les mélodies superbes et en parfaite opposition avec les rythmiques déstructurées et métalliques. L’ambiance monte, le public apprécie, et en redemande.

Ce fut vraiment une excellente prestation de la part de deux musiciens présent pour son public. Alors que le concert semble finis, le public demandant un rappel avec insistance, ils reviennent à la charge pour plusieurs morceaux, le MC invite tout le monde a venir danser sur la scène, etc...

Finalement il sera l’heure d’arrêter. Michael Fakesh et Chris de Luca se sentent obligés de continuer, pour leur public, mais le MC nous les enlèvera... définitivement.

A la prochaine !!....

"A laptop, a mixing desk and sound like a stethoscope put to a troubled stomach, this, in essence, is Germany's Funkstörung. Sure, there are the operatives, Michael Fakesch and Chris De Luca, who first became renowned for remixing Wu-Tang Clan and Bjork. But they take electronica sheepishness to new levels, as they attempt to prove their headphones-filling mix of fragile melodies floating in dub swells can also waylay venues.

Rewardingly, think LFO-deep techno, flashes of Detroit rhythm and an impressive range of clunking and spluttering. Think of a sound both as crisp as daybreak and as crushing as an electric storm. But don't, sadly, think that for too long...

...Because the gawky reticence of the Funkstörung duo is welcome compared to the ungainly cockiness of their rapper chum, MC Triple H. His lyrics seemingly informed by Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy, Ali G and Neuromancer, he emerges halfway through to ooze unconvincing menace. Then he leaps on the dancefloor to pester the small crowd into yelping karaoke-style into the mic. Then he nicks someone's beer. All traces of ice-cool techno gravitas disappeared some time ago.

Next up is A Guy Called Gerald. This Mancunian - who started out with 808 State and who pretty much invented drum'n'bass but left Goldie, Grooverider et al to scoop the plaudits - has been living on the fringes for over a decade, but this, believe it or not, is his live debut in front of a paying audience. [Erm, no it isn't! - Nick]

Perched as innocuously as Funkstörung behind his hardware, he introduces a slew of guest vocalists, including Lamb's Louise Rhodes, and, in tracks like 'Humanity' and 'Fever', a sound which sways uneasily between post-breakbeat chic landing right on time, and soul-tinged jungle emerging four years too late.

Funny thing is, when Gerald goes back to the beginning of his peculiar 'career', the results are as modern as this month's latest technological breakthrough. The track in question is 'Voodoo Ray', the proto-rave barrage of irregular rhythms and funky chimes which rocked warehouses, introduced clubland to the ingenious phrase 'Mental!' and showed the then dominant US that the UK was getting the hang of dance. Ten years on, British dance music and culture rules, but Gerald hides in the shadows. Something tells you that's the way it will always remain.

Andy Crysell"
