Well… the only thing to do is call in a man who truly has sat at the cutting edge of dance music guiding and shaping it all the way from when things started hotting up mid ‘80s. From Acid House to Jungle to Drum & Bass, A Guy Called Gerald has constantly sought new sounds and helped to champion the diversity of dance music. Growing up in ‘70s Manchester, Gerald Simpson’s’ early influences had first gospel, then soul, then funk and later hip-hop melting into his brain to shape what would become a truly unique ear for the trend that were making people dance.

Gerald Simpson, beter bekend als A Guy Called Gerald, behoort al sinds 1980 tot de meest innovatieve artiesten in de elektronische muziek. Gefascineerd door gospel en de Jackson 5 kwam de man uit Manchester in aanraking met hiphop en electro, en al snel begon hij te experimenteren met tapes en loops. Hij werd lid van The Hit Squad, dat later de naam veranderde in 808 State en was grotendeels verantwoordelijk voor hun eerste album "Newbuild". Toen de plaat uitkwam had hij de band al. Hij ging solo en bracht als A Guy Called Gerald in 1989 "Voodoo Ray" uit, waarmee hij in de hitlijsten terecht kwam. Het nummer werd het lijflied van duizenden ravers. Gerald stapte vervolgens over naar breakbeats In 1993 kwam hij met het album "28 Gun Bad Boy", een blauwdruk voor de latere jungle. Twee jaar later was er "Black Secret Technology", het allereerste drum 'n' bass album ooit, dat bovendien tijdloos is gebleken. Gerald brengt tegenwoordig platen uit op !K7. In 2000 kwam "Essence" uit, met gastbijdragen van o.a. Lady Miss Kier (Deee-Lite) en Louise Rhodes (Lamb), en onlangs maakte hij een mixalbum "Flavour". |

With Chari Chari NOTE 単なるクラブイベントを超越し、ある時代やシーンを象徴する"アイコン"として機能するパーティがある。もちろんそれは、贈り手の想像さえ上回る多くの偶然と必然が積み重なった、幸福な結果 なのだが。Kaoru Inoueが操る唯一無比のオーガニックサウンド。つぎつぎと表情を変えていく空間。オーディエンスが発散する純粋なヴァイブス。そしてすべてが渾然となった強烈な磁力。groundrhythmは、新しいTOKYOのアイコンとなり得る可能性を、もっとも強く感じさせるパーティである。 <KAORU INOUE> DJ、サウンドクリエイター、プロデューサー。00年1月、ultimarレーベルから作品がリリースされ、そのオリジナリティ溢れるサウンドが、世界中の業界関係者やアンダーグラウンド支持者達を唸らせた。ボーダレスな選曲ながら、単なるオールジャンルという言葉では括れない深い世界でフロアを包むスキルは、唯一無二。 <A GUY CALLED GERALD> イギリス・マンチェスター出身のA GUY CALLED GERALDは、80年代から絶え間なくミュージック・カルチャーに新たな世代・ジャンルを築き上げてきた。特にDrum & Bassには計り知れぬ影響を与えた人物として知られる。UKアシッド・ハウスが隆盛を極めた80年代後期、ジェラルドは808ステイトに在籍し『Pacific State』をヒットさせる。そして89年にソロ活動開始、アシッド・アンセムとなった『Voodoo Ray』でレイヴ・カルチャーを発狂させた。93年に自身のレーベルからリリースした『28 Gun Bad Boy』はKnowledge Magazineで歴代No.1のDrum and Bassトラックに賞され、不滅の栄誉を手にした。00年にはStudio K7から『Essence』をリリース。この優美で挑発的なプロダクションはMelodyにBreakbeatsとVocalを載せる実験として脚光を浴びた。 |

If you prefer parties to clubs then this is a good weekend to be going out dancing -- there's SCAND on Friday while on Saturday Electric Elvis and Lula will host another WANG party down at The Premises. Having just about recovered from this New Year's WANG, they've sorted out a good line-up for this their first party of 2003. Headliners are K-Rock (Rephlex) -- some-time Aphex Twin dancer and purveyor of dirty electro and techno mixed with funk, disco and a sprinkling of two-step -- and a Guy Called Gerald (who is said to have performed an epic 15-minute rendition of his seminal sampler track Voodoo Ray at the NYE WANG party!) Whether Gerald will be playing Detroit techno, acid house, electro, hardcore techno, drum 'n' bass, or all of the above in his set at this WANG is anyone's guess, but it'll be worth hearing whatever he plays! Plus there'll be sets from Dave Blankpage (blankpage + process), Disco Dave (electrophonic), and Laurence 'monzoid' Day (Analogue: Digital) amongst others, across several rooms. Nice venue, friendly faces, good music... |
