HMC @ Mad Racket – The Interestate Mardi Gras Special – Marrickville Bowlo : 07.03.2009

Filed under: Clubbing & Gigs,decoded_,Music — decoded_ @ 9:02 am

UPDATE : Just a quick follow-up. HMC was excellent at this! I really enjoyed what he played in both his DJ set and live set. I actually felt inspired and excited by the music, something I’ve not felt out for ages. Damien ‘Dames’ Donato helped out with the live set, from behind a mixing desk and racks of hardware samplers, rack-mount synths, effects processors etc. Nice to see a live set with no laptop/Ableton for a change. It didn’t feel like a very well attended Mad Racket though.

Some track-spotting from HMC’s sets…

DJ HMC – 6am
LCD Soundsystem – Sound Of Silver (Carl Craig C2 Remix Rev.3)
Depeche Mode – The Darkest Star (Holden Dub)
Tres Demented – Brain Freeze
DJ HMC – Phreakin’ [Live]
Giorgio Gigli & Donato Dozzy – Real Love EQ – Italy
DJ HMC – I Get Deeper [Live]
Sascha Dive – Deepest America (Moodymann Remix)
Recloose – Cardiology (Isolee Remix)

Adelaide (my home town) techno/house DJ/producer legend HMC [Dirty House Records, Dirty Acid Trax, Juice Records] plays Sydney this Saturday 7th March, at Mad Racket – Marrickville Bowlo, performing both live and DJ sets! I’m excited!

Time to put your mind in the gutter and you ass on the floor!

I wish they would digitally release their back catalogue. I’d rather give these guys $, than pay $ to strangers for second hand vinyl.

DAMC & DJ Brendon – We Are The Future

Filed under: Music — decoded_ @ 9:09 am

I made this rave/techno track with DJ Brendon in Adelaide, back in the early 1990’s. It got released on the Core EP 12″ (Core Magazine/Vicious Vinyl), then got licensed to Rabbit City Records UK, released on the Australian EP 12″. You can also find it on a Vicious Vinyl CD compilation. Carl Cox gave this track a lot of spins in 1994. Check out my DAMC page for an archive of all my 1990’s techno, rave, hardcore, jungle, drum & bass production and live performance activities.

Seeing someone else YouTube this, has inspired me to YouTube up all my old music, and music from fellow Adelaide producers of the time. You’ll find it here: http://www.youtube.com/user/techione
