On May 6th we’ll be partying in Club Styx. Swing by to hear mixes by the Glitch.CZ crew, Ingtzi, Claviq, Denoir, and tvprodukt. Also, on the same night tune into the Czech Radio 1 at 11 PM to hear a live set by Ingtzi on Basstrap. I can now be in two locations at once thanks to the modern marvels of cloning.
This is the first episode of a monthly podcast featured on Glitch.CZ. The format includes two musicians, always from two different continents, each playing an approximately 15 to 30 minute set. We hope this podcast will help spread awareness of diverse and emerging musical talents around the world.
This month features the Slovakian producer and monome masher, Foolk. Plus, an exclusive never before heard live set by San Fransisco’s Shipwrek, featuring material from his upcoming release titled ‘Ink’. An interview with Shipwrek follows his performance.
The Slovakia-born experimental music producer Dusan Vanco, has been working under the alias Foolk since 2007. His Music is like a colorful trip through layers of micro-sampling, cut beats, electronic soundscapes and intentional sound destruction. From his live sets you can expect a ton of sampling, beat cutting, and wonky experimentation with his Monome.
Shipwrek’s first release titled ‘Journal’ is a journey through the enchanted mundane. Having sampled everything from a forest’s wind to whistling strangers in a back-ally, Shipwrek has imbued his music with something intensely powerful. Experiences, thoughts, and feelings were recorded in a process he refers to as “music journaling”. Because of this, every track is like being on the verge of a new discovery yet simultaneously, there is a gentle familiarity.

In March Glitch.CZ will be moving to a new location, so it’s time to say “good-bye” to the lovely Brick Bar by getting utterly glitch-faced. To help us in this endeavor we’ve invited some of Prague’s finest including MikeH, Claviq and Denoir. Expect full on original productions by the talented Claviq.
What a show we’ve got lined up for you! Foolk is coming all the way from Bratislava to promote his Lush Hour EP and play a live wonky dance set in Prague. DJ Lixx will be traveling and performing along his side. Foolk, armed with his trusty monome and his sidekick DJ Lixx, with his artful scratches, will put together a glorious cacophony at the Brick Bar. That’s not to say that DJ Lixx can’t hold his own. Recognized as the best Slovak Drum&Bass DJ of 2008, DJ Lixx will also be mixing up styles ranging from the experimental to the minimal.
We got such a great response from tvprodukt‘s performance a few months ago that it was a given we’d see him back at Glitch.CZ. And we can’t forget Claviq, who has tendency to rip up the stage beyond recognition. And to tie the night together we’ll have an original visual display by FiveToTwelve!
Don’t Miss Out! It’s 2010!
