Last night we invited 3 DJ’s (Coco Bryce, DJ Devastate & Solo Moderna) to play at Loos, 013, Tilburg, The Netherlands. Mister Adam painted live and here’s some footage!
One of our guests was Coco Bryce (who did a great skweee and dubstep set). He’s about to release a 7″ on his label Myor by Kelpe who earlier did the Chocolate Money EP on Fremdtunes. You can preview the tracks right here: http://20shotsequence.blogspot.com/2011/06/listen-kelpe-same-new-era-snippets.html. Also, the same fella did a remix for our upcoming release ‘Yield & continue’ by Saccage (also featuring Rude-D & 40 Winks). You can preview the tracks on Juno:
So, we recently released Coco Bryce’s album ‘Boesoek’. Scratchedvinyl.com wrote: “I don’t want to overstate anything and regret it later, but this is about as solid a début album you’ll come across from an instrumental producer. It’s interesting, varied, and fun, and I feel like I get something new out of it with each listen.” Tokyo Breath Sauce said: “It is really really fresh!!!”. Ninja Tune’s Slugabed described it as: “It’s like riding a phoenix through a waterfall.” Slow Hand Motëm announced: “IT BUMPS!!!” and our good friend producer/DJ Solo Moderna: “Excellent digidubby style, great release!!”. Enough for the good references: since we pressed a limited amount of copies we suggest you to be quick and order the vinyles while you can.
After first being released as 12″, Fremdtunes – the series 1 is now officially out as digital download!
This labelsampler contains 4 tracks by DJ Optimus, Coco Bryce (ft DJ Mace, Gumshoe & Incks), Kid Sundance/OptiMace (ft Rescue) and Solo Moderna/Fremdkunst and is an absolute must-have for any cut-n-click-n-paste-beats-lover… With ‘The series’ we try to portray our musical taste. Currently we are working on part 2 of ‘The series’ which will have some amazing tunes by Boulaone, DJ Vindictiv, Jameszoo and others.
Here’s a little compilation of ímages of a great Fremdtunes night at ‘Land van Loos’ at 013, Tilburg, The Netherlands. Mister Adam and Superelectric did live art and visuals. DJ’s were Jameszoo & Coco Bryce and Fremdkunst ‘pocket size’ featuring Erwin Vann performed live. The track on the video is by Solo Moderna (Fremdkunst’s ‘Sidewalk surfers & eccentric dancers’ remix). Enjoy!
Out now (November 1 2010)! Fremdtunes – the series 1: the first official Fremdtunes label-sampler with tracks by Coco Bryce (ft Gumshoe, Incks & Mace), DJ Optimus, Kid Sundance (ft Rescue) & Solo Moderna.Fremdtunes – the series shows a cross-section of the diverse music-styles the label focusses on. Spherical hiphop as well as dubby funkstep appear on this 4-track 12” vinyl piece. Although the tracks vary in style, all artists share a similar love for the art of cut-and-paste and are all known for being DJ ánd producer. Order this vinyl piece directly at Rushhour or go to your local recordstore and ask for this 12″. The artwork is done by the unstoppable Mister Adam and Superelectric, who were as a duo also responsible for the fantastic Fremdkunst viral video.
Digital downloads are also available! If you buy the EP as download on our bandcamp page you’ll get a free track by Esolar. So, go get ‘m at:
A lot has been going on at Fremdtunes HQ. First of all, we are about to release the ‘Chocolate Money EP’ 12″ by Kelpe ft remixes by Huess and Coco Bryce on November 22nd. Just recently we released our first album ‘Fremdkunst: b-beats & soundscapes’ (which had a great review in Dutch music-magazine Fret) and November 1st we put out our first vinyl record: ‘Fremdtunes – the series 1′: a 12″ labelsampler with music by DJ Optimus, Coco Bryce ft Gumshoe (The Proov) and Incks (Real Phresh), Kid Sundance and Solo Moderna. Nice to mention: the debut LP ‘Boesoek’ by Coco Bryce (releasedate February 14th 2011) is being mastered by Mokosound and so is ‘Fremdkunst: Zauberschwein by candlelight’. ‘Zauberschwein’ is a digital EP which will be released as – because we are so very generous people - free download on our bandcamp page. Mister Adam must be the most busy man on this planet because he’s doing all covers and designs for these releases, plus he’s working hard on a new expo with his superb project Mashville.
For your listening pleasure, we’ve put together a mixed-snippet-tape called Fremdblend – tunes for the future – volume one: a mix of snippets of recent and upcoming releases by Fremdtunes and is blended by DJ’s Mace and Optimus. The tape features tracks by artists like Fremdkunst, Kid Sundance, Kelpe, DJ Optimus, Coco Bryce, Saccage & Solo Moderna.
Producer/DJ Solo Moderna hooked us up with a superb, crazy, dubby Fremdkunst remix. This superfunky track will be released on our second release ‘Fremdtunes – the series volume 1′ (vinyl!). This label sampler will also feature music by Coco Bryce (ft Gumshoe, Incks & Mace), Kid Sundance (OptiMace remix) and DJ Optimus. You can check a snippet of ’Sidewalk surfers & eccentric dancers – Solo Moderna remix’ on soundcloud.
