The Antidote is a collective group of DJs / digital musicians / producers.
The Antidote is based in Shanghai, China.
We host a popular monthly music event in Shanghai (C's bar, free entry, last Thursday of every month) and another monthly with Live Electronic music. We also have regular monthly parties in several cities around China.
In early 2005, American DJ/promoter Michael "Ozone" and Shanghai-native designer/producer B6 started a little monthly party called "The Antidote" at C's, a dirty dive bar in Shanghai. The Antidote brought a refreshing, DIY, renegade style party that blew open the Shanghai music and party scene. Since then, the crew has played around greater China, and has been featured in countless magazines, TV, radio, newspapers, and websites around the world, including BBC, Time Magazine, NPR Radio, and New York Times. The Antidote posters, designed by B6, are currently on exhibit at the Victoria Albert Museum in London. The Antidote crew now have two packed parties every month in Shanghai, plus several other cities around China, and play exciting and innovative new music that rocks dance floors and opens hearts and minds.
We produce and play music that is very eclectic, but you might categorize it under electronic, electro, electroclash, electrofart, IDM, punk, indie, innovative, breakcore, techno, synth-pop, abstract hip hop, ambient, minimal, 8 bit chiptune, nu disco, old disco, your mama's disco, monstermadness, elephant skate funk, bhangra, ghetto, and everything else.
Adviruz is the artist psedonym of Istanbul’s Pinar Gurcan, whose growing passion for sound is translated through her music. Since an early age, she has been listening and mimicking opera singers, writing melodies, songs and poems in which she spoke her mind and reflected her soul. All of which are evident on "Nightly Sounds", an 8 track album which is the equivilent of having a glimpse into a diary, learning of love lost, gained, a snapshot of the human condition from which we can all draw experience... All of these things are developed musically into minimalistic glitch, noise, idm, experimental music and microsounds, its influences reminiscent of work by artists like Tujiko Noriko, Mira Calix, Plaid and Björk.
Adviruz and Section 27 present "Nightly Sounds", an intricately woven and rewarding musical tapestry. Available now for free download.
Yo The Antidoteasaurus. I just found out that we're related...and as a special family only present we've made a new song for you called "End of Days" (start doing backflips now). It's an epic instrumental opus to the moment when our ancient Dino relatives saw a large fiery object plummeting towards them. Please come to our page, give it a listen and let us know if it makes you feel like something catastrophic is gonna happen. If the song upsets you too much we will be holding several s support groups (read: comcerts) in the near future. Check our page for locations, dates and times.
