Egal ob die Temperatur draußen hier zu Lande immer weiter steigt oder fällt, bietet die Elektroküche wie immer am Wochenende ein heißes Programm! Es heißt wieder mal “Technotized“ in den heiligen Hallen des elektronischen Underground Club’s in Köln! Am 18.07. sind 2 Jungs aus dem Westwald zu Gast: Mika und Chief! Die beiden Veranstalten schon seit Jahren im Betzdorfer Club Help und anderen Locations der Region ihre Hyaene-Parties und überzeugen immer mit einer sehr angenehmen Mischung von Minimal House bis Techno, perfekt gemixt und vorgetragen! Aus dem Grund können sie eine große Fangemeinde ihr Eigen nennen und wir dürfen gespannt sein was die beiden für uns aus ihren Plattenkisten und Laptop’s zaubern werden. Außerdem werden die beiden E-Küche-Residents Dompe & Jagger ihr neues Projekt, COTEK vorstellen. COTEK ist das neue Produzenten-Projekt der rheinTime Records Crew (Jagger, Chisee & Dompe)! Die beiden werden an diesem Tag mit 2 Mixern und 4 Plattenspielern die Nadel und die Luft brennen lassen. Bequemes Schuhwerk wird empfohlen!!!
MUM010 Tempered DJ's & Ellesse - Rocket Science Category: Music
Tempered DJ's are back in full force following on from the powerful 'Escape' (Tempered DJ's & Tiny) which has performed very well with a couple of compilation licenses to boot. This time around Tempered team up with Ellesse - well respected on the circuit as being the man behind the fantastic Kaluki nights now at AREA 51 in Manchester. The production on 'Rocket Science' is top notch as ever and the exceptional Mark Holmes & OD Muzique remix drops like a bomb and should keep the growing army of MUM followers satisfied.
*** We are pleased to announce the launch party of this release will be held at Area 51 in association with Kaluki on the 11 July 2009 - full details of this will follow soon! ***
