TECHNOSEGA ACT 3 + AMBER MUSE SESSIONS

YO!
This Friday, October 2. Ritmika! presents Technosega (or Citycover) Act 3.
Special guests - Ghetto B-Boyz from Finland.

Details:
:: ears
ghetto b-boyz (SUPERSUPERSUPER / FI)
rimi (R!)
gesta (R!)

:: eyes
mlada (FFF)
zee (R!)

This time Citycover brings you a present from the north going by the name of Ghetto B-Boyz who’ll be doing a live performance blending rough acid, oldskool house and phat electro beats. The usual ritmikians Gesta and Rimi will fill in the rest by spinning a variety of true techno music so you can jack your ass on and off as desired. The visual side will be provided by the dynamic duo of zee and Mlada who will be showing off some new material as well so it’s all fresh. Quality dancefloor experience guaranteed, don’t miss!

Our main hero is Johan from Turku, Finland however in the beginning Ghetto B-Botz were the boyz indeed — two of them having a noble intention to produce hip-hop. Weirdly enough their output turned out to be nothing like hip-hop but apparently a classic acid house instead. Following a strong debut was a longer break whereafter only Johan found his way back to the band pushing the sound towards harsher and noiser aesthetics Ghetto B-Boyz are now known for. At the same time he continued expanding musically by adapting several alter egos like Casio Yamaha and Superjohan for his house and electro explorations. Whatever the style Johan’s music is raw and groovy consisting of few basic elements put together in a second to none effectiveness. simple and tight, you can’t help but submit to the beat!

FOXY MANDY

Well, this is making enough buzz, and deserves a post.

It happened a few weeks ago. Girls, who just finished their DJ course at Ritma Institus came to S:G to celebrate. It was a Saturday night. DJ Moro was plating. At one moment he wanted to take a rest a bit, so he asked Didzis, if he can take care of decks for a while. Didzis knew Madara (Foxy’s real name) and forward this duty to her. And then she started to play, not even with her CDs. And that was a turning point: suddenly the girl was playing the right stuff, at the right place to the right audience… and everybody loved it. And she is turning 18 in few weeks. We all were waiting for fresh emotions on this scene, and surprisingly they came from Dobeles pagasts.
Now Mandy says, last Saturday’s set changed her life and opened the eyes for new perspectives. Ah, thanks! This is one of the best things we can do.
Cimo and Oga did great job too!  But this post is about Mandy. Rock!

Friday: Oleg Bombey and Tim the Suspect, who you should know already. Video by Linards Kulless!
