DJ Rupture, I presume.

So, no show last week due to technical complications. I thought the connection between the computer and the board wasn't working right, but the tech guy said it was when he checked it, so maybe it was just personal complications. This has been a very frustrating month at Confounded Racket.

Meanwhile, I just read an interesting interview on Pitchfork. It is just one of those "what are you listening to? etc" kind of interviews with a musician or artist, which can always be a little fun, but in this case, as, I would have expected, it being DJ Rupture; I found out about places, things, and trends I would probably never heard of otherwise.

Blog Split Personal Site link

This blog will now be exclusively for the radio show.

My old posts from my personal site are over here now and there will probably be new material on there since my average time spent at the keyboard is doubling this year already.

Soot Records / DJ Rupture / Border Crashing

So, first I discover El Hijo De La Cumbia. Then Soot Records which is releasing his album Ritmos De Freestyle. Then DJ Rupture who runs Soot Records and the blog Mudd UP. Soot Records tagline is "A Strike Against Geography." Then I read the description of DJ Rupture below. I am happy and frustrated all at once. He is doing exactly the thing I dreamed of doing. Well, at least I have a pipeline now and an example to aspire to.

What’s Rupture sound like? A border-crossing bass visionary. His dynamic live sets simultaneously partyrock and suggest complex political undertones. Download his highly-influential Gold Teeth Thief mix from 2001. A four-star review in VIBE Magazine praised it as a “stunning, globe-trotting, three-turntable mix” that “captures the spirit of the best bootleg mixes–bumping, brash, and without borders.” A recent New York Times review called Rupture “a thoughtful pipeline for music from countless distant and obscure outposts.”

Rupture also runs Soot Records, an independent label with impeccable curation, dedicated to international urban music. Rupture plays in a band called Nettle — violin, cello, electronics, banjo, guembri, voice. Rupture does duo performances with guitarist Andy Moor (The Ex). Both projects will release albums in 2008. Matt Shadetek & Rupture joined forces in 2008 to create Dutty Artz. DA is a tropical multimedia storm.
