Young Empires

July 29, 2010 (9:00 pm - 3:00 am)

Young Empires – “GLORY of the NIGHT” from Young Empires on Vimeo.

Young Empires are a three piece from Toronto that formed in October 2009. They have already played alongside acts like Sleigh Bells and Wave Machines and own a sound that you may compare to the likes of Friendly Fires and Cut Copy. Flute fused disco punk with chant-like vocals and confident choruses, these could be the next big dance sensation. See why they are making a stir on discerning indie blogs at Start The Bus on the 29th of July.

Ruby Suns

Ruby Suns

Fight Softly is the second album for Sub Pop by New Zealand’s pop masters The Ruby Suns. Ryan McPhun (their prime mover) has the kind of voracious musical mind that cites as equal influences ‘80s New Jack Swing and modern Angolan kuduro, Fleetwood Mac and Britney Spears, Brazilian tropicalia and Argentinean cumbia. He’s the kind of diligent, meticulous soul that spends days hunched over a laptop in a tiny rented studio in Auckland, NZ just to perfect a sequenced drum track (mission accomplished). It’s good to Dance too!!!! Be sure to check them out here at Start The Bus on Friday 13th August.

July 24th – DJ Kentaro

DJ Kentaro from Tim Ferguson on Vimeo.

World famous DJ Kentaro comes to Start The Bus on July 24th.

After 9 years of bringing the finest music events to bristol and beyond, DOP are celebrating with a bargin priced party at our new home of Start the Bus with the most technically incredible dj on the planet.
“DJ Kentaro may be a turntablist – a world-beating turntablist, in fact, having taken the DMC World Championship title in 2002 – but that doesn’t mean that only spotty geezers in puffas and baseball caps need to look out for him. Because hip hop and scratching represent merely one side of Kentaro’s multi-faceted musical persona.” – IDJ Magazine (UK / EU) 10/2003

We Like To Party Presents: The Apples

July 23, 2010 (10:00 pm - 3:00 am)


The Apples – Live
Support To Be Confirmed
Hot off their latest Freestyle Records release- “The Power” E.P.- which includes a treatment of Snap’s 1993 classic smash, the suggestively titled “Upskirt” and their club-shattering version of “Killing in the name…”- the latter appearing on 12” vinyl for the first time. Over the past seven years the nine-strong instrumental group has been folding cuts and scratches from every imaginable source into Big Band blares and Middle Eastern elements on top of a raw and dirty funk base, baking a thick multi-layered sonic treat. Keeping true to their origins as a spontaneous composition ensemble, they kick ideas up and down the stage in a torrent of Decks, Horns, Double Bass, Drums and Electronic Effects.

Field Day

is on the horizon.

July 16, 2010 (10:00 pm - 3:00 am)

Rising beyond his role as the frontman of the wildly successful 1200 Techniques. The ARIA-winning 1200 Techniques sold over 50,000 albums and captivated audiences with their edgy, raw performances at every major music festival in the nation. Through it all, N’fa penned the charting singles “Hard As Hell”, “Where You At”, “Fork In The Road” and the monster hit “Karma”, which peaked at number four on Triple J’s Hottest 100. Now, with 1200 Techniques taking a well-deserved break, N’fa has channelled his unique talents into his debut solo album Cause An Effect. Evolving and adding to the proven success of his unique hip-hop formula, Cause An Effect takes the listener on a journey of light and shade as it presents hook-laden anthems alongside smooth, reclining rhythms. Support comes from London Buzz band The Saudies.

In Flagranti

IN FLAGRANTI – EXEXEX – CODEK from in flagranti on Vimeo.

Crack Magazine are chuffed to be joining forces with the quite excellent Club Cosmique for a full blown disco affair on Friday July 9th, headlined by In Flagranti, whose rash mix of dub, disco and italo-house is a rather tasty delight.
Check out the short video above for Ex Ex Ex, which was released on his label Codek earlier this year and came along with remixes from some mighty big names.

The Glitch Mob

July 3, 2010 (10:00 pm - 3:00 am)

Glitch Mob from Justin Nizer on Vimeo.

The Glitch Mob is a four man musical collaboration with roots from San Francisco and Los Angeles. What initially started as a joke soon stuck as edIT, Boreta, Kraddy and Ooah found themselves playing the same shows and eventually tag teaming. This eventually led to the four man sonic onslaught of ferocious bass, head cracking drums and infinitely complex rhythms. Taking influences from hip-hop, experimental, and dance genres, The Glitch Mob have crafted their own form of futuristic dance floor hip-hop that has been “slaying” audiences world wide. Their live sets reinvent the dj “tag-team” concept with four performers on stage at once, interacting like a jazz combo, each taking the lead at intuitive moments, interweaving their own sounds, and remixing everything on the fly.
