| Info: | Mercury Lounge July 2 Rainer Trüby (Compost Records, Germany) In a musical climate where experimentation and digital manipulation is so prevalent, it has become increasingly difficult to categorize music. The fusion of different genres and modern production techniques have pushed open the definition of Dance Music. In an effort to delineate what’s between the lines, Nujazz chronicles and Mercury Lounge are proud to present a series welcoming back old friends. To remind us that dance music need not be ear-splitting and in your face, but rather, uplifting and inspiring. JAZZHOOLIGANS Act I Rainer Trüby - a former member of A Forest Mighty Black, Rainer now makes the sun shine with his widely hyped Trüby Trio, a joint project with Christian Prommer and Roland Appel of Fauna Flash. Wild horses couldn’t drive ‘A-Go-Go/Carajillo’ (12-inch) and ‘Prima Vera’ (track on ‘Glücklich III’) out of the better charts. The original organic blend of Brazilian rhythms and modern beats also characterizes their remixes for Peace Orchestra, Mr. Gone, Yasushi Ide, Nitin Sawhney, Bobby Matos and Frederic Galliano to name but a few. An accomplished DJ, Rainer Trüby digs so deep into music, that he has received much respect from UK-DJs, club-runners and promoters. Booked regularly all over England (Blue Note, Bar Rumba, Brighton Jazz Bop, Phönix Festival, Jazz Cafe) and the rest of the world, he is one of the most traveled personages in music. When he is not touring the world you can find him and maybe one of his stellar guest DJs like; Gilles Peterson, the Into Somethin' Crew, Fauna Flash, Kruder & Dorfmeister, DJ Die, Ben Wilcox, Patrick Forge, Russ Dewbury, 4 Hero or Simon Lee (Faze Action) at the turntables in his own club Root Down in Freiburg. He is a true "Jazz Hooligan", with an uncanny ability to perceive a feeling and to wander on this essential musical path. - crossing the boundaries between retro and future jazz, funky beats, jazzy house, Brazilian, boogie tunes and drum & bass. He is one of the most important educators on the scene. His seemingly endless knowledge of music history combined with his vinyl addiction has made him an unbelievable source of inspiration and information for us and many others. If you still haven’t got a clue about what to expect from Trüby’s turntable-tactics, then listen to one of his top-class compilations: ‘Glücklich I, II & III or IV’ (Compost), ‘Nitrogen - Trip Hop Sources from the Past’ (Compost), ‘Root Down 99’ (Nuphonic) or ‘Talkin’ Jazz III’ (Talkin Loud). Just prepare yourself for a sublimely mixed set combining elements of retro and future jazz, Brazil, house, boogie and drum & bass. Trüby or not to be? That question answered Friday July 2nd at the Mercury Lounge. Tickets: $20.00 in advance and $25.00 at the door. Doors open at 8pm with Lance Baptiste and into the wee hours (with a ticket) PM me for details friday july 2, 2004 doors at 8pm |
