Re:CALL TO MIND
FRIDAY 8TH OCTOBER 2010 RICH MIX, BETHNAL GREEN, LONDON
When Commix made the original “Call to Mind”, one of their aims with the project was to reference the various styles that had influenced them. "Be True" was a nod to the heavily chopped up and looped samples that J-Dilla had made into a style of his own, "Bellevue" was an attempt at trying to create a minimal techno aesthetic within a drum & bass timeframe, and "Change" was their attempt at doing a modernised take on the Bristol sound of the late 90's.
When the idea for doing a remix project came about it was important to them that it continue this theme, but also that they bring in musicians that have recently flourished and brought something different to their particular genre.
In keeping with the album the launch party features a line up that is unlikely to be seen in one place again. From the pioneering techno productions of Berghain resident Marcel Dettman to the mood evoking sounds of Instra:mental and of course Commix themselves; this launch party is a platform to present the “Re:Call To Mind” album in the club environment. Additional “Re:Call To Mind” collaborators Pangaea and Pedestrian complete the main room line up. East London record label and party Electric Minds host room 2, with Commix providing a remix for new label signing Duffstep, he joins label founder Dolan Bergin with support coming from Minkioni.
The party takes place in loft spaces 1 & 2 of London's up-and-coming cross-arts centre, Rich Mix. A huge Funktion One sound system and full production will be installed in both rooms, which are fully sound proofed and noise restriction free. The Rich Mix is just 1 min walk from the new Shoreditch over ground train line, which is easily accessible from both North and South London. Old Street tube is also just a few minutes walk away.
