I’m cringing at my own naivety and arrogance – when I uploaded my remix album to jamendo.com a week ago, I did so with the thought that I can help raise the bar in terms of what’s available for free on the web. I had no idea exactly how high that bar has already been set by quality releases such as this one.

Virtuoso playing throughout and exceptional production values make this one of my favorite albums in a long time – free or otherwise. Nu-jazz / downtempo electronica done to perfection.

My favorite track: 11. Nebulous Notions.

Congratulations, Revolution Void, and MUCH respect! I’ll stop before I gush and embarrass myself further… ;^)

Saturday’s excursion sees Viba, performing his last set in Taipei for a while – Funked Trip Hop and electro-tinged house that has wowed audiences across the island is on the menu. With his debut album East/West Relations out on Bubble Bomb Records, Viba is certainly a rising star in the world of electronica and one to watch out for on the island

Though MoShang performs at least three times a week in the Second Life online world (his recent performance at the SecondFest in SL saw him billed with the likes of Pet Shop Boys and Groove Armada), his performances on the island have been rather scarce of late. Don’t miss the chance to see MoShang performing his Chinese Chill brand of downtempo electronica live. His 2006 release Chill Dynasty has been doing well in stores around the island.

KTK will be thrilling us with more experimental beats created from an array of electronic gadgetry. This duo has been performing regularly over the past few months and have been building a reputation for packing a punch and a few surprises.

*** UPDATE! ***

Regrettably, I’m stuck in Taichung due to a typhoon and won’t be able to appear at the show. The show, however, is still happening and all the Taipei artists will be performing. My sincere apologies – I was really looking forward to this one ;^(

I’ve updated the photos section with some pics from Saturday’s Paulstock performance in Dakeng, Taichung. Thanks for the pics, Savaia and happy birthday again, Paul! Had a great old time performing my set in front of a live and physically present audience after doing mostly online gigs for the last while. Looking forward to performing in RL a lot more in future and I’m especially looking forward to two performances with Viba in August.
