Haastattelussa kuullaan, liputtaako herra Tapparan vai Ilveksen puolesta, miten Fatboy Slim ja Rico Tubbs liittyvät yhteen vuonna 2012 ja mikä on miehen salaisuus pitää kaikki langat käsissään. Ricon XmiXissä soi tunti herran omaa trademark-bassomusiikkia dubstepistä elektrohouseen, wobblesoundeihin ja drum’n’bassiin.

DJ Orionin ensimmäisellä tunnilla jälleen käsittelyssä Suomi-uutuudet. Soitossa mm. Tom Fall, Heikki L, Something Good, Jay Lamar ja Jesse Oliver sekä ulkomaalaisista Moguai, Gareth Emery, Netsky, Knife Party ja Daniel Kandi.

Tracklist: Clinic @ Venue, 14.1.2012 w/ Kyau&Albert and Dennis Sheperd

By UncategorizedNo Comments

Warming up Dennis Sheperd & Kyau&Albert and playing for the first at Venue, Helsinki was a bliss. The soundsystem is amazing. Check the tracklist below.
(The pic above is not from this actual event.)

Playing at Playground After Hours was brilliant, too. Unfortunately no tracklist of those early morning hours 04:00-07:00, but one particularly memorable tune was Tigerskin’s Push The Patton around 06:00. It’s 2007 tune but still works like a charm. Check the video below the tracklist.

Album preview 10/11 – Orion & J.Shore – The Night After (Brotherhood album OUT NOW) by Orion & J.Shore

ALBUM PREVIEW 10/11

Orion & J.Shore – The Night After

J.Shore: The Night After is my favorite track from the album. The whole creation process was a small, lucky accident. In February 2011 I was listening to Tsuumi’s “Growing Up” album (on Spotify) and I’m sure something got stuck to our piano themes as well. Lauri Kallio brought the track to the next level with his amazing guitar skills and live strings gave the finishing touch. I wish making new tracks would always be this easy.

Orion: The main inspiration for me was the eerie feeling of Gustavo Santaolalla’s amazing track Iguazu (on Youtube). The Silk label guys said The Night After reminds them of Game of Thrones series but I can’t get this wild west feeling out of my head when I listen to this. Even though most of the tracks on “Brotherhood” album include live strings and pianos, this is the only one which was combined of live instruments only. No plug-ins, synths or similar here, only digitally produced parts are a couple of effects.

Album preview 9/11 – Orion & J.Shore – Brotherhood (Brotherhood album OUT NOW) by Orion & J.Shore

ALBUM PREVIEW 9/11

Orion & J.Shore – Brotherhood

J.Shore: After a surprising success of our debut single “One Sunday” back in 2009, we started making a followup, which turned to be quite a challenging task. I guess the soundtrack style vibe in our tracks originates from this one. One Sunday was pretty minimal, but this brought us to a more orchestral direction – where we’ve been ever since.

Orion: Brotherhood was our second single and gave its name for this album, too. We got the idea for the lonely one-note piano line in the beginning from Global Communication’s classic “14:31” (Listen here ). Ayleon, Flight & Jontey, Taucher and Anton Sonin delivered brilliant remixes for the original release and the slightly altered album edit includes live cellos.

Album preview 8/11 – Ralphie B – Massive (Orion & J.Shore remix) (Brotherhood album OUT NOW) by Orion & J.Shore

ALBUM PREVIEW 8/11

Ralphie B – Massive (Orion & J.Shore remix)

J.Shore: When Juska suggested to make a remix of Massive, I didn’t believe it could be possible. However, the original had several different themes in it and turning the original into a chill-out version was surprisingly easy in the end. Woodwinds and vocals gave the remix an unique touch and using rather massive drums was an inspiration later when we were making beats for “Departed”.

Orion: Massive remix was our third or fourth track we made together and the first try to bring something trancey (and nearly 140bpm) to the world of chill-out. The original version from 2004 is still one of my all-time favourite trance tracks and getting good words from Ralphie B after finishing this remix as a bootleg was super nice – let alone that Ralphie and his label finally also gave a permission for the official release. This is also the very first track in which we used arpeggiators to simulate the feeling of the original track – you can spot nearly the same arps in “Sun” remix, too.

Album preview 7/11 – Slusnik Luna – Sun (Orion & J.Shore remix) (Brotherhood album OUT NOW) by Orion & J.Shore

ALBUM PREVIEW 7/11

Slusnik Luna – Sun (Orion & J.Shore remix)

J.Shore: The original chords were already so massive that we decided not to reinvent the wheel but just to make a loooong buildup for the existing theme. When recording live strings for the track, some electric guitars parts were also recorded (hello kitschy 1980’s!). They didn’t end up to the final version, but I wonder what Slusnik boys would have said about them… Listen to the clip of Sun (electric guitar edit).

Orion: We were super excited to make a remix of “Sun” and slightly disappointed when it then finally seemed that it would not end up to the official Anjunabeats release. I kept telling myself it’s no wonder – why would a trance label a release a 10 minute chill-out remix next to banging club versions of the track. Not Anjuna style at all. Therefore it was a big surprise when Allan from Anjunabeats mailed me after two weeks and asked to finish the remix asap. We got the live strings recorded über quick and thanks to very flexible and friendly attitude from both Niko from Slusnik Luna and Allan from Anjunathe track was finally added to our album, too.

Album preview 6/11 – Orion & J.Shore – White Birds (Brotherhood album OUT NOW) by Orion & J.Shore

ALBUM PREVIEW 6/11

Orion & J.Shore – White Birds

J.Shore: Departed is one of those “epic tracks in E minor” on the album in addition to Brotherhood and White Birds. The drums and arrangement break apart the otherwise a bit too obvious soundtrackish soundscape. Before we started making this, we got some inspiration from the almighty (and slightly corny;) Braveheart soundtrack. Or how about this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HcxfrL4UjQ4

Orion: Yes, I remember we listened to the Braveheart soundtrack and while making the arrangement I can recall having an image in my head of super slow-motion William Wallace running over the field. How corny is that?! Live recorded strings work really well here (thanks to our amazing players) and the title was inspired by a classic movie quote: “Heaven holds the faithful departed”. Remember the film?

Orion & J.Shore – Nails (Album Preview 4/11)

Album preview 4/11 – Orion & J.Shore – Nails (Brotherhood album OUT NOW) by Orion & J.Shore

ALBUM PREVIEW 4/11

Orion & J.Shore – Nails

J.Shore: For me it’s always been hard to understand the monotonic feel of electronic music – and especially hard to compose anything like it. Maybe my own taste of music has developed during this album making process because now Nails is definitely among my favorite tracks of the album. That kid laughing reminds me of the face of Richard D. James.

Orion: The voice says: “deru kugi wa utareru” which means “The nail that sticks up will be hammered down”. The first version sounded a bit lame, but after adding some japanese throat singing as a layer to the bottom we started to reach the ethnic touch we were hoping in the first place. But hey, doesn’t any proper chill-out track need an old throat-singer, kids laughing and some Japanese guy chanting weird stuff?
