FOR MORE INFO PLEASE MAIL arveene@hotmail.com peace arv T.Raumschmiere fired up the club back in December of 2003 with an incendiary live performance that had the Metropolitan rocking out like CBGB's. Now, he makes a return for a block-rocking party to DJ for us on the eve of St.Patrick's Day - always pushing the harder punk-edged DIY sounds of techno & electro this is sure to have the club heaving like an elephant in labour.T.Raumschmiere is the owner of cult Berlin label s**tkatapult, which celebrated it's 50th release this year. With his full- on 'stay-anti' motto confirming his punk based refusenik stance he is a one man 'electro-punk' movement. His DJ sets are renowned throughout Europe and especially in Berlin at the famous WMF parties - after his live performance last time, we thought it only right to get him back to spin the records right round. Since 1997 T. Raumschmiere (the moniker is lifted from the William S.Burroughs short story, 'The Dreamcops', 'Die Traumschmiere' in his native German) has released music on a variety of labels, though predominantly on his own - the wonderfully named s**tkatapult, based in Berlin, but also for Cologne's Kompakt, and Hefty Records (Chicago). Though this period he has worked with people such as Le Tigre, Dave Gahan, Goldfrapp and Miss Kittin all the while playing drums in his band Mos Eisley Def. Variously described as "digi-punk rock", "crack-house music for cable TV kids.", and full of "rock hard metal riffage" his music is a diverse combination of punk, electro, hip-hop, rock and electronic atmospherics. Releases have appeared on labels such as Kompakt, Sender, BPitch Control, WMF, Salo and Mute. His most recent album 'Radio Blackout' on Novamute featured the massive tracks 'Monstertruckdriver' and 'Rabaukendisco' have been picked up and heavily played by Sven Vath, DJ Hell, The Hacker and Ellen Allien. This appearance will be an unforgettable experience with a bucket full of rock-star magnetism ready to rock the dancefloor. Support on the night comes from one of Ireland's leading techno producers, Americhord. A regular at Electric City she has previously played alongside the likes of Stewart Walker, Vitalic & Ellen Allien. Following a year with two killer releases out - the 'Enter' EP on D1 and the Midnight 12" on Diaspora. - we are looking forward to hearing her play showcase these and other new tracks - be sure to get down to check out what could very well be, once again, a show-stealing performance from Americhord. Kicking things off will be one half of the Electricity Brothers, Simon Conway with a selection of chemically enhanced electro and techno to warm up the club. While upstairs in the Bar the glamour boys from Nylon will be calling the shots with their unique brand of electro punk funk.
