Read: Daniel Maloso talks about GTA V Posted: 20 Sep 2013 12:38 PM PDT Office productivity has gone down somewhat since the release of Grand Theft Auto V this week, 'cos there's nothing better than cruising through San Andreas with Soulwax FM blasting out of the virtual car speakers. As we already mentioned here, Matias Aguayo's "El Sucu Tucu" (from his "The Visitor" full-length) and Daniel Maloso's "Body Music" (from the "In And Out" album) are featured on the game's soundtrack, which is quite a big thing for us... and it's getting bigger, as GTA V sales just hit 1 Billion Dollars in three days. But there's so much more to the game than cabbage: for many, the franchise holds a very special place in their hearts, as Daniel Maloso can confirm:

Köln: Matias Aguayo x Mostro 2nd Show Added - Thursday, August 15! Posted: 13 Aug 2013 05:37 AM PDT Aufgrund von schlechtem Wetter muss das Dach des Ludwig Museums geschlossen werde. Die Veranstaltung wird in den Kinosaal verlegt. Dank der großen Ticketnachfrage wird es zusätzlich zu dem Konzert heute Abend eine weitere Show am Donnerstag, den 15. August, geben. Wer bereits ein Ticket hat, kann sich aussuchen, an welchem Tag er das Konzert besuchen möchte. Das Ticket ist für eine Show gültig. Wir empfehlen allerdings die Donnerstagsshow, da der Konzertsaal heute Abend bereits an seine Grenzen stößt. Wer noch kein Ticket hat, hat jetzt die Chance noch eins zu bekommen, um diese rare und umwerfende Performance zu sehen.

Watch: Gui Boratto at Freeze Liverpool Posted: 16 Jul 2013 07:01 AM PDT It's not an official video or anything, but still a nice reminder of how awesome last weekend's Kompakt stint at Liverpool's bombed out church was. Gui Boratto can be heard here while ripping through the crowd with one of his epic sets... it's really a sight to behold. More pics can be found at Freeze Liverpool's Facebook page!

Matias Aguayo: The Visitor – review

(Cómeme)

He is 40 now, but Chilean-born, German-raised guerrilla rave instigator Matias Aguayo is a classic nomad. At home everywhere and nowhere, the techno producer's third album under his own name is The Visitor, a post-digital block party full of computer music whose Latinate rhythms and rolled Rs don't conform to grid or template. Half-sung, half-rapped in Spanish and English, Una Fiesta Diferente illustrates how Aguayo's dancefloor nous can effortlessly give rise to a pop tune. It's bettered by the irrepressibly bobbling El Sucu Tucu, whose nonsense vocals ("Brrak!") just add to the seductive, no-borders feel.

Matias Aguayo, The Visitor Posted: 25 Jun 2013 06:00 AM PDT Thoroughly steeped in invigorating, choppy rhythms and chants As half of Closer Musik and on his own, dance producer Matais Aguayo was always an odd duck of Kompakt Records — a label that’s hatched a few. Aguayo is Chilean, and South American rhythms and percussion have made their way increasingly into his recordings; in 2009 he founded the label Cómeme to explore the intersection of analog gear and Latin grooves. It’s not surprising that Aguayo’s decision to issue The Visitor on Cómeme (which Kompakt distributes) means that it’s his most thoroughly steeped in invigorating, choppy rhythms and chants, as well as his archetypal Berlin-bred minimalist psychedelia. “El Sucu Tucu” even nods to the queen of Latin crossover herself, Gloria Estefan, briefly quoting Miami Sound Machine’s “Conga” in the midst of a hard-popping samba groove. The album is stuffed with percussion, as was 2009′s Ay Ay Ay, but this album is less abstruse, friendlier and fully assured. From "The Visitor", the new album from Matias Aguayo. Available June 24 on Cómeme.
