Epcot :: Frite Nite Records Podcast
Download the Podcast here.
Consider the boy your personal trainer. Epcot just slipped this workout tape under the door after ringing the bell for about 15 minutes. His regimen this month equates to a cyberhythmic treadmill burning out its motor with top selections. Recent champions, modern classics, and new gems all share space here with a mature and fluid pace. We make a dumb face when Epcot controls the Allen & Heath, now we can do it in the privacy of our own slums.
If you’re in SF, get up with Epcot next week as he changes direction once again to spit live grime (while he DJs) at Mighty on October 22nd with Comma, Ana Sia, and Kraddy. And if you nap through that one, he’ll be doing a rare performance of his master vocal opera Heroes (live) at Bottom of the Hill on Nov. 11 with Mike Boo on the plates. Like Ep says, “My team is strong.”

TOKiMONSTA 'Breaking Through' Resident Advisor Interview
Los Angeles-based producer doesn't understand the fuss about her city. As RA's Christine Kakaire finds, though, it was the perfect incubator for her psychedelic hip-hop.

2-Day Pass for SXNO
Offbeat Magazine Guest Mix:: SXNO mixed by Carmine P. Filthy
Every year, hundreds of musicians from around the world converge on Austin, Texas for the annual South by Southwest Music Conference. Many of these acts stop in New Orleans before or after the conference/festival to pick up an extra gig, and with events such as the Foburg Festival bringing more indie rockers to New Orleans around SXSW, it was time for the electronic musicians to get their shine in NOLA.
Enter SXNO, a new festival created to give shine to electronic and dance artists in New Orleans, a city that has always loved nothing more than to dance. SXNO is the brainchild of three of New Orleans’ electronic music concert promoters: SimplePlay Presents, The Social Service, and Carmine P. Filthy. Over the course of two nights at the Howlin Wolf—next Saturday and Sunday, March 19 and 20—New Orleans will get a taste of Frite Nite Records’ Salva, B. Bravo and Epcot (Saturday night), as well as experimental electro/dubstep performers Daedelus, TOKiMONSTA, and Shlohmo (Sunday night).
Tickets are available for only $20 as a 2-day pass, good for both nights. Saturday and Sunday, March 19 and 20, Howlin Wolf.
To give readers a chance to sample the music at this new electronic music festival, SXNO founder and DJ Carmine P. Filthy—who played the Le Plur dance tent at last year’s Voodoo Experience—put together this OffBeat Guest Mix to highlight tracks from the SXNO performers. Stream it here or download below.

Frite Nite Records Showcase:
Salva (Frite Nite, SF)
“For a good while now, the main man behind San Francisco’s Frite Nite label, Paul Salva, has stood firmly behind his label, making sure its delivery of futuristic, eclectic electronic music ran smoothly as it remained tasteful and interesting. But the label head makes music too, under the name Salva, and next year will see the release of his own full-length album, Complex Housing. …Salva’s new tune is a pristine slice of squelching, synth-driven funk, albeit ‘funk’ that sounds like it comes from a whole other time and place. Its impressively infectious melodies are rivaled only by the smashing beats that surround them. The soundscape is fully realized with the addition of warm, warbling ambiance in the background. Sure, you can dance a bit to Salva’s “Blue,” but you can also just sit and listen to the rich production through headphones.” -Patrick Fallon/SF Weekly
B. Bravo (Frite Nite, SF)
B. Bravo (Adam Mori), a West Coast California native, brings his own sound of synthesizer funk to any track he lays hands on, whether in the studio, behind the turntables in the club, or performing his music live on stage. As an original member of the Frite Nite crew based in San Francisco, he is also a driving force in the Modern Funk Movement, spearheaded by LA’s Dam-Funk. Bravo’s DJ sets include melody-infused Dubstep, UK Funky, and original Future Funk bangers, all loaded with full helpings of bass. His live set (showcasing original material played live with samplers, synths, keyboards and vocoder) was unleashed this year to the masses and has received rave reviews from crowds and music lovers alike.
Epcot (Frite Nite, SF)
Hailing from San Francisco as a writer/MC/DJ, Epcot has been releasing and touring music on an international stage for the last 10 years. As an MC, he has worked with everyone from Tipper, Si Begg and The Glitch Mob, to Salva, Eprom, NastyNasty, Mimosa and Lorn, just to name a few. His tunes have been championed around the globe by radio and club DJ’s alike, including Rob Da Bank, Annie Mac, Mary Anne Hobbs, Giles Peterson and Annie Nightingale. With multiple international tours under his belt, as well as appearances at Bestival and Fabric, many mics have been torched across the globe. As a DJ, Ep has a reputation for playing all sub-genres of progressive bass music with the skill of a turntablist wiz.
Sunday, March 20::
TOKiMONSTA (Brainfeeder)
Born and raised in the South Bay area of Los Angeles, TOKiMONSTA (Jennifer Lee) was an unfocused pupil of classical piano. However, she has come to use this background to create vast textural soundscapes by utilizing live instruments, percussion, digital manipulation, and dusty vinyl. Through the creation of beats, she is able to fuse vintage sounds with progressive styles into something unique.
Shlohmo (Friends of Friends, Wedidit)
LA native Henry Laufer may be a young fella, but the 19-year-old producer, better known as Shlohmo, has rocketed on to our radar screen in recent months with his lo-fi, psychedelic mix of abstract hip-hop, dubstep-flavored wonk, bouncy synth-funk, breezy trip-hop, and what sounds like lost gems from the mid-’90s Mo’ Wax catalog. Now splitting time between San Francisco and LA, in January Shlohmo will be releasing theShlohmoshun Deluxe mini-album.
Daedelus (Ninja Tune, Brainfeeder)
LA’s most daring new artists wears a buzzing halo. This young musical romantic weaves together a true “love-sound” that falls between honeyed melody and avant-electronics. Daedelus chops and splices disparate acoustic sources into incredible works of staggering resonance. His production style is very unique; it has a precise impact that will make you wonder if you?re dreaming or dancing.
