The legendary Circoloco party of DC10, Ibiza is coming to Miami this WMC for a day of pure pandemonium. Prepare for an incredible lineup of talents: Lee Burridge, Tiefschwarz, Damian Lazarus, David Squillace, DJ Sneak and Timo Maas, to name just a few. The party will be at the Eden Rock Hotel on Miami Beach, sporting a state of the art Dynacord sound system, which will surely live up that of the original DC10. You can purchase tickets now at Wantickets.com, and cross your fingers in hopes the party won’t get shut down this year! Full line up follows the post.

Blkmarket Membership is taking a break from their secret location parties to promote their Rebel Rave Tour 2010. Unlike their warehouse parties, this event will take place at Pacha NYC and will feature Gradient favorite Damian Lazarus, Jamie Jones, Seth Troxler and Deniz Kurtel along with BlkMarket Membership’s own Taimur + Fahad. The first 250 people to e-mail rebelravenyc@gmail.com will receive a special discounted price of $20.

Damian Lazarus‘ Memory Box (club remix) elicits a slight chuckle with its pitched down, machine vocals depicting an artificial gentleman’s malfunctioning memory. As filtered speak-and-spell sounds bleep percussively, our ailing robot complains via a limerick like pair of rhyming couplets. Crisp snares and hats counterpoint his tale of names not remembered and conversations ruined by faulty memory against a backdrop of subdued rhythms.

The B side, Spinning (Sasha remix), is a funky collection of interlocking loops kept in motion by a drive train of snappy beats and rolling, analogue bass. The word “spinning” is repeated periodically while snippets of the sample are looped. Ethereal vocals eventually enter, haphazardly sliced into thin, echoing sheets and messily layered into pretty, pitch-varied piles. The beats and bass fall out as the track slows while reaching its midway point. A variety of bells report until an alarm like, guitarish lead reverberates, signaling that the track’s throttle is being pushed forward again. The ringing continues as the rhythms crescendo back, accompanied by squelchy synths.

Last week, Blkmarket Membership teamed up with Cielo night club for a very special night with Crosstown Rebels’ own, Damian Lazarus. Lazarus never falls short when it comes to impressing the crowd. The venue was packed with techno patrons engulfed by the bass soaking through their eardrums. Lazarus played a Gradient favorite, a remix of Hugo’s The Sloop. Playing a wide range of sounds, from Tech House to Minimal, Lazarus was absolutely on point! Adding to this special night were Blkmarket residents Taimur & Fahad, who are hands down the best DJs in NYC right now. Check out the rest of the post for pictures from the event.

Firecracker was held July 3rd,2009 at Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC, it was a nonstop minimal dance party for twelve hours straight to ring in Independence Day. Slated to spin were Victor Calderone, Steve Lawler, Hercules and Love Affair, Damian Lazarus, Audiofly and Tiefschwarz, but unfortunately Damian Lazarus was ill and didn’t make it. On the bright side, it did allow for an amazing two hour set by Tiefschwarz, who got the crowd really moving by 1:30 am and kept it going strong.
