Zombie Disco Squad begyndte livet i 2006 efter at have været primus modus omkring Londons centrale steder såsom Social-og Catch. De er kendte for deres regelmæssige mixtapes og en masse ”internet remix hits” heriblandt flere danske numre fra blandt andet Fagget Fairies.

To think it has been over 8 years since he dropped the unsuspecting masterpiece "Beautiful Day" on our doorsteps makes us as giddy as the realization that we have watched his son grow up having graced the cover of nearly all 13 releases for the label. KAITO remains one of Japan's biggest dance producers and undeniably one of the most respected artists from Asia remaining a top 3 best selling artist in Japan, USA and Greece for KOMPAKT. The silhouette of his son on the cover of "TRUST" signifies a change of pace for KAITO…dare we say WATANABE has created one of his most matured and meditative releases to date. Fear not, the euphoria remains - KAITO continues to flow through his melodies with a remarkable ease and grace that is rarely heard by producers of today. Throughout "TRUST", KAITO seems to want to draw the listener into an aura of introspectiveness - an elative earnestness that signifies true growth and a change of pace for this talent that is sure to be welcomed by many considering these serious times and certain to draw new fans to his already full table. Another classic moment for KOMPAKT from one of our most endearing producers. www.myspace.com/hiroshiwatanabemusic

To celebrate our new location and the brand new possiblities it represent to us, we have decided to start out with a very big bang on two separate floors, both of them representing the fnest there is to be found within their particular genres: // The main stage will be governed by a very special bunch of people consisting of four long time friends who's mutual love and understanding for Club Music in all it's many forms dates back more than 15 years.The impact and influence these guys has had on the development of Copenhagen Club Culture is not to be ignored: They have all in their own special way contributed in creating the flourishng and vivid culture we today are fortunate enough to enjoy here in Copenhagen. These boys has been amongst the leading tastemakers on the Copenhagen Club Circuit for close to twenty years and tonight they are going to show you where they all started out, each of them doing a super exclusive SELECTOR SUPERIOR set within their own favorite genre, presenting a selection of their most treasured sounds and rare classics: // RUNE RK is without a doubt one of the most prolific and skillfull Dj's ever to come out of Copenhagen, always tearing up the crowd with his energetic style and postive attitude. The eminent skills RUNE RK so easily flaunts today were crafted out through years of hard work, beatmixing, scratching and cutting up records playing his original trademark sound: Chicago House and Detroit Techno. It's a fast, furious and seriously bumpy ride and all we can say is: You really haven't heard RUNE RK play until you've heard him play those juicy jackin' grooves! // Being one of the leading forces behind the OHOI Crew TIM DRIVER is probably best known for both creating mega events such as RAW and pioneering Dupstep to the Copenhagen audience. But before there even was such a thing called wobble, TIM DRIVER was renowned for being the best at mastering the deep infectious sound of the challenging Dj style called Wild Pitch: A particular Dj style who involves the Dj being "in the mix" all through the set, constantly working the knobs, faders and records to create a grinding groove that rips its way through the night like a freight train on the loose. Get ready for the blaring Air Sirens, dark synth stabs and pounding beats closely connected to this epic sound! // Apart from being co founder and owner of the notorious club board called Hifly.dk KLAUS B is without a doubt one the most eloquent collectors and connaiseurs of vinyl in Denmark. KLAUS B started collecting records back in '87 when he was a just a small juvenile delinquent who ran off to all the secret raves he could find in both Copenhagen an Germany. Today his collection boasts more than 12.000 vinyl records, sporting nothing but the absolutely best there is to be found in techno and house from the past thirty years. Tonght KLAUS B will be digging deep in the crates to find all his favorite RAVE and ACID HOUSE classics from back when he was a regular guest at the infamous MAYDAY events in Germany: It's going to be bigroom, banging and true techno in the mainroom tonight!! // KJELD TOLSTRUP has been breaking new sounds and championing all sorts of different musical styles since the early 80'ies, lately through his nationwide Radioshow UNGA BUNGA. He is always searching for that special new sound, that unknown producer or that intruigingly weird band who will take the scene just a little step further. So who could possibly be better at hosting our brand new Ecclectic INSTERSTELLAR CELLAR SESSIONS in the basement at SELECTOR SUPERIOR? He has seen it all, he has done it all and tonight he will also play it all at SELECTOR SUPERIOR, sharing his incredibly vast knowledge about music with you, the crowd. His Eminence KJELD TOLSTRUP will show no boundaries whatsoever, playing everything he loves and everything you thought you hated in a TRULY eccelectic mix of music, dating as far back as anyone can remember and reaching even further into the future that anyone dare to think of. Tonight his most famous protegé - The Queen of Darkness DJUNA BARNES - will join him for a late nght session into the abyss of indie, electronica and all sort's of dizconoid darkness, it will be a night to remember and never to forget!

As a kid his days and nights were filled with music, either liberated from his parents’ collection, absorbed via his bedside radio or tentatively played on the household’s piano. He first heard DJs at youth disco’s and was smitten, immediately beginning his own record collection - Italian disco, the Pet Shop Boys, extended 12” mixes of pop tracks and classic funk are its foundations. At the age of 20 Michael moved to Cologne, the warmest part of Germany in both temperature and attitude. With the help of Wolfgang and Reinhardt Voigt - already-cherished Cologne artists - he forged a characteristically grounded career, equally mundane and insane. Michael’s time is split between producing tracks (his debut album is forthcoming), DJing globally (he tours Japan and the US in late 2003) and overseeing the distribution of many of Europe’s underground labels. He works at Kompakt, a deceptively named business incorporating a vibrant release schedule, recording studios, distribution centres and a gigantic record store, all in the heart of Cologne. Every Friday Michael eats with best pals and fellow Kompakt artists Tobias Thomas and Aksel Superpitcher, before partying at Total Confusion, their Studio 672 clubnight. “For me it’s the perfect balance. If I wasn’t in a club every weekend and listening to all the records we distribute through the week then I’m sure I’d have a problem and wonder why I’m doing all of this. And it’s the same the other way around: as a DJ travelling around I would be missing my anchor. I need a straight job, an office job to keep me right. To ensure that I don’t lose my head. I like doing normal things during the week and then being wild at weekends. Yin and yang.” “The only thing I pre-determine is that I play 4/4. The rest happens by accident. I love the deeper side of music, obviously, but I like it raw and kicking. There has to be some pop too and my sets are very pop influenced: I don’t mix tools for hours, there has to be waves like a pop song. I love records that are structured, that have a beginning/middle/end. It’s the same for any clubnight, there has to be that progression. I love to warm up and take my time to get in to it, to take people with me. At the end I love to play songs and some things you can whistle on the way home.” www.kompakt.fm www.echocord.com

STRØM og DR at lande legendariske Autechre i København. Det bliver givet en helt særlig oplevelse, når denne britiske elektroduo betvinger maskinparken - live i Koncerthuset. Begivenheden starter klokken 21.00, men forventes at fortsætte til efter klokken 02.00 med et overload af koncert plus et second-to-none top-line-up af elektro-DJ'ing - koncerten må forventes, at blive en af årets mest betydningsfulde elektro-begivenheder - intet mindre! Foyer-scene er artistens valg Autechre har direkte efterspurgt at optræde på scenen i Koncerthusets foyer frem for i en af salene - dette kunstnerisk interessante ønske efterkommes naturligvis for at sikre maksimal integritet om kunstneren, og for derigennem at sikre den optimale Autechre performance. Publikum får dermed muligheden for at opleve Koncerthuset fra en ny vinkel. Koncerthuset har netop vundet: Wallpaper Design Awards 2010 prisen, for bedste nye offentlige byggeri. Pionerer på techno-scenen Sammen med techno-veteranen, Aphex Twin, skabte Sean Booth og Rob Brown den elektroniske subgenre IDM - Intelligent Dance Music. Og siden 1987 har de to originale elektrokunstnere høstet verdensomspændende anerkendelse for deres hyper-programmerede, komplekse og hårde lydmønstre. Autechre har reelt defineret en ny retning, ja faktisk en undergenre inden for technomusikken Vi er derfor pavestolte af at kunne præsentere dem på københavnsk grund for første gang! Det er fem år siden, Autechre spillede deres hidtil eneste koncert i Danmark. Warp Records og Chris Cunningham Autechre indspiller for britiske Warp Records, der regnes som den måske vigtigste spiller i nyere tid på den elektroniske musikscene, og i marts 2010 udgiver Autechre deres 10. album på Warp - 'Oversteps'. Warp Records repræsenterer førende navne som Aphex Twin, Squarepusher, Broadcast, men faktisk også !!!, Grizzly Bear, Battles, Flying Lotus og Anti-Pop Consortium o.m.a. Autechre har tidligere skabt en synergi mellem musik og et visuelt udtryk i samarbejde med den grænseoverskridende instruktør Chris Cunningham - der med et absolut unikt og uendeligt mørkt billedsprog har skabt kunstmusikvideoer for blandt andre: Björk, Portishead, Aphex Twin og Nick Cave. Men også skræmmende film som 'Rubber Johnny'

Siden har de to ikke kigget sig tilbage, Mens den franske Ed Banger-elektrobølge med Daft Punk-look-a-likes på stribe har huseret de europæiske klubber så valgte Crookers at tage kampen på internettet og diverse blogs. De har remixet, re-edit'et, produceret og DJ'et overalt for alle. Altfra AC/DC over U2 til Britney Spears har fået en tur gennem Crookers-maskinen, og de har spyttet det ene elektro-mash-up-smadrede track ud efter det andet. Man kan umuligt komme udenom at deres knastørre og meget progressive clash-lyd har sejret på klubscenen. Sammen med Soulwax har de lavet nogle af de mest spillede remixes i de senere år.

I går offentliggjorde vi den ekstravagante vokalvirtuos og pianist; Diamanda Galás. Nu tilføjer vi så endnu en rystende musikoplevelse til begivenheden, nemlig premieresamarbejdet mellem den, internationalt anerkendte lydkunstner; Jacob Kirkegaard og New Yorks legendariske No Wave-ikon; Lydia Lunch. Lydia Lunch & Jacob Kirkegaard fremfører ¹Forget to Breathe¹ Koncertpremieren forener Danmarks internationalt anerkendte soundartist; Jacob Kirkegaards bearbejdning af reallyde, baseret på field recordings, og cello med Lydia Lunchs notorisk rå poesi og uortodokse guitar. Lydia Lunch har gennem fire årtier skabt sig en særposition inden for flere kunstdiscipliner ­ fra ung ekspresiv støjpioner i 1970¹ernes; No wave, over litteratur, spoken word og i filmbevægelsen ¹Cinema of Transgression¹, i samarbejder med bl.a. Richard Kern, Nick Zedd og Vivienne Dick- Lunch musikalske samarbejder spænder over Sonic Youth, Nick Cave, Einstürzende Neubauten til danske Sort SolŠ Lydia Lunch og film (US) Lydia Lunch er i lighed med Diamanda Galás tæt knyttet til filmens verden. På filmfestivalen CPH PIX ´10 kan man opleve hende i en cameo-rolle i Asia Argentos ¹The Heart Is Deceitful Above all Things¹, ligesom hun har medvirket i over 20 andre filmværker gennem tiderne. Jacob Kirkegaard (DK) Danske Kirkegaard er bosat i Berlin, men udgives på det prestigefyldte britiske pladeselskab Touch Music (Biosphere, Fennesz, Ryoji Ikeda). Kirkegaard kan med rette betegnes som Skandinaviens, ja måske endda tidens vigtigste realkomponist udi musikalsk lydkunst. Diamanda Galás: Mytisk vokalvirtuos, diva og legende I skarp konkurrence må græsk-amerikanske Diamanda Galás dog alligevel regnes for hovednavn i Marmorkirken. Galás¹ karriere startede tilbage i 1982, og hendes avant-garde meritter tåler ingen sammenligning i verden, ligesom hendes afsindige stemmeregister tangerer det umuliges kunst. Hendes udtryk berører Jazz, Blues, Klassisk musik og opera, litanier samt støjmusik. Men Diamanda Galás ekstreme, og super nuancerede udtryk lader sig slet ikke rubricere. Dertil er hun alt for kompleks i vælde og overlegen diversitet. Det er betegnende, at Diamanda synger på mere en seks sprog live. Det vil være for omfattende, at opremse hendes mange samarbejder med eks. Nusrat Fateh Ali KhanŠ, men det bør nævnes, at Galás i 1994 udgav albummet 'The Sporting Life' sammen med Led Zeppelins bassist; John Paul Jones. Diamanda Galás seneste album, 'Guilty, Guilty, Guilty' omhandler tragiske og morderiske kærlighedssange. Koncerten i Marmorkirken er en enestående chance for at høre den mest særprægede stemme i vor tid ­ og samtidig overvære verdenspremieren på Lunch/Kirkegaards ¹Forget to breathe¹.

Den canadiske dj og producer, med det borgerlige navn Joel Zimmerman, har tryllet musik ud af maskiner i alle tænkelige afskygninger, siden han var ganske ung, og det ser ikke ud til at stoppe foreløbigt Deadmau5 er en frontløber, og det interessante ved ham er, at han, modsat traditionelle dj’s, ikke blot spiller cd’er, men skaber sine egne produkter ved at sample lyde og riffs. Det har resulteret i priser som årets Electro House DJ i 2008 og 2009, samt årets bedste Progressiv House DJ og bedste Electro House single med succesproduktionen ”Not Exactly”. Sidste år kunne et pakket Cosmopol opleve Deadmau5 på årets Roskilde Festival, hvor han optrådte i sit sædvanlige karakteristiske musekostume. Koncerten fik 5 stjerner af Gaffas anmelder, der kaldte koncerten for en af de helt store. Genremæssigt bevæger Deadmau5 sig inden for fusions-genren Electro House, der indeholder elementer fra House, Trance og Techno.
