Memories of Miss Memory

Yes my creative friends, CDR is just around the corner so time to get a crackin on getting a track or three spruced up for the night. Get busy and drop your new tracks mixed down and onto a disc for us to hear. The music at the last CDR was incredible and great to see some new faces. Don’t worry about tracks being finished and perfect - the nights about checking each other’s vibe and also getting to hear your music before you finish it off - a chance to tweak or add or boost that little something to make it awesome.

And what about your friends?

CDR isn’t just about equipment nerds getting all hot n bothered about knobs and faders, this is a music get together for everyone who wants to hear NEW MUSIC. Invite all your friends to have a drink and a dance and be part of the night.

All you have to do is bring down a CDR with 1-3 tracks you are working on, or have just completed, and hand it in to us before 9:30pm.

7 - 8:00 we’ll be playing CDR’s from absent friends - from as far and wide as Melbourne, Perth, and Adelaide to Detroit, London, Reykjavik, Berlin, etc etc etc. Big names, unknown names, hard-to-pronounce names…you’ll find them all here.

8 - 9:00 Lorna will chat with the Gaslamp Killer and quite possibly some other other stellar acts that are currently in town. You will have to come down to find out!!!!

9:00 - close the soundsystem gets 100% localised, as we dig through and play the music you bring along with you on the night.

Lorna and Charles Webster, last CDR session in July 2008.

Filling the shoes of our beloved pal Some Freak, who is currently traversing the globe, I am proud to have come on board the Space is the Place team to present to you The Motherf%&#ing Gaslamp Killer in his first ever Sydney show!

The Gaslamp Killer, Los Angeles based DJ/Producer, Low End Theorist, and Dublab Radio resident, is not your conventional artist. What separates him from the rest of the herd is his extensive knowledge in psychedelic rock, left-field jazz, demonic bass-heavy Hip-Hop, Middle-Eastern/ Indian rare grooves, and ear-piercing helicopter breaks. The energy during his live sets resonates through crowds, taking you to the filthiest psyche/freak-out you’ve ever been on. He’s earned the respect of eclectic heavy-hitters around the world and has shared the stage with Flying Lotus, Digable Planets, Kode9, Broadcast, M.F. Doom, Thievery Corporation, and many others.

When: Thursday 2nd October 2008
Where: Civic Underground, 388 Pitt st, Sydney
Start: 9pm
Cost: $15.00 (plus bf) BUY TIX HERE!

It’s been a long time between drinks, and no doubt, while I have been out gallivanting around Australia with my band, local Sydneysiders have been in their studios whiling away the bitterly cold days making sweet music. So if that sounds like you, then you should get those masterpieces down on disc and bring them to CDR this Thursday night at Hermanns . Our special guest this month is the talented deep house producer, Charles Webster., who will be on the lounge with Lorna discussing his wealth of knowledge on music production and running a record label.

CDR isn’t just about equipment nerds getting all hot n bothered about knobs and faders, this is a music get together for everyone who wants to hear NEW MUSIC. Invite all your friends to have a drink and and be part of the night.
