DISCO UNUSUAL SOCIAL CLUB

Sunday, April 26, 2009

The May edition of Jackson takes on a disco aesthetic as we welcome Environ Records afficionado MORGAN GEIST for his first appearance at Sonotheque. One half of the incomparable METRO AREA (with Darshan Jesrani), Morgan's "Double Night Time" solo album was released to critical acclaim in 2008, topping end of year lists the world over. He returns to Chicago for his second Jackson performance! The evening's theme continues as we welcome the sublime LONO BRAZIL for his debut appearance at Jackson. With a storied history in the music industry, the scene stalwart's current monthly endeavor - the Disco Unusual Social Club - regularly blows the roof off of Danny's tavern, and we're floored to finally have him at Jackson. Samone SR71 Roberts rounds out our transmission, bringing her unique brand of effervescent disco stylings to Sonotheque in what will set off a night boogie-down jams from start to finish!

Most people know two things about Detroit tech-soul legend Moodymann, aka Kenny Dixon, Jr.:
1) In the game since the mid-‘90s, Moodymann’s minimal yet soulful, sample-heavy sound melds the mechanics of house music with the pulse and grime of techno to form a Detroit tech-house crossbreed that is unique the world over and lauded on all points of the globe. He played a primary role in shaping the genre, and has publicly decried what he sees as a white DJ dominance in commercial electronic music.

2) And that’s about all they know about Moodymann.
It’s only very recently that the Moody one has become comfortable with raising his profile and taking more credit for his significant body of work (the full list of Dixon’s alleged ghost productions is staggering). Here, in his first-ever interview, the elusive producer gives us a quick look into his clandestine inner world.

This is the DUSC EDITS version done by Lono Brazil. I needed it longer and deeper for the dancefloor for our last party here in Chicago with Lee Douglas & Lovefingers. The reaction was very good. Moodymann is one of my favorite producers in the whole of electronic music.....He is like none other.
