The Meta Gala 2019 Many Things in the World Have Not Been Named The METa Gala 2019 Many things in the world have not been named; and many things, even if they have been named, have never been described. (NEW YORK / April 19, 2019) — On May 6, 2019, Jessica Wong and Ludovica Capobianco ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ will be hosting the METa Gala, a unique, one-night only event at the Williamsburg Hotel, Brooklyn. The METa Gala is a night dedicated to experimental art and music surrounding the theme of “camp” as defined by Susan Sontag in 1964 as “love of the unnatural, of artifice and ​ ​ exaggeration; style at the expense of content; the triumph of the epicene style.” Camp allows for ​ ​ any one, any creators, to experiment with multi-dimensional elements and themes without any consideration for content. The external aesthetic speaks all. The event aims at reverting the concept of Camp since, even if aesthetically relating to artifice and exaggeration, its focus is to ​ ​ look for content beyond surface exaggeration, for new ways of expression that mirrors the current. The METa Gala fulfills its mission through underground, genre-bending performances, sensory multimedia installations, and an open invitation to all who wish to attend. The METa Gala is additionally a fundraising initiative towards a culminating exhibition in NYC featuring artists whose practice is centered on immersive and site specific installations, videos, ​ and performances, all art forms that still have a peripheral presence in the art world, especially for young and emerging artists. The evening will open at 8PM with a mingling cocktail hour, followed by performances by the multidisciplinary artist Greg Fox, the multi-hyphenate creative Tygapaw, Ghetto House and ​ ​ ​ ​ Juke legend Traxman, and the music producer and DJ Ariel Zetina. The performers’ sets will ​ ​ ​ ​ coincide with video projections and installation work by James Moore, Kip Davis, and Zoe ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Fitzgerald. Tickets start at $75; VIP entry (open bar) at $125, and VIP Tables for 7 (open bar and bottle service) at $1,000. For more information and to purchase tickets, visit bit.ly/2V2lPU1. The ​ ​ Williamsburg Hotel is located on 96 Wythe Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11249. Greg Fox is a multi-instrumentalist, interdisciplinary artist, and teacher born and based in New ​ York City. A versatile and prolific creative, Fox has toured, recorded and released numerous records with Liturgy, Guardian Alien, ZS, Ex Eye, Skeletons, Teeth Mountain, Dan Deacon, Colin Stetson, Ben Frost, and many more. Fox’s solo work is concerned with finding and creating gestural points of procedural interaction that reconcile seemingly unrelated interstitial spaces, using sound to create and describe emotional and geometric architectural territories. TYGAPAW (Dion McKenzie) is a Multi-Disciplined producer and DJ based in Crown Heights, ​ Brooklyn. Her Jamaican ancestry and upbringing fused with her 13 years living in New York City have influenced a music style she dubs “Sultry Club.” She incorporates sexy 90’s R&B sounds with futuristic vibes and intricate melodies that are as much for the club as they are for a chill kiki at your home girls crib. Her productions are unique and specific to her history. She is the curator behind “Fake Accent,” a monthly Brooklyn based queer club night that has featured DJ’s such as Rizzla, False Witness, JX Canon, HD, Mursi Layne and more, and also the co-curator behind queer Caribbean party series and creative platform, “SHOTTAS NYC.” Traxman (Cornelius Ferguson) is from the West Side of Chicago and one of the longest ​ serving producers working in House and Footwork with releases stretching back to the glory days of Ghetto House on Dance Mania records in the nineties. His unique brand of Footwork is very strongly rooted in Chicago's history of Soul, Funk, House and Ghetto Trax. Traxman's own productions are an incredibly well rounded suture between hip hop’s natural funk and resourceful sample flipping, the hyper-kinetic innovation of footwork’s stop-start, half-time to double-speed drum programming and a deep respect and understanding of Chicago’s House past, that few producers can match. Ariel Zetina is a Chicago based artist, focusing on music production and deejaying. Though her ​ music can be considered techno, she takes inspiration from Chicago house, Belizean genres punta and brukdown, and the queer club scene worldwide. Her ruthless, cross genre DJs have been heard worldwide- her favorites include R4R (Berlin), Brutaz (Warsaw), Festival Grounded (Ljubljana), Femmetopia (London), Mixed Forms (SF), Directory (LA), Swetboxx (Miami), Discwoman (Detroit) & Wrecked/Carry Nation (NYC).

  • Garage House Music Whats up with That
    Garage House Music whats up with that Future funk is a sample-based advancement of Nu-disco which formed out of the Vaporwave scene and genre in the early 2010s. It tends to be more energetic than vaporwave, including elements of French Home, Synth Funk, and making use of Vaporwave modifying techniques. A style coming from the mid- 2010s, often explained as a blend of UK garage and deep home with other elements and strategies from EDM, popularized in late 2014 into 2015, typically mixes deep/metallic/sax hooks with heavy drops somewhat like the ones discovered in future garage. One of the very first house categories with origins embeded in New York and New Jersey. It was named after the Paradise Garage bar in New york city that operated from 1977 to 1987 under the prominent resident DJ Larry Levan. Garage house established along with Chicago home and the outcome was home music sharing its resemblances, affecting each other. One contrast from Chicago house was that the vocals in garage house drew stronger impacts from gospel. Noteworthy examples consist of Adeva and Tony Humphries. Kristine W is an example of a musician involved with garage house outside the genre's origin of birth. Also understood as G-house, it includes very little 808 and 909 drum machine-driven tracks and often sexually explicit lyrics. See likewise: ghettotech, juke house, footwork. It integrates components of Chicago's ghetto house with electro, Detroit techno, Miami bass and UK garage. It includes four-on-the-floor rhythms and is normally faster than a lot of other dance music categories, at approximately 145 to 160 BPM.

Most of these approaches, in one form or another, ac- knowledge the impact of synthesisers on musical culture, either by celebrating their role in powering avant-garde eras of sonic experimentation and composition, or by mapping the relationship between manufacturing trends and stylistic divergences in popular mu- sic. The availability of affordable, portable and approachable synthesiser designs has been highlighted as a catalyst for their crossover from academic to popular spheres, while a number of authors have dealt with the transition from analogue to digital tech- nologies and their effect on the stylisation of performance and production approaches3.

  • Clubbing in Los Angeles Jonny Coleman Tackles the Multi-Farious Scene in One of America's Biggest Cities
    Clubbing in Los Angeles Jonny Coleman tackles the multi-farious scene in one of America's biggest cities. Los Angeles has always been a capital of pop culture. Outside of rave, however, it's never had much of a reputation for its dance music culture. Until recently, that is. The efforts of local promoters have given rise to enormous EDM festivals, the Low End Theory-driven beat scene and thriving techno and house crews—and have led to the city finally becoming internationally recognized. Now, it seems, a place that houses four million people inside the city limits and 18 million in the greater Southland area, is finally representing itself on the world stage. True to its geography—a set of suburbs fronting as a megalopolis—Los Angeles doesn't have a dominant sound or theme. Instead, there are many scenes tugging for attention and battling over the few legitimate dance venues the city has to offer. It's enormously difficult to acquire a liquor license in LA, thanks in no small part to club-owning cowboys like Eddie Nash (of Wonderland murder fame), and those that do can't serve all that late anyway. Most nights last from 10 until 2 or 3 AM (a reality that often results in seeing your headlining DJ for two hours). It doesn't help that many of the historical clubs/bars in places like Hollywood and West Hollywood are a tough sell to fans of underground music, as the price points, degree of parking difficulty and douchebaggery quotient are all high. That means that many parties of note take place downtown or in other east side neighborhoods (if not a private estate).

  • Hopeless Youth!
    HOPELESS YOUTH! Editors Francisco Martínez and Pille Runnel Hopeless Youth! is a collection of studies exploring what it means to be young today. Young people increasingly create their own identities and solidarities through experiences rather than through political or kin affiliations. It is the youth with the greatest hunger of experiences and cosmopolitan referents. Youngsters are hopeless because do not expect help from anybody and demonstrate scepticism about the future. As shown, contemporary youth is characterised by interim responses and situational thinking, developing particular skills that do not exist in previous generations. Beware that these essays will certainly resonate in your morning, afternoon and late night. Estonian National Museum Veski 32 51014 Tartu Estonia HOPELESS YOUTH!

WORLDMUSIC 2.0... may 21th, 2011 ¡RADICAL RIDDIMS! - Global Ghetto Tech June 10 – 18, 2011 Schau Fenster Gallery & Ritter Butzke, Berlin Kreuzberg Over a period of nine days, the event ¡RADICAL RIDDIMS! - Global Ghetto Tech will be devoted to heavy bass music styles like Baile Funk, Miami Bass, New Orleans Bounce, Baltimore Club, Chicago Juke, and Coupé Décalé, as well as Kuduro from Angola, South African Kwaito, British Dubstep and 2step, and Bassline from Sheffield. All these musical strands represent a form of ‘positive’ cultural globalization and are among the most promising and pioneering innovations in pop and dance music as well as global club culture. As part of the sound system and dancehall cultures of the favelas, townships and banlieus, these ultra- referential and hybrid music styles are largely produced on cheap digital equipment. Distributed quickly over the internet to an eager global audience, these musical genres then make their way into hyper-hybrid music styles. In co-operation with Schau Fenster gallery and Ritter Butzke club, we have invited protagonists from a range of urban musical hotspots to the German capital for a get-together with the corresponding Berlin scene. The musical line-up will be accompanied by an exhibition of international video works, documentary films and lectures, in which we will spotlight on the various local musical scenes and ‘hyper hybrid’ club music, as well as discuss the connections and disparities between key concepts like regionality and globality, citation and original creation, copyright and authorship, digitality, internet and web cultures, as well as the phenomenon of image transfer in popular culture.
