La Banda Inglesa Klaxons Presentará Su Disco Love Frequency En El Lunario México D.F., a 10 de diciembre de 2014 La banda inglesa Klaxons presentará su disco Love Frequency en el Lunario El grupo emblemático del movimiento new rave llega a México para ofrecer un concierto el 29 de enero Su presentación en este foro podría ser la última oportunidad de ver juntos a los integrantes de la agrupación Formado en Inglaterra en 2005, y con tres álbumes en su carrera, el grupo Klaxons integrado por Jamie Reynolds (bajo y voz), Simon Taylor-Davis (guitarra) y James Righton (teclados y voz), ha logrado establecerse como una de las bandas alternativas más reconocidas en la última década, que por primera vez pisará el Lunario. La agrupación de indie rock-electrónico llegará al foro alterno del Auditorio Nacional el próximo 29 de enero, como parte de su gira, donde presentará su más reciente producción discográfica Love Frequency (2014); y su concierto en este escenario podría convertirse en la última oportunidad de ver juntos a los integrantes de la banda. Tras anunciar esta nueva gira a través de sus redes sociales, el trío informó que éste será su último tour de conciertos y que sólo volverán a presentarse juntos en festivales. La banda que tomó su nombre del Manifiesto futurista del movimiento literario encabezado por el italiano Filippo Marinetti, cuyo sonido fusiona música dance y experimentación instrumental, cerraría así una breve pero trascendente carrera musical. Su primer álbum, Myths of Near Future (2007), los consolidó como una de las bandas más prometedoras de la escena musical británica. El disco se colocó en la segunda posición de los más vendidos en el Reino Unido, y gracias a él recibieron el prestigiado Mercury Prize Award, que premia al Mejor álbum británico del año, así como el galardón a Mejor álbum de los premios NME 2007. Mientras se concretaba el lanzamiento de su segundo disco, por desacuerdos con con su disquera, la agrupación considerada una de las bandas insignia del movimiento new rave, realizó diversas presentaciones en vivo, entre las que destacan su concierto en la Manchester Evening News Arena durante el regreso del grupo de rock británico Blur, además de una aparición sorpresa en el Festival de Glastonbury 2009. Su álbum Surfing the Void, finalmente lanzado en 2010, tuvo buenas críticas por parte de los medios especializados, aunque para muchos marcó un distanciamiento de la propuesta original de la banda y no alcanzó el mismo revuelo que su disco debut. 1 Klaxons comenzó a trabajar un par de años después en su tercera producción Love Frequency, que viene a presentar el próximo año en el Lunario del Auditorio Nacional, donde colaboraron James Murphy, Tom Rowlands de Chemical Brothers, Erol Alkan y el dúo electrónico Gorgon City. El álbum fusiona música dance, rhythm and blues, electrónica, rock progresivo y estética del post-punk, aunque en su búsqueda por volver a su sonido original, la banda también retoma elementos musicales de su primer disco. Este material discográfico completa la trilogía temática de discos con los que la autodenominada banda pop subversiva pretendía explorar el tiempo: el futuro (Myths of Near Future), el pasado (Surfing the void) y el presente (Love Frequency), al tiempo que reafirma los principios básicos de Klaxons como banda: que es posible hacer música pop bizarra capaz de conquistar estadios, rock que pueda sonar en un patio trasero o música electrónica digna de festivales de primer nivel como el EDM. La presentación del grupo británico en nuestro país coincide con el “Año del Reino Unido en México”, a celebrarse en 2015, como parte de un Año Dual entre México y el Reino Unido, al que el foro alterno del Auditorio Nacional se sumará para festejar la relación diplomática de casi 190 años entre ambos países. El concierto Lunario presenta: Klaxons tendrá lugar en el Lunario (Reforma 50, Bosque de Chapultepec, costado poniente del Auditorio Nacional), el jueves 29 de enero a las 21:00 horas. Boletos: $550 y $850, disponibles en taquillas del Lunario, Auditorio Nacional, y sistema Ticketmaster. Más información: http://www.lunario.com.mx 2 .

  • Adidas Originals Unite All Originals Press
    Very few DJs can jump from club sets to high-profile festival performances, to Kanye West’s larger- than-life stadium shows with ease. In today’s DJ culture, A-Trak holds a truly unique place. He and partner Nick Catchdubs founded America’s most trendsetting new label, Fool’s Gold, launching the careers of artists such as Kid Sister and Kid Cudi. Fool’s Gold’s mission to merge all aspects of club music was already outlined in Trizzy’s original mixtape manifesto, Dirty South Dance, which set the tone for his own production. He is now one of the most sought-after remixers in electronic music, and his remixes for the likes of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Boys Noize have become undeniable mainstays in DJ sets the world over. 2009 saw the release of two critically acclaimed DJ mixes, Infinity +1 and Fabriclive 45, as well as the birth of Duck Sauce, his collaboration with Armand Van Helden. The duo’s radio smash “aNYway” cemented itself as the dance anthem of the year, A-Trak’s first true chart- topper with two videos in international rotation and across-the-board support from Pete Tong to Busy P, David Guetta to 2manydjs. Duck Sauce’s 2010 follow up “Barbra Streisand” was even bigger, a whistling pop sensation that accumulated over 60 million YouTube views of its star-studded video while hitting platinum heights around the globe. They even covered it on X-Factor and Glee! Not bad for a kid whom many viewed as a 90’s turntablism prodigy.

    PRESS RELEASE First names for Sziget 2014 The Sziget crew is happy to announce the first names confirmed for the music program of this year’s ’Island of Freedom’ taking place between 11-18 August. Queens of the Stone Age, Calvin Harris, Placebo and many more will definitely be at Óbudai Island in the heart of Budapest this summer. In 2014 the ’Island of Freedom’ will take place one week later than previously. Károly Gerendai, founder and main organizer of Sziget Festival, said: „It seems like a good decision that we put the date of Sziget one week later, because now we can announce better names compared to this time last year. To put it simple there is a better chance that bands are on a European tour at this part of the month.” Sziget Festival was once again shortlisted amongst the top ten major European festivals this year at the European Festival Awards. As always, the music line-up will feature acts from various genres, while stars and smaller, but super exciting acts will both be presented at the stages of the event. The first names are… Queens of the Stone Age, the legendary rock band from Palm Desert, California, is known for its riff-oriented, heavy rock music. The cornerstone and charismatic leader of QOTSA is the singer-guitarist, Grammy Award winner, Josh Homme. Their latest album from 2013 ...Like Clockwork has an amazing list of contributors like Joey Castillo (former drummer), Mark Lanegan (regular collaborator and former member) and also Trent Reznor (Nine Inch Nails). This year they are going to rock Sziget Festival for sure.
