For Paul, playing to New York crowds has never been “just March 2006 another gig.” This being the fourth consecutive year that PVD has February 2006 January 2006 played Central Park SummerStage (a Made Event) the bar has December 2005 been set higher than ever before in terms of production. Van Dyk November 2005 himself has a few surprises in store, and the anticipation is October 2005 palpable as the August 18th and 19th dates draw near. (The September 2005 second SummerStage date was added to accommodate August 2005 overwhelming demand.) Both New York dates will be sold out. July 2005 Click here for tickets. June 2005 An uncompromising electronic music DJ/producer of international May 2005 fame, Paul Van Dyk has had a love affair with New Yorkers since April 2005 his earliest days playing Disco 2000 at Limelight, but it was more archives Search during his now-legendary residency at Manhattan club, Twilo, that this love affair blossomed into a legitimate bond. His affinity with New York’s savviest dance music lovers continued to grow in the Search ensuing years as the quality of his shows matured in sophistication. [Editor’s Note: Stay tuned for an exclusive Clubplanet behind-the-scenes “production diary” with Mike Bindra of Made Event in the coming weeks.] Soon, Van Dyk will unveil his first-ever weekly radio show in the U.S. on Sirius Radio. The significance of his show is bolstered by satellite radio’s increasing popularity over terrestrial radio. Paul is also thrilled with the launch of his “new baby,” the Internet radio station-slash-download site, Vonyc. With all of the projects on his plate and the constant touring (a full schedule of his fall tour, including a romp through Texas and California in September, appears at the bottom of this interview)– it’s halfway through the year and Van Dyk has already circled the globe – it’s a wonder that he finds time to create new music at all. He is, in fact, working furiously on his new artist album (his last album was Reflections, and his latest compilation is Politics of Dancing 2) which is due for release in the spring of 2007. And he'll also be touring In this candid interview exclusively for Clubplanet with DJ Times writer Emily Tan, Paul Van Dyk discusses what’s on his mind and 1 of 8 7/20/2006 12:17 PM The Paul Van Dyk Interview, July 19, 2006 - nightlife, bars http://www.clubplanet.com/news/archive/the_paul_van_dyk_interview.asp Ads by Goooooogle gives readers a glimpse of where he’s going next. Insider's Nightlife Emily Tan: Congratulations on adding the second Central Guide Park SummerStage date! What can fans expect this year Hot Bars Hip that’s different from the last three years? Restaurants Cool Clubs Search the Paul Van Dyk: Well, the past three years have been always BlackBook List for different from each other because of the production and such. We Free! had a little surprise performance of “The Other Side” last year www.blackbookmag.com/ with Wayne Jackson, for example. Since it’s a surprise, I’m not gonna reveal what’s so special for this year. [laughs] My perspective is always the musical one, so if I talk about surprises, it’s always about the musical aspect. NY Event & Party Planning Some big news that’s breaking here first is that you just NYC Nightlife & signed a deal with Sirius for your own weekly show, the Special Events first-time you’ve ever had a radio show – including on First class events terrestrial radio – in the U.S.! at the top clubs www.FifthAveGroup.com PVD: Absolutely, I’m really happy about that. The show’s going to be called “Vonyc Sessions,” and it’ll be once-a-week with a re-broadcast later in the week. This is something I’m really excited about. That’s one of the initial thoughts why we even thought about doing something like this: I know a lot of people bar 13 are listening through the Internet to my German show, so it Serving nightlife in makes a lot of sense. If there’s a huge number of people listening NYC since 1996 in the U.S., why not do a show for people in English, directly for Open 7 Nights. them? www.bar13.com When will you launch your new Sirius show? PVD: I wanna make the Sirius show as good as it goes, because New York it includes professional jingles, trailers and such. Once the whole Nightlife machine is in gear, and it takes time to get everything sorted with Guides to my schedule…I have to have a proper structure of when I do the Undiscovered NYC show, when it’s being transferred to Sirius, and that all has to be 100% in-place before we go ahead with a launch party. It’d be Dining. & Bars. Get absolutely a mess if I would launch it on a particular day and if I Them Free at couldn’t deliver in the next two weeks. But it’ll launch very soon. DailyCandy www.DailyCandy.com Vonyc.com is your baby. What’s so special about it? PVD: Vonyc.com is our download site; it’s an online radio where you can listen to the latest electronic songs. The best in electronic, as we call it. The “Vonyc Sessions” is a weekly outtake of the best of electronic music. Does the Vonyc.com website carry music that people would expect to hear in a Paul Van Dyk DJ set, such as tracks signed exclusively to you label, Vandit? PVD: Not necessarily. The Vonyc side is open to all sorts of electronic music; it just has to have a high quality level. All the Vandit things are on there, but we also have deep, electro stuff, like from Armada and AnjunaBeats. The whole reason we started the Vonyc site was because there were always complaints from the music industry about illegal file-sharing, but I always said you cannot blame people for it. I said that 99% of electronic music only comes-out on vinyl, so you have to wait until someone rips it and uploads it to the Internet. Labels’ only option is to release it legally. 2 of 8 7/20/2006 12:17 PM The Paul Van Dyk Interview, July 19, 2006 - nightlife, bars http://www.clubplanet.com/news/archive/the_paul_van_dyk_interview.asp I thought, “What would I like to have?” I‘d like to be able to listen to music, so you can sample every single track when you go into the search function on Vonyc. It’s also about the radio function: It’s a 24/7 radio that always plays the latest electronic music, and whatever you like, you can click on a button and you can download it. We’re targeting the music that’s really demanded, the big things that are being played in the clubs, but we also have the very small, underground house labels. We saw early-on that most likely if you download it, you’ll probably have it before the DJs have it. We get pretty much double the amount of music now; we get two CDs of everything. One for me, one for the site. Judge Jules has his own music store, where he makes available for download most of the custom-edited tracks he plays out. Is Vonyc characterized by having the “Paul Van Dyk sound”? PVD: Actually, I’m not even deciding what’s played. I have a very good team sitting there that’s basically very good at analyzing huge potential, like, “Here, this is a great track!” We get so many demos from young talent that don’t even have a label, so these artists get very early exposure right away. I’m not really artistically that much controlling it, at all. These are tracks that are very interesting, be it something bleepy or very happy or very heavy, all sorts of stuff. They do a really good job at compiling a great variety of sounds. It’s already a few of the tracks that started to become big in the clubs, and we had them first. I played them in my sets. When iiO’s “Rapture” first got into your hands four or five years ago, you played that song in every set for several weeks, maybe a few months. A global DJ of your stature can surely make-or-break a new track or a new artist. Is that something you’re trying to do with Vonyc, help break new artists? PVD: Well…there’s a track by Emjay called “Real High” that I play in my sets. It’s not even out yet, but I’ve seen people holding-up signs at shows asking me to play it. [laughs] Holding-up signs? People bring signs to a club? PVD: [laughs] Yeah, well…they cannot request something, so sometimes they hold signs up. How is your Vonyc.com site different or better than other sites like iTunes, Beatport, Rhapsody, or JudgeMusic.net? PVD: It’s difficult to say one’s better.

  • The Twenty Greatest Music Concerts I've Ever Seen
    THE TWENTY GREATEST MUSIC CONCERTS I'VE EVER SEEN Whew, I'm done. Let me remind everyone how this worked. I would go through my Ipod in that weird Ipod alphabetical order and when I would come upon an artist that I have seen live, I would replay that concert in my head. (BTW, since this segment started I no longer even have an ipod. All my music is on my laptop and phone now.) The number you see at the end of the concert description is the number of times I have seen that artist live. If it was multiple times, I would do my best to describe the one concert that I considered to be their best. If no number appears, it means I only saw that artist once. Mind you, I have seen many artists live that I do not have a song by on my Ipod. That artist is not represented here. So although the final number of concerts I have seen came to 828 concerts (wow, 828!), the number is actually higher. And there are "bar" bands and artists (like LeCompt and Sam Butera, for example) where I have seen them perform hundreds of sets, but I counted those as "one," although I have seen Lecompt in "concert" also. Any show you see with the four stars (****) means they came damn close to being one of the Top Twenty, but they fell just short. So here's the Twenty. Enjoy and thanks so much for all of your input. And don't sue me if I have a date wrong here and there.

What are important to this work are the contributions and influence of nightlife subculture to greater New York City history through fashion, music, and art. I intend to prove that, in combination with the city’s gradual revanchism of neighborhood properties, the self-destructive nature of this after-hours sector has led to its own demise.

  • Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- Lecture for C-Span
    Fordham University DigitalResearch@Fordham Occasional Essays Bronx African American History Project 10-28-2019 Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- Lecture for C-Span Mark Naison Follow this and additional works at: https://fordham.bepress.com/baahp_essays Part of the African American Studies Commons, American Popular Culture Commons, Cultural History Commons, and the Ethnomusicology Commons Why Hip Hop Began in the Bronx- My Lecture for C-Span What I am about to describe to you is one of the most improbable and inspiring stories you will ever hear. It is about how young people in a section of New York widely regarded as a site of unspeakable violence and tragedy created an art form that would sweep the world. It is a story filled with ironies, unexplored connections and lessons for today. And I am proud to share it not only with my wonderful Rock and Roll to Hip Hop class but with C-Span’s global audience through its lectures in American history series. Before going into the substance of my lecture, which explores some features of Bronx history which many people might not be familiar with, I want to explain what definition of Hip Hop that I will be using in this talk. Some people think of Hip Hop exclusively as “rap music,” an art form taken to it’s highest form by people like Tupac Shakur, Missy Elliot, JZ, Nas, Kendrick Lamar, Wu Tang Clan and other masters of that verbal and musical art, but I am thinking of it as a multilayered arts movement of which rapping is only one component.

  • A Chat with the DJ - Apostille
    [email protected] A Chat with the DJ - Apostille MB.. You Have very kindly agreed to do a mix for the podcast but I feel its always good for listeners to get to know you a little with a 5 step Q & A.. So we know that you play the deep, melodic and progressive style but when did you start to DJ and what made you take the step from punter to player ?? (as in the DJ kind) Apostille: My first ever visit to a nightclub was to see Paul Oakenfold at The Warehouse in April 1996. I was 16. My mum gave me and three mates a lift to the club and we were listening to Radio 1 in the car. Pete Tong played his essential new tune – it was Born Slippy. We get in and guess what, four hours later Oakey drops Born Slippy at prime time to a rammed club. Blew my mind. That was the moment I wanted to do be a DJ. My parents bought me some sketchy belt drive turntables for Christmas in 1996. By the end of 1997 I was playing small venues locally. That year I saw Sasha and Digweed touring Northern Exposure. I knew I liked that melodic genre, but when Paul Van Dyk came to town with his acid infused progressive trance I was all in on that sound. He drifted away from that sound actually and went more mainstream trance. I have never forgiven him! MB.. If you can share one musical memory with us, as a DJ or punter, which has lodged itself in the memory bank, what is it?? Apostille: For starters I have definitely had more fun as a punter than a DJ.

  • The MFS Trip Into the History of Trance!
    The MFS Trip into the History of Trance! Bittles‘ Magazine | Album Review Before the term Trance became something to be pitied, hated and despised as well as the dominant force in dance music it was seen as a creative revelation that brought the emotion back to House. The adrenaline- fuelled head-rush of rave was coming to an end, hardcore had become just too hard and the club kids were craving something new with which to get their chemical kicks. By JOHN BITTLES Trance came at just the right time to reinvigorate a dance music scene that had somehow managed to crawl up its own K-hole. This new style of music added a much needed melodic flavour to its processed beats. When combined with an almost religious spirituality that was perfect for ecstasy consumption and the hugging of complete strangers everywhere it was no surprise when it exploded the way it did. One of the very first proponents of this new sound was Berlin-based record label MFS! Masterminded For Success was formed in 1990 as a way to tap into the burgeoning electronic scene by East German label Deutsche Schallplatten Berlin. When the parent company folded a mere three years later Mark Reeder and Torsten Jurk didn’t lie down and cry. No, they very wisely took out a loan and did everything possible to ensure that the label they loved didn’t meet a premature end. All of which brings us to the rather fab X-Mix 1: The MFS Trip; a label compilation released in 1993 created to soundtrack the first in a series of computer graphic videos by video label K7.
