| Video: Chewy Chocolate Cookies mob train station Posted: 10 Apr 2009 03:21 AM PDT The Chewy Chocolate Cookies crew put together this video of them flash mobbing Liverpool St. Station in London in order to promote their new 'Apocalypse' EP. Flash mobbing is a lot of fun, as there's something strangely satisfying about raving away in a public space at an inappropriate time, but the CCC guys went one better and actually got the mob to dance in synchronicity (much to the amusement of some granny onlookers).

| Jeff Mills goes digital with Purpose Maker Posted: 09 Apr 2009 09:32 AM PDT There are few artists in techno more committed to intellectualizing the music and elevating the art than Jeff Mills, the respected Detroit DJ and producer. Along with his science fiction-inspired work with fellow Underground Resistance co-founder Mike Banks, and his forays into classical electronic exploration with the Montpellier Philharmonic Orchestra, Jeff Mills' music is as close to techno purism as one can get. We were surprised then, to learn that Jeff has decided to bring his music to the digital space - especially considering that Mills is a hardcore vinyl-only DJ that has consistently displayed the benefits of vinyl throughout his career, either through his eye-opening, three-deck mixing performances, or through his super complex, conceptual techno releases that were composed specifically for vinyl. Today Beatportal chatted with Jeff Mills to find out more. |
