New York, NY (www.scbentertainment.com) - Techno is apparently alive and well in NYC. This past Friday night the Robots final party at Cafe Deville went out with a sizzle and bang. Quite literally, a * bang * and a bit of smoke, as the speakers blew mid-party. After some technical patches, the party resumed and it was quite the memorable send-off with Nick AC,
Dennis Rodgers, DJ Three and Plexus on DJ duty. Moving forward, as the Robots end their weekly Fridays, there's always The Bunker with stellar bookings,
Rebel (formerly Downtime), and now even crobar joins the Techno Friday foray. It seems
Eminem was wrong after all...
The Bunker continues on with its Fridays at subTonic series with a special live PA from Bruno Pronsato (Orac, Telegraph, Musique Risquee | Seattle) with resident DJs Spinoza, Derek Plaslaiko, Movement.
Over the past two years, Seattle producer Bruno Pronsato has taken several giant steps toward the peak of the experimental techno mountain. A sound scientist whose work is equally playful and rigorous, Pronsato deploys a canny use of space and idiosyncratically fashioned rhythms to disorient and build suspense-like some 21st-century Miles Davis or Eric Dolphy of the laptop. Despite being a minimal-techno artist, Pronsato offers a palette that's as full of unexpected patterns and meticulously rendered textures as a Kandinsky painting. Pronsato's compositions unsettle in original ways, yet they also slyly tickle funnybones. Often both humorous and erotic, his cuts are the wild cards that adventurous DJs pull out when they want to take the dance floor to strange new levels of motion. Therefore, Pronsato's releases have become elite selectors' secret weapons of beguilingly baffling quirkiness that still move asses. The Bunker is proud to welcome one of our favorite artists for his debut NYC appearance.
