 New York, NY. (Top40 Charts/ Groove Attack) - This Thursday, the Cheeky B*stards at GBH get all techno. I guess they heard everybody's doing it these days! They're teaming up with Biatchcorp to bring you an evening with the excellent Germany's Gregor Tresher - who is sporting his NYC debut. Gregor was nominated 'Best Techno Artist' by Beatport.com for their music awards; and he's an amazing DJ. Joining him will be some of the leading lights from Manhattan's Techno scene and some of our faves - Derek Plaslaiko of the Bunker parties and fine label Spectral, plus Karraskilla, Giovanni and Pito of BiatchCorp. Alex English will also be DJing. Our friends at GBH have also provided a free MP3 download of Gregor Tresher - "Black Rain" (Gregor Tresher Remix) We were glad to give you that Gregor Tresher freebie last week, as it's a great example of how well Tresher's fused the melodic and colorful sides of techno, house, and minimal. But something nagged at us. We didn't give you something that had a real beat to it. And after all, it's not like the man has no interest in percussion. Exhibit A awaits you here; the man himself takes the opening track off his much-lauded A Thousand Nights album and turns off all the lights, leaving you with only a steady beat and an engrossing collection of blips, ticks, and hisses to guide you. Get excited: he's coming this Thursday.
