Paris’ own Institube trailblazer, Surkin, has gained a lot of momentum since I saw him last. Being a while since Surkin came to Chicago, I went to his gig last year when he played with Para One, Curses! & Orgasmic over at Darkroom. Really impressive. A little over a full year later, this Friday, Surkin will be playing over at Smartbar with the Hey Champ DJs and of course, Local Hero. It’s one of two spots he’ll be hitting this weekend. On Saturday he’ll be at Poisson Rouge in New York City. Friday will be another night adding to the long line of amazing acts that have been hitting the windy city, this isn’t one that you should miss. After that MSTRKRFT show last night, all I have to say is that I love this city in the fall..
The Nacho Lovers remix is off of a Scion double cd iheartcomix project that is set to be released soon. If you’re in Miami, check out the release party on the 22nd. The Bobmo track is a newer drop on the blogs, remixed by another Institube highlight that put on one of the best (and more animated) shows this summer at Debonair. And the VHS or Beta track is an older jam, but is still easily one of my favs.

Comment by sctt October 12, 2008 @ 11:30 pmAgreed, Surkin destroyed. Post more ghettotech-influenced French stuff plz. After hearing Feadz & Surkin wreck it these last couple weeks I’m on a serious bender right now.
Comment by Mello October 13, 2008 @ 2:07 amNo, please just keep not posting that kind of crap, except if you’re posting Agoria, De Crecy, or Daft Punk and co, but all the ed banger’s stuff can be found elsewhere on the web : i’m french and i’m f*cking tired of seeing ed banger and institubes everywhere… It used to be pretty cool a year ago, now I feel like always listening the same shit on every new release
Comment by Saint Malo October 13, 2008 @ 4:40 pmAbout the mk II ep, the Blaqstarr remix is sick, way more than the laidback luke one !
For the mac/pc thing : i’m on mac, and i can’t find ableton live 7, can anyone help?
Oh and btw : hey champ = hey champ djs?
