The Genesis Era

The old days that started Chrome Music and YUM YUM. More producer than consumer. Everything fresh.

Kolt 13

A word about Kolt 13 – this guy seems to be one of the up and coming producers/ remixers. All his tunes are in our crates (well laptops), some work better than others and some things have to find its yet definetly best fitting sound, but he after a handful of remixes has already a trademark sound. How many people can claim that? And his take on Empire of the Sun has climbed the hypem charts last week – which it definitely deserved, so that was good to see. Let me show some more support by posting 3 more of his tunes and establish this guy as a name with its rightful place and a constant spot on any music roundup on the webs.

Yum Yum Shanghai this week

The hardest part (for me) about organizing a party is always writing the press article, why you should come, what’s happening and where. In Shanghai promoters tend to exaggerate a bit. I don’t have to.. Same spot (MAO), same fun, more Germans deejaying this time and for the next two months my last night in town. I’m very exited.

Massive Top Friend Party this Thursday!!!

Bild 10

This Thursday its time to get down to the very first regular Top Friend Issue down @ Erste Liga with me and Dj Beware (YUM YUM Vienna/ FM4). We have had some kind of dj try outs for the time since we opened (i think 12 different djs) and now the set dj crew is established and done experimenting, some simply couldnt cut it – we’ve had a couple of nights where the djs mistook this spot for a cheap bmore club or couldn’t even play a nice warm-up, or even had the misfortune of playing during the Beerfest. Well all thats sorted now. The music policy we have in mind for T F will be displayed on the new mixtapes, which will soon come out and find its way through the webs to you – or will be handed out physically at the Party.

Djs: Me and Beware – besides both running our own YUM YUM outfits, me in Munich and him in Vienna – share a passion for all kinds of music. Come down to witness the original Top Friend sound and make this another biggie to go down, only real place to go to on a Thursday night and the only one with musical essence and backbone. Make sure to show up early or you might end up like the guys on the picture below.

Chromeo – Night By Night (Skream Remix) – another Monster version of Chromeos retro sounding disco boogie tune, courtesy of the UKs latest rising star, Skream – love the 80ies feel. Mans pushing the boundaries every which way.

For the rest of you guys playing – Rss readers do not necessarily make the music better – more options means more decisions, means better quality control. And this is where the individual counts. Wake up

“Stars” – The xx

Must be one of the nicest tunes this year an the xx is one of the discoveries this year. Here’s a video of them performing both songs accoustically in an elevator. The song are not new or anything – just thought to have it up on the site if you haven’t checked out the band yet. Crytalized by now is one of this years anthems and Stars is even more mellow and of the same caliber – love these tunes.
