The Chase is proud to present straight from the Sub Club , Glasgow JG Wilkes of Optimo Espacio. Come join us for our one year anniversary as we host the only night in Los Angeles for this OPTIMO Tour. JG Wilkes will be throwing down a two Hour all vinyl set. This will be a night not to be missed. Live performances upstairs by Love Grenades and Panthere.

Free giveaways and photos provided by: PUMA

Along with JD Twitch, Belfast Playboy Mr JG Wilkes formed the phenomenon that is Optimo (espacio), to be found at the Sub Club in Glasgow on Sunday nights. The best description of the sub-club, and the nature of the night, is through the origin of the name. "Optimo" is a song (released in 1983) by Liquid Liquid. The historical and cultural origins of Liquid Liquid would provide the inspiration for the ethos of the club; a return to the spirit of early 80's New York where many nascent scenes were emerging (hip hop, punk, no-wave, disco, gay, straight, art) all separate from each other but all united in a totally open attitude to experimentation and unequivocal challenge to creative boundaries or conventions.
JG Wilkes dj's from vinyl, incorporating cross genre records with the common thread of a real groove - be it disco, reggae, shuffle, wonky rock'n'roll or primitive electronica, and when he plays there is only one place you want to be: on your feet dancing. As well as djing around the world, Wilkes produces and remixes at his own studio, Hottrax in Glasgow. Working with his studio partner, James Savage under the name " Naum" they have made various releases with Kompakt Records (Cologne) and produced remixes as "Naum Gabo" for many artists including Hot Chip, Franz Ferdinand, The Lotterboys, The Switches, Snow Patrol, Sons and Daughters, Archie Bronson Outfit and Midnight Mike.

"We love your ears'

Love Grenades is a Los Angeles based act, created by singer/songwriter Liz Wight. After becoming a finalist here in the first Music Nation competition, the music video for "Young Lovers" won the Best Music Video Award at the 32nd Annual New England Film and Video Festival, won Best Song in a Music Video at the No Exit Music Video Festival in New York and is up for an award at the California Independent Film Festival. The video was also on the BIG SCREEN in Los Angeles at the DGA theater, for the VC Film Festival. It was featured in FILTER Magazine and GenART. Video directed by Steve Lee.

Panthère is the sound track for the day after tomorrow. The vision of Jean Marc Virard also known as JMV and Rob English (both also from the band DE SIGNER), this is the album you listen to when the next "Towers" fall or the "God's" return. Combining the dark energy of Joy Division with the sound waves of Suicide they've created a special release project that resonates with the post-punk classics. Stripped down with no ornaments the Panthère mode is simple and hypnotizing. Smashing atoms and making grilled cheese sandwiches in alternate realties. Reminding music lovers of every species that eventually we'll all have to "pass the beat". In the darkness of a hopeless dawn you will find a radio begging you to wipe away the blood and dance. It will be playing Fire In The Sky.

2009-02-25T23:53:00.000-08:00

I found this when I YouTubed "Designersruletheworld".
Judging by this video, "The Rush" is apparently a great song to promote a website, reveal new dance moves, showcase flexibility on a gym ball, and tell the world a little bit more about yourself.

This was entertaining and I wanted the world to see Kristaan feel the rush (thank you!).
I'm still not sure as to who the Staanyloco is though...

LUCIFER RISING

2009-01-24T03:16:00.000-08:00

33 Film Stills from Kenneth Anger's 1981 film Lucifer Rising (though I believe the footage is from much earlier) This film creates a most lovely sense of mysticism and enchantment. The first shots of Isis are incredibly powerful images and masterful personification/evocation of life. Marrianne Faithful plays Lilic. The only other film I've seen Faithful in is "Girl on a Motorcyle" or something like that. I like her. Bobby Beausoleil [check out the prison tattoos] did the Soundtrack. Probably the most beautiful piece of soundwork for a
film I've ever heard. I plan to record it and upload it. Here are the stills...Oh, go see the movie Milk if you were thinking about it. My lady and I saw it the other night. It was quite good. Ok, Here are the stills: (the rest will be up tomorrow)

"...I TRULY BELIEVE THAT OUR DUTY AS AN ARCHITECT OR A DESIGNER IS TO DESIGN THINGS WHICH ATTRACT LUCK, ROOMS WHICH PROTECT PEOPLE... I DON’T DESIGN THINGS IN ANY STYLE, EVEN LESS SO IN ANY FASHION STYLE, I DESIGN THINGS FOR LIFE STATES."

"...THERE IS NOTHING SPIRITUAL IN SPIRITUALITY.
THE WORD SPIRITUALITY WAS INVENTED IN THE 19TH CENTURY. I HATE THAT WORD...
IT IS FINDING A WAY TO FORGET THE EXISTENTIAL DISASTER, IT IS A SERIES OF RITUALS,
WHICH CORRESPOND TO THE COSMOS AND THEY ARE RITUALS WHICH
DEPEND ON YOUR SOCIAL CLASS, THE WEATHER,
THE RELATIONSHIP TO ANIMALS-- THIS INTERESTS ME. I THINK THAT ANY ATTEMPT
TO INTEGRATE INTO THE MODERN WORLD CAN ONLY BE "PAY ATTENTION TO LIFE",
EXISTENCE, BUT NOT AFTERLIFE."

"...I THINK THAT THE FUTURE DOESN’T EXIST. WHAT WE THINK OF TODAY AS THE FUTURE ISN’T THE FUTURE.
PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS AFRAID OF THE FUTURE, AND THE FUTURE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A DISASTER.
LIKE THE PRESENT IS A DISASTER. BUT RHETORIC ABOUT THE FUTURE BOTHERS ME,
BECAUSE ALMOST EVERYTHING WE DO TODAY WE SAY WE’RE DOING FOR THE FUTURE.
THE FUTURE IS HERE NOW, LET’S TRY TO GET ORGANIZED NOW.
I DON’T CARE ABOUT THE FUTURE AT ALL."

Le Palais de Tokyo est l'un de mes spots favoris lorsque je rentre a Paris pour jouer ou rendre visite a la famille. Voila le nouveau numero du magazine du Palais, je vous le conseil si vous ne le connaissez pas.
The Palais de Tokyo is one of my fave spots when i get back to Paris to perform shows or just to go back to visit my fam there. Here is the new issue of Palais their magazine. I highly recommend it, if you didn't know about it.

magazine 08 - printemps 2009 / spring 2009
sortie le 12 février 2009 / Out on February 12, 2009

Quelques maisons, une station service, un bureau de poste, deux diners... Et une base scientifique énigmatique. Gakona, petit village au centre de l'Alaska, abrite le programme de recherche américain H.A.A.R.P. (High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program). Inspirés par les travaux de l'inventeur Nikola Tesla, des chercheurs y étudieraient la transmission de l'électricité dans les hautes couches de l'atmosphère. Mais, en raison de son financement militaire et des peurs liées à l'électromagnétisme, H.A.A.R.P. est aussi devenu une source intarissable de rumeurs. Dérèglement climatique, influence sur les comportements humains… On prête à cette forêt d'antennes des pouvoirs dignes de la science-fiction. Constituée de quatre expositions personnelles (Micol Assaël, Ceal Floyer, Laurent Grasso et Roman Signer), la session GAKONA se situe à la croisée du fait et de la rumeur, du réel et du fantasme, de la science et de l'imaginaire. Présentant des œuvres qui échappent à toute velléité d'interprétation figée, elle poursuit ainsi la volonté du Palais de Tokyo de promouvoir une dynamique du regard et de l'esprit, fondée sur une oscillation permanente entre pôles opposés.
Ce numéro du magazine PALAIS / est construit autour de l'exposition GAKONA avec : une nouvelle de Cory Doctorow autour de Nikola Tesla, une interview de Laurent Grasso par Marc-Olivier Wahler, deux portfolios (Ceal Floyer, Roman Signer), des documents d'archive sur Alexander Chizhevsky (sélectionnés par Micol Assaël), des expériences inattendues sous haute tension, ainsi qu'un guide complet de l'exposition.
A few houses, a service station, a post office, a couple of diners... and a mysterious scientific research base. Gakona, a small village in the center of Alaska, is home to the American H.A.A.R.P. research program (High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program). Inspired by the works of the inventor Nikola Tesla, it is believed that researchers there are studying the transmission of electricity in the high strata of the atmosphere. But because of its military funding and the fears associated with electromagnetism, H.A.A.R.P. has also become an inexhaustible source of rumors. From climatic disruption to influence over human behavior, this forest of antennas has been credited with powers worthy of science fiction. Made up of four solo exhibitions (Micol Assaël, Ceal Floyer, Laurent Grasso and Roman Signer), the GAKONA session lies at the intersection of fact and rumor, reality and phantasm, science and imagination. Presenting works that elude any suggestion of a fixed interpretation, it thus pursues the Palais de Tokyo’s intention of promoting a dynamics of looking and thinking, based on a permanent oscillation between opposite poles.
This issue of the magazine PALAIS / is edited and designed around the GAKONA exhibition, a Nikola Tesla short story by Cory Doctorow, an interview of Laurent Grasso by Marc-Olivier Wahler, two portfolios (Ceal Floyer, Roman Signer), archive documents about Alexander Chizhevsky (selected by Micol Assaël), unexpected experiments with high-voltage current, and also a guide section.
