FEATER – TIME MILLION (VILLALOBOS REMIX)

Posted on 2019-05-13

Remix extravaganza ahead! What started as an attempt to transport Feater’s brillant outsider pop “Time Millionaire” (taken from the Socialo Blanco album) onto a dance floor with one or two remixes, ended up as a feast served on three different platters with some heavy hitters. First up, Pépé Bradock and Ricardo Villalobos are crossing their beams. Spread over two 12″s, the masters of idiosyncrasies and splendid aural design, Bradock and Villalobos treat the voice of Vilja Larjosto with love and care and bring it into their respective universe during peak time: vocals, dubs, acapellas and bonus bits included. Expertly, tricky and inventive.

MA

Posted on 2019-05-13

Octavia Spencer stars as Sue Ann, a loner who keeps to herself in her quiet Ohio town. One day, she is asked by Maggie, a new teenager in town (Diana Silvers, Glass), to buy some booze for her and her friends, and Sue Ann sees the chance to make some unsuspecting, if younger, friends of her own.

She offers the kids the chance to avoid drinking and driving by hanging out in the basement of her home. But there are some house rules: One of the kids has to stay sober. Don’t curse. Never go upstairs. And call her “Ma.”

But as Ma’s hospitality starts to curdle into obsession, what began as a teenage dream turns into a terrorizing nightmare, and Ma’s place goes from the best place in town to the worst place on earth.

DANCING IN PECKHAM

Posted on 2019-05-13

Beginning with works drawing on club culture from the late 1980s, Marie Barrett’s work Dance – State (1989), made in collaboration with young people in Derry at the height of the Troubles, was first screened in the local nightclub Squires after Barrett realised the two most visited places in the city were the nightclub and the job centre, before it went on to be shown at the Hacienda in Manchester. Amar Ediriwira’s The Final Night in Paradise (2017) uses archival footage from the closing party of Paradise Garage in 1987, a legendary New York nightclub. Featuring a soundtrack by DJ Harvey, the work reveals a voyeuristic window into the club, with appearances from Keith Haring, Larry Levan, Gwen Guthrie, Liz Torres and a young ESG.
Moving into the contemporary influence of dance spaces, Bernice Mulenga’s #friendsonfilm amplifies the experiences of their peers, often within the club setting. The photo series uses afro-documentary to capture club collectives including BBZ, Pxssy Palace and Aboe, which centre black and queer bodies on the dancefloor and in the DJ booth.
