Don't miss
this rareopportunity to catch one of the world's truly amazing, innovative and
utterly ass-kicking DJs
What’s Rupture sound like? A border-crossing bass visionary.
His dynamic
live sets simultaneously partyrock and suggest complex political
undertones.
Download his highly-influential Gold Teeth Thief mix from
2001.
A four-star review in VIBE Magazine praised it as a “stunning,
globe-trotting, three-turntable mix” that “captures the spirit of the best
bootleg mixes–bumping, brash, and without borders.
”
You won’t find another musician as agile and reckless as DJ /rupture.
He’s
performed in over 25 countries, released records on Soul Jazz &
Tigerbeat6, DJ’ed in a band with Norah Jones, done two John Peel Sessions,
and was turntable soloist with the 80-member Barcelona Symphony Orchestra.
Rupture’s fans include Robert Plant and that hot person you saw on the
street yesterday but were afraid to talk to.
Each Wednesday evening from 7-8pm, Rupture hosts a radio show on NYC-area
FM station WFMU, featuring lots of international exclusives and live
guests. You can listen online & stream the archives.
Rupture’s show is
re-broadcast weekly on local FM stations in Belgium, Croatia, France.
Rupture also runs Soot Records, an independent label with impeccable
curation, dedicated to international urban music.
Rupture plays in a band
called Nettle — violin, cello, electronics, banjo, guembri, voice.
Rupture
does duo performances with guitarist Andy Moor (The Ex).
Both projects
will release albums in 2008.
Matt Shadetek & Rupture joined forces in 2008
to create Dutty Artz. DA is a tropical multimedia storm.
