Dirty Deal Audio session – closing event for Liepaja Art Forum @ Great Amber concert hall (30.09.2018)

We have the honor to organize the closing event for Liepaja Art Forum 2018! Location: Great Amber concert hall, time: 30. September, Sunday.

The event will highlight some of the most outstanding (in our opinion) electronic music projects from Latvia. In the course of the evening, live performances will feature different dance music mutations and experiments with sound, as well as more classical forms of electronic music.

This was not an easy task to choose seven musicians for the event, as we do have much more great forward thinking musicians out there in our small country. Here is our pick and the plan for the 30. sept. evening:

DDA Seanss @ Great Amber concert hall (Radio street 8)

Details about the evening:

Starting from 18:30 in Civita Nova Art Room, the artist Figūras, or Kaspars Groševs, will warm up the crowd with abstract sci-fi electronic music. ELVI follows with their concert programme MAXIMUM.TOUCH, created by using only the vocal samples from the R&B music of the 90s and early 2000s. The demonstration cycle will be closed by Ωtek’s techno concert, composed in a skillful manner.

Starting from 20:00, the Great Hall will start its electronic program, made up of four different musical acts. A concert of harmonious ambient music will be performed by composer and artist Sign Libra, or Agata Meļņikova. In addition, a performance rich of bass and neat guitar parts will be given by PRAGAII - a duet, consisting of Kashuks, electronic music producer, and Aleksis Luriņš, a multi-instrumentalist and guitar virtuoso of the new generation. A heavier techno shower will be sprayed by KODEK, one of the most prominent standard-bearers of electronic music in Latvia, using the local modular synthesizer systems Erica Synths. Finally, a concert of apocalyptic and futuristic extra-terrestrial music will be performed by the sound artist N1L. Background video assistant in the Great Hall - video artist INA VARE. Hosted by ansis, a living legend and a representative of Dirty Deal Audio, and Labais Dāma, the general at music publishing house No Sex Just Talk.

N1L "山卂ㄒ乇尺 爪乇爪ㄖ尺ㄚ" EP via "Opal Tapes" (audio cassette + digital)

N1L aka Mārtiņš Roķis, with help of Opal Tapes record label, brings us another hi-end horror story – seven track journey named “Water Memory” EP! Releaase date June 7, 2018 Here’s what Opal Tapes writes about the EP: “Seven chapters of anachronistic, lovecraftian horror & burning cold alien limerence brought forth through the advanced cauldron skills of N1L. Vast, devastated terrain is covered here, burned down in psycho action-movie montages of tuned percussion and pacing, predating bass music. Viperous snatches of melody, of disembodied voice and the promise of calm rise through in tracks like “fernweh I,II,III” while dread-nought dub treads on for “ijsv.0gel”. N1L dials up the INA-GRM gone Hammer Horror in the remarkable compositions of the closing 8 minutes. A maelstrom of pure, refined sound recalling Dhomont and Bayle at their most negative. Utterly enthralling and resolutely unflinching.  Stay alert while sleepwalking.“ Listen and buy the cassette here:
