Afterlife Returns to New York for 2019 with Ben Klock, Chris Liebing, Âme, FJAAK and Many More

/in , , , /by

One of the biggest parties at The Brooklyn Mirage last year was the Afterlife party, hosted by Tale of Us. That same party is making its return to Brooklyn and it will be returning to New York this September. The night is going to have one of the most immersive audio and visual productions to The Mirage to complement the party’s invigorating style.

The Brooklyn Mirage is a state of the art club that was recently nominated by the Winter Music Conference for the “Best Club” category. Some of the artists joining the duo this September are Chris Liebing, Âme, Ben Klock, and Fjaak; quite a hefty line-up for any techno fan.

The breathtaking, outdoor Brooklyn Mirage will provide the perfect space for Afterlife heads Tale Of Us to hold court with their uniquely transcendent techno. Scheduled in The Great Hall, Klockworks icon Ben Klock plays alongside pioneering techno artist Chris Liebing, the striking sounds of FJAAK and Courtesy, deep techno from Etapp Kyle and Vaal’s distinctive take on the style.

Plusyes and Tirador are set to curate the visuals in the Brooklyn Mirage and Great Hall respectively. Additionally, in the Brooklyn Mirage, there will be a special, interactive performance between Tale Of Us and the singular work of acclaimed, contemporary visual artist Quayola, elevating the music to another dimension.

Tale Of Us continueto push the boundaries of Afterlife with their intoxicating style, only improving the entity they have created. We look forward to seeing what’s behind the “Gate to the Unknown” come September.

In Interview with Recondite

/in , /by

Next Saturday, May 11th, The Cityfox Experience event purveyors will be presenting Regenerate at the Brooklyn Mirage with Recondite (live), Adriatique, Hot Since 82, Monolink (Live), Anja Schneider and more scheduled to perform.

A longtime collector of music, Recondite had his first experience with drum machines and synthesizers just a few years ago in a small studio right next to the forest in Lower Bavaria. It wasn’t long after that he moved to Berlin to build up Plangent Records, where the artist rapidly established his name. “Plangent #001” was well-received, and with three strong EPs released in 2011, he grabbed the attention of Scuba, who included “Backbone” in his DJ KiCKS mix and quickly put out two Recondite remixes on Hot Flush.

“On Acid”, his full-length debut, was delivered in 2012 via the sleek Los Angeles imprint Acid Test. The Absurd Recordings sublabel had already featured revered releases from Donato Dozzy and Tin Man, and Recondite’s LP garnered a great deal of positive feedback from the press and major producers alike. Continuing to release on his own Plangent series, he also put out the “EC10 EP” on Dystopian in early 2013 – a record that’s as tough as it is experimental. Progressively, this all lead up to his sophomore LP and first release on Ghostly International, “Hinterland”.

The record acknowledges the finest moments in his previous releases, and ultimately creates what he believes is something that captures the personality of Rottal-Inn – a district in southeastern Bavaria, Germany and his hometown. The rest of Recondite’s career is well known, including releases on Innervisions, Afterlife as well as what are now some of his biggest label mainstays: Dystopian, Hotflush Recordings and, of course, his very own Plangent Records.

We took the opportunity to chat with Recondite about his recent releases, his upcoming album and, of course, the upcoming gig in New York City, for which you can find tickets HERE.
