A Stacked Schedule

Posted on by

With so much going on at the moment, we thought it was about time we let you know what we have coming up over the next month or more. there’s plenty to pick through, so take your time.

Automation Premiere

Since launching late last year, shiny new Internet radio station The Backyard Project has wasted no time in staking claim to eager ears across the web from it’s home base in Perth (WA Australia). Streaming live to your computer – or portable device – twenty four seven, you can’t help but wonder how station management are able to squeeze in any sleep between shows. Relentless.

However they do it, we’re proud to announce the latest addition to The Backyard Project’s ever increasing arsenal of sound : Automation.

Automation brings a monthly dose of live production and original electronic music to your earholes no matter where in the world you might be located. Promising a live production set from a different artist each month – plus a smattering of original tunes from local producers – tune in to the sharp end of the Perth original electronic music scene and hear what’s going down.

The Automation Premiere airs this Sunday 12 February 2012 from 10pm Western Standard Time, and to kick the ball well into the middle of next month, the debut broadcast features previously unheard original sets from each of the two presenters: DXU and Lo-Key Fu. It’s completely coincidental that their names rhyme.

Following the premiere, Automation airs on the third Thursday of every month from 9pm to 10pm at www.thebackyardproject.com.au. Tune in.

Lo-Key Fu Unearthed

Also on the Internet radio tip, Lo-Key Fu recently added a profile to the Triple J Unearthed website. Sporting a live recorded version of the track Razorwire from his spanking new set, you can head over to the Lo-Key Fu Unearthed Profile to sign up and grab yourself a free copy. If you grab the download, feel free to leave your thoughts in the review section and let us know what you think. Easy.

FreQualizer Presents Hedflux

With the weeks flying by faster than we can count the degrees on our thermometer, we thought reminding you about the FreQualizer presents Hedflux show at Geisha Bar (Northbridge WA Australia) would be a good idea. If you missed the earlier post with all the details, you can get everything you need to know right over here. Tickets are moving fast so jump on this one fast if you’re keen to head down.

Box Set Records Remix

With his live set calling shotgun for the last few months, we’re happy to confirm that Lo-Key Fu has been enlisted to remix the latest offering from Perth artist Growler. The track is titled Head Stereo, and the release will be available through Box Set Records early this year. Stay tuned for more information closer to the date, but for now you can taste a teaser of the original mix over on Box Set Records Soundcloud Profile. Tasty.

House Of Fu Website Updates

And finally, if you’ve been visiting over the last few weeks, you may have noticed some changes in the works here at House Of Fu. We’ve moved our site over to  www.houseoffu.com, changed our blogging platform, and are steadily working our way through a number of other improvements. At this stage however there’s still plenty to be done, so please bear with us if you notice any glitches, bugs or untoward pixels on your travels. We’ll do our best to get everything running seamlessly again for you very soon.

Until next time.

Seriously Sound System 2011

Posted on by
With Broken Technology pulling out all the stops for a smashingly successful launch last month, there’s plenty of good reason to dish out credit where it’s due. From here however, it’s full steam ahead into the loosely controlled madness that is the Southern Hemisphere’s summer festival season, and what better way to kick things off than with RTR FMs flagship summer dance and electronic music festival?

With a monster lineup bigger than twenty or more really big things all joined together and fed to an even bigger thing as a high protein dietary supplement, there’ll be something for all breed of electronic music lover at Seriously Sound System this year.

DnB stalwarts Greg Packer and MC Assassin hit the stage together fresh off the back of their latest release: Silent Rain; Lo-Key Fu brings yet another fistful of his all original, dangerously live slamming breakbeat; Cosmo Gets promise a hearty helping of raw beats and improvised funk jam… and that’s just three of the twenty plus acts on show. 

So gather your crew together and start making some suitably cunning plans for 17 December 2011 as there’s little over a week to go, and time seems to fly past a lot quicker around this time of year. Full details – including ticketing & lineup information – can be found over at the Events section of the RTR FM website. Get amongst it!
