Salone del mobile 2008

Hi there!!
My intention during this year's furniture fair is to provide you with some daily report.
I said it's my intention, and i hope i'll be able, at least, to make a point as often as possible, if not daily.
I'll start today with a slight report on some musical guests who will be playing during the parties planned and set by my housemates and some friends.
Yesterday evening , MSTRKRFT has arrived in town. You may have heard of Death from Above 1979, well, they're the same guys, MSTRKRFT ( pronounce Masterkraft) being their electro side project. Their style is quite close to the Justice's sound or some equivalent stuff influenced and released since the explosion of the french duo. One could say that MSTRKRFT would have deserved way more attention a couple of years ago, when they started to release their first tracks and remixes. The EdBanger's marketing and connections may have somehow erase the originality of the canadians heavy beats and angry guitars riffs, and i felt like they deserved to be advised on this blog, for I really appreciate their stuff, on the heavy metal side as well as the electro one.

They will be playing on Tuesday night for the Nike Art of Football party at the Magazzini Generali, together with Sebastien Tellier, from France, who didn't show up at the Flow Festival in Helsinki last summer, but released his Sexuality lp in february which definitely is one of the best albums of the year, and Juan McLean, from New York, whose latest ep on DFA is called Happy House and that I highly recommand to all you (vintage) house music lovers.
Needless to say that such a lineup is grandly awaited by a crowd of many.

Don't let their masks fright you, these guys are pretty cool!
