Safari vol.12 with BILK and SOME1ELSE

My first party after coming back from India. This winter has been strange so far. I was sick most of the time (except while in India) and the only occassions I went out were the parties I deejeyed at. And then straight back to bed. So, my expectations are quite high for this Safari- I want to dance and have fun - or is it too much to ask?
On the other hand, my mind is not quite here yet. All I do is sing along to Bollywood in my fake hindi instead of finding new music for my DJ set.  Sometimes jumping between such extremely opposite realities is confusing :) But it's also something I enjoy the most- finding myself at both ends...
Anyway...
Safari vol.12 presents you the awesome BILK from Croatia and SOME1ELSE as a guest DJ!
Welcome, come and play :)))))

Leto 2013 začenjamo z gostovanjem še enega vrhunskega zagrebškega benda. Po odličnem nastopu ABOP prihajajo k nam BILK, radioaktivni trio ki mojstrsko prepleta breakbeat in jungle ritme z new-wave in indie estetiko. Leta 2006 so nas navdušili z odličnim albumom "This Bilk is Radioactive" in še boljšimi živimi nastopi, letos pa v Ljubljano prihajajo pred izzidom dolgo pričakovanega novega albuma! Poleg njih bo Gromko z basi napolnil trenutno eden najzanimivejših domačih producentov, Some1Else, ki z njemu lastnimi prijemi raziskuje vznemirljivo pokrajino med hiphopom in plesno elektroniko. Za zvok in sliko bomo skrbeli N'toko, Zana, PlankTon in Koala, za odlično atmosfero pa boste, kot vedno, poskrbeli vi. Se vidimo! 

And this is our first video flyer, starring the one and only Kaji Meiko (she also appears on many of Safari's flyers and posters):

And this is BILK with their new material:

See you!

Après Garde

Here it is, Trinitron's new mini album Après Garde. Trinitron is a  'bedroom twee-Laibach, new wave, Koenji-kei, electro-pop' project that we have with Ian Martin, Kaname K and N'toko. This is our third release, the other two being 'More Real Than News' (2010) and 'Subsidence' (2011). As usual we spent three months discussing the songs and then three days writing and recording them. And by three days I mean the last three days in Tokyo before me and Miha went home. All Trinitron albums were recorded in exactly same way and powered by junk food.

Ian put it best when he described our sound: Something electronic happening with two girls talking over in funny accents.
And Miha continued with: If you're into weird new wave stuff with political/economic commentary wrapped in inside jokes, than this is the band for you.

So, the mini album is out on Call and Response Records, you can hear it on soundcloud and download it for free. Enjoy:)

Safari vol.11 with Kleemar and Helahirn

Welcome to the last Safari of the year 2012. This time we're hosting the legendary Kleemar, a well known producer from Slovenia's alter/ electronic scene. He will perform with his fresh new material, so we're all really looking forward to hearing his new stuff. 

The other guest of the night will be Helahirn, an energetic producer we saw performing recently and got very excited about. Check him out cause you're gonna hear a lot about him soon:)

Warming-up and after party, as usual, by N'toko, PlankTon and me. And the visuals will be taken care of by the one and only Koala.

See you!!!!!

Peter Giodani took some really nice photos again at Safari. The atmosphere at november's event was so good it still warms my heart when I think about it. Nina Belle made us dance us with her cool techno set and ABOP showed the audience they mean it. No joke. Dance or die:)

Thanks again to everybody who helped this night happen: VJ magician Koala, Peter for photos, people from Gromka for support and of course- thanks to everybody who came and welcomed our guests with your arms and hearts open wide :) See you next time!

Time for another Safari! This month we're presenting you ABOP from Croatia. An electronic project of artists you already know from Lollobrigida, Elemental and Pips, Čips  &Videoclips. It's going to be their fist gig in Sovenia which is another reason why you should check them out. The first one is, of course, their impressive music and visual show you can hear and see on youtube and soundcloud.

10.30. - 4.00.

3 euros

 V novemberskem Safariju se nam bo prvič odkar obstajamo pridružila tuja zasedba. Hrvaška skupina ABOP je ambiciozen elektronski projekt sedmih artistov, ki so med drugim posojali svoj talent skupinam kot so Lollobrigida, Elemental ter Pips,Čips & Videoclips, del ekipe pa sta tudi vizualec in tonski mojster. Brezkompromisni party bend nas po pristopu še najbolj spominja na zvočne hudobije belgijskih Soulwax, ABOP pa v zmes vržejo veliko mero svojega lastnega temperamenta. DJ ekipi v

postavi Zana, N'toko, PlankTon se bo tokrat s svojim odličnim izborom tehna pridružila Nina Belle, na vizualijah pa seveda ne bo manjkal Koala™.

After yesterday's amazing gig in Gromka, Praha Depart are heading to Maribor. Tonight they will play a show in Kino Udarnik, don't miss them if you're from around. Safari crew (N'toko, PlankTon and me) will take care of the after party. Check out the full schedule of the event, it's really interesting. Movies, fashion show, a concert and DJs.

Anyway, thanks again for showing up in Gromka last night, it really ment a lot to us. When you're booking your favorite band, a band that you believe in so much, you really want people to see them and to experience their beautiful music. And you also want the best experience possible for the band; an excited crowd that will acknowledge them in the way they deserve. 

Big thanks to Napravi Mi Dete for their support. You were magical as always. Powerful songs, powerful performance! Cool and fragile at the same time... Thanks thanks thanks for being a part of this show!

And for the end, thanks to our "mainstream-egos": Shanti Priya, Bravo Urška and Shampoo Guy, for showing up and providing us with mega hits nobody has ever heard before :)

No Wig- No Life!

Just before going home from Japan I modeled for a hair saloon called Createur Uchino. Their studio is on the top of this very fancy building in Omotesando, above Chanel and Bulgari. It felf funny :)

Anyway, I posed with three wigs. The blond one and the red one were nice, but I  didn't really like the blue one.  I looked too V-kei :) The staff was really friendly and professional, it was pleasant working with them.  Here are a few pics from the shooting.
