FLY PROJECT - GoodBye (Fly Records Radio Edit)

Gus Gus - Arabian Horse

1999.  Gusgus in there last days in the breakbeatish era are touring Europe. There is a day off in Paris with nothing to do!  Good opportunity to ditch the singers and explore the live set, instrumental, at some Gay Club.  Includes probably the weirdest tribute to Patrick Cowley ever, called Megatron Mench. 

Released on CD as a French promotion only.

Gusgus live @ Nasa 2011.06.18.  Add this Song.  Legendary Performance including Earth drooping one of her solo songs at the tail and Högni stepping up in the bridge

Add this Song (live@Nasa 2011.06.18)

The track Deep Inside was the only track that did not emerge from the "Summer House sessions" in the winter of 2009.  The first version was done as one of many ideas for Earth's track "Why you Wanna" later to be released on Gong Ho Records.  As Earth selected some other solution to her track an instrumental version was dropped for later thoughts.  At one of Daniels visit to the studio we where searching through some demos to see if any could be of use.  We picked this one and did some further experiments with it, adding the base line for example.  Much later Högni arrived at the stage adding his bit. Here are both these version, the original instrumental and the version that came out of the "With Daniel" experiments.

Depeche Mode - Behind The Wheel (Aril Brikha Edit)

Well, well.  Nasa is soon to enter nonexistence.  No proper venue for Reykjavik then.  But while time unfolds what will come here is a recording from one of Gusgus live performances at Nasa.  This one from 2004 featuring Earth performing Daniel Agust track Desire.

Desire (Live airwaves 2004)

Some remixes are more difficult than others, in the sense that the customer has ideas and we think different.  That sometimes results in no results that leave some unfinished leftovers.  Here is one dubdrop of an remix idea that was never finished.

Gusgus performing Within You at the Besta festival the summer of 2011

Withinyou (Live @ Besta)

Remix done in the Forever period.  You can hear resemblance to the track demo 54 if you listen closely

DMS - Troja (Gusgus remix)

One of the first summerhouse demos from late 2009 that started Arabian Horse.  This idea is the first glimpse of the track Over.  I guess the next day we recorded the first draft of Daniels vocal.  Much later the the track was finished with changed cord arrangement in the chorus.

Wen doing one remix of Ladyshave in 1999, biggi veira asked Bongo to find his favorite drum and bass track and pitch it down from 45 to 33.3 to get the drums for the mix.  We then had Bongos ex girlfriend do a take on the vocal and added some synth shit.  Here is the result

Ladypunk

The period between Forever and 24/7 was the era of exploration.  Here is one exploration embedded in a remix we did for Tómar R. Einarsson.

Tomas R Einarsson - Bassachachacha (GusGus Remix)

In the year 2002, Gusgus was touring the states with the new lineup and album Attention.  One of the tracks in the set was though a cover of old Human League track called "Things that dreams are made of".  Not shure if we have any live recordings of it but here is the lave backup version we did in case of equipment breakdown.

While The Upbeats may explain their choice of album title with the humble statement “We’re not super tech geeks, we’ve always felt our approach to production is quite simple.” Anyone who knows anything about this duo’s music can tell you that the end results sound far from primitive. The cheeky-grinned New Zealanders have filled dance floors and iPod playlists around the world with their unique take on drum & bass for nearly a decade, yet their music is sounding fresher than ever; as their impressive new album is about to prove.

‘Primitive Technique’ is an album that caters to many but compromises for no one, and with techniques that may be primitive The Upbeats have crafted an album that sounds undeniably modern.

...

Tomorrow is just another day,
when I let the sunshine meet my conscience.
You told me stories, giving me new ideas.
But then only you, you know the answers.

I wait longing for you, baby.
There's no one around me, wanting me...
Cause you know, and I know, enough to understand.
I'm a warm waiting idol, above.

Yet enough that day is waiting.
Love don't mean nothing, 'cause I'm alive,
Hear me out, hear me out, I'm calling, strolling,
with an airplane ticket, and nowhere to go, nowhere to go...

BIO:
The Icelandic band Gus Gus originally spawned from a shortcut made by Siggi Kjartansson and Stefán Árni (a.k.a. Arni & Kinski) called “Pleasure”. Initially the band was acclaimed as an avant-garde collective of musicians, producers, filmmakers and performers. They mixed together different mediums to create a unique mixture of sound and vision. Their trademark style is combined with funky bass, streamlined synths and the intelligent use of technology and art. Árni & Kinski did the visual part and the musical side was driven by Birgir Þórarinsson (a.k.a. Veiran), Stephan Stephenssen (a.k.a President Bongo), Magnús Guðmundsson (a.k.a. Herb Legowitz). The live band was fronted by singers Daníel Ágúst, Hafdís Huld and Magnús Jónsson (a.k.a. Blake).

Gus Gus is an electronic soul band formed in 1995. A short break in a making of the shortcut made it possible for the first Gus Gus self-titled album to be born. In 1996 the band signed to 4AD Records that released their widely acclaimed second album “Polydistortion”. "This Is Normal" followed in 1999 and finally "Gus Gus vs T-World" appeared in 2000. During the 4AD years, Gus Gus started touring massively, stirring the music world with their powerful live-show. The touring life was stressful for the nine some and eventually called for changes within the line up. Six original members left and the three remaining producers (Veiran, President Bongo and Herb Legowitz) soon found hope in a new female singer, Earth aka Urður Hákonardóttir. The band has ever since focused on being a musical entity. 

In 2002 Gus Gus re-appeared with their 4th studio album "Attention" which includes their most successful dance floor hit “David”. On the album the band teamed up with the legendary producer Gareth Jones and Finnish multi-instrumentalist Jimi Tenor. The album demonstrates a sharply focused club-band full of creativity and even more energetic than ever. Daníel Ágúst

Gus Gus released there 8th studio album, Mexico, on Kompakt, Germany in June 2014
