USED + ABUSED RADIO SHOW #14 - ANTHEA

Loco Dice presents the final episode of this years USED+ABUSED RADIO SHOW season with special guest MARTIN BUTTRICH.

USED + ABUSED RADIO SHOW #17 - MARTIN BUTTRICH

My first release from back in 2002! I wrote the lyrics, but they sounded too American, so I had a UK homie give 'em dat Brit flavor. Timo Maas scooped it up for his Four:Twenty label. It’s been a wild ride ever since.

Loco Dice - "Phat Dope Shit" (Four:Twenty Recordings)

My first big record on a well known and influential label. I gave the music to @Josh Wink and it took him one year to release it, which was pretty normal back in the day. 

“Menina Brasileira” came after I watched a wack movie with Penelope Cruz, ate something wrong and had a bad night’s sleep. The next day I went to the studio with the idea to produce a deep house track. Not a cliché deep house track, but to capture a deep house vibe in a non-deep house track. 

Just listen to the vocal on the flip, “Jacuzzi Games,” and you can imagine the scenario.

Thank you Josh and Matt!

Loco Dice - Menina Brasilera (Ovum)

I first gave to “Seeing Through Shadows” @Ricardo Villalobos. He was the only guy who was able to play crazy stuff. Please keep in mind, that this sound was not big at that time, and Ricardo was really far out. 

We were at the Dance Valley Festival, playing the Circoloco stage. Ricardo came to me during his set and said: “I’m going to play your track! Watch @Richie Hawtin’s face!“ He played the tune, and after first chords I saw Rich go to Ricardo. I didn’t really know him at that time. I just saw Ricardo laughing and pointing at me.

The following conversation between Rich and I: 

“Your track?“
“Yes“
“Free“
“Yes“
“Can I have it?“
“Yes“
“Deal“

It was so easy back then.

Loco Dice - Seeing Through Shadows (Minus)

The main element on “Carthago” is the Moog. It was a new approach, influenced by the new kind of sound that was slowly taking over. Minimal was on its way to dominate the dance scene in the coming years, but I didn’t consider myself minimal. The new sound, focus on particular machines for main elements of the tracks. That approach felt somehow German and old school, and the result had to be released on an old school German label.  Thank you Sven and the team!

Loco Dice - Carthago (Cocoon)

Surging in global demand and continuing to impress both within the studio and beyond the decks, Danish/Filipino DJ/producer and label owner Manda Moor and her groove-infused house sound have been making waves of late. With her stand-out single ‘Picante’ still featured heavily in rotation for an endless list of key names, and with her own Mood Child imprint thriving, the next step in Moor’s growing journey is a bold entrance and a big label debut on Loco Dice’s SB Recordings as she serves up her latest single, ‘KarateCat’.
“I wanted to reveal a different facet of my musical persona. By creating a high-energy tune, I drew inspiration from Dice's vibe and hip-hop influences, infusing it with my own spice.” - Manda Moor.
Packed full of vigour and bringing yet more shades of her vibrant and punchy trademark sound, ‘KarateCat’ is an all-action affair from the off as skippy percussion, warping vocal iterations, piercing stabs and bumping bass licks take hold for a sizzling terrace affair, before Dice’s no-nonsense interpretation of the track sees the label head honcho toughen things up with heavy-kitting kicks while adding to the low-ends with a carnival-infused bedlam of energy to close the show.
Manda Moor ‘KarateCat’ EP drops via SB Recordings on 10th May 2024.

Bang! Here's my new album for u!

It’s been 7 years since "7 Dunham Place“ - my first electronic album. An artist album isn't just a compilation of club tracks. It’s a concept that allows experiments, that opens up spaces for narratives, and allows the artist to go really far. At least that is the way I see it. I put everything into it, it was all or nothing. Martin Buttrich and I packed our studio and moved to Brooklyn in 2006. That album is a musical document of my time in and experience of Brooklyn, it sums up a period of my life, and for me it was a natural conclusion.

After "7 Dunham Place" there weren’t enough stories for an album. I was in the mood for straight, banging club tracks - for singles. I’d say that my "Toxic" EP from 2012 marks the end of that period. It was the time when I built my studio in Düsseldorf, and loose stories and ideas slowly intensified and condensed.

We invited guests to jam with us, rock the drum machines, synths and old, raw gear with us. Guti, Miguel de Ipola, Kobe aka Pimp Jackson, Chevy, my old hip-hop crew with whom I used to share stinky hotel rooms and tour buses in 1995. All the dots connected. What was meant to be warm-up sessions with guests, instantly became the sound I was looking for and the soundtracks to these new scenarios.

Then the features came...

There are strong bonds with all artists involved and everything unfolded naturally. I danced to Neneh Cherry's music when I was hip-hop kid, and I still do. Pulshar is one of my favorite bands who's two albums we released on my label Desolat Music Group. With Just Blaze, it was like two hip-hop guys working on something completely different, something harder, and it instantly worked. Jaw is not only that crazy guy who shares Tunisian roots with me, but his voice is special and fitted perfectly. Behind Mr. Techno there is Chris Liebing, super warm and funny guy with whom I share a lot, but whose artistic expression is quite different than mine, so here the opposites collide. Miss Kittin is a long time friend, and it was only her who could have completed that one song. Last but not least there is Giggs. You can’t ignore him if you look out of the US hip-hop box. He is unique. When I met him in London and played him the album, he was totally diggin’ it, he understood where I wanted to go with it, and I had him on board.

There have been so many changes around me since my first album that has become the narrative for "Underground Sound Suicide", and in a way I used music as a transmitter. It comes from the heart and is a testimony of who I am now.

Ultra Music's got my back on this one and the album will be going through the team there. They believe in it, and I'm happy to have them on board. Also here paths are crossing again. David Waxman from Ultra and I know each other since my early gigs in NYC in the early 2000s. Now we write this exciting new chapter together.

Here's a small sample of what to expect! Keep up with me, I'll be dropping more details in the coming weeks.

One love.

The South African phenomenon Black Coffee has become well known in recent years due to his impeccable blend of house, infused with African culture and vibes. In 2012, ‘Buya’ was released featuring the stunning vocalist Yoshi.  The track went platinum in Africa in 2 months, bringing Black Coffee into the international spotlight. Now, Get Physical has taken the reigns and handed the track over to Loco Dice, M.A.N.D.Y. and Da Cappo for their remix wizardry.  

Loco Dice who has African roots spends his proceeds of the EP for the development of the new website, and the donation campaign for the Kliptown Youth Centre in Soweto, South Africa, a non-profit project that provides hope through tutoring, athletic, music and arts programs.  The returns will go to helping the heroes of the Kliptown Youth Center in Soweto, South Africa, giving kids a chance to create and express themselves whereas they might not have had that chance before. The youth is our future, and right now they need our help and support.
