Dirtyoldman and I have been bringing the chop back to the clubs the last month, playing as the banging electro duo “dirtyoldDisco”! It has been totally awesome to see how our hard hitting style of electro gets the floor asking for more! I’ve put up some photos from the last three shows we played. Thanks to all the people that took them, you know who you are

Photos after the jump!
After a hell of a lot of organising and pulling last minute miracles we threw a great Viral Session in Pretoria… Destrukto, Cutout Collective, dirtyoldDisco… awesome!

Some of the gang that joined!

Dropping the chop!

We played a cute little opener set at the Toxic Avenger gig, then got to drop a banger after the Team Uncool DJ set a bit later as well…Muckleneuk Massiv!

Representing as they say…

In the mix…

Classic chop…

The following week we got to play another opening set at Kitchener’s Carvery for the launch of Mtkidu‘s “Shakawon” album. The opener wasn’t our classic awesome style but it was ok, we got some nods. After Mtkidu did their thing we closed off the night classic doD styleZ and dropped it hard… we were applauded.

The shows were all awesome, the other DJ’s brought it, we brought it, it was great. Come to our next show. I’ll high five you. One time.

^5!

Friday night I headed off to The Woods to grab a live set from Mtkidu. The Woods is a cool venue but damn, why can’t they open up the seating area? When it is so packed, all you do is get bumped around the whole time and it ends up being a bit lame. Apart from that, Mtkidu played a killer set… I love their new material and can’t friggin’ wait for their up and coming album release! Grab some of their tracks free from electrotrash!

Read all about the last few days – recording, Lotus, birthdays – all after the jump!

MtKidu being Kool Kids!

Saturday was a chilled out one… I stepped into the studio with good buddies Liberty Valance to add my voice to some gang vocals they were recording. They are recording a few tracks for a demo, so I will link to the tracks asap for you all to hear! The tracks are sounding epic, punk-hardcore sort of stuff… give them some love (and listen to an older recording) on their Facebook Fanpage here!

The rest of the afternoon was spent chilling, some Vida E, some Entourage and much later some drinks at good ‘ol players. Sundays was also super relaxed, being the first day I have been able to sleep in on for ages… In the evening grabbing some sushi at Lotus Thai… FANTASTIC sushi + some great wine… Good times!

Monday saw a long day at work and then we headed off to Tings to celebrate Warrens birthday… Jackhammer (?) played as well. With those law kids, it’s always a party! Some photos below

On a side note, I added mobile phone support for my blog, so if you are on your phone, don’t be scared to hit up rickdisco.com… It will all render properly and be nice and small for whatever phone you are using!

Thats all for now…

Take it easy
^5!
