But seriously I ♥ Joakim Joakim is a French DJ touring Australia for the second time this year celebrating his label, Tiger Sushi's 10th anniversary. That tour makes it little ol' way down to Barsoma this Saturday night, so it you don't mind missing Riverfire (HAHAHAHA!), then maybe you'd consider it. [...]

France's own Mr. Joakim Bouaziz , the king of the Tigersushi label (which is celebrating its 10th anniversary) is no stranger to the Waves at Night world. You may not have known we interviewed back in 2008 when he was just about to embark on his Australian tour. And now we are ready to do it all over again... New Gurnica and us (the blog of course) are proud to present you the Melbourne leg of the tour, taking place this Friday the 3rd [...]

I remember hearing this track for the first time on a Ewan Pearson mix 4 or 5 years ago. At the time, we were generally listening to rumbling techno, nibbling our lips and kicking our jaws around. Its still just as refreshing now as it was back then. Awesome awesome awesome track. Download audio file (aminjig_nebere_joakim.mp3) Clashing ego's - Aminjig nebere (Joakim's Afrobot mix)

The time has finally came, WMC is here and like a whooping crane during spring, I'm heading down south of the south..so here's 9ine amazing songs that will have to satisfy you until my return. MIA or BUST! [See post to stream audio] LMFA0 - Im In Miami Bitch (Teh Interweb Kidz Remix) (direct download) I highly recommend all of these, nothing too heavy...but purely amazing! A remix of Tiga, way different than every other remix and the original, not saying it's better than the original. You can't even compare it actually. [...]
'Lounge' was vroeger in. Het werkt nog steeds als achtergrond deuntje in een koffiezaak, tijdens het maken van een werkstuk of tijdens een langzaam potje seks of als pauze tussen beukende muziek waar het alleen maar gaat om de bass. Hier echter geen Cafe Del Mar shit en Air en Boards of Canada kennen we nou wel: Clashing Ego's . Uit Eindhoven(!). Dit liedje steekt met kop en schouders boven de rest van hun album Rubicon uit: Aminjig Nebere (I trusted you) [Audio clip: view full post to listen] Lali [...]

C'est pas facile de se motiver pour acheter une compil' à la base, une de remixes c'est encore plus chaud : ça s'écoute pas comme un album, tu peux facilement n'en aimer qu'une partie, trouver les autres à chier et au final ne jamais sortir le cd de ta discothèque (*insérer ici une remarque pompeuse en rapport avec le nombre d'items qui la compose*). Donc, est-ce que ça vaut le coup d'acheter le CD des meilleurs (et c'est lui qui le dit) remixes de Joakim (wilde) ? Bah vu que c'est pas la joie(kim*) d'acheter les 123 [...]

All too often the remix is used as a way of bulking out a mediocre release, or as a cynical marketing tool, pulling in audiences from other musical genres. There are few producers who have achieved the level of remix craftsmanship that Joakim has, yet he's still a less commercially viable prospect for a remix then almost all of his Gallic peers. Despite this, his output over the last seven years or so has been staggering - this collection of Joakim's "Best" remixes to date doesn't even cover half of his output. The reason for this [...]

Toi la jeune putain de Pigalle toi qui t’es fais baisoter par un bougre qui avait la galle. Ta première fois un sale bituré t’a rémunéré de dix balles pour ta virginité. Tu lambine au point du jour une fois que les porcs roupillent entre tes jambes. ;) > Aminjig nebere (Joakim's Afrobot Mix) - Clashing Egos > Just Gazing (Joakim Edit) - In Flagranti > Sasparilla Kiss (Mickey Moonlight Remix) - Coco Electrik [...]

Most of you uber-hipsters already know about French remix master Joakim The guy has single-handedly carved out his own niche in the punkfunk/electronica/IDM/elect ro realm. This isn't one of those "breaking" posts or anything. Basically, to keep a long story short, a friend dropped today's post while DJing at a party and it just blew my head wide open. Keep in mind that European electronic music fans are sooo much more savvy, so it took a while for this to get to my ears, this side of the Atlantic. I've been a fan of Joakim's new disco/electro style - [...]
