mnml

We know we've let our minimal-minded visitors down a bit lately. Thing is that we concider minimal to be a bit for wintertime and dark, rainy days. We're not saying you can't enjoy it during the summer (Voltt loves summer can back me up on that), but when wintertime hits, minimal is just the way to go and summer has got its own thing goin on. So we'll provide you your monthly minimal fix but we gotta keep things fresh here on awkwardpirates.

For your entertainment

They might not know how to write their names yet but they sure are making work of those tabletops.

Thanks to D. Thomas for leading the way

Awkward Pirates goddamnit!!

Oh yes.. change of emailadress(!). Our inbox is jampacked with all the emails you guys are sending us and since its all getting a bit unorganised we decided to make a seperate email for all our loyal visitors. So awkwardpirates@gmail.com is the new adress you can reach us on.


We're also trying to figure out how myspace works because we registered www.myspace.com/awkwardpirates yesterday but we're new to myspace so bare with us.

That's right

Fridaynight electro

Ah yes, FINALLY weekend is around the corner and what a weekend it will be.

Flexbar is hosting another 'WE LOVE' party! Now.. we haven't actually been to one of these welove parties before but they come highly recommended by the guys over at Apollokiddz. After experiencing their 'break it down' party hosted by Palmsout we're sure this party won't go down bad either.
Lineup:
The walk & Rogerseventytwo
Danger
Beesmunt Soundsystem
Check AMSTEREO for more info.

To get you in your weekend-party mood we brought along some tunes for ye:

First is the track we requested a while back. It was hosted in the Februari Crookers mix we posted earlier and this was our favourite bit: Boy 8 Bit - Wolfen. Don't know if it's actually been released yet.

Second is a track we found sitting in our inbox. It's done by Sebastian: Motor (distort edit). The Ed banger label is known for setting the bar high when it comes to electro nowadays and Sebastian managed to nudge it up a tiny bit higher. Cant wait for the official release.

Extra:
This week we recieved word from a guy we quite honestly never had heard of before (no offense). We know that his name is Leroysevenfive and that he is part of the 'Tuff Wheelz' Duo but he didn't give us a helluvalot more info. He sent some of his work and as some of you know; we try to give newcommers a chance.

Juvelen - They don't love you (Sevenfive remix)
FredZeFred - Not another trip (Sevenfive remix)

Don't be hatin on our random irrelevant pictures.

Berlin knows how to party.

Watergate Berlin definitly knows how to dress a club. Bit similar to Amsterdams Jimmy Woo.
Dont put your volume up to high, the soundquality isn't that great.

Kreuzberg stellt sich
