Every second Friday at Underground SF is Pulse Generator and this Friday features Chris Zaldua aka DJ CZ. For his set this Friday he says, “If you’ve caught me DJing over the past couple of weeks you’ve probably heard me play really weird all-over-the-place opening sets, which are fun, but I’m really looking forward to picking a bunch of technicolor techno rippers and building a dancefloor groove.” DJ CZ (Surface Tension, Left Hand Path) Liz Revision (Quantazelle, subVariant, Dust Science, Intelligent Dance Party) Rubidium (From 0-1, Pulse Generator, Anode Records) UNDERGROUND SF 424 Haight St, San Francisco 10pm – 2am 21+ | $5 all night FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/events/1729236200630501/ RESIDENT ADVISOR: https://www.residentadvisor.net/event.aspx?854748 DJ CZ Chris Zaldua is a music journalist/enthusiast in addition to being a great DJ.

“The Secret Gentleman’s Spontaneously Innocuous Assembly Soundtrack” Electroswing Mix
Here’s an electroswing mix I did a couple of weeks ago for the Club Foot Speakeasy-themed checkpoint during Chiditarod. The racing part of the team won for Best Art Cart with two giant hotrods drag-racing, one of the cars driven by drag queens. Pretty great.

Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” Shred Edition
Basically, yep. [Via Prins Thomas]

“Glowfest” .. or “what to be aware of”
Sexy video, right? So, Glowfest is basically a campus-touring electronic music marketing event, geared to snare in young people and capitalize on their attention for other means. By “other means” they’ve attached a job fest to it (actively seeking startups to participate, mind you), to seduce these young people who they feel are attracted by the emotions created through electronic music to then pursue careers in their highly technical fields. Oh, and I’m sure they’ve done the numbers and expect to make bank on it. So you probably are wondering why I would even spend typing time on such a thing if I don’t want it promoted. Consider it a warning lesson to those of us in the industry: anything can be commodified and its original purpose subverted … Read More

Cindy Sherman's photograph is now the most expensive photo ever. And I did an homage to it.
Like Ms. Sherman, my creative process involves being alone, thinking, devising, mentally-sketching, tweaking, re-tweaking, re-thinking; sharing for feedback, and then re-tweaking some more. It’s emblematic of the contemporary, technology-enabled artist, in a way. Creative types have so many resources available: so many mediums to muck around in, so many visual sandboxes (like Adobe CSx–Photoshop, Illustrator, Premier); audio playgrounds (like Reaktor, Ableton, FL Studio) and platforms for interdisciplinary / cross-medium work (like Max/MSP, etc). … When I applied to art colleges, I was so disheartened by the rampant insistence that I choose a medium. I didn’t like the feeling of being forced to create within an established “language” (medium) that could be critically evaluated (by critics who specialized in media). Then I found California Institute of the Arts, was … Read More
