Om al jullie zintuigen maximaal te prikkelen hosten wij op vrijdag 17 december een avond gevuld met exposities, bands & beats te Petrol, Antwerpen.

Ontstaan vanuit de muzikale underground aan de Antwerpse droogdokken is SenotoriK geëvolueerd tot een eclectisch audiovisueel concept waarvan deze 10 jarige editie het sluitstuk zal zijn. Meer live muziek, meer beats, meer kunst, meer variatie...

Op audiovisueel vlak - een live schildershow door Bert Lezy met projecties en 'verlichtende' verf, muzikale lichtcreaties geëxposeerd door Bart Reyntjes en Antwerp's finest vintage op canvas van Zic & Hojack. Live muziek van Antwerpse bodem, gebracht door muzikale 1000poten Caisse en hiphopformatie Wahwahsda.

De beats worden verzorgd door de notoire SenotoriK crew: Automatic Boogie & Nondejul, Arne & Miyaguy, Noemie & Shimtshack, the Oilbutcher, Goonie, Tox & Fonzie revolution. Power genoeg om weerwerk te bieden tegen Techno legende en headliner DJ Pierre (Fuse, I Love Techno) die al jaar en dag techno brengt van de bovenste plank.

All night long expo

Stacey Pullen is an American techno musician based out of Detroit.

Pullen was raised in Detroit, where he became interested in electronic music early in his life. He began working on the Detroit techno scene in 1990, studying with Derrick May and working with him on business ventures. He used the aliases Bango, Kosmik Messenger, X-Stacy and Silent Phase. Pullen's incorporation of house and garage with techno has been cited as an influence on later electronic artists.

In the course of the eighties Jeff Mills was an influential radio DJ on WJLB under the pseudonym The Wizard. Mills' sets were a highlight of the nightly show from "The Electrifying Mojo," Charles Johnson. Complimenting Mojo's eclectic playlists, Mills would spin obscure detroit techno, hiphop, electro, freestyle, miami bass, chicago house and classic new wave tracks. In going on to create his own music Mills is credited with laying the foundations for legendary detroit techno collective, Underground Resistance, alongside 'Mad' Mike Banks, a former Parliament bass player. Just like Public Enemy did some years before in hiphop, these men confronted the mainstream music industry with revolutionary rhetoric. Dressed in uniforms with skimasks and black combat suits, they were 'men on a mission', aiming at giving techno more content and meaning. Mills would never leave UR officially, but later on he still went his own way. He moved to New York and after a short stay in Berlin (recording for Tresor) ended up in Chicago. There in 1992, with Robert Hood, he set up his most important record label, Axis, aiming for a simpler more minimal sound than most of the techno being produced in those years. Later sub-labels were announced Purposemaker, Tomorrow, and 6277. His albums and EPs are mostly separate tracks of his compositions, which Mills would mix into the live DJ sets for which he became a legend. Mills has been credited for his exceptional turntable skills. Tracks are almost chopped to bits to showcase the strongest fragments for his relentless sound collages. Three decks, a Roland 909 drum-machine and seventy records in one hour: at breakneck speed Mills manipulates beats and basslines, vinyl and frequencies. The live album "Mix-Up Volume 2" is a highly-regarded example of Mills' 1990's stage show (recorded at the Liquid Room in Tokyo). For a later live show (in 2004) try the "Exhibitionist" album. More recently he appears to be taking extended forays into epic techno (such as his re-scoring of Metropolis (which he performed live with the original film) and his 16 September 2004 7 hour set with Laurent Garnier at Fabric. The epic proportions were further extended when his 2006 album "Blue Potential" was recorded with the Montpellier Philharmonic Orchestra under Alain Altinoglu. There is a DVD of the concert at which the album recorded, an opportunity to see Mills in action, live on stage.

Carl Craig is a Detroit-based producer of techno music, and is considered to be one of the most important names in the Detroit second generation of techno producers and DJs. Like many of his peers, Carl Craig has approached techno using inspiration from a wide range of musical genres, including jazz and soul. Carl Craig has released many successful albums under a large number of aliases, such as BFC, Psyche, Paperclip People, 69, Designer Music and Innerzone Orchestra. Using one alias, Innerzone Orchestra, he released perhaps his best-known track "Bug In The Bassbin" in 1992, a track that many regard as being a key influence in the then evolving sound of drum and bass. Carl Craig has also created his own record label called "Planet E", which apart from his own work, has released records by well known techno and house artists like Kevin Saunderson, Alton Miller and Moodymann. Craig served as artistic director for the widely successful Detroit Electronic Music Festival in 2000 and 2001. His subsequent dismissal by festival organizers caused substantial controversy within the Detroit techno community, igniting a high-profile campaign in his favor.[2] In 2001, Craig filed a breach-of-contract lawsuit against festival producer Pop Culture Media.[3] Part of what makes Craig's style so unique and separates him from much of the normal "Detroit Techno" sound, including current works, are his remixes of world beat and jazz songs. This has helped spark a new movement of electronic music.

Moodymann is the moniker under which Kenny Dixon Jr produces and DJs. He is a techno/house musician based in Detroit. He has created a thoroughly hybrid form of techno/house dance music via his innovative use of reworked riffs, samples and grooves taken from that city's historically influential jazz, soul, funk and disco scene. Some call it cut-up Detroit house. He offers a friendly wink backwards at the innovative early 1990s rave scene musicians through his extensive use of old movie sound track samples, mainly culled from the old blaxploitation and b-movie genres. He has been known to DJ behind a screen. He is one of the 3 Chairs.

Robert Hood makes minimal Detroit techno with an emphasis on soul and experimentation over flash and popularity. Having recorded for Metroplex, as well as the Austrian Cheap label and Jeff Mills%u2019 Axis label, Hood also owns and operates the M-Plant imprint (including the two sub-labels Drama and Duet) through which he has released the bulk of his solo material.

Berliner die met The Dance Paradox een van de meest bejubelde albums van het moment uit heeft. Deze mysterieus gemaskerde brengt tijdloze analoge techno vol drama en romantiek.

Have been dj'ing globaly the past years and am now enjoying family life. Have spinned records with guys like, Carl Craig, Derrick May, Stacey Pullen, Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier, Sven Vath and many more. I still play every now and then, but that's not more on a regular base. Have produced records on R&S records together with CJ Bolland under the name of "Sonic Solution".

Musician in heart and soul. He started his musical journey at 7 by playing the flute, to add guitar and bass a couple of years later. After some experiments in funk and rock bands, he got into DJ-ing as Vice. Through latin and soulful house, he arrived were he likes to be nowadays: the no-man%u2019s-land between house and techno, where sounds and beats are warm and energetic. Residencies (past & present) in Housenation Antwerp, Fairytale Café d'Anvers, Tijuana Ghent, ... Recently, Metrobox threw himself into producing which resulted in a first EP, released in April 2007. Sounds like: detroit-chicago-french-german-techno-house! Already got loads of support and charted by: Tiga, Rolando, Carl Craig, Santiago Salazar, Moguai, Avus, Fra (Ferenc)...
