Th' Mole Wraps Up Tour + New Music Vid

After finishing 3.5 months of touring across the US and Europe, Th' Mole has been working on new material and getting set for more shows throughout August and September, including a 5-day stint in Holland (including shows with Curse Ov Dialect and DJ 0.000001) followed by Burning Man. He also found the time to make the silly music video for his bitter break-up song "I Hate You" from the Greatest Hits (Ha Ha Ha) Vol. 1 album:


Being the media-crazed attention whore that he is, Th' Mole has continued to grace newspapers, radio, and magazines in the last few months. You can stream or download his live performance and interview on Capital Public Radio (here). Also, Kinki Mag has run a few stories on Th' Mole, including one for its latest issue (free online - pg. 72).

While Th' Mole continues to toil away, you crazy fans can expect two or three free maxi-singles in the next few months. Meanwhile, don't forget about the two latest free maxi-singles, How 2 B Cool (ft. Robot Koch & Ladyscraper) and Jump Jack (ft. Warrior Queen and Mochipet).

worst day:
leaving from marseilles to paris (on a full moon), missed train, then realized that i had lost my 2nd cell phone and my train pass (which cost $1100). finally made it to marseilles, and my host immediately got in a car wreck. went to police station to settle dispute between drivers, ended up the loser. next asked the police to make a police report for my lost train pass (because in order to get a partial refund i needed a police report within 24 hours), and was denied. other band canceled the gig for that night due to a motorcycle wreck. very small audience at the show. at end of night, organizers of show got into a huge yelling match. next morning, returned to police station and was denied a report again. (finally found a new police station and made the report in the nick of time.)

or maybe the worst day was leaving from bordeaux to netherlands, realizing that i misread my itinerary and was over 5 hours late for my train. i needed to get there, not only for a show that night, but because a guy there owed me money, i had most of my things there, and i was leaving the next day back to the US. i took a cab to the airport (35 euros), bought a plane ticket to paris (300 euros), and took trains to netherlands from there. 5 minutes before the 1st train left i was informed that i needed a reservation. with no time to spare i tried to get one, in vain, tried to buy a ticket, also in vain, and then ran back to the train, incurring a 100 euro fine. this train was 10 minutes late so i missed my connecting train. then i missed the next train too, cause i misunderstood where to catch it. when i finally arrived at the venue i was 6 hours late. luckily there were still enough people to perform for, but half the audience had left by that time.

best day:
day off in switzerland - swimming/drinking wine/eating cheese in lucerne, then took train to zurich and visited the amazing squat, binz, which is a gigantic disneyland for artists - took a dip in gigantic hot tub and ate a good meal - for dessert, barbecued chocolate bananas.

other highlights:
williams, oregon - playing in the middle of nowhere for a packed restaurant of super hyped kids.. seattle - opened for filastine, then after party, performed again with filastine and dj collage.. LA - played a show in a rad gallery, included in audience and/or performing: k-the-i??, bizzart, baseck, wet mango, mc homeless, dj stere0type, branded, youth:kill, etc.. santa barbara - playing for a houseful of hyped college kids, vegan breakfast in the morning.. austin - watching the incredible jubbs perform.. austin/indiana/michigan - recording/hanging out with strange powers/id obelus/myn dwun.. portland, me - meeting thesis, jameses, roma, pierre motionless, brzowski & sontiago.. paris - riddlore opens (?) for me.. poland - seeing the ancestral homeland & hanging with dr. krank & koola.. mainz - watching incredible performances by ohlsons feat. babel fishh & jamesphoney w/ james reindeer.. zurich - super hyped crowd, hanging out with ancient mith, goran, manu, staying up all night.. toulouse and cassis - paradises.. paris again - free sushi.. lucerne - hanging out with ghislain poirier and william s. blake, after party in army bunkers.. DC - performing on the street w/ flail & unscheduled co-vocalist 'uncle jesse'.

New old DJ 0.000001 mix!



Bay Area-based Circuitry Audio has just re-released a DJ 0.000001 "mix" that was released on CD-R a couple years ago. We put "mix" in quotes because, as is characteristic of DJ One-Millionth, his mix involves extreme editing, layering and original sequencing. Many of the compositions on this release, Listen To My Futures, later found their way onto the Whirled Fusion mixtape (featuring Th' Mole), but some (such as the Fugazi remix) has remained unheard on the internet until now. Circuitry AudioCheck it!

Also coming soon from DJ 0.000001, a new single featuring Mochipet and Eazy-E, another single ("Down In A Hole") coming out on Chrome Kids, and a remix album for Well.

The Jacker Gets Jacked


Daly City's resident beat jacker DJ 0.000001 recently got a taste of his own medicine when Canadian remix/rapper/singer gals Risky Business ganked the instrumental for his latest single - "We All Fall Down" - and laced it with original vocals and a Nancy Sinatra chorus. The result is freaking beautiful, as you can hear for yourself. (Never mind that it was released with no credit given to DJ 0.000001 or Nancy Sinatra. I suppose we can forgive them since they are beautiful blond Canadians and all.)

Meanwhile Mr. "One-Millionth" continues his adventures opening up for Th' Mole in Europe and the US. During the long train rides he has kept busy working on a new single as well as a remix album for Well. Stay tuned...

Th' Mole On Tour, Making Noise


In the midst of a tour that will last through July and possibly longer, Th' Mole has been making a mess all over the place. Not only has his album hit #12 on the CMJ charts and his single remained #1 on XLR8R's MP3 downloads for nearly three weeks, he's managed to get a ton of other press and new fans during his travels as well as recording a crazy new collaboration album, featuring a ton of the talented folks with whom he has encountered on the road. Including Baseck and Cristinky of Sonic Death Rabbit, amongst a host of others, the album is sure to be chock full of insane talent and an eclectic array of styles. (See below, as Michigan's Myn Dwun records his crunk-ass verse about the value of hugging your friends, in Th' Mole's car!)


The busy little Mole promises to give us an in-depth recap of the tour (including the reason behind his getting turned away from the Canadian border) as soon as he has a spare minute, but for now you can follow his Twitter updates at twitter.com/thmole and see his upcoming schedule for the US and Europe at myspace.com/themole.

MASTER P ON ATARI OUT TODAY!



[ Exlusive on iTunes or Addictech ]

The latest official full length record from Mochipet "Master P on Atari"
is out today exclusively on iTunes and Addictech.

ARTIST: Mochipet
TITLE:

Mastered by:
Bil Bless

Mochipet’s 808 Opus “Microphonepet” gained him a spot on 2kSports’ NBA2k9 Videogame along side acts such as Beastie Boys, N.E.R.D., and The Cool Kids and now he’s back with another Glitched Out Video Game Marathon. Master P on Atari is dirtier, bassier, and spaceier, with lazers set on full destruct. You’ll hear elements of Hip Hop, Dubstep, 8bit, IDM, Metal, and Chopped and Screwed but it is still all David Y. Wang, expanding on his already immense electronic musical pallet. There might be a reason why publications such as The Clash Magazine (UK), Bay Guardian, and SFWeekly has nomited him as one of the Best Electronic Act of 2008 and one to watch for in the future!
Kid Koala (Ninjatune)
“Mochipet is hilariously funky. He should score the next Katamari video game!”

Clash Magazine ( UK )
“Top Electronic Artists of 2008 - Savaged edits over schizphreaked beats sizzled Mochipet's great album into our charts…talent populated this sonic bullet.”

edIT (The Glitch Mob) "Mochi is keepin' it hyphy for the asians."

Lazersword (Briefcase Rockers) “yo man, was just listening to this mochipet track on my itunes a second ago, and was like what the fuck this is the dopest track i've ever heard. that whole album is rawwwwww”

MISSILL ( Paris , France )
“WOW, i didnt take a slap on my face like dat since a while.. wow wickeed album !!!...well done, big respect”

URB Magazine
“Mochipet is making one hell of an argument—for hip hop and even music in general….One very versatile producer…"

KEXP ( Seattle , WA ) “beats spanning the hip-hop and electronic genres, often combining the two in memorable fashion…you barely have to lift a finger to enjoy this”

Pharrell (FLUOKIDS Blog) " Mochipet ….soft and pop, slow fox trot, rubs your buttocks more gently please, I want to take my time like turning the first 25 pages of pub of my magazine of mode, mode."

New Mix With Mochipet, Mochipet, Akira Kiteshi, Ghislain Poirier, Jahcoozi, Modeselektor, Busy P, Milanese, Landstrumm, Diplo, Joker, more by NIC



THANKS TO DOKTOR KRANK!

Heavy, eclectic mix of electronic glitch hop breaks spiced up with bass heavy dubstep and a few other styles by an artist called NIC. It’s quite funny as the term “nic” in Polish means “nothing” and as it turns out I practically know nothing about this artist, apart from the fact that he/they is/are probably from Australia and definitely knows how to cook a delicious music meal. I’ve even forgot where I found this quality music. Whatever, enjoy the ride.
Mochipet, Akira Kiteshi, Ghislain Poirier, Jahcoozi, Modeselektor, Busy P, Milanese, Landstrumm, Diplo, Joker plus remixes by Two Fingers, Megasoid, Si Begg, Kraddy – what else can you expect from a good mix. Absolutely amazing selection of midtempo vibes yet very moving, uplifting and full of raw energy. Intelligent glitch break beat music!

Th' Mole gets mad good press


People seem to like Th' Mole's new album and music video quite a bit. Not only has the album debuted at #33 on the CMJ college radio charts, but it has received a huge amount of web and print attention, even without any press campaign.

Poland's Doktor Krank says

"You should definitely check this release, even if you never heard about this guy. His music escapes easy pigeonholing as its creativity goes much much beyond one music genre or style, which is quite a painful thing for music journalists, but a real treat for any intelligent and open-minded music fans. Turbo wonky apocalyptic madness delivered by Th’ Mole with the help of his fantastic vocal cords in a goofy hip hop manner, built on glitch and free-style electronica will elevate your mood instantly! You will be surprised, your mood will swing like in kaleidoscope. But you will definitely love the man behind this entire bombastic nuke dropped unexpectedly on you. Writing about Th’mole music you just cannot escape being a bit bombastic in your selection of words, sorry I can’t do anything about this."

Ha! Read the whole article here.

Meanwhile, Exclaim.ca gives another rave review:

A collection of reworked "hits" alongside new tunes, Greatest Hits is fun, upbeat dance music inspired by rap, glitch-hop and electro, with just a splash or two of bluegrass fiddle. Using this catchy ear candy as a backdrop, th' Mole flips hyper, simple raps that emphasize the positive messages in his music, such as "How 2 B Cool" and "People Are Good," alongside dance floor scorchers like "Jump Jack" and "Heart Phire," and a handful of instrumentals. Even the one angry song, "I Hate You," a break-up song, is fairly energetic and dances the thin line between ballad and rump shaker, finally crossing over with the angrier 8-bit remix, labeled "Secret Hidden Bonus Track." A bonus MP3 EP contains a few more songs and remixes. "Tick Tick Blam" appears in original and instrumental form, as well as two remixes, but the highlights are "Brush 'Em," a sugary sweet, pro-teeth cleaning anthem from th' Mole's children's entertainer alter ego Captain Daydream, and the two-part lesson in horseback riding, "Go Horsie," the first part serving as the newest single, with a video featuring th' Mole running amok as a vibrantly costumed "stupid, supercharged idiot."

See the aforementioned "Go Horsie" music video here, and read the full Exclaim review here.

also at chrome kids: a-ux remix of "sharp drest"

speaking of chrome kids (see previous post here on ye olde daly city blog):



earlier this week, chrome kids posted an electro remix of "sharp drest" by new york producer a-ux. i hadn't heard before and it's off-the-wall good.

the original version of the track - by eriksolo of meanest man contest, mochipet, and oonceoonce, is available on mochi's album microphonepet and can be downloaded for free at rcrd lbl (and other places too - see previous posts). you can also hear it in the soundtrack to nba 2k9 and catch a bunch of other great remixes of it at the remix microphonepet page.

Th' Mole & DJ 0.000001 on new ChromeKids mix

The bumpin' new mix tape from the ChromeKids features your boy DJ 0.000001's hit ODB/Glitch Mob/Matty G "thrash-up" as well as The Motherboard's "Motherload". "Motherload" is an ambitious "posse cut" executive produced by Th' Mole, including about 20 producers and MC's. Nearly two years in the making, the 8-minute long single has finally been released (along with an instrumental and acapella version) for free at Hand'Solo Records.com.



From ChromeKids.Blogspot.com:

Hopefully we haven't over loaded you with all the dope mixtapes this month because now we have our very own Hulk Hop Vs Crunk Rock mix for you to blast out. Stacked full of some of our favourite recent Dubstep tracks including: Stagga's killer track that's currently smashing dancefloors, Sick As Sin and his exclusive refix of Busta Rhymes' I Got Bass ; Monkey's version of the Velvet Underground track Venus In Furs, a grimeish version of Living On A Prayer by Swedish Hip-hop crew Looptroop; George Lenton's fantastic remixes of MGMT and The King Blues, and a couple of our favourite Raffertie remixes for The Scarlet Harlots and Food For Animals; there's also plenty more Bass heavy Future Hip-hop and erm Black Sabbath and the Rolling Stones too. Please feel free to circulate this wherever you choose.
