Back once again for another year of unashamed musical self indulgence. Not to bore you with a lot of shit. Just letting the music do the talking.
This is one of my favourite cuts of what we have coming up. This is SMAK’s remix of Acos CoolKAs ‘ Our Robot Is Walking On Mars ‘. This package will have along with it a fucking fantastic Saalim remix and also an exclusive remix from chart topping Police sampling duo Different Gear.
And that is only the tip of the steel puncturing, top hat unmounting iceberg.
We@bored are extremely chuffed to be able to provide an extra couple of hours party space for the Sasha : Past, Present and Future night on the 26th February@Lush!. We are even more chuffed to be able to announce the one off return of Lush! warmup supremo DJ Rico ! He has agreed to come out of retirement and provide us with one of his trademark Lush! warmup sets.
If you have been a Lush! regular we don’t need to tell you the impact this guy made on the club in the noughties, the DJs he has supported and the legacy he left in Lush!.
What better way to start the party on our night of 2011.
Expect the biggest warmup hits from the Wonderboy !
We will be kicking off@7pm. So come down and start the night early.

We continue into June after a busy May by giving you an exclusive mix from one of our favourite DJs/Producers.
Joachim Dyrdahl alias diskJokke, a 28-year-old classically trained violinist from Svelvik, a small town southwest of Oslo with 5,000 inhabitants, who discovered electronic music aged 15 since when he has been at the vanguard of Norway’s club culture alongside Lindstrom and Prins Thomas, is very much in the Studio vein. Like them, he is a musician from the frozen north who specialises in creamy, dub-spacious electronica that would sound great played on the beach, or played alongside The Beach, the B-side of New Order’s seminal 12-inch single Blue Monday.
As diskJokke, Dyrdahl purveys a quirkily melodic blend of dub, house and Italo-disco. In his spare time, he is resident DJ at Norway’s premiere club night, Sunkissed, and he has remixed tunes for, among others, Lindstrom, NBOTD faves Spektrum and Bloc Party – his 11-minute overhaul of Sunday is to be released on Vice Records later this year. For the last eight years he’s been studying mathematics, but whether or not his future is arithmetical or electronical depends on how many of you rush out to buy his debut album, Staying In, the sound of Norse disco taken to its farthest, futuristic limits. But if we tell you that the opening track Folk I Farta samples Coati Mundi’s 1981 tour de force of satirical salsa Que Pasa/Me No Pop I and that the rest of the album is a mini-masterpiece of handclaps, poignant piano notes, dubby synths, clattering drums, basslines that are by turns bubbling and mournful, techno bleeps, acid squelches and jacking rhythms that nod to classic Chicago house while sounding grooviliciousy Scandinavian, we’re confident that academia’s loss will be electronica’s gain.
The release date has finally come. The very smart people at Junodownload.com have asked us to release bored001 exclusively with them for one week, so on the 21st of May you will be able to buy Saalim’s debut solo release on the link below.
From the end of the month you will be able to buy from all half decent digital outlets and for all the wax heads you will be able to purchase the vinyl from next week from Picadilly Records, Chemical Records and Juno.co.uk.
The track has been featured on Jody Wisternoff’s Mercuryserver birthday mix and the Bill Brewster’s DJhistory,com podcast and here are some nice things people have been saying about it.
Ilija Rudman – “Thanks for sending this .Very nice project . All the mixes are great and will sure make a point . Good stuff ! Original is Cool . And Acos CoolKas did a very fine remix” .
Dibby Dougherty (Yello) – “fantastic debut release for the label, Toby and Acos mix both hot as! But Saalims original is the one ill be playing the most, full support and will chart”.
