BOOTIE LA – with U.K. guest DJ Eric Kleptone of The Kleptones – this Saturday, November 4th at The Echo!
This coming Saturday,
BOOTIE LA - your monthly mashup bootleg party - is proud to present a very special guest DJ set from infamous U.K. mashup artist
ERIC KLEPTONE of THE KLEPTONES (
http://www.kleptones.com)! Rising above simple "bastard pop," The Kleptones have honed four full-length conceptual albums of bootleg music with actual running narratives and unchallenged imagination.
You might know them from their first album,
Yoshimi Battles The Hip-Hop Robots, which blended the Flaming Lips album with rap vocals. Later that year, they released their landmark
A Night At The Hip-Hopera, which mixed hip-hop with the music of Queen, and peppered the combination with a mix of film and spoken-word samples, critiquing the current state of the music industry. The album won the band legions of fans, a flurry of press, and a legal threat from Disney, who, through Hollywood Records, own Queen's catalog in the U.S. This year, The Kleptones released the epic double album
24 Hours, their most ambitious release yet, and one that has been universally hailed as "the first true mashup concept album."
(Click on the above Kleptones albums to check out a listing of the tracks and samples!)
Alongside their album releases The Kleptones have also built up a reputation as laptop DJs deluxe, twisting and warping their album content alongside a range of music stretching from house, hip-hop, electro, all kinds of rock and beyond, remixing, looping and reconstructing as they go. For fans of mashup/remix culture, this is one DJ set you won't want to miss!
