Laoban Soundsystem 2.0 Debut at In Bass We Trust in Beijing

Flier

That's right! Its finally time to kickoff some real Laoban Soundsystem. You don't understand how much blood, sweat, tears, relationships and more have gone into make this thing realidad. Its with the highest level of happiness I can say we get to use the biggest, best soundsystem Matt and myself have ever produced, at the next In Bass We Trust in Beijing on Saturday, September 4th at 2kolegas at 10 PM. Laoban DJ Nick Bell is opening the night and Yang Tao as well will be doing visuals. Also, friend JCICI from Guangzhou is the headliner. Don't miss this event! It is the first, and we are powering it!

Please make sure to live update from there on your mobile and take loads of photos and video with the tag #laoban2010.

After this event, get ready for some big announcements about Laoban Soundsystem and Sharism at Get It Louder in China this fall!

Fabrication for Cantocore of Guy Overfelt's "Untitled (Up in Smoke)"

Guy Overfelt just sent me this video to post up on Cantocore. I did and spread it around to all my sites because its such an mind blowing artwork and video. In Guangzhou, China, Fabricatorz facilitated the fabrication of this inflatable structure:

Guy just sent me the brilliant video documenting the installation of his "Untitled (Up in Smoke)" which Fabricatorz facilitated in getting fabricated. Click the image above or follow the link to see the video.

Don't forget tomorrow, Sat, Feb 28 from 4-6 PM is the Cantocore FOB Artists Talk at Mission 17. Come discuss the project with Guy, JD Beltran, David Johnson, Kathrine Worel, Justin Hoover, and myself.


After this fabrication, Fabricatorz assisted Matt Hope in connecting with the same Guangzhou-based inflatable company to begin fabrication on a 1/3 scale replica Russian submarine:

While Fabricators does 50% creative projects, we also do contract work such as connecting up companies and artists with fabrication companies in China. If you are interested in getting something special (or not so special) fabricated, send us an e-mail.
