On Friday 15 June 2012 Matterhorn will host one of the most innovative producers and live performers you will find anywhere. Globe-trotting, beat-making, key-tickling NZ-export Mark de Clive-Lowe (MdCL) returns home for two exclusive NZ shows with Matterhorn hosting the only Wellington show. MdCL will be coming to NZ straight off a three week Europe tour and a quick pit stop show in NYC. He's bringing us a unique live show he calls REMIX:LIVE… "The remix has always been such a fundamental part of club culture - recontextualizing something from what it was to something else completely new. I have vocal accapellas playing on the turntables and then create the beats and music on the fly, building complete remixes in real time as they happen. I'm making the records at the same time as you're hearing them. Every show has a different vibe and I love sharing that…" - Mark de Clive-Lowe It's a one-man live show that has the likes of Masters At Work's Louie Vega, hip hop legend DJ Spinna and party rocker DJ Karizma in awe - the latter calling MdCL "the illest dude I have ever seen live". Remixing everything from his own productions to club and soul classics, even the legends aren't safe. De Clive-Lowe says, "I love taking something everyone knows, even say a Stevie Wonder joint, and giving it a completely different setting that no one would expect or imagine." Pop your boogie eyeballs in. Matterhorn. Friday 15 June. Doors for this event open at 11pm. $5 entry.
