|| Mochipet on Rhythm Incursions: September 08 ||

Check out the new Rhythm Incursions Mix with: Mochipet, Free The Robots, Nosaj Thing, and more. We return to the more ‘regular’ Rhythm Incursions shows this week, and with both Trick and Waxfactor unfortunately otherwise engaged and unable to step up as they normally do (real life’s crazy like that!) I’m strapping on my presenter goggles and bringing you an hour of fresh new music. Considering it’s been about 2 months since the last show, there’s quite a few bits to get stuck into from the likes of Mochipet, Mighty Joseph, Uncle Lew, Nosaj Thing, Mweslee, Dilla, Samiyam and Free The Robots. Oh and we’ve got a mini-feature on the excellent Various Production too.

|| Mochipet, Daly City Records, BBQ, Taste the Mochi in the lastest SFBay Guardian (BY KIMBERLY CHUN) ||

Taste the Mochi

Mochipet -- the ever-fruitful laptop lothario. BY KIMBERLY CHUN

"SONIC REDUCER "If you build it, they will come!" A few famous first words from David Wang — otherwise known as the ever-fruitful laptop lothario Mochipet — when we spoke recently, and something to ponder as I gazed around his so-chill, so-frolicsome, and oh-so-free Fourth of July barbecue bash in Golden Gate Park. In a green, leafy nook near the fields where the buffalo roam, a DJ tent is up and housing such pals as Phon.o and Flying Skulls. Funk 'n' Chunk fire the grill with impressive flamethrower action, and Christian of the Tasty crew plunges fish-sauce-marinated chicks into the hot grease for Filipino fried chicken. Throw a Tecate on the whole thing, pet your mochi, and call it an awesome party despite the fact that, as Wang confides, "we did get started a little late because there were some rangers sniffing around." Wang is accustomed to building where few have ventured before — and as a collaborator extraordinaire who has worked with everyone from Spank Rock to Ellen Allien, he's brought together communities of sorts in the most unlikely of locales (hence the name of his label, Daly City Records). Earlier that week we chatted by phone in lieu of digging into Hong Kong deep-fried pork chops and a sweet, cheap Filipino breakfast ("It's like soul food for Asians — everything's either deep-fried or smoked") at Gateway restaurant near the literal and spiritual home of Daly City Records. The occasion is his forthcoming Mission Creek Music and Arts Festival, an improv-y and likely collaborative performance, as well as a whopping release show at Club Six for his latest disc, Microphonepet (Daly City). A formidable gathering of all of Wang's work and collaborations since 2001, Microphonepet overwhelms with its awesome sonics, roving from "Tangle" with Salva and Epcot and "Get Your Whistle Wet" with the Hustle Heads, to "Vnecks" with 215 the Freshest Kids and "Lazy Days" with KFlay. Where has Wang been hiding his crazily deep-fried, deliciously bleepy hip-hop production skills all this time? "Guess it got to the point where last year I got 20 tracks, so I just put them out as a record, because some of them are really cool," he explains. "I thought they were really diverse and it would be a good segue to my next record."
Wang has been pouring plenty of energy into that coming disc, which may be released on Daly City or an imprint like Ninjatune. He describes it as more personal: he's skating progressive, jazz, and South American musical influences off trad Korean and Chinese sounds, and acoustic guitar off heavy electronics. "I've always written ... traditional songs but I've never really been comfortable releasing it," says Wang, who describes his early aural interests as veering toward jazz and salsa. "All my records before this have been experiments — me trying new things. But they haven't been as personal as this next record. I think of it as my first record, really. I'm a slow bloomer." *

|| KEXP Song of the Day: Mochipet - Sharp Drest ||


photo by Krissi Pearson
Every Monday through Friday, we deliver a different song as part our Song of the Day podcast subscription. This podcast features exclusive KEXP in-studio performances, unreleased songs, and recordings from independent artists that our DJs think you should hear. Today’s featured selection, chosen by Afternoon Show host Kevin Cole, is Sharp Drest by Mochipet from the 2008 album Microphonepet on Daly City.

Mochipet - Sharp Drest (MP3)

Folks in Seattle may recall seeing Mochipet last month dressed as a purple dinosaur terrorizing the racks of Sonic Boom during Ballard Day. Whether you were there or not, these photos from the scene are sure to entertain. On Microphonepet, the latest from David Wang, aka Mochipet, the artist has collected 20 tracks from the last five years and amassed nearly 30 guests to contribute. Born in Taiwan and now stationed in the Bay Area, Mochipet produces and creates beats spanning the hip-hop and electronic genres, often combining the two in memorable fashion. And as you’re now aware, Mochipet likes to dress up, not fancy-like but in full-on costumes. Though his in-store at Sonic Boom was short lived, the attire added volumes, leaving me more a little curious about his performances in an official capacity. Finally, Mochipet, like most DJ/producers, is seriously into the art of remixing. Last month he announced a remix contest, asking others to take a stab at his work. See what folks have come up with here. Conversely, Mochipet recently tried his hand at Jamie Lidell’s Little Bit of Feel Good, downloadable here courtesy of XLR8R. But back to the here and now, you barely have to lift a finger to enjoy this video for Get Your Whistle Wet:

|| Mochipet and Marilyn Manson? ||

marilyn_manson-christmas.jpg

Apparently The Marilyn Manson Band likes Justin Timberlake. Or at least "Justin Timberlakecore" by Mochipet. Cause it was part of their DJ set at the Offical Marilyn Manson Chicago Suicide Club after party. DJ Chris Vrenna (Marilyn Manson, Gnarls Barkley, Tweeker, NIN) jammed tunes such as Human League, Peaches, LCD Soundsystem, Iron Maiden, along with Mochipet's pop freakout "Justin Timberlakecore"
