ROCK NIGHT – SEETHER

Rock Night – Free Open Air
Musik Pavillon, Friday 22nd March 2012

Seether


Seether is the Headlining on the Thursday Rock Night:

Change isn’t easy. But Seether vocalist, guitarist and songwriter Shaun Morgan understands that nothing worth accomplishing ever is. “When I was in rehab in 2006,” he recalls, embracing a sense of humorous selfawareness that comes with hindsight, “I learned that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.” In other words: evolution is key not only to surviving but also thriving. It’s a way of thinking that Morgan applies to both himself and to the way his band operates. In a career that’s spanned nearly a decade, the power trio of Morgan, bassist Dale Stewart and drummer John Humphrey that is collectively known as Seether has toured the globe on the strength of five Gold and Platinum-selling albums: steadily growing a devoted fan base while continually pushing creative boundaries. Seether breaks new ground again with its fifth studio LP, Holding onto Strings Better Left to Fray. As the Wängl guests are about to hear, change is good.

Hip Hop Night – M.O.P.

Hip Hop Night – Free Open Air
Musik Pavillon, Friday 23rd March 2012

M.O.P.

M.O.P.

The year 1993 changed the game and set a new level for all crews, clans and gangs around the globe. The formation of tribes like Wu Tang Clan, Boot Camp Clik and of course The Mash Out Posse had a major impact in the music world, but also in the freestyle sports, streetart and fashion scences.
Especially videos like „How About Some Hardcore“or „Wu Tang Clan Ain´t Nuthin´To Fuck With“, which featured their whole hood, instead of a single artist, were intimitading and attractive at the same time to headz around the globe. No wonder that even in the Austrian microcosmos 1993 saw the foundation of two little families called Texta and Ästhetiker.

M.O.P.

In this memorable year M.O.P. appeared on the New York rap scene and dropped their first album  „2 tha Death“ including the street anthem „How About Some Hardcore“. A couple of years and releases later, in 2000 their fourth album „Warriorz“, produced by DJ Premier brought the final breakthrough with songs like „Ante Up“ and „Cold As Ice“.
To the Ä-Crew the M.O.P. show is the ulimate icing of the birthday cake, that we like to call the Vans Wängl Tängl 2012!

Hip Hop Night – “Banana Klan presents Roots Manuva, Ricky Ranking, Seanie T and DJ MK”

Hip Hop Night – Free Open Air
Musik Pavillon, Friday 23rd March 2012

“Banana Klan presents Roots Manuva, Ricky Ranking, Seanie T and DJ MK”

Since MethodMag used „Witness“ for a video edit about the Ä-Jam at Gerlitzen in 2002 many Ästhetikers feel an almost intimate relation with this fella. Representing his posse, The Banana Klan, Mr Rodney Smith aka Roots Manuva enters the crew contestiväl on Friday´s main stage at the Music Pavillion Mayrhofen.

Smith debuted as Roots Manuva in 1994 on Blak Twang’s “Queen’s Head” single, before releasing his own single, “Next Type of Motion”. Releasing for Coldcut’s renowned experimental/hip hop label Ninja Tune in 1998, some of his music may be seen as a predecessor of grime. The following year he released his groundbreaking debut album, Brand New Second Hand. A reference to his family’s modest lifestyle, the title refers to a phrase his mother used for presents he often got as a youngster that were pre-used.
He had such an impact on the UK rap scene that The Times declared that “his is the voice of urban Britain, encompassing dub, ragga, funk and hip hop as it sweeps from crumbling street corners to ganja-filled dancehalls, setting gritty narratives against all manner of warped beats.” Manuva was rewarded for his breakthrough with a MOBO as Best Hip Hop Act that year.

A quote from Smith himself sums up his early discovery of music:

“It was as a kid. Before I even knew what a soundsystem was. I was walking past Stockwell skateboard park and there was this sound being set up. They were probably just trying out their speakers. I was with my mum, holding my mum’s hand. And I remember my mum being quite intimidated by the whole affair. Such a barrage of bass coming from it! And these dodgy-looking blokes standing beside it just admiring the sound of their bass. It’s just a bass thing. A volume thing. I don’t know if I rose-tint the memories, but I remember it sounded so good, so rich. It’s not like today when we go to clubs and it hurts. It was more of a life-giving bass.“

Hip Hop Night – Ill Mindz

Hip Hop Night – Free Open Air
Musik Pavillon, Friday 23rd March 2012

ILL MINDZ

 

ILL Mindz
Def Ill and Digga Mindz teaming up means original streetrap at it´s ruffest and dirtiest. Digga is yet the only true representative of Corinth-I.A. aka the Dirty South of Austria. He has long made a name for himself as a producer and a rapper with this special flow of the region and a distinct love for the battle, diss and competition elements of Hip Hop.
If an MC is measured by tecnique, flow, style and meaning – then Def Ill has to be called the country´s best rapper. No wonder, that if you start to get on the mic at the age of 10, you are spitting perfect tripple-time-raps in your early twenties and are the worst enemy that anyone could ever have in a beef or battle.

Twintowas present 60 Minits Of Funk

60 Minits Of Funk is a collective of creative, laid-back musicians based around the Vienniese music scene. The passion for live performances and improvized edgy live jams created a new version of the typical funk session. The fusion of future boogie, turntablism, hiphop and house makes every concert a unique ride and sometimes a ruff party experience.

This special team consists of players from some of the Ästhetiker´s favourite bands – sort of a morphed supermonster created for one purpose only: to rock the p-a-r-t-y!

The rhythmical backbone are the ‘Twintowas’, two excellent musicians, beatmakers and part of the ‘Waxolutionists live band’.

With ’Stoney the Flute’ ’60minits’ present their charming pro-soloist numero uno, playing in various bands and projects since years, travelling around the world and spreading jazzflute vibes all over.

 

The keysection is well staffed with ’Davoodi’, one of vienna’s best musicians and producers, when it comes to the funk in any way.

‘Chrisfader’ is the turntablist of 60minits, part of the tyrolean Dj Team ‘Ghostbusters’, ITF austrian champion and a rare, musically engaged solo turntablist.

With the incredible ’Lylit’, Austrias best soul, hiphop and jazz vocalist who is also part of Sk Invitational, ’60 minits of funk’ now step up to the next level in 2012.

An Adventure indeed.

>> Vienna meets Detroit, Philly and London!

Wax Wreckaz

 

The infamous Tribe from Innsbrooklyn have played at each and every shred event in Austria. Every event? Not quite: we shamefully admit that we have permanently forgotten to book them. Which could be linked to the fact that every time we heared them play at a party, we liked to hear them play at the party. And got so hammered, that on the next morning we forgot how good it was. So it´s´really their own fault, that they didn´t rock a wängl party so far. To end this dilemma once and for all we proudly announce a Wax Wreckaz show for the Red Bull Brandwagen Street Concert.
