For the occasion of the Viral Radio Festival 2009, Juha was interviewed by 3voor12’s weekly show Dubbelcheck. He talks for 10 minutes about the upcoming festival, the international scene of beatmakers, and the role of Viral Radio. The interview is in Dutch. Have a listen here.
“Viral Radio staat bekend om de nieuwste experimentele elektronische muziek, dubstep, emotronic, aquacrunk en WARP-helden. Het platform brengt scenes uit Londen (met name dubstep en wonky), Glasgow (rond Rustie en Hudson Mohawke) en Los Angeles (rond Flying Lotus en Gaslamp Killer) bij elkaar en smeedt het langzaam tot één familie.” – Juha

Next week the second Viral Radio Festival will take place in Amsterdam. After the first edition in June 2008, that took place on one night at the Bimhuis and 11, we have grown to three venues in three nights. On Wednesday1 July we will have a CD-R night with Hudson Mohawke, Cinnaman, Icarus and Gavin and Tony from London. Bring your own beats and get feedback from the pros. On Thursday we will have Icarus, Furt and Mamiko Motto at the wonderful Bimhuis. And on Friday, the grand finale of the festival will take place with Daedelus, Hudson Mohawke, Bullion, the Blessings, and Juha & Cinnaman.
Tickets are 5 euros on Wednesday (but free if you bring beats), 15 on Thursday, and 12 on Friday. If you send an enthusiastic e-mail to info at viralradio dot net with, your ticket on Thursday will only be 10 euros.
As always, we look forward to seeing you at these nights, and we thank you for your support.

A surprise encounter between Alfred and Juha recently at the Lloyd Hotel
This is not an official Viral Radio event but since one of us is doing bits and pieces of live electronic music concerts here and there in Amsterdam, we thought you might be interested. And since you seemed to like the Brainfeeder attack last Friday, knowing that another artist from that Los Angeles pedigree is visiting Amsterdam hardly seems a burden.
Therefore we would like to invite you for this Wednesday at De Verdieping where two of the kindest people of electronic music will be performing live: Daedelus and Pierre Bastien. The former hails from Santa Monica, played bassoon and clarinet before solitarily enjoying rave music at a young age, and participating in the development of one of the sleekest music devices known to man, the Monome. The latter is a French composer, multi-instrumentalist and literature Phd from Rotterdam, idolised by Squarepusher, Aphex Twin and Icarus, who constructs his own landscapes of automated music machines, forming an orchestra of kinetic instruments.
Bastien will premier new work, while Daedelus will talk about the Monome. This event takes place in the underground basement of Trouw Amsterdam. Doors open at 8.30 PM, and admission is a mere 8 euros. Here are the links for Last FM and Facebook. We hope to see you there.

In the second show we play new and sometimes unreleased music by Dabrye, Starkey, Harmonic 313, Flying Lotus, the Blessings and Joker, artists from Ann Arbor, Philadelphia, Sydney, Los Angeles, Glasgow and Bristol. We range from the Hyperdub realm to the Bristolian continuum. Subscribe to the podcast, or download the mp3 directly.
