Killswitch Happy hour w/ Kenneth Scott & Clairity!
This week at Killswitch: Kenneth Scott (Moniker/Nightlight/Auralism) and Clairity (Theta Records)



About Kenneth Scott :
Kenneth Scott makes small-scale techno with large sonic concerns. Recording under his Eutactic moniker with Auralism label head Jason Short and under his own name for friend Alland Byallo's Nightlight Music, Scott takes cues from early Warp records, Matthew Dear's acid experimentation as Audion, and minimal-minded composers like Philip Glass and Arvo Part. The results eye the "minimal" label with suspicion, combining techy snares, reptilian synths, and subtle layers of melody into something melodic, funky, and emotional -- uncategorizable and catchy as hell, just how Scott likes it. "I think that trance really ruined melodies and arpeggios for everyone," he says, "and only now are people a bit more open to it."
Raised in a small, rural Iowa town where he nursed an obsession with dance music, Kenneth learned a bit of every instrument he could get his hands on, while DJing his first house parties with his father's old turntable, a portable CD player, and a Radio Shack mixer. Scott's been honing his craft in the years since, running San Francisco's successful Binary party, DJing alongside artists such as Pan Pot, Lee Curtiss, and Argenis Brito, and creating music alongside collaborators Jason Short, Alland Byallo, and Emilio Orlandi. Now he's ready to open the floodgates. "I want to create dance-floor friendly, funky, jacking, sonically dexterous, soulful music," he says. "I want to make a crowd tear up, as well as pump their fists."

About Clairity :
Claire Evans White aka Dj Clairity started her career in the electronic music industry in 1997, djing at local events and clubs in Sonoma County. She quickly adapted to the San Francisco scene and moved there in 2000. Upon moving she started throwing her own and throwing with techno events in SF. Such as Sequence, Scatter, Impulse, Minimal Mondays, Synapse, Unmade, Teknotika SF and other one time events all over the bay area. Though Claire is mainly a hard techno dj, in 2003 she began spinning minimal techno and micro. Playing along side such djs and performers as: Adam X, Dietrich Shonoman, Jon Williams, Chris Jackson, Twerk, Mochipet, Broker Dealer, Cybrid, Forest Green and many others. There will be mixes and tracks coming soon so bare with, and hopefully some events where she will be playing in the bay area.. Also be looking for events from her side project Theta Records.
