Dj Murphy tribute on Livesets.com - Friday!

I posted this in my techno thread but for those who won't see it.. I have been looking forward to this Livesets tribute for awhile now... no need to register to tune in, a full day of sets will be broadcast... old and new.

Murphy is very happy about this too.. it is cute.. hehe

Great pumpin' friday beats before the weekend

After many pleads from various LiveSets members, we decided it is time for Brazil's most popular techno DJ, DJ Murphy.

Marcos Santos aka Dj Murphy is often acclaimed as the most technically skilled current techno DJ to emerge from Brazil. This guy headlines the main techno raves in S�o Paulo and everyone who has a chance to listen to his devastating legendary trademark mixes understands why he is one of the most in demand DJs in Brazil - don't be surprised to see how he expresses his perfect skills on three or four decks. If you have never seen a technohead doing the mixing, tricks and scratches in an astonishing level of quality comparable to the likes of Dave Clarke, Cristian Varela and Space Djz, you have not heard DJ Murphy spinning yet.

Along with his mates Ana and David (Kne'Deep's Pet Duo), he takes up residence on fridays at �A L�ca�, a very good reference club in S�o Paulo. He also had a chance to be the only DJ from Latin America spinning at the 2001 World Electronic Music Festival, in Canada; people loved his mix, which led him to do an extra three-hours presentation on the day after. As Murphy continues to affirm his position amongst the heavyweights, we keep affirming that he is a treasure who will certainly be discovered soon by the rest of the world. Murphy displays the skills that very few in this planet possess. Currently spending some time experimenting with his studio equipment, he has already released some of his tracks - "Afinidade", on Brazil's Amp Mtv Second Compilation (alongside tracks such as Mau Mau's "Space Funk" and Renato Cohen's "Pontap�") and "Non Sense", on an independent Brazilian label called Brasil Com S.

Both won him support from the brazilian media�s leading music publications, websites and DJs alike. Murphy, both djing and producing, is a synonym for excellent hard techno peppered with groove and funk. Just welcome his productions into your case. Let him add a piece of his vibe to the energy that flows through the crowds you pull.

So it start at 12 noon eastern time?

Posted by Kate Manus on Aug-25-2006 01:23:

actually.. I should have probably mentioned that isn't our time... when I wake up on Friday mornings they have already started the tributes.. so I imagine it will probably start around 6 or 7 am our time.

Allright so ill be attempting to wake up early tommorow, its worth it

I still hope to see him play Canada sooner rather than later.. time will tell!
He mentioned WEMF in 2001 was his first international gig... I think it is only fitting he return.

This guy has some skills on the decks
Id like to see him here in Canada but I don't think its gonna happen here in Montreal anytime soon. Gonna need to promote him a bit and hopefully it will catch a promoters attention.

Posted by Kate Manus on Aug-25-2006 10:30:

yay! listening to it now.

Nacht: it can happen... he knows if he would be playing in Canada it would be more for the exposure than rocking a 1500 person club! The key is to find a second gig for him in Toronto or maybe the US.

Chooned in as well and I'm loving these pounding grooved up beats.
I don't see Murphy being the main DJ for the night, not because he doesnt have the skills but because he isnt well known. I think a well known to Canadians techno dj with Murphy would be perfect.

I agree it would be ideal to have him play with another headliner who is a bigger name in Canada... but unfortunately that means quite a bit more money to make the show happen.
When I first thought of this idea I thought Preach & Murphy would have been a great combo!

I just can't ri$k this all on my own
saving my pennies to move overseas in March!
