To connect the dots between the Pure Rave Project and the House of Lobkowicz’ NFCastle 23’, Pure Rave has created a unique 1/1 piece using the sonic biography of Antonín Dvořák. The piece was created using the latest techniques outlined in the Pure Rave Manifesto for Non-DJ-Native tools. More info about Pure Rave: Pure Rave is a collective based in Detroit, Michigan, is an ongoing experiment in chance dance". Using various prepared turntablesdamaged recordsthe occasional drum machinerudimentary CDDJ loopsand 133.33 bpm loops. The effect is an indeterminate arrangement of patterns and rhythmic sonic collage. Real-time experimentation with the goal of hitting your pleasure center for whatever your brain thinks is interesting. Set amidst the context of contemporary Detroit electronic musicthe group has no trouble finding endless bins of trashed Midwestern dance records and no problem hosing them off in the front yard of their apartment building. Cheap or free turntables of questionable condition are also bountiful in Detroit.
