GLIMPSE is coming this Saturday, May 19th 2012. Featuring one of Indonesia's best multi-talented secret weapon:

JONATHAN KUSUMA

A multi-instrumentalist, song writer, and graphic artist Jonathan Kusuma, known as the half blood of Space System's duo, has never been stop exploring the sound of music, or the other way around, since his teenage days up to this present. His approach in music producing, performing, or even in DJ-ing seems to reflect his mastery of many aspects of his life experience and musical devotion.

The journey starts back from the late 90's when he used to be in a band playing from rock, metal, punk to electronic, and performed in various events, either as a vocalist, a bassist, or a sequencer programmer. Then came his next big step by forming an electronic group called Space System in 2005, followed by joining Rhythm Salad Music Clinic in 2008, he soon discovered how music has play a great role in his searching for peacefulness. Kusuma's debut release titled "Cycle" (Space.Rec, 2009), "Misi - Ep" (Space.Rec, 2010), "Days Are Numbered / Monyet Kota" (Space.Rec, 2010), and "Mixed Signals – EP" (Space.Rec, 2011) has shown his musical vision growing bigger and broader.

Despite the early age Jonathan Kusuma has shown lots of potentials through their intricate musical style and has caught the attention of DJ/producers/media from all over the world.

As quoted by Ivan Smagghe (France) and played on Beats In Space:
"I recently discovered your MISI ep, a bit late and it is one of the most original record I have heard in a long long time... really really"

[Music Comes Home at the Marcy Hotel]

In early 2005, Brooklyn based DJ team Wolf + Lamb set out to build their own DIY dance venue. The duo stumbled upon an old machine shop in Williamsburg and transformed it into what is now known as the Marcy Hotel — a fictitious hotel and underground club.

Music Comes Home at the Marcy Hotel

There's a steady hum in the air while a faint disco beat emerges from the far end of the loft. The crowd teeming within it is full of lulling conversation regarding "her boring weekend back home in France," or "the steady decline of his relationship ever since he's moved to New York." People are lining up at the makeshift wood-pallet bar to loosen up with not-so-fancy champagne and even less extravagant beer. A few old friends are lounging on 1950s style sofas under the factory windows, which peer into the dimly lit dance floor where Zev and Gadi (a.k.a. Wolf + Lamb) have been playing an after-hours deep house set. For the better part of a decade, this has been one of Brooklyn's best kept secrets for underground dance music: the Marcy Hotel. Disco balls, infinity mirror lightboxes, and salvaged theater chandeliers are all a part of the art and artifice that contribute to the Williamsburg loft turned makeshift dance club, which has held some of the most memorable parties since its inception.

In early 2005, after DJing and hosting dance parties for a couple of years, we set out to build our own venue. We found an old machine shop in a shady part of town and built it into the Marcy Hotel — a fictitious hotel and underground club. It took us and friends over 6 months to build the place using garbage and old things we found lying around. We discovered local crews liked dumping wooden pallets over by the highway across the street from the Marcy — those became the bars and counters.



A friend had purchased a dilapidated movie theater, and we promptly showed up with a truck to loot the place for raw materials.



Old movie scores on player piano paper made warm lighting panels.



Gadi spent four days grinding down layers of paint from the walls to reveal the original luster for the entrance-way.
Deniz Kurtel, friend and artist from our label, strung together old wire nuts and lugs to make industrial growths.

The two giant spools of a film rewinder made for delicate chandeliers in the front reception and the dance room.



The care and love we all put into the place over the years lent itself to the feeling of the Marcy — that you are in someone's living room, with a group of friends you've known for a long time. We bring people together from New York, from Burning Man, from all over the world to experience our music in its original setting. The dance floor turns back into the label's main studio once the people are gone.

We opened in 2005 with sheet rock walls, but when we renovated in 2008, we realized the new dance room's walls needed wood to get that deep and soulful sound. We lined the walls, floor to ceiling, in 80-year-old Catskill pine planks from a handball court the city had torn down. After years of wear and tear, the piano paper settled comfortably as wallpaper in the lounge.





You can't spend a night at The Marcy without some beats.

Toxicology reports found a heroin substitute in the systems of Shadow and Chelmers, who died soon after a massive party at the amusement park where they lived.

The toxicology reports are in and now we know: Two dolphins in Switzerland died from a drug overdose.

Shadow and Chelmers, residents of the Connyland Marine Park in northeast Switzerland, died within five days of each other in November — soon after the area adjacent to their tank was rented out for a weekend rave. Initial speculation surmised that the loud music stressed the dolphins, leading to a weakened immune system and eventually death. But an autopsy revealed that a heroin substitute was the real culprit.

Toxicology reports from a forensics institute in St. Gallen, Switzerland, were just released and show the two dolphins had buprenorphine, a heroin substitute, in their urine, according to the Daily Mail. Reports speculate that the substance may have been dumped in the tank during the rave, accidentally or as a practical joke.

Experts believe the drug plays tricks on a dolphins' brain, switching off the monitor telling them they need to surface for air; the effects certainly sound terrifying. Connyland dolphin keeper Nadja Gasser told the Daily Mail that trainers noticed Chelmers simply drifting underwater and in obvious trouble. "We tried to hold him. He was shaking all over and was foaming at the mouth," she said. Trainers worked unsuccessfully for an hour in an attempt to rescue the dolphin.
