this time it´s about "redefining the now"
feat.:
FUCK SAD SONGS AND SLOW JAMS, THIS IS GO CHIC
live directly from taiwan!
Go Chic has played with such notable acts as Peaches(CA), Vicarious Bliss(ED BANGER FR), Dandi Wind(CA), Shitdisco(DIM MAK UK), Death is Not My Aim(JP), etc.
Go Chic was invited to play at SXSW festival in Austin TX and Fuji Rock festival in Japan, 2010. Go Chic was nominated for "Best Pop Song", "Best Electro/Dance Song", "Most Mind-blowing Music Video" by AVIMA 2010(Asia Pacific VOICE Independent Music Video Awards). Won "Best Genre-Bending Act" and the "Tipped 2 Be The Next Big Thing" award by AVIMA 2010.
Biography:
Go Chic describes their music as “Electro-Hyphy-Chicks, Hybridized Punk-Blues-Rock” or “sound like Peaches, CSS, Le Tigre”. However, it is far too simple to depict them as merely an electro punk band after listening to their debut album- I am Confused. Such as my favorite track “2010”, puts together electro punk/electro-garage-rock elements that sound like the spark of when Soulwax meets Garbage. 8-Bit inspired tunes remind me of the 8-Bit Thrash craze led by Crystal Castles. Striding on the steps of Disco-Funk is “Dance With Her”, a perfect tribute to the Disco Punk spirit of DFA. Not to mention “We’re All Lovers & Runners”, where they have a sniff of 80’s New Wave, which is the “happiest” track in this album.
I am Confused, takes us through a delightful experience back in the 90’s indie scene, where vocalist Ariel raps like Princess Superstar and at the same time captivates us with a voice that wonderfully parodies Shirley Manson’s(Garbage). The amazing energy that comes out of every song reminds me of the “New Wave of New Wave” Elastica that emerged from the Pre-Britpop days and has every ability to rise as the leading Riot Girrrlz of today!!!

TRANCEFORMATION OF VIOLENCE
A GUIDE TO VOODOO-PERFORMANCE
Watch out! You might get what you´re after. Watch your Step! There might be holes on the stage. abysses of jealousy and perfidy. the floor we are walking on is a fragile surface. It´s the seperator between good and bad, top or flop, in and out, dead or alive. Most white-middle-class-girls and boys don´t realize: bild, deaf and tomb concerning the dark side of performance, they´re maybe in the performance-zone- but never able to see the real performance. It´s Voodoo-time, baby! But not being aware of holes does not protect you from stepping into them- and that´s bad bad bad. another weak and pale performance-zombie. to show your performative strength, your PERFORMANCE POWER: first look intensly at the floor. Concentrate. Watch. AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! Repeat this--- AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! Now your eyes are open. you see one to five holes on stage. Some people in the audience are responsible for them. there are evil spirits. They wait for you to step into a hole- but you don´t. you see it, you are cat-eyed- - - you walk towards the hole - fleet-foaded, clever and with pleasure you avoid the trap - - - one after the other – each time you outwit your grudger, you donate a big SMILE to him/her. A BIG BIG BIG SMILE. You got the power. You are the performer. AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! Like a crocodile in the sun you show your teeth. Your smile is a bite. Your smile is a slap right-in-the-face. You are AME ZANGBêTô! You call the spirits of the suffragettes who invented performance art, you are the sister of marina abramovic, you are an african vampirette, you are yoko onos brother. You are AME ZANGBêTô! Cursed and proud, stinky and loud! Tit-prints are part of art, your tits are art, your ass is art: prost! You already reached the next level, you are a top-drawer: COU-COU BANBA, you got your sacrifices prepared, COU COU BANBA, the rhythm starts. The beat is happening – right inside of me. COU COU BANBA. You need fellowship? You feel the energy emerging – you HAVE company! Uuuups- a hole again. SMILE. BIG SMILE. BIG BIG SMILE. Crocodile Dundee. YIP! You make a little jig. And another one. Just for the show. Just for you and me and everybody we know and we will never meet again. Just for this special moment which is already history. BAéROUé is now with you. The power of love, the power of destruction, it´s a blink, the heartbeat of a butterfly- it´s a bring-in, not a take-away. BAéROUé ASSIEOUSSIRE. You are vegetarian and asked the cameraman for help and he brought the chicken-bones from last night´s family dinner. You have your props prepared. You share your intoxicants with the audience. You are the master of ceremonies. You share the ticket to eye of the hurricane. Wodka is the lubricant. The audience becomes plushed- the rhythm becomes trance. The chicks start to dance themselves to death. Your edges begin to blurr. BAéROUé! BAéROUé! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! AME ZANGBêTô! Anat is jerking, faustine is frothing, melissa is the house and alex is on the roof, merché is cross-eyed. WE FORGOT THE EGGS! WHERE ARE THE EGGS? WE HAD TO CRUSH THE EGGS ON OUR FOREHEADS. We take the eggs out of the hole- we mash them on our heads, the yolk tastes sweet. The necklace of chicken-bones dangles around our necks. We fetch the capes and are ready for the grande FINALE: COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI COMIEN GOUGNON AYI

Chicks on Speed and the e-shoe
Dear Shaded Viewers,
You are getting a look at the first wireless High heeled shoe guitar, made in collaboration with Siberian born shoe designer Max Kibardin and Hangar.org. The shoes will be unveiled alongside Chicks on Speed's collection of self made 'Objekt Instruments"- Cigar Box Synthesizers, super suits' with sewn-in body sensors that trigger audio/video samples, 2 hats made in collaboration with Christophe Coppins and Hangar.org, based on illuminated drawings of Hildegard von Bingen, a 12th century Christian mystic who received visions, composed ethereal airs, performed healing and even founded covents. The hats transmit the utterances of their wearers by way of microphones and speakers: the contemporary beatified woman can amass her own power tools, or so it seems.

GIRL MONSTER # 9: genius inventor goddess
YIP YIP! Girl Monster # 9: GENIUS INVENTOR GODDESS:: Die Chicks on Speed kuratieren die feministisch-explosive Mischung aus Performance, Video, Theorie, Musik, Unterhaltung und Action! Diesmal gekrönt durch die Performance INTEGRATION: IMPOSSIBLE von Tanja Ostojic. Die serbische Künstlerin verursachte einen handfesten Kunstskandal mit einer Persiflage auf Courbets URSPRUNG DER WELT – ihrem Beitrag zur Werbung für die Österreichische EU-Präsidentschaft. Mit ihren kompromisslosen Arbeiten kommentiert sie das Machtgefälle zwischen Mann und Frau und zwischen der „alten“ und der „neuen“ EU.
Außerdem: Videoscreening, kuratiert von Margit Czenki, feministische Filmemacherin, Aktivistin und Künstlerin. Und: Den musikalischen Soundtrack liefert die Berliner Techno-Legende DJ Aroma mit MC Quio, die in ihren Live-Sets Techno-Sounds, House und live-Elemente zu einem unvorhersehbaren Ganzen vermischt.
ALLES DAS AM 20.3. / 20:30 h / Kampmagel / DON´T MISS!!!!!!
Über Tanja Ostojic: Tanja Ostojic
* 1972 in Jugoslawien; M.A. der Kunstakademie Belgrad, 1998, und der École Regionale des Beaux-Arts, Nantes (F). Ostojić ist eine Nomadin, die in Europa als unabhängige und interdisziplinäre Performance-Künstlerin lebt. Sie untersucht soziale Konfigurationen und Machtverhältnisse und setzt sich selbst als Figur in situationistischen Performances ein und nutzt als Medien Anzeigen, Videos, Fotos, Flyer, Poster, Internet, Installationen, Workshops und Bücher. Sie ist eine der GründerInnen der unabhängigen Künstlervereinigung Remont in Belgrad.
