Switched On: Cerrone
Thursday 8 June from 8pm to 11pm
Few artists can claim to be truly genre-defining, but Cerrone is undoubtedly one of them. A pioneer of the French filter sound and a revered producer amongst the likes of Larry Levan, Nile Rodgers and Francois K, Cerrone has remained a legend of the genre from it’s inception to it’s revival. Sampled by everyone from Daft Punk to Run DMC, the drummer and DJ behind SuperNature and Love In C Minor is seemingly just getting started.
His latest single, A Part of You, samples the vocals from You & Me, the 2013 hit by acclaimed UK duo Disclosure, which was also famously remixed by Flume. The single itself was a reworking of the single House Of The Rising Sun, made by Cerrone in 1977. For his first ever Australian shows, Cerrone will perform a live audio-visual show with vocalist Brendan Reilly (Disclosure, Basement Jaxx).
"His contribution to the whole electronic-disco-dance music may be as important as Giorgio Moroder, as Kraftwerk." - Nile Rodgers on Cerrone
