HOUSE / TECHNO INTEC DIGITAL WITH CARL COX AND JON RUNDELL The Arches, Glasgow, Fri 12 Sep
Still undeniably one of the biggest names in house, it’s Carl Cox’s collaboration with Jon Rundell, himself now one of the biggest names in techno, which has kept him busiest over the past three years, and the guise under which they appear at the Arches this September. Relaunching the label in 2009 (after bowing out on a high in 2006), the pair released the second Pure Intec
mix last year after a nine-year gap, cementing – if proof were ever needed – their ethos of discovering and celebrating the freshest, most exciting techno emerging across the world. Great friends as well as business partners, their closeness is most apparent in their back-to-back sets –
most notably this summer at Cox’s Music Is Revolution parties at Space, Ibiza. ‘When it’s about work it’s as professional as it gets, but we still manage to make sure we enjoy it at the same time. I’ve learned loads from him about the art and essence of DJing in all type of situations,’ says Rundell. ‘This year has seen a bit of a corner turn for us,’ he adds. ‘We went all out with some big releases from Carlo Lio, Nicole Moudaber, Dosem, got a remix in from Joseph Capriati, and the momentum just took over. It definitely felt like the last three years’ work were starting to pay off.’ Cox’s appearances at the Arches are, typically, sell-out affairs and the thrill is often down to the sheer energy
in the room, something which Rundell has noticed. ‘I’m not just saying this but the crowds in Scotland have this unique energy to them. Constantly bouncing off the walls to the music, it makes for a great atmosphere. Everyone just goes for it!’ (Rosie Davies)
Favourite club to play It’s impossible to single just one out, but a concrete, golf ball- looking venue in St Petersburg was pretty good this year. The name escapes me.
Favourite city to chill out in I’ve become less of an urbanite nowadays – I’d rather be at the top of a hill on my trials bike with a couple of mates just enjoying the ride and scenery. I’ve had the privilege of visiting many cities but it does take a lot to top Edinburgh for being a relaxed city (or Pee- bles, for that matter).
Favourite city to party in
Manchester or Le Mans. Favourite city to eat in
New York.
Three essential items on your rider
A straight sober driver to the airport (you’d be surprised with all those zombies out there), a decent sound system and some people in the venue. What do you do to relax?
I enjoy riding trials bikes deep into wilderness with a couple of mates and just being in remote places, hanging out. I also enjoy fixing old cars and bikes (anyone got any old trials bikes they want to sell?). Three things you miss when you’re on tour
My daughter, wife and mates.
Three things you don’t miss when you’re on tour Facebook, midges and the Tories.
Track you can’t stop listen- ing to right now Rick James ‘Give It To Me Baby’.
Best part of playing live
All the types of cheese sand- wiches you get to eat on the road, of course. Worst part of playing live
Probably dealing with all the de- lusional fantasists (DFs) and loose cannons (LCs) in club world, of which there are many. ■ Neil Landstrumm plays Sneaky Pete’s, Edinburgh, Thu 21 Aug.
