REWINDW/ Para One

As I mentioned before, we did interviews with some of the guys from Institubes Paris Terror Club a few months ago. Here's Para One's interview from that night. You probably didn't know he did films on the side for fun besides music, huh? Well he has a great documentary project for the Institubes team right now called HOOLIGAN DISCO. Check it out, it's really interesting. You can catch him and Surkin performing tomorrow here in New York!

Institubes - One More Song - episode 1: Hooligan Disco



We had the opportunity to interview the Institubes guys a few months ago for the site (yes, the extended interviews will be posted...don't worry). While we were filming I noticed Para One had a ultra-compact camera (you'll see it in the videos), documenting every little tid bit of their hang out.

If you didn't know, Para One was (and still is) a film maker. Most interviews don't go into it as folks focus on his music production side. But he's a true artist with multiple hats and his latest piece, ONE MORE SONG, documents a 3 week tour the Institubes guys did here in the United States. Starting in New York and ending in LA; Surkin, Drop The Lime (or Curses!), Orgasmic, and Para One himself search for the perfect party.

The video is extremely well edited, and is described as "a road movie of sorts, a documentary on the life of young musicians on tour, a truthful account of their quest for endless skies and perfect parties."

Below is One More Song, the first episode, in its entirety.

REWINDW/ CUT NYC 3-Year Anniversary - Institubes Paris Terror Club





Today we're starting a new feature on Subdrive called REWINDW/. You'll be seeing interviews with DJs, producers, designers, promoters, etc. The first is about Cut NYC's 3-year anniversary from a few weeks ago. Shark and The Captain were cool enough to let us come in and film the party and talk to them about how Cut came to be. As a bonus you'll hear from Para One, Surkin, and Bobmo of Institubes talking about life, music, and...Bob Marley?

The interviews were so good I'm posting all three as separate videos over the next week.

So here's the first part of the CUT NYC 3-year anniversary, it's a sit down with Shark of CUT discussing the party, the scene, and other things. If you're subscribed on the podcast you should receive all the videos automagically.

View photos from the party here.
