Interview: Mochipet storms Shanghai

Interviewed by Michelle Olson Mochipet joins Antidote for a China tour, hitting Shanghai’s Shelter club on Saturday, Aug.15, 2009. Mochipet is a renowned electronic music producer on a world tour. His style is mad eclectic and delightfully hard to define, tongue-in-check and always ahead of the game. We swapped emails with him during a rare week of rest in his California home.

Talking Pints: Pet Sounds – Mochipet plays MAO

Mochipet, or David Yang to his rocket-scientist dad, uprooted from Taiwan to California as a child. Growing up in the US, Mochipet got into music and was soon mixing it all up, as can be heard on his recent album Master P on Atari, which you can hear at MAO Livehouse on Saturday. It’s RMB 60. We caught up with him for the scoop on dinosaurs and dodgy fans.

Godzilla should not be destroyed, he should be studied – By Morgan Short, Aug 10, 09

“You have your fear, which might become reality; and you have Godzilla, which IS reality.”
-Ogata from Godzilla, King of the Monsters (1956)

Did you know in the original planning stages of Godzilla back in the mid 1950s, he was described as a cross between a “gorilla” and a “whale”? And that’s where his name comes from? “Gojira (ゴジラ) is a combination of two Japanese words: gorira (ゴリラ lit. “gorilla”), and kujira (鯨 (くじら) lit. “whale”).”

Chrome Kids Presents Easy E on Atari Featuring Mochipet & Dj 0.000001 of Daly City Records

eazyeonatari

Eazy E was the first to admit that he wasn’t exactly a role model. Yet that didn’t stop millions of teenagers kids all across the world looking up to the alter-ego of business brain Eric Wright and agreeing that this was indeed one gangsta muthafucka worthy of respect. Many hardcore Hip-hoppers have since cursed the day that guns, bitches and bling became one of the cornerstones of the movement, but secretly they were never directing their ill feelings towards originators such as Eazy E. Without him Ice Cube would probably still be ripping off the Beastie Boys, Dr Dre might still be wearing make-up and both Yella and MC Ren would have disappeared without trace (okay so that happened anyway but you get the drift). He carried an arsenal of guns bigger than he was, had money coming out of every orifice and pussy falling out of his pockets but still managed to donate millions to charities, and regularly took orphans on field trips. Sadly, in a cruel twist of irony, his passion for ‘pussy’ caught up with him and in 1995 he died of AIDS, leaving a bullet sized hole in the Hip-hop world, and spreading fear across anyone in LA who had neglected to use a condom recently.

“That’s very fucking rude!” Rob Da Bank (BBC Radio 1)

Mochipet in The New York Times

nytimes-logo

The New York Times Reviews Alarm Will Sound Playing Mochipet : “SOMETHING odd and fascinating is happening at the borders of classical music and pop right now. Particularly in new-music circles young musicians are searching for repertory in the pop avant-garde. There were inklings of this in the early 1990s, when arrangements of Frank Zappa pieces turned up in programs by the Meridian Arts Ensemble, the American Composers Orchestra and, in Europe, Ensemble Modern and the Ensemble Intercontemporain. But that seemed only modestly remarkable. Zappa, after all, had been composing symphonic works since the late 1960s, and these transcriptions of his rock works shared the spirit of those scores. And transcriptions of Jimi Hendrix songs by the Kronos Quartet, and Nirvana tracks by the Bang on a Can All-Stars, seemed amusing stunts, offered as encores.”  [       READ MORE__]
