Busy P does Busy Pictionary

For those that don’t already know who Pedro Winter is; he is known as Busy P, electrohouse DJ, producer, manager and Ed Banger Records owner. He is currently well known for the management of the French-Juggernaut, super-duo Justice, but also manages artists Cassius, SebastiAn, Uffie, DJ Mehdi, Mr Oizo, and Breakbot to just name a few. He is best known for managing the heavy-weight, super-producer, French-master-wizard DJ duo Daft Punk from 1996 to 2008.

As some of you may already know, I will be attending HARD Summer Music Festival 2011 at L.A. Historic State Park this August. Busy P will playing under the moniker Busy Pictionary – to which I am very excited about.

“We’re calling it the Busy Pictionary show and this is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time,” Busy P said of the planned sets. “I will bring So-Me on stage with me and we will plug in his computer while I’m DJing so he can react live to the music I play and what the crowd do. He’ll be drawing, photographing and doing some more stuff that I can’t tell you about now and translating that feeling and the energy onto the screen.”

As excited I am to see his set, I am equally excited to see what So-Me has in store for us — I’m not even sure So-Me knows what he will draw, which is even more tantalizing and a bit titillating, I must say.

I guess this is the space where I will ‘put-out’ and give you something to jam to while you contemplate Busy P and all that surrounds the electronic-music-guru and king of French electronic music networking. Here we have Pedrophilia and To Protect and Entertain (DJ Mehdi 99Rap Mix) from Busy P. Enjoy.

I’m more than excited to see Duck Sauce and Boys Noize again. Back in 2009, the HARD Summer music festival was shut down due to under-aged stupidity and venue issues and I didn’t get to see Chromeo perform, but now I will — very enthralled for this. Ratatat has always been a favorite of mine, glad to see Destructo was able to book them for the show; I don’t know what to expect from the duo live, I’m sure there will be a few curve balls in their set. I am interested to see what Busy P has in store for us in his show called “Busy Pictionary.” A recent favorite of mine, Miike Snow, will have a couple of their band members playing a set; this is almost a must-see for me. Digitalism and Jack Beats are always solid live — so I hear; so I will be making my rounds to check them out if I’m not completely captured from sets by the likes of Duck Sauce and Boys Noize.
