Out Now: Taan Newjam – ACTIONDISCO
October 27th, 2010

Taan´s first single DISCO GUY set the pace and the album is pursuing this direction: Disco House exploring the diverse influences of its producer. High energy music and very danceable electronic clubtunes which combine elements of House, Hip-Hop, Disco, Funk and Electro. He brings together funky grooves and loops with heavy and dirty basslines with old-school 80s synths and chopped up vocals and vocoder-lines.

With the release of Taan Newjam’s first single “Disco Guy” we now add something to this list. The title gives you a good idea of the musical direction – pure Disco House.

Nhan & Taan @ Club Studio Würzburg, 2010/01/02
March 23rd, 2010

As you can see the two electro monks started the western new year with lots of love for the ladies – and they got some love back from them. They not only spread joy, happiness and enlightment but also their sticker and trademark ricehats – and they instantly found new friends.

A big shout out goes to Henk & Blitzer for bringing the Asian brotherhood to Würzburg!

Nhan & Taan @ Xlib Club Kiev, Ukraine 2009-11-13
March 23rd, 2010

Their numerous missions led Nhan & Taan to almost every corner in the Land of the rising sun. One of their recent duties brought them to Kiev. The Tosho Shop & Bard assigned the Ricehat Brothers with a delicate mission in the cold east.  Being trained in the hardest monastry in the south east, managing the Ukranian cold didnt´t get in the way of fulfilling their order.

Nhan & Taan DJ Set @ Rodeo Berlin, 2010-02-19
February 23rd, 2010

Freshly trained from a bootcamp in the Himalayan mountains, Nhan & Taan pooled forces to bring their musical wisdom to the western hemisphere. As it is supposed for real Ricehat Brothers, they fulfilled their mission back to back and the result was an almost five hour long lession in the art of House.

The roof of the Rodeo Club in Berlin was almost set on fire as their iron fists dropped one hot tune after the other …

Stiletto Mafia
February 18th, 2010

When not producing his latest Disco-Anthems, Urbasian´s finest Taan Newjam is working for the Mafia. Well, not “the” Mafia (and if he was, we wouldn´t tell you) but Berlin´s own Stiletto Mafia.

Created by artist Stefan Heuser and Elke Volk, the Stiletto Mafia is a virtual photo narrative leaving its complete story to the fantasy of the viewer. Alongside fine gentlemen such as Taan Newjam, Smiley Baldwin, Patrice Bouedibela, Marcus Trojan and Till Harter, beautiful women commit crimes of excess for the greater good: Fernanda Brandao, Jenny Doll and Tina Schürmann are potrayed in comic book shots, showing the dark and dense side of Berlin with their strong contrasts in lighting immediately evoking film Noir-like sceneries.

The greater good, the protagonist of the Stiletto Mafia are fighting for, is equally present in reality: All participants work for free and the proceedings are donated to the Arche Children´s Project.

Check out the Stiletto Mafia Berlin Shooting (german):
