Last seen at Vivid LIVE for their euphoric 16th birthday bash with remove New York new-disco collective Azari & III, Sydney queer institution Club Kooky will now ring in their adult years as Seymour Butz and DJ Gemma bring their dramatic and debaucherous festival finale with an all-out Hercules & Love Affair reunion featuring Aérea Negrot, Kim Ann Foxman and Shaun J Wright.
Flirting between cabaret, electronica, techno and pop, Venezuelan-born, Berlin-based Aérea Negrot first gained an international following for her poperatic performances on Hercules’ sophomore album, Blue Songs (2011). Making her solo debut with the multilingual Arabxilla two years ago, Negrot’s kaleidoscopic vision has taken full flight with a dub-disco haze now found on Ellen Allien’s prestigious Bpitch Control label. ‘From crooning to barking to croaking to narrating’, Aérea continues to bend boundaries until they come full circle…
A New York downtown hero since her early days spinning with the Hercules set, Kim Ann Foxman has garnered a cult following that criss-crosses scenes, cities and countries with a crateful of house-inflected mixes, soulful solo cuts and an endless stream of dramatic remixes – a sumptuous touch from her first release and Kooky anthem ‘Creature’ to her recent rework of The xx’s ‘Sunset’.
Arguably the most flamboyant of the three as ‘a banjee child who loves to twirl and dip’, Chicago’s Shaun J Wright is a deep house siren in the classic vein of spoken word drama with a dreamy diva poise. Most recently heard with a scene-stealing spot on Stereogamus’ ‘Face Love Anew’ (Jonny Seymour & Paul Mac), Shaun and his Love Affair brethren have fully embraced the birthday spirit for a Club Kooky cap off that makes ‘Face Love Anew’ ring forever true…
