Turntable Tuesday

-Ted Ganung

This week I have a very special song "Moments of Being"  by Flowrian feat.GGooDei. Moments of Being is a super smooth beat with rolling drums, funky basslines, & MC GGooDei flowing over the top with powerful & insightful lyrics. The song was released by the record label Liquid Drumz Music based in London which focuses on the musical side of Drum & Bass. Today happens to be an extra special day because MC GooDei happens to be in New York tonight and will be performing with at the new liquid Drum & Bass party Remedy DNB. 
The Love for the music is what brings us together… It’s what creates the energy in which we all play… 


It reaches deep inside and moves us from the core… It’s that Loving energy that moves us to dance & 


release… Let Our Love for the music radiate all aspects of Our lives.

Cesar & Bruce's wedding

It has been crazy busy since we hit April &  it's been a little challenging finding the time to post our events, but we have lots to bring to our blog in the next few weeks.  Today's feature is our first same sex wedding for Cesar & Bruce.

Cesar & Bruce had their ceremony at the Forest Hills Tennis Club around an Olympic size pool, complete with fountain. Their theatrical reception was fittingly at the Hudson Theater with über DJ Dina Regine (http://www.djdinaregine.com) as the mistress of the mix.  As you can see in the photos, Cesar had a glorious train made of exquisite feathers and sworovski cystals as well as the tulle skirt made for his sweet dog Idina, who was his "maid of honor".  He was a vision of haute couture.

I first heard from Cesar in late March with his dream of having an orchestra perform the Hallelujah Chorus from the Messiah for his entrance.   After confirming that he definitely wanted a chamber orchestra with choir, we got busy rehearsing and made Cesar's vision a reality.   His granted us complete creative license to push the envelope with his first and foremost request that everyone, guests and musicians included have fun.    We had a blast.  

Please see the slide show below with photos courtesy of Matthew Lee from the photography studio CLY Creation. Thanks Matthew!  http://clycreation.com/

"January" the film

I am super excited to report that I was asked by British Producer Jessica Malik and Music Supervisor Sam Mumsford (Sony London) to record the Chopin Nocturne Opus 55, #1 as the "center piece" of the new Thriller  "January" to be released this year.  


The film is produced by the London & LA based film company of "Face Films"  (http://www.facefilms.com/2010/index.htmlwith executive producer Steven Schneider, producer of the “Paranormal Activity” franchise, “The Devil Inside” and “Insidious” as well as the 2012 chilling TV series "The River" on ABC.  Clearly Steven Schneider has his finger on the pulse of the horror genre.  

We will be posting the trailer soon, but in the meantime, here is an excerpt from the recording. ....

Turntable Tuesday

-Ted Ganung


For this edition of Turntable Tuesday I bring you the Video Edit of my original production "Liquid."Full of many different influences, liquid is the synthesis of drum and bass with a new chill, melodic twist. The bass and organ sounds are reminiscent of island reggae which gives the track a relaxed yet heavy groove. Liquid, become the most sucessfull track of disco.hr records, so the label boss DJ Go Cut decided to make a video to give you a full story of how we party and have fun in New York, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Zagreb, and Perth. Enjoy DJ Go Cut's hipnotic voice, and Ted's beats while watching our new video!


gardens in april

It's only the beginning of May and we have already done 2 garden events.  The first being a beautiful bar mitzvah designed by Liz Liberatore & photos by Constance Brukin http://www.constancebrukin.com/.

The weather reports were threatening rain all week, so that is always the big nail biter when it comes to garden parties.  There always needs to be a back-up plan that provides warmth and coverage for guests and vendors alike.  The gods were with us on April 29th and we had a picture perfect day.

We provided piano & string quartet for prelude to the ceremony.  Then we took over for the cocktail hour ending it with a slamming horah where we performed together with tracks from our own DJ/producer, Ted Ganung. Ted rocked this party for the next 3 hours and not only pleased the adults but kept the kids on the dance floor pumping their fists in the air.

more ira lippke & the metropolitan club

I adore working at the metropolitan club and it's a double yummy when the photographer is Ira Lippke.  This bride and groom were classic but really playful.  The repertoire they chose took me by surprise and it was so much fun to play & arrange.   Total Entertainment & Fredi Ross provided all the music which rocked the night away.

We were:  piano & string quartet.  All prelude music was romantic filmscore

Bridal Party
Somebody to Love - Queen

Groom & His parents:
In Your Eye's - Peter Gabriel
