Just a note that Alec Empire didn't fuck with audience when he played in SF
on Monday like he apparently did in LA. Just straight up hardcore, digital
and otherwise, although I thought the point at which he was playing the
paper labels on the records was a bit much. At any rate, he didn't take any
piss. When I started doing a techno club I never expected to see a mosh pit
there...
Shizuo is the other guy mentioned - his CD is worth checking out, but his
tendancy to clip every possible input kept the live translation from
working as well. I'm by no means a fan of the genre, but Shizuo does some
interesting tracks and usually keeps from sliding into angst-noise monotony.
