>Got a chance to see Twine and others live over the weekend at
>the once.twice.festival in Baltimore. The festival was a 2 day
>affair at different venues that featured a nice variety of experimental
>electronica.
>
>I missed some of the earlier acts but caught an act that called
>himself Diskette. Interesting set of extremely cut up beats
>and abstract sounds.
>
>Next up was Mora, another act I was not familiar with. 3 guys
>behind laptops creating a very fascinating textural drone that
>slowly morphed in shape as the piece went on.
>
>Next up was the Twine set (or I should say Twine East since it
>was only Greg). Incredible set of experimental cut up beats
>interspersed with layers of ambience. All 70 or so people in
>the club were transfixed at the goings on and the people upstairs
>were slowly trickling down the steps as the set went on.
>
>After Twine, and without a break, While took the stage and picked
>up where Twine left off, and tore the house down. A few tracks
>I was not familiar with and 1 or 2 that sounded like they were
>variations on the "Lock" album. Ambiences, electronic melodies
>and cut up beats and sequences ala Lackluster and the like.
>
>Downside to the overall show was that each artist only got 25
>minutes or so, but 7 "bands" for $7, what do you expect. I was
>also promised visuals with the Twine set and there were none,
>except Greg's face glowing behind the monitor which was actually
>pretty cool. I just wish we could get more talent like this
>in the Baltimore area on a regular basis.
