chris moore (while) and chris coady (diskette) are from baltimore and have
expressed similar regards...that there is no place/no-one doing
IDM/electronic shows in the DC/balto area. so yes please take BVL's advice
and set some stuff up yourself...after you find a place and some acts
etc...you'll need to promote your ass off, and pull in every favor that is
owed, but it looks like that area is ripe for someone to hit it up.
the red-room is in baltimore, they do the high-zero fest...more on the
avant-music side of things and i know that richard chartier has a weekly
event on sundays in DC, IDM and microsound stuff, and i am aware of at least
one IDM dj type night in baltimore...forget who does it but the guys who run
it post on here quite a bit. but anyhow these are some ppl you can hook up
with if the desire to get the scene going in the DC/balto area...also a guy
named jason urick was doing some stuff awhile back, he set up the once.twice
fest last year.
here is some contact info:
chartier@3particles.com richard chartier
room_temp@hotmail.com jason urick

hope this helps and goodluck.
