They'll be a blech-report at
http://www.clark.net/pub/buh/BlechNY/ very soon..
Will have pics that I took at the party, and I'm gonna try to get more pics..
and I put in quite some humor into the report ;)
but here's a mini-review :D
I only heard AFX, Autechre, Freeform and Mark Broom.. the rest of time I didn't
really know who it was playing. It was a bit of a dissapointment, as there was
no warp merchandise and you couldn't meet afx, at least I didn't get to I
suppose you could at one point, but I never knew about it.
anyhow, all of the music was really great, but I can tell you a few things
about the dj's/live performers:
autechre - should have done some more 'autechre' stuff and not typical
acid/house type stuff. it was not too typical, but it certainly wasn't the
stuff we're all used to from Autechre.
mark broom - really great. I thought this was AFX at first, since he was
supposed to play at 3:30am, but they put him on coz Richard got boo'ed off, since
he came on right after Autechre, I guess the ppl just weren't ready for too
much of that kind of music. so AFX was pushed back to 5:30am. was pretty much
house or trance, can't remmeber exactly.
afx - totally AWESOME =) he played mostly drum'n'bass and noisy loud stuff,
lots of high-pitched noise and distortion.. totally wicked.. one girl held her
ears shut =) he kind of ping ponged tracks.. drum'n'bass, noisy, d&b, noisy,
etc.. the next morning I bought Arcon 2: The Beckoning/Slyland which was played
by Richard.
I heard that Jimi Tenor brought the house down, but unfortunately I never heard
him play :(
vampiros lesbos brought his gf there who stripped for all the party-goers, but
I don't remember the music that much. just got a glimpse of the stripper who
later I learned was the dj's (franco's) gf..
laters..
