My NLG 0,02: Freeform was indeed beautiful in sounds, very Free of form and not very danceable. I have the say I respect the guys guts. No DATs involved btw Helen, for the technology trainspotters: Atari, seck mixer, sampler (FZ1 I think) and antoher sampler. Some small fx. B12 was the bomb. No pretentions, just beautiful funky techno. Danced my butt off ! Equip: JV 1080 Akai S 2000/2800/3000XL (one of those), Atari, 2 mackie 1604s, K1r, 909, some fx. One of the tracks had a very long intro due to Cubase going into deep space (one of the guys was going "No ! No! NO! F**k that ! No No NO! :)). He cured it by stop very briefly and starting again.. It was good fun to see them looking down at their equipment preparing a break and then looking up and smiling at the hall when they introduced a little joke break. Autechre: Beautiful. Definitley. Couldn't get into the rythms though. I second Passetti's comments. Equip: Very minimal: EPS 16 plus, MMT 8, R8, 2 fx, mackie mixer ! The stage was dark but the lights in the hall should have been cut as well... No sense in some scans waving to this music. About DJ Chantal: I liked it.. No mixing involved so she couldn't be said to have bad mixing qualities ! Maybe she relied a bit too much on old school tracks. RAC 's DJ set was good: crwative quality techno all the way. Apparently a lot more (LOW) ppl were there than I talked to. At the next lowlands.event maybe we can all wear some identifier ? Like a specially desgined (LOW) party hat ? ;) Nice meeting Peel Seamus for the "first" time IRL. Got we must have gone to the same parties a lot in the old days man ! The deal is on, my e64 is waiting Parting comments: How about that typical Paradiso style: music lovers watching the show, press and industry in the lobby :) -- "No corporation will ever pay a creator enough to sue them successfully." -Dave Sim, creator of Cerebus Allert Aalders - Big Time Concepts - allert@knoware.nl - KoX
