Good luck trying to find a club my friend. Most "advertised" clubs, and so
called "underground" venues can't deal with heavy experimental head shit.
Too many promoters have there heads up their arse, they have the 4/4 beat
etched in their tiny brains, and are not willing to risk a night devoted
to IDM artists as such.
You have to communicate with us here on the list to get the "real shit".
Hopefully, if more people can get a bit openminded, BDP-AFX-B12 & others
will get more club playing time. Until then, keep listening to pirate radio,
and support your local IDM-friendly DJ's in your area...
I'm one of them, but I can't get at least 100 or more completely
open-minded individuals to back me up...
How do you think Electrifying Mojo became popular?
Oh, and buy vinyl...(Huh huh huh!)
