okay to bring things back to IDM land...
Richie Devine & Josh from Phoneicia played a pretty killer set in a small
bar in NYC last night. I only found out about the gig a few hours before
thanx to an impulse purchase at Mondo Kim's.
2 Mac laptops running Logic Audio (I think).. great, abstract beats that
kept my brain dancing and some fucked up textures/effects to further
disorient anoyone listening :) Not sure how much of it was 'improv' or
precomposed or a mix since I don't know their music by heart but it
doesn't really matter 'cause they sounded fantastic. And for those going
to the Other Music/Rock the Dock gig tomorrow they promised that the music
would be more fucked up ;)
My favorite momement came when some guys were leaving the bar and were
amazed that Richie & Josh were sitting in front of laptops and not DJing--
"you guys are using computers to spin? cool!"
Worst Moment: Paying $9 for a gin & tonic!
