What did anybody else think of this show? I saw them in LA with a friend last Thursday and we were really stunned...AGF has got to be the future pin-up queen of the laptop set, that's all I can say, with killer DSP chops, a beautiful voice, a sure hand on the mixer, and a wardrobe straight out of Antonioni's 'Blow Up'..oh and the music was great too! A really well-paced show too: a microsound/abstract set from AGF playing two laptops and a mixer, then an ambient set from Vlad more in the vein of some of his ambient CDs, then some slow groove tracks together with AGF, who sang and triggered effects on her voice, and then finally some of the more danceable Luomo tracks later. What a night...the music is still echoing in my mind on Sunday afternoon... Those Luomo dance grooves are amazing, somehow he makes it sound like the rhythms are loosely held together with rubber bands or something rather than rigidly sequenced...sounds like he's got a whole troupe of percussionists inside his computer.
