autechre in berlin? sounds good, I am in berlin for a week in the beginning of april so that would be pretty cool if it fits after I missed them the last time!!!!

[SYRFox]

They're playing there on the 1st of April. The other German gig is in Hamburg, on the 6th

[shabbray2.0]

damn I am there from the 6th to the 11th april....argh, but I can go to hamburg for free because of my university tiket, hell yeah. maybe I am going, will check the prizes, they decide, cause I am nearly broken at the moment, hahahaah <---insane laughter

[SYRFox]

I hope for you they won't be too expensive... it was only 10€ in Lille, which was cool

Hey folks, I am doing some music with forum-member dr eugene feulikkson.

here are two instrumentals I did for our project:

http://soundcloud.com/catsleeph/nightgazer
http://soundcloud.com/catsleeph/panic-button

let me hear what you think!!!!

[_slavo_]

i don't like the bass synth in nightgazer, seems out of tune (but i guess it's on purpose ), but the tune has a nice feel to it, just polish it a bit more.
Panic Button sounds very promising, much like Prefuse 73 and the like. Will mr. felikson be adding another layers to it?

by the way, you know, we also have to do something together? (and by "doing somehing" i don't mean kissing, hugging nor having sex, haha)

[shabbray2.0]

yes its detuned. do you just dont like it or do you think its "wrong"? I wanted to give the overall feel a lil bit more etch, cause I didnt want to let it sound too happy po peppy, hahaha.
cool that you like panic button. and no mr felikson is down for the vocals in that project!
I think it will take both tunes in a complete different direction. looking forward to the results.

and YES we should do it soon (but no hurry, hrhrhr)

[_slavo_]

no, it's not wrong, i just don't like it because it doesn't sound good to my ears in that specific song.

[shabbray2.0]

okay, got it!

[SYRFox]

holidays at least!!
haven't checked your tunes yet shabbray (and i'm listening to like water for chocolate right now), but will do soon for sure!

[shabbray2.0]

good man!
when will I hear your kickass gear in action?

[SYRFox]

Soon! I've recorded a few tracks yesterday but I'm not completely satisfied with them. I'm still working on them, but I'll probably upload some recordings soon.

Also, I don't know if I talked about it already, but I've joined the team for a french webzine, which is awesome. I like the fact that you can basically review anything, so underground things get the same level of visibility as some mainstream pop acts. It's really interesting. So far I've published a review of Broadcast & The Focus Group Investigate Witch Cults Of The Radio Age, and I've just sent my review of the last Pantha Du Prince album. Something's great is that I can get free tickets for shows... I'm seeing many shows lately so that's really neat
I've been asked to interview Dan Le Sac though, I'm not quite sure whether I'll do it or not ... I'm a bit afraid that I won't be able to understand his english accent, and I'm not experienced with conducting interviews... we'll see.

Also, I'll be in Brussels with my pal TheFoxBen again this week end. Can't wait. We're gonna see Autechre + King Midas Sound, and then Mount Eerie + Fuck Buttons + 65daysofstatic + Three Trapped Tigers + Toman, and then we'll go to Lille and see Mulatu Atsatke & The Heliocentrics. How awesome is this!

[SYRFox]

Hi everyone.
Damn I love that Mayer Hawthorne album.

[_slavo_]

Oh, our old thread.
nice.

[SYRFox]

Yes ! For some reason it seemed more appropriate than Ink.'s (let's adapt ourselves to her new nick) thread. For some reason I fell on the twin thread (I want to get bitten a few days ago, it was fun).
But yeah. What's the job you've been headhunted for about?

[_slavo_]

It's the same I do now (media agency) but with more responsibility and for more cash.
i am going to bed now, mon cheri, i'm too tired.
good night man!

[SYRFox]

 

ahah, have a good night too man. i'm gonna enjoy my last holiday night listening to some music... don't want to work.
anyway, good night.

[nicfit]
