>Just wanted to say that last night's /bin event here in Chicago >at Hothouse was fantastic. A gorgeous venue with interesting >artwork on every wall, and all of the performers and DJ's did >really well. I'd only heard a few Funkstorung piece prior to >this so it ended up being a great live showcase of their work. >Lexaunculpt was also fantastic, quite a variety of sounds. >Three cheers for Mike at /bin ... hipip!! :-) AGREED! The braindance was definitely in full effect last nite! I spoke to Michael and Chris from Funkstorung for a few minutes (gave me a chance to brush up on my German). Both were extremely nice. Michael confirmed that the Demon EPs will coming out on CD with new tracks, minus the remixes -so hang on to your 12"s. I may be repeating old news, but their album will be on K7! Things with Yo Mama or One Little Indian didn't happen. The album will indeed have their take on hip-hop, with a female rapper from Munich. Spoke a little too about their lack of involvement on the MASK 300-500 EPs. According to Chris, after 200 came out, they kept calling Andy @ SKAM to set up the next one. Andy never returned their calls, yet the MASKs kept coming out. Anyway it was a great show, with a good vibe. Looking forward to Phoenecia and Trapazoid. Mike. PS If anyone has an extra Funkstorung Additional Productions poster, contact me. Someone stole mine.
