the 'green space' show in LA last night was really quite good. somewhat of a pretentious and small venue, but it worked out okay overall. all the music was quite impressive. lexaunculpt: i guess our friend alex has stirred up some attention for himself -- which i really do feel he deserves. while there is still room for him to grow and find his place in electronic music, alex never fails to impress me.. and i look forward to watching his progress over the new year. this time around he really went on the dark and moody tip with some amazing soundscapes and beats! the material he played (or some of it) may be going to a pretty well known label... so keep your eyes out. richie devine: this guy is so insane (performing or not) :) first, he had a coil shirt on. this is important. second, the music he played last night crossed so many levels and genres -- bits of jungle, idm, noise, hardcore?, ambient.. to be honest, this was one of the most original performances i have ever seen. quite amazing. imagine good solid mego style noise as re-sung by cute little aliens running around and blowing up random raver kids (complete with solid beats). phoenecia: honestly, last night seemed like a bad night for josh and rom -- which is too bad, because last time i saw them they tore the shit up! seemed to be some gear problems (sampler) which they are getting fixed before their next gig (i think SF). DO NOT MISS THESE GUYS! given that theyput on the BEST SHOW last time i saw them and no one has anything to say but amazing things about them -- im sure that the SF performance will be insane. i jsut hope they come back sometime soon. 2 silver boxes (djing): what i heard of these guys was pretty solid material. i just wish that they would appear on more flyers in so-cal. good electro-ish stuff. promoters: all of these kids are super super amazing live. please consider them for future events. thanks to the green space/orange folk for making this happen. chris. __ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [*<n/ff> <=rr*/a|>r] - wednesdays 7-8 pm riders of the plastic groove - fridays 9-midnight kuci 88.9fm po box 4362 irvine ca 92616 green eggs and ham info line: 714.647.7750
