Finally Versivo appeared after 2 cancellations.
Quite an odd venue (The Phoenix) but the usual suspects had no trouble finding it.
I'm not quite sure of the order in which the DJs played, but it was
up to the usual SKAM standard, a delicious mixture of styles
including lots of tasty electro, from the old and new schools.
And a selection of that there drum and bass (which has been gracing
car adverts, TV trailers for at least a year in the UK).
Boards of Canada unassumingly took the stage at 1.25am, the only
visual distraction being some random images on portable tellies.
On for about an hour, they played only a couple from SKA08 and those
they did had been tweaked. Not an improvement, I thought. Still
good, though. There were lots of Phils and new stuff which has been
aired on Disengage. The crowd weren't rocking, but it wasn't really
_rocking_ music. I think perhaps they need to think more carefully
about which tracks to put in a set. Perhaps the PA was a
bit lacklustre.
I really enjoyed it but it could have been even better. Looks like
their future releases will live up to the first one, though.
After they finished Rob Hall strutted his Techno stuff, including a
marvellous passage where he mixed from something I can't remember
into Radio Babylon and then Tamphex (or something like that). Hmm -
that's a chronic description but it sounded niiice.
A quality evening.
Roll on Autechre/Jega and Plaid.
It's my suspicion that some other IDM characters were present.
