sorry - no midweek weander this week - it will return next wednesday unless the world gets in the way. instead, we’re entering the weekend early - ’cause i say so. switch off yr computers, derail yr workbound trains, perhaps get intoxed this morning - drunkenness at inappropriate, unsocial hours swells into something else, you feel like a celluloid silhouette come detached from the print. oh, and while you’re in the process, listen to this:

IT CAME FROM THE SEA
FRIDAY 12 OCTOBER * 11-3
BRIGHTON KOMEDIA * merely 6/5 pounds
NEXT WAVE INDIE / NEUROTIC ELECTRO / HIP-HOP FUTURISM

here are some new/er/est artistes and outfits we will play besides.

BANGERS & CASH
All I should need to say on this one is - check the MySpace addy. Yup, Bangers + Cash = the new side-project from Spank Rock and Benny Blanco (although prominently featuring Amanda Blank on lead single ‘Loose’). Apparently taking 2 Live Crew’s obsessive pottybass as their template, you shd definitely clean yr ears out to better experience the rising tide of naughties hyperfilth they’re going to mire yr soul in (like, if you click on that link, you’re probably going to hell. Yr call).

LATE OF THE PIER
Having seen his weekly indie club morph glitchfully into the most imitated party in pretty much any town with a fringe (oh BLAMMO!) and his remixes further hammer his DNA code into the receptive, drug-widened psyches of dancing fun-puppets besides, it was (with hindsight) only a matter of time before Erol Alkan involved himself in the murky business of star-making from scratch. And so, his production job on Late Of The Pier’s ‘Bathroom Gurgle’ amps their post-Klaxons pseudo-mysticism into sci-fi overdrive with all manner of ridiculous space opera climaxes and classic electro-pop tricks. It is, y’know, very frantic, very durrr, very now.

A MOUNTAIN OF ONE
Amassing such continual (and often unlikely - Vice AND Uncut?) praise from the UK music press that their profoundly epic prog symphonettes are either the balearic classics they’re claimed to be, or they are a) very good at sexxxing and b) willing to do said activity with every last music journalist on this noble island. This latter trial by ire is perhaps why their music sounds like someone closing their eyes and imagining they’re riding a unicorn across the golden plains of World Of Warcraft (i realise the ad above is for a date in the past. just use yr imaginaaaation…)

AGASKODO TELIVEREK
Taking their name from the Klingon Kama Sutra, and helmed by a guy whose nickname-of-choice is The Accountant, fun cd hardly be more guaranteed. That their new single ‘The Gay Hussar’ sounds approximately like rock’n'roll had it been invented by lifesize bluebottles, all frighteningly obsessive buzz and fearless, mindless repetition. Oh, and I lied earlier - the name actually means ‘Rearing Stallions’ in Hungarian - but I gifted you some pretty gnarrrly, hot, INDELIBLE mental images for ten seconds, right?

i hope to see someone there.
