Utility Fog

Monday, 29th of September, 2003

Today’s set went, one might say, from the sublime to the ridiculous and back again a few times over its three hours. Quite a wide variety, from the softest post-rock and folk(tronica) to the most brain-mashing breakcore. Sumfink for everyone, guv – you decide what’s the sublime and what’s the ridiculous. It’s all good.
