Utility Fog

Sunday, 1st of February, 2009

Tragically, Charlie Cooper from Telefon Tel Aviv passed away a week ago. Since their new album Immolate Yourself is out right about now (I suppose a sad coincidence), we started with a bit of a tribute via their wonderful history of music.
Following that, Cameron Webb (Seaworthy) and Marcus Whale (Scissor Lock) came in for a chat, and played a beautiful piece of improvised music on guitar and vox and lots of processing.

Quite a bit of new music tonight, so we had Jonquil's new EP, an unreleased remix of Seekae by FBi's own Luminarsi, yet more Machinefabriek (not new, but pretty unusual!), delightful folktronic-ish stuff from color cassette, amazing new Atom™ on raster-noton, wobbly-funky-almost-dubstep from HudMo, skittery indiefolktronica from sleeps in oysters, thingummybob from Minotaur Shock (the new album finally on CD courtesy of Audio Dregs), complex drumming and other instruments from Melbourne's great earthquake, jazzy drill'n'bass from Squarepusher, scary drum'n'bass from Submerged, and slightly less scary drum'n'bass from Terminal Sound System.

You love it. You know you do. How could you not?
