Hiya! CeriJC! (and the rest).... really sorry i was way too mashed to meet you guys! A mate from Bristol arrived with a ton of grass and i was fooked all weekend! met RDJ 3 times!!! 1. At shops on sunday morning! 2. Behind me during firealarm exit at Magic band 3. Dancing to Vsnares like a loon! .....Verdict?... he´s a mischievious gnome of a crusty git in real life... which is good! Great gif all round and i shall review the acts over the course of the day....... what a top class gig! |

some fucking review! ok RUSSEL HASSEL was the best for me.... pure noise head-wreckage with Whitehouse tunes and extreme beats. Amazing and the most progressive act there for me APHEX TWIN A brilliant ragga/jungle set with new tunes, and Zigghomatic...... the start was similar to Pukkelpop just before the jungle bit GESCOM Excellent DJ set from Booth n Brown but not Autechre enough for me.... twas surprisingly techo-based LFO, SURGEON ... top class techno from these lads with a definite froward momentum, some AFX tunes, and tight mixing FARMERSMANUAL ........ very worth checking out for atmos, beats and solid programming PUSH B. OBJECTS (LIVE) (i think it was them) .. really really good stuff ...... onc of the bets acts i saw MIRA CALIX AND ANDREA PARKER .. fucked upo sound system and extremely chilled set didn´t make for a great show VENETIAN SNARES UNBELIEVABLE.. deserves a massive solo thread TOTAL CRAP ..DREXCIYAN DJ STINGRAY ....A. GUY. C. GERALD ....CARL CRAIG ...WEVIE STNODER |

"VENETIAN SNARES UNBELIEVABLE.. deserves a massive solo thread " too bad the other topic got closed key did you know what he played ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no idea what Vsnare played as i don´t know any of his stuff with it sounded like ..er,EVERYTHING! .. at the same time. No really, it did have a serious disjointed feeling to it but a overall consistency that made it non-headwrecking |

FUCKING HAVE IT, YA BASTARDS. Let me here you say AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH 1 2 3 4 MUTHAKUCKWIT Bo mate, the venetians fucking ripped, but personnally Gescom was favourite set. Just enough techno to keep it dance floor, enough mentallist selections to keep it bo fucking selecta. what can be done to indie bitches to make them HAVE IT FUCKING LARGE?? Some of those wet blankets needed to be chained to the bassbins. Answers on a muthasucking postcard arsebandits. How about the new AE lp? Not a scratch on Confield(there best ever methinks), sounds half finished to me with its wet synths and hip hop beats. |

LOL, you sound like the guy who was dancing next to me in the front row during aphex :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hehe im gonna save up for this! will there be an atp 2004? (im pretty sure.. but still..) 110 quid sounds like a lot of cash to me.. but hey then you get something nice :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, tickets have been on sale for about 2 weeks I think. Check out www.atpfestival.com I don't know if I'll go next year, I had a good time, but I'll be a lot more hard up this time next year as well as in the middle of my finals exams at uni. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
next year won't be anything like this year though. mogwai, tortoise and shellac are having one day each, so there will be far more "bands" playing. for people into electronic music, i don't think there will ever be a music festival again with a lineup as good as atp this year. the likes of dedbeat have a lot of good dance acts, but to see coil, parmegiani, disjecta playing guitar, the fall, the magic band, jim o'rourke, yasunaou tone etc etc on the same bill as aphex, snares, surgeon, gescom, lfo, etc will just never be equalled. |

i might go see brothomstates this weekend.. okok its not atp but hey theres some canadian and swedish electronice there too, new artists to me. |

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
missed them.....and mira calix and also russel haswell,who actualy id already seen twice and didnt really like.....there was actual beats did you say? damn maybe i should have checked |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

|

thanks M these are more what i had in mind... some good acts didn't show (PBO, bola) but seems like it was a great time anyway. my ATP 3 compilation came in the mail today... i'm gonna listen to it tomorrow. new (old unreleased) autechre track, bola, jim o'rourke, dr. dooom remixed by pb wolf... but no LFO, el-p, coil, surgeon.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
..aphex, vsnares, mira calix all of these would have been NICE additions.. instead of prev released tracks (PE rocks but come on) |

HI DE HI campers!!!! just got back after 10 days of nuttiness. well what a great festival (if you could call it a festival) a Challet for fucks sake!!! with boss telly all weekend (Cutmaster Swift on Terry Wogan, Solaris, Stalker, They Live, made me feel old but fuckit.) From what i remember, Public Enemy where fuckin Tight, amazing, highlight of the weekend for me. Wevie Stonder where a shambles but great. Aphex's set was monstrous, from the early electro start to the fucked up remix of Cocaine at the end, a great journey through electronica. Magic Band looked and sounded tight as fuck too, but the ghost of Beefheart made sure we didnt see too much of that. Drexian DJ Stingray fuckin rocked, amazing set, along with Gescom and Aphex the best DJ sets of the weekend for me. Venetian Snares was fuckin hillarious, with that bird singing the opera madness, weird finish to the weekend. OH!!! and....... Playing Global Communication for 15 minutes standing at the decks looking at your watch does not a DJ make, them two bints on Sunday where a disgrace. sorry to not meet up with any xltronicas but was pretty twatted all weekend to have stuck to any plans. I was the big cunt off his head shouting HI DE HI everywhere anyway. after the festival we drove into the Dartford National Park to camp, then to Lands End, StoneHeng, Avebury, stayed in Glastonbury, then to Devils Bridge near Abarystwyth, driving through the mountains in Wales, then Liverpool for a few days, drove 1100 miles. great stuff. |

Oh man, I'd forgotten about cutmaster swift on Wogan, that was amazing :) Magic Band sounded prett yloud, I could hear them while I was playing chess 2 rooms away. Glad you had a good trip. I'm off to email XLT member Oakamsterd about it now... |
||||||||

did you have a good one Ceri JC?? it was a really good atmosphere the whole weekend. ""MIRA CALIX AND ANDREA PARKER .. fucked upo sound system and extremely chilled set didn´t make for a great show "" thats them, baaah, fuckin standing around doing fuckall, terrible. |
||||||||
|

Fucking too right this was an awesome wekend. Keys has summed it up. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

It was excellent fun. I had as much unmusic related fun as I did music. Fisticuffs, chess, swimming (in the sea as well as the pool) trashing the chalet (miraculously nothing got broken despite throwing chairs around etc), getting off my face on absinthe, flag burning, walks on the beach/dunes, fun trip down etc. a great weekend. Something I'll remember for life. All the people were dead sound and there was no one there I got into an argument with/took a dislike to, nobody stole anything etc. basically a weekend away from the usual assholes you get in "real life" and gigs. Makes me want to live in a big IDM commune where everyone is dead sound. The boys from dublin (thought it might be keys, he he) who were patently off their face on tranquilisers within an hour of getting there were great. Not to mention the people in the chalet above us who affectionatley dubbed us "The Absinthe Boys" and gave birth to the best catch phrase of all time "Watch out for the stomach cramps!". Proper press photographer got some really good pictures of giginger absolutely decking my best mate. I can't wait to see where they surface... |

Fuck yeah man! Those photos. I need to see them. |

wow Ceri! sounds fucking madness where you were! We were obviously too fiucked on quality grass to get up to such active tomfoolery. I usually go nuts but, cos im kinda staying off the pills, it was fairly subdued but no less the fun for that! Yeah.. the vibe was intesily friendly all round.. loadsa london geezers and local lads dropped into our place and entertained us for hours with stories of Buckfast mixed with cider, extreme hospital Xrays, and general funny fucking chat! I surprised the lwhole room by playing my own weird stuff on CD and at the end declaring .."That was my fucking music, chaos".... to awed faces! What a rush! Real pity i missed the rest of you guys. roll on the xltronic summer party! (hint hint) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah my only regret was not taking my ghetto blaster as I had some quality tunage with me (and my own stuff). Summer party idea seems on hold as B3n and Chri5py have stopped being "regulars" here and they were helping organise it. If people are still interested and someone would be up for helping organising it we could ge tit going again. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The closest we're getting to a summer party is my proposed idea for Alton Towers :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I hearby declare Giginger's 21st BD party as the official XLT Summer-meet for UK (those outside the uk are welcome to come too of course!) XLTers, 2003! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's a quality idea I reckon as it's dead centre of the year. |
||||||||
|
|

|

The uni going folk should be on holiday too. |
||||||||

i'd be lucky if i can eat in august! |

|

That's not an answer! ;P |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
off topic question: what is downpayment (as in downpayment required)? is this money in advance? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think it's a payment that's in advance but not to the full amount. That's my understanding. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
