my day started off with work, and plenty of it, lifting 120kg wall panels up to the fifth floor of the coles myer building in parramatta, and then after lunch I went into the city and installed another 6 panels on the 35th floor of an office building in sydney,
afternoon came (4:00pm), and I got paid ($612 for 4 days work!) I rang jason (manifestevil) with whom I had planned to spend the night with, he told me that he wouldn't be in until around 10, so I had to find something to do in the meantime.
I went into newtown to visit an old friend of mine by the name of Ra, in order to fill in the time I had to wait,
9:30 came, I said my goodbyes, and departed by bus to go into the city, and by 10:00pm I had met up with jason and shelly and was inside the club, we talked for an hour or so, and I briefly met up with plenty of other people, (but I've forgotton all their names now :P), the music was better than average, some nice chill out electronica and breaks, but noghting special, and then jason says to me "these guys coming on now, I'm trying to get them to play at the warehouse gigs i set up" jason immmediately noticed that they had new gear to play with, and I just braced myself for the ride,
for the next 1-2 hours, I heard some of the most frenzied drill and bass I've ever heard in my life, "sub bass snarl" as they called themselves, played an awesome set of simple dub and electro with complexly layered drum n bass overlapping the top seamlessly, the dreadlock toting "guy behind the desk" was fiddling with knobs like a motherfucker and truly bringing the tracks to life, I've never seen a set of hands move at such lightning speed with the precision and accuracy that this guy was doing, you could tell it was all "on the spot",.. and it was all the better for it, and his partner was groovin around all the same, I almost cried when the set finished.
big hands out to jason for bringin me there, and shell for shouting me drinks all night,
Matt/Refund

it was great, it was a real classy venue, the sound system was the right size for the room, it was loud, but clear, and everyone was up and dancing around, having a good time, got some great vibes from the place.

not like I'd go to a club, but uh, go you!

*death becomes me as well while we're at it*
....
*Not 'at it' as in doing it, just while we're talking about death and whatnot*

I want to hear them again too,
if jason has them playing at the warehouse party, and I have my minidisc player by then, I'll hook it straight into the line out and get some recordings.
