Squarepusher live@Koko

I saw Squarepusher live last night in Koko, London.

Probably the best live experience I've had out of all the
musicians we talk about here. Great bass playing, a really
interesting 20 minute jazz improv thing at the beginning
with a drummer and saxaphonist, and he played all his
classics (with new bass solos and live effects and all that
jazz.)

Steinbolt (sp?) of Ultravisitor was probaly the best track,
along with Come On My Selector.

Was anyone else there?

I was at the Notts one and it was mind-blowing.

Wasn't as good as Autecre in April, but what is?

I thought this was superior to Autechre's live show. He
really played with the audience, and I guess I just prefer
watching a musician perform. I loved his blatant showing
off.

Who played saxophone and percussion?
Was it Paul Hession and Alan Wilkinson?

They were especially good, the way he improvised and
"abused" his classics.

I'd have liked more of that jazz stuff. I was just getting
into it, and it finished. Still an amazing show, though.

I think Vibert deserves a mention here. He did funky
melodies bordering on the dissonace, granted, squarepusher
did the same later on with a brilliant chord sequence.

The jazzy bit I think lasted it's deserved time- don't get
me wrong it was brilliant, I just stood there in awe half
expecting that saxophone to blow up; but towards the end it
was starting to become less awe inspiring. (I guess my ears
were desensitized).

And this thread can't die without Anstromm Feck 4 being
mention- the way the crowd exploded in almost orgasmic
climax will never leave my mind- it was absolutely manic.

:)- do you agree with me though that there were too many
people on the dance floor just standing (not even nodding
their heads). I t really pis,ses me off, that floor was
crowded and valuable dancing space was being taken up by
these inconsiderates. And it's not like there was no where
else to stand, there there were 3 effin floors, 3 effin bars
and a multitude of semi-secluded seating areas where you
could still see the stage due to the number of screens and
tv's.

My friend asked a guy who was standing on the dance floor
"when are you gonna dance then?" and the twat replied "none
of your effin business"- he did move away though so there
was no need to get angry about the rudeness.

As i said, It was more of a mosh pit than a dancefloor. Me
and my friends went up to the ba;comny got a great view and
room to dance.

It was fucking awesome!!!
