 | just read your  review  mate... Nice one. 
 i wasn't there anyway as i've been poor the past year. i is
 back now and currently listening to Sepix's mixes -
 review-thread to follow. VSnares at Blitz sounds as crazy as
 his ATP03 show.
 Was Ceephax there too?

 | it was nice, shame such things don't happen more often. i think ceephax was scheduled at first but they cancelled him
 later on, as well as some other...im pretty sure it was cuz
 of lack of interest - not enough tickets sold on pre-sale
 and such, not surprising tho as the whole thing was a mess
 regarding organization.
 
 it was my only time seeing vsnares, so i was quite
 impressed, it wasn't the best act but certanly the most
 exhausting one :)
 i loved what lory d played this time, one of best live
 performances i have ever seen, and the music was excellent,
 i certanly hope he will release some of it in the future. i
 was a bit surprised to hear that most italians came there
 mostly cuz of lory, cuz i heard him play before and it was
 alright but not near as great as this time...he's definitely
 one of the people i'll look forward to see again.
 
 and i loved richard devine's act - he played several (mostly
 harsh ones) tunes from asect:dsect and other simmilar stuff,
 i loved it cuz i never heard anything just like that
 before...i only new "lipswitch" before and it wasn't really
 my thing, but the stuff he played here was excellent, and
 well asect dsect is one of my top 5 albums last year.
 
 do you know if there are any similar festivals planned for
 this year already?

 | hmm,yes, squarepusher...when is he doing some european gigs???
 
 it's a really sad electronica scene we have here in
 europe...the promotors always need to bring some big name
 otherwise there isn't any interest at all. not sure if even
 afx or pusher are enough these days. it looks to me like
 sonar is doing the right thing to some extend - they always
 schedule the most popular dj's in techno scene and they seem
 to attract the majority of people to get money to pay other
 less popular ones and to give this festival a less
 mainstream feel to it. it's really sad, and i was shocked to
 see so few people at bitz last year...there were like 30
 people at the end of venetian snares!?!?
 looks like i'll have to visit uk more often :)
