WTF?

ok here's the post

--------------------------------
This is a sort of review of the show and my night in general
as I'd end up crapping about both in general here at some
stage in the near future. I haven't the faintest idea how to
write a review so here goes (this is also getting pasted on
wattem and tefo and maybe µ)

----------------------------------------------------------

Some local sampler boys opened for him and they were
actually pretty tight but pretty obviously biting Scott's
ass something terrible (aw fuck who cares they were still
cool).
Unless they were just DJing his tracks (couldn't see 'em to
well but from the bar it looked to me liek they had samplers
and shit not just spinning vinyl).

Prefuse came on and all the chinstrokers got bopping, it was
weird for me, I'm used to being in crowds and totally
getting down (and I was wired off my tits) so I had to try
not to move around TOO much.

He played quick selections from Vocal Studies and One Word
Extinguisher and a bunch of shit I haven't heard before. It
was all seamlessly put together - I was trying to pick when
he loaded up new sounds for the next track on the sampler
(but then again I'm not a hardware kid so I don't know how
these things work), he was just playing the shit like crazy
the whole time. Totally busy shit.

My mate who went with me is a breakbeat head (into breaks
and dnb) and he was hell impressed "This shit is fucking
crazy - look how crazy he's going at that fucking
machine!".

No live MCs or anything though - just another unannounced DJ
scratching over the top of the tracks. Good thing someone
had the sense to turn the decks right down so the scratching
was barely heard over the cutups. Obviously a lot of th
elive recorded MCing stuff in his tracks was absent but the
cutup vocal stabs were still present.

After a brilliant set I made a point of going up and shaking
his hand and getting my copy of One Word Extinguisher signed
and giving him a CD of my shit, which he (for some reason)

his hand and getting my copy of One Word Extinguisher signed
and giving him a CD of my shit, which he (for some reason)
actually seemed to think was really cool.
"Ah! This your shit?"
"Yeah man, just have a listen if you're bored on the plane
or whatever"
"Yeah cool man"

Also managed to give away CDs to a dude who works at DaDa's
(local record store, arguably best in town for getting
underground shit - completely dope store, they pretty much
all know me there), a dude who I see at every dnb or breaks
rave I go to who also DJs on local radio station RTRFM (he
has pretty much exactly the same taste in music as me, lots
of breaks and dnb and IDM stuff), a chick who my mate was
having a chat to who also DJs on RTRFM, and a few more
people (can't remember) and I'm giving one to my raver
druggie barber tonight at HEAT (dnb night) who cut my hair
this morning.

Ahaha crazy few days.

I've been stoned as fuck pretty much nonstop since the
show.

Good thing I took friday off work.

OK that's it, it must have got downsized (to nothing?
wtf?).

I'm really fucking wired so I'm just kind of typing and
clicking at a hundred miles and hour. I don't read error
messages. I just click the "yeah yeah yeah" button.

sorry!

Cheers man. You should've seen last nights. There's a

around for his email address today!

You think he'd mind? I don't want to be an annoying fanboy

i emailed him 1 time and he didn't reply.. but i just wrote
1 or 2 sentences, asking him what erykah badu song he
sampled for "nuno". the email didn't get returned to me, so
i know the address is legitimate. it's from the hefty
records mailing list i accidentally got access to (the list
got corrupted and everyone on the list got to see the email
addresses it was sent to), and seeing as how scott has his
own imprint, eastern developments, on hefty, and has
released music with them for years, i figure it's the right
address. just in case it's not, or if he doesn't check his
email for a while, i hope you kept a copy..

Yeah no reply. He's playing elsewhere in oz still I think.
I'm not expecting a reply though ;-)

I'm one of the insignificants that IDM artist love to ignore
(what's up with that? ther'es a thread on the µ board
essentially about how to tell people to fuck off politely
and stop them talking to you after you play a live
set.....WHY? WHY? Why not say thanks and TALK to these
people? Ah maybe I'm just not IDM enough to make it)

Hahah anyways cheers for the addy, btw :)

np hope he does actually reply, he seems like the type who
would let you know if he enjoyed your tracks

some electronic artists are totally down to earth (mark bell
and slicker to name just two i've corresponded with several
times) and some are total sacks (even vim! is full of
himself and his computer music isn't half as good as yours
or ochre's)

Hahah I spoke with sense once on this irc chatroom that SQ
recommended to me and he was the biggest wanker ever.

He kept saying this phrase at me which had me puzzled but
sounded liek he was giving me shit so I started talkig music
at hime and he said some tehcnical muso shit which had me
puzzled so I was all "hey go easy on me I'm not big, man I'm
just an mp3kid" and he got really shitty at me for
suggesting he was successful!!! I shit you not I was amazed
at how much of a cock this guy was being.
