first posted at twoism forum. here's a small review of this night's events. I hope mr. 103 can contribute some pics soon. rawakari vs kadah/vresky: good. glitchy, sharp stabbing breaks and punchy bass. though a bit too random and chaotic too start the evening off with, imo. kettel vs secede: started off by anouncing they were going to play some acid. This was nice but nothing spectacular. Their set was quite sloppy and got a bit boring towards the end. Couldnt decide wether secede was a boy or a girl (just checked on website and it's a dude). Likes to wear girls clothing apparently. vector lovers: by this time i had suddenly lost all my energy and got sleepy so i didnt catch the entire set but what i heard was very nice. dat politics: having seen them before i knew this was going to be good and it was. They do an incredibly energetic set of strange electro, live keyboard banging, effects box slamming, knob twiddling and hysteric shouting. Mad. See them when you get a chance. eight frozen modules: in a way, the most interesting set of the night. Technical glitch madness so intense people had to cover their ears from time to time. He's a funny looking guy on stage, pulling weird faces as he twiddles knobs to create sounds that are seemingly able to demolish any speakerset. Some of it was so high pitched i just couldnt believe it was possible for the speakers to produce. Chaotic, loud, extreme, absolutely awesome. karl marx stadt: surprise of the day! never heard of this dude before. Wore a melt banana tshirt and looked a bit like a mad professor. And mad it was. Not entirely fair but if i had to compare him to anyone it would be vsnares or doormouse, but much more enjoyable than snares. The guy went absolutely mental and the crowd (except for kettel who was sitting a few chairs next to me yelling stuff like 'RUBBISH' and other crap. Stupid bastard) enjoyed this great breakcore set a lot. Recommended! The visuals (projected on 6 huge screens on 3 walls) were excellent and really |

added to the atmosphere. overall, panoptica was for the 3rd time a fantastic festival and i will be going again next year, no matter the lineup. p.s: sorry for the horrible writing. I feel like i drank gasoline and ate cigarettes.. ugh. Also, Reimer, if you read this, care to give us some of your opninions? I could have asked you myself but you seemed awfully busy with your 2 mates. I was thinking of asking if you made that tune 'pinch of peer' all by yourself, because it's astoundingly good and it could have saved your set perhaps. |

You already know that Pinch of Peer is a Kettel only song, right? |

no i don't. how could we ever know? The melody is almost perfect. The song is almost too good. If it is indeed entirely his own creation then i commend him for it and hope he'll make more music up to that standard. |

You already heard the song in my Best of 2004 selection, remember? Through Friendly Waters: All tracks conspired and produced by Reimer Eising. |

actually both kettel and secede had a horrible crash and had to make the most of it. i had a little chat with them afterwards and the guy in girls clothing(your words) told me it was a complete disaster and the set had almost nothing to do with the set they prepared, except for the first 3 tracks or so. that might explain why the set sounded quite sloppy and a bit boring towards the end(your words, again). still, despite the crash et al, i thought they were the freshest thing that evening. |

I surprisingly loved Dat Politics (danced my ass off..damn..), but I i really enjoyed the Kettel & Secede thingy too. Even with the interruption. It's not always a bad thing when stuff goes wrong. I thought it was clever and friendly that they were communicating to the audience. Oh.. @J198: Kettel shouting rubbish to Karlmarxstadt ???, haven't seen him doing it, but, its shit. He shouldn't do that, mock colleagues on a show. I can vaguely relate to this though because I have some friends who met him and said he's an arrogant twat. Oh well.. Can't have it all eh |
