anyway best night ever!!
pusher, ceephax and afx was one magic moment
chasing the other, after that ive been a bit exhausted,
rested for a while and looked out for you and retape.
man, there was lots of bass and although it was really
crowded i just moved my ass into the right spots.

I had waited 7 years to see Aphex Twin live again (last time
was in 2002), so my expectations were quite high. The show
was a bit of a disappointment. The first 7 minutes were
totally boring, then it took Aphex & Hecker 20 minutes to
"build up" momentum. IMHO a poor response to the crowd who
was already MORE than ready to dance! (Squarepusher &
Ceephax did a great job of warming us up ;-)). There was
little variation in the set. No hard vs. soft dynamics. Just
a steadily increasing beat & loudness. I missed the
playfulness that is so characteristic of a lot of Aphex's
work :-(.

Anyways, I didn't like/watch the video at the end of the AFX
show. He may *want* my/our soul, but he can't have mine!
Ruined the whole experience & was kinda mad about it.

If you want to have an impression of his performance, check
out these videos (don't worry, the end part with gory
visuals WASN'T recorded by me): http://tinyurl.com/dcj6he

Damn it was a great festival..nice ambience..great sphere
amongs the people..but the sound of some gigs was terrible.
Like v snares..fucked up. I've heard much better.
Aphex twin really dissappointed me with his set..he should
only DJ in the future. And the VJ stuff in the end sucked
imo. It was a real bummer to see a dead girls eye cut out.
And I hate poop and pis sex too. It destroyed my evening for
a while. Ceephax was great btw! Also Squarepusher but again:
the sound wasnt that great imo. STRP should have invest more
into a good quality sound system.
And the most terrible thing of all was that I havent met any
of you guys! Next time better folks! :-)

Ceephax is pretty much guaranteed fun. I knew what to expect
and he delivered! Squarepusher was sweet, but I came a bit
late so only saw last 30 minutes. I was disappointed by
Aphex too, had to rest a while after that set. And VS was
just waaay to loud. I had to move back 3 times, heard much
better VS sets as well.

But it was great fun. And as long as it wasn't too crowded
it was a nice and friendly atmosphere.

yep...

Squarepusher was fantastic... great sound i thought form
where i was standing. Opened with "welcome to europe" but it
became the same set as the last half-dozen. Brilliant but
samey.

Apehx Twin: Love the hecker malarky, the surround sound, the
visuals (most of them).....

ceephax..... top of the nothes as always

Roborob was agreat dj too.

I got full squarepusher/aphex mp3's too. Sound is good
enough for a live recordings.

I'll put them up by thurday nite. The videos too shakey to
bother with youtube.
