Bang Face
Saturday 10th March 2006
Electrowerkz, Torrens Street, Angel, London

Tonight's entertainment was interrupted by various inflatable objects being launched skywards. Most disturbingly I was repeatedly headbutted by a blue dolphin. But then again it may have been the overwhelming stench of Vicks in the air that was having an affect.

It was Ceephax's birthday. He celebrated by setting up a workshop consisting of a Commodore Amiga, SH-101, 303 and 808. Donning an 'Acid Quiff' T-shirt and throwing strange shapes.

Mike 'mu-ziq' Paradinas flattened out his laptop and teased out a near greatest hits, even taking requests at one point. Never was a fan of his gabba jackhammer stuff, and thankfully he kept it to a minimum. Highlight was the synth-pad jazz mutation of 'Brace Yourself Jason'.

Rave casualty Billy Bunter summed the whole night up when he demanded we "rave liked it's 1994." Not realising that half the audience were probably 8 years old in '94.

Bang Face: Rave cliches personified. Just watch out for the blue dolphin.

Soundhack
Thursday 23rd March 2006
Plastic People, Shoreditch, London

Discombabulate, Dreck Records' sorely rare London excursions, have enticed over the near reclusive Soundhack over to London's bestest sound system for a night of spastic dance and hard edits. Can't actually remember much about the night. Secondo was wicked as ever and Soundhack rapidly flicked through the different flavours of disco. Eventually settling on the dark and dirty variety.
