Catalan Soup Kitchen

I've been lazy so am well out of date with this, so there may be a run of posts (if things go well).
Links to mp3's corrected!




D-Face and Super Mega Ultra Crew got us off to a fine start with some breaks and some violin. Hear some mp3 here.




Then Joe Gilmore freaked out the soundmen with some of THIS!



Then EVOL had his computer in a fully fledged ping pong dialogue with itself.

Gatecrashers and interlopers Noteherder & McCloud with "It's just the wind in the wires"



VLK, frsh from a great set at noise=noise with a brief excerpt of their set. Hear the whole thing at this place.


Mata Unit can be heard beeping and booping, as well as seen (its not so easy in the video below).




HRT scared the living shit out of everyone.

Jooooooooolay, its pop crazy

The Tim Sagar Drone Syndicate played a rather lovely drone raga version of "Don't stop til you get enough" to celebrate the demise of a recent celebrity.




Dear Britch sat nicely at the bar in a cloud of smoke, vamping it up as usual. Alex (below did the sound for him).


Tom Hall twittered and gonged and scraped but didn't itch.


Devil Man (Shige and Gou) dubrocked in a superdense bass heavy way.

Mostly its audience recordings rather than off the desk, this was for a variety of reasons - but hey! you can soak up the atmosphere.

Apart from Tom Hall visuals were by The _minimalVector slide project.

These posts are brief cos my laptop keyboard is mental. and not in a good way.

singing backwards from the east

This is Andre's Elbow. Andre is Hoofus, he sounds like this - it's very good, we enjoyed it. he has some CD@s for sale at his website, I had one briefly, but don't any more.





After Andre we had Frances, Frances sings and plays the guitar and the Casio as Animal Magic Tricks. Animal Magic Tricks are not like Hoofus. They sound like this. We like them too.



Finally for June we had Monster Bobby, he is in the Pipettes backing band, but doesn't sound like The Pipettes or Frances or Andre. He sounds like this. One of these songs was on our first compilation CD. And was also a Pipettes b-side.

Dunno about you, I thought the June show was bloody marvellous.


Heres some video

There are more videos at the SoG Myspace Page.

you can't keep a good typo down

I have more pictures which I'll add later.

So this was our festical show featuring top fun from many places.

The elektrocreche kicked the mood off nicely with some chaotic fun.




Then it were Strangers From Birth.


Cranking up the noise levels were Henry Collins taking on the mighty Henry Collins in an earal waxbath made in hell.

Ital Tek cranked out some tunes.

Then Tim Exile


went all improv breakbeat on our asses.


and controlled it all from hisremote joystick.

Before Ceephax bought us back to earth with a great deal of old records.


Here is some video and there is lots more on our myspace page.

Slacking in space

With a minimal input from _minimalVector Bartosz takes it easy and enjoys Chris Cook and Dan Powells set.


Although he did have to work hard on the slide projectors - analogue style for The Vainglories.

This is "Crystalloid".



And then 4 big blokes in furry suits: MSG playing subtle dense bass music.

Lighting effects

We had native lighting this, for various reasons, so it was a good job we had a 'no laptop' month. But there is still video footage if you scroll to the end.


Dancing up a storm with his 16bit raveups was DJ Meagre Sexy Drive:

Here is a little snatch of the soundtrack to his youth.







Following that up with a brief but wonderful set was D-Face. PArt of Super Mega Ultra Crew and fidgital.
Here is some beat and violin.

The finishing off with an epic set of sweep and analogy was Fronter Telegraph.


Here is a
small section of his set.

And cos he looks so nice in is WSB togs, here is Derek at the bar.
