House Music

Last Friday (12/2/10) we went down to The D La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill for their February Random Friday.

Caleb Madden, ex Waxed Apple/Capslock/Terror Wogan and all round sound man for 3 years had an installation in the North Staircase called House Music.
Its all bits of sound crafted from household objects.

I want to book it for one of our shows, maybe instead of the electrocreche.

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.

Sunsets and other September stuff

While the sun treated us to a lovely September treat we treated our ears.


Starting off the evening with a set of Buddha machine and Deer noises was Fallow. Creepy, Loud, quiet and blissful by turns.
Here's a quiet bit so you can hear the Buddha Machines.
The buddha and the beast




Continuing the run opf arriving late from the west country with no time to soundcheck we had Little Boat and his guitar (lovely old) amp and pedals.

This is a cover version, it kind of stops halfway through, but that doesn't matter.

And rounding off the evening were the wonderful Power Up, violin, voice and various electronics I think this section has something of the variety of their set.
