Photos from Club Bit Map!


Everyone loves to see Gear! We will start there. This pic is of Igor Amokian's set up on the two left tables and the third table on the right is Big Epoch's rig. Note that the blue, green and yellow drum pad toy also lit up when played!






Here is the view of Big Epoch's setup on the lower left.
I will note that Big Epoch is the master of the Kaos pad. To watch him run it is an education. Impressive!



Phog gear. Groove box, filter, fuzztone, mixer. Good for parking blunted beats over Philip Glass or Carl Orff. In the course of the evening tracks by Art Ensemble of Chicago, Miles Davis, Steve Reich and more were mixed with beats as break music. It is an homage to the the true pioneers that opened the door to the noisy life we lead. The mixes were done with the upmost respect. Really! This is not an ironic statement!


Dan from Clown's and Fetuses working the dance floor!
Epic!

Enjoy all the tracks from the performers!

This Saturday! Santa Ana & Bucharest!

This Saturday is the OCCCA show I am thrilled to be on that bill with the who's who of the local noise scene!

I just got back from Chicago. Interesting town that Chicago. The temperatures were just starting to dip. The locals bleed anti-freeze when they are cut. I however, do not have the midwest attribute of being impervious to low temps. I bought a wool coat at a Goodwill to address the issue. Nice Coat, $12.06. It looks like it might have fed some moths along the way.

Onward....
