Yay! Got the ultra rare version of “Straight from the Dick” – “Straight from the Stick“! by Super Adventure Club on Armellodie Records – which is a customised drumstick with a download code (never advertised and sold out now so don’t even try!) of the new album to be released in November 2013.
Some piccies and a taster video of ‘Dog with Two Dicks’ from the album below :)
Slightly delayed post due to hideous tech problems but here goes….
Well I had a fab’n’groovy time down in London for Carter Tutti play Chris & Cosey, Live in Heaven, not only a great gig but catching up with loads of people from Twitterland and meeting some I’d never met before too!
Err… Excepter couldn’t make it due to unforseen problems and was replaced by Powell, who I missed but apparently it was a DJ set only. Next up was Mika Vainio (ex Pan Sonic) who did a full body internal organ massage (but then again I was standing next to the bass bin!) Short clip below…
… but of course I was there to see Chris & Cosey who played an excellent set as usual, altho still a rare thing! Short video of Workout below, I believe the whole performance was being filmed so look out for a more professional release in the (near?) future. BTW turn the volume up on both these videos, I was a dumb-ass and forgot my microphone! 8(
Mika Vainio
Charlie & Chris – checking SOUNDZ
More musicians than you could shake a stick at!
(Left-to-right – Uschi No Michi, Laica, Fabrice, P6, Joe Ahmed)
…and part of the fun too was catching up with some old friends and meeting new ones thru the wonderful medium of twitter, catching up with P6 & Joe from Security , Fabrice all the way from sunny Belgium , Stuart & Andy from the Psychogeographical Commision , Terry ‘Millemetre’ McGaughey who was on the merch stand, Charles ‘Charlie Chicken’ Poulet who was the sound man for the night, and especially meeting new friends, Uschi-No-Michi & Rich, Graham ‘Cybernoise‘ Needham and last but most certainly not least the wonderful Laica Thank you all for a wonderful day!

Carter Tutti performed Harmonic Coaction 6 the latest in the series of their site specific performances including field recordings and footage pertaining to the location of the performance. This gig was part of the University of Salford‘s Sonic Fusion 2013 festival.
The evening started with a screening of Mark Leckey‘s – Fiorucci made me Hardcore which I hadn’t realised is actually part of the University of Salford’s collection, full video below.
Holly Herndon fresh from San Fransisco, USA was the support act, I highly recommend you check her out live or indeed on vinyl, digital – whatever! Short clip from the show below.
And finally Carter Tutti performed Harmonic Coaction 6 – the UK premier for their Harmonic Coaction series of performances, a unique set inspired by the Salford location but with heavily manipulated audio and visual (projected onto a massive screen behind them). Two short clips below.
