Guest David R James Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Sounds like there mite be something 'live' going on for a change. For the first time since 1904 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BLOCwknd Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 What is the track on the opening screen of the website its sick! It is 'Dave' by Ed Chamberlain. on this - http://www.discogs.com/release/1382513 If you haven't come accross him before, you should check him out he has made some truly incredible music. http://www.myspace.com/edchamberlain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaproy Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 A lineup of sheer quality across the board! Very tempted indeed! Edit = corrected dodgy spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest griever Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 that sounds nice, i hope he will not just be playing noise with hecker . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hijexx Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 It says "live" next to artists that are playing live. I'd expect another DJ set with the occasional unreleased track from AFX Labs Inc. thrown in for good measure. Pairing up with Hecker is just setting me up for disappointment personally. Think I'll make the trip for the rest of the lineup though, wow. FSOL will be a treat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soundwave Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 http://www.blocweekend.com Thats one hell of a lineup, I've gotta start planting seeds over xmas for a lift. :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hijexx Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 So far I've got 95% chance ktpa-sine-wank; 5% chance mind-blowing. I guess the two aren't mutually exclusive but neither RDJ nor Tim Hecker give a shit about giving fans what they want. No one gives a shit really, i.e. Just A Souvenir, Quaristice, etc. but that's a different story/forum. Guess it depends on what mood they're in. Hecker's been entering a newer space in the last few years. If it wound up being AFX on beats and Hecker on the ethereal side, some sort of funky Autechre like symbiosis, that could be something special.

perunamuusi Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 i spoke to hecker recently and he mentioned that along with richard, he was working on a midi compatible table-tennis table and bats for a live performance i know that richard is shit hot at ping pong and presumably hecker is too for him to be working on this he kept talking about "uncertainty algorithms" and how the bats have an "impregnated neural network" it was all a bit too mind boggling for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brian trageskin Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 i don't know that "hecker" guy but afx playing with "the hacker" would have been much more exciting. to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bunty Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Noticed bloc weekend was reading this topic a second ago. Guess he didn't want to correct any of the speculation that it's just going to be another DJ set (or ktpa wank) Not holding my breath, then...

Guest hahathhat Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 maybe instead of a ktpa wank it'll be a klf wank or vlf earth jam or elf night elf you know Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Solo Strike Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 http://www.blocweekend.com another Aphex gig... Solo Strike, are you going? You are a good candidate for some proper track identification Not going, I've got Bangface weekend tickets. I will say this year Bloc is providing immensely strong competition though. Seeing this is a collab performance I wouldn't expect too many track ID's ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
