new music thanks to fluid.

I keep talking about it, but I can’t help my self.
I’m really lucky to be living here in Philadelphia with a club like Fluid being as successful as it is. The small size combined with the rich talent that flows through it is a rare find.

Last night I went to yet another “Last Wednesday” event, this time it was featuring the tour of Magda and Richie Hawtin on the min2MAX tour.

I wish I had some way of recording snippits of the mixing from last night, or had somewhere to link you two, since the sound from Magda was something that I hadn’t quite heard before, and I’m going to look pretty hard for something on disk that she’s got for sale.

Richie Hawtin I’ve heard before, but never seen in person, his performance was good, though I think he took his artistic license a little to far. At somepoints he seemed to be more interested in exploring new noises then maintaining the beat… I know I was trying to keep my tempo up, but kept finding it lost in his beat changes.

The crowd was dense, but not obnoxious, and I’m always glad to see good numbers there, even though its a small venue. And being a wednesday night, you can’t argue with the quality of people in general who are there. Most are for real, true blue lovers of the music.
