| Yep, the Père du Meuble of noise music himself, Masami Akita, "performed" live last tuesday as part of Cité des Ondes [ www.champlibre.com ]
The music (haha) was great, nicely structured, and harsh enough for me.
The crowd was full of artwhores and Mutek geeks, i.e. people I cannot stand, so I won't comment on that.
For $5 it was worth it. |

Coolness: 300045
| woah. did he fall asleep on his keyboard? |
|
Coolness: 56120
| No, he was playing with two laptops only. He looked autistic. |
|
Coolness: 300045

| Merzbow: slight deformation of the word "merzbau", invented by German Dada artist Schwitters in the 1920s to describe his works.
Masami Akita has been making noise since the late 1970s. |

| damn merzbow was in town and I missed it :(
Yeah, I cannot stand those art freaks / mutek geeks.. where the hell do these people come from? The Plateau?
How come people have to try and even make weird electronic music elitest? I mean I can understand candykids being elitests or junglists being elitests but how the hell do you define an experimental music elitest? MY NAME IS RAVEN, AND I AM AN ELITEST ASSHOLE... |

| I bet aphex twin is an elitist...
but then again, he deserves to be |
|
Coolness: 300045
| Scotty you are part of these mutek geeks... |
|
Coolness: 67235
| Mutek gives hope to the electronic music scene in Montreal. |

| yea! aphex twin! |
|
Coolness: 56120
| I've never seen a live ostrage, so I can't answer.
Mutek geeks are just everywhere! They think that anything with a beat is immature. |
|
Coolness: 67235
| funny you say that
since Mutek has a lot of experimental house
which has a beat!
but mind you
90% of all four to the floor music is immature. It hasn't evolved. Mutek sheds some hope to this though. When I went to go see Radio Boy live at one of the Mutek concerts this year, I was subjected to an abundant dosage of minimal / tech house. Some of it was actually not all that bad. |

| Mutek sucks, period.
"IDM" is the most hypocritical name ever given to music. |
|
Coolness: 340385
| 4 on 4 music is immature?
how do you want it to evolve? move to 4.5 on 4? |
