Description:
How much bang can you get for five bucks? A colossal wave of feathers, jewels, leathers and fur; a nerve-rattling audio explosion of kazoos, melodicas, vacuums and strings; a few hot minutes rolling around in warm mud with a stranger; a hypnotic, harmonious gathering of friends and lovers, performers and punters; foxy women boasting retina-singeing pink tights; chesty men wearing y-fronts and nothing else; Love is Science Fiction, Ships Piano, The Strange Attractions and a microphone - all of the above, on stage, every Wednesday night at The Tote.

Description:
Respond to a question with “Uh-Huh” and you’re agreeing with “sure,” “of course,” or “alright!” Add an ‘n’ to say, “Nuh-Huh” and the meaning of your expressive grunt is turned on its head. This response, as lazy as a convulsive exclamation, can pretty much mean anything with the right tone.

Harshup Edge EP
Aphex Twin, AFX, Caustic Window, Bradley Strider, The Tuss – doesn’t matter; the godfather of electronica’s sound is unmistakeable. Hot on the heels of the 11-volume Analord series – a collection of acid-electro dubs – Richard D. James is back with his first properly visionary material since 2002’s intense major label double album, Druqks.
After Dark
Baby Boomers' Disco chintz returns emasculated and in altogether more sinister form with the new Italians Do It Better compilation, After Dark. Recent 12" and blog-only tracks by label artists Chromatics, Glass Candy, Farrar, Professor Genius and Mirage plunder Moroder and Studio 54 signifiers with cool and deadly intent, electro-shocking their falling synth patterns, Cabasa'n'bass rhythms, vocoder and electrolised strings to new, mercurial heights.
