There was a night last November where
all of the amazing modern synth masters
converged in Brooklyn to play a show
that was unlike any other. Prehistoric
Blackout, No Fun Acid, Keith Fullerton
Whitman, and Oneohtrix Point Never
played at Glasslands (along with
Northampton Wools who didn't make it
onto this release for some reason) and
some kind souls decided it would be
worth their time to let the world hear
what kind of magic went down that one
fateful Synth Night.
Prehistoric Blackout's set is teeming
with inconsiderate douchebags talking
for the first half but otherwise is a
super sweet landscape of chimes and
alien jungle sounds. No Fun Acid drops
his crazy acid techno house shit, but
only after a dramatic 2 minute throbbing
drone intro and then he slips some
subtle beats into the mix. Before you
know it, the party is going full force,
people yelling and dancing and it's just
the best fucking non-rave ever.
Then Whitman comes on with scattered
beeps and bloops while people are still
chattering, trying to get their
attention before he launches a full
scale assault on their ears. Once things
get going, it's like the control panel
in a flying car is malfunctioning in the
most glorious way possible. Finally we
got OPN coming in to clean up, a perfect
set to follow KFW's. It starts out all
blorpy, gets itself in a major space
groove, then he brings in some divine
hazy drone and sprinkles it with his
trademarked synth noodling. Near
perfection.
Who couldn't love this stuff? 2
tapes/1.5 hours of live synth jams from
the dudes who do it best. Slick art and
packaging, double bubble case, vellum
cover AND insert, limited, this is just
too fucking cool. Get it while you can.
Tapes come packaged inside a 5x9 inch
vinyl case.
Comes with an insert.
