Autechre Warp20 (New York)

 

  Quote

Warp20 (New York), the second of our birthday spectaculars, will take place between Thursday 3rd and Sunday 6th September, with paid and free events taking place in a variety of venues across the city.

 

Following on from Paris' Cite de la musique in May, Warp once again combines music performance and film as New York City becomes home to events that include two live concerts and a series of film screenings at venues all over Manhattan.

 

On Friday, September 4, Terminal 5 will present Battles (only North American show of 2009, first preview of brand new material), !!! (in their only NYC show of the year), Prefuse73 and Pivot. Then, on Saturday, September 5, The World Financial Center Winter Garden will host a free live event with performances by Clark, Hudson Mohawke and more special Warp guests as well as Warp DJs.

 

Throughout the weekend, The New Museum will host a series of screenings from Warp Films’ award-winning feature length, documentary and short films, as well as classic Warp artist music videos from the past 20 years.

 

Tomorrow night the Warp20 (New York) Kickoff Party takes place, presented by Wordless Music Series and Le Poisson Rouge, featuring the 20+ musicians of Alarm Will Sound performing pieces by Aphex Twin and Autechre, as well as a DJ set by Nic Offer from !!!

Hell yeah! Clark, Prefuse 73, Battles, !!! and HudMo. I'll try my damnedest to be there. And those accommodations sound awesome too.

I'm really pissed. I had planned on going, but I can't in September.

nice - didn't know Alarm Will Sound does also Autechre stuff

 

is this the last warp20 party or are there more to come?

alarm will sound are gods. i don't know if i can go to another electronic show - i'll just wait to see if AWS covers the songs

 

one of the percussionists gave me the drum notation for cfern :ninja:

Only Clark and Prefuse 73? Sheffield and Manchester's on coming events seem more appealing.

 

Plus they gave us french people afx, vibert, flying lotus and plaid...

And you will give it to the internet!

once i get home i'll scan it in and call for some PMs, around the 16th or 17th! i was shocked that they basically transcribed it in 12/8

It looks like Prefuse 73 has backed out of this one. But Flying Lotus will be taking his place. Now I'm all about some Flying Lotus, but I was really looking forward to seeing P73. Plus I've already seen FlyLo. He puts on a excellent show though so I can't complain!

i think i'd rather see flying lotus..i'm thinking about getting tickets for both days, i just got to find a place to sleep. it's in manhattan right?

fuck i want to hear that shit

I'll probably be there on Saturday.

THIS WEEKEND OH FUCK

I'm crossing my fingers for RDJ popping out of no where and begin playing the most amazing set he's ever played in his life. Then I'm hoping that he'll begin throwing copies of Konklaver out into the crowd, like magix pixie dust and rabid IDM fans and hipsters (there to see !!!) begin tearing each others heads off for the original copies.

 

Of course I will be victorious and will upload the album for you guys, don't worry.

See you motherfuckers tomorrow, I'll be wearing an Envane shirt if anyone wants to say hi.

jelous!

 

last time i went to a big Warp show is right after Sote's Electric Deaf came out

anybody as blown away from Flying Lotus as I was tonight? that was an incredible set.

flylo had a mind wrenchingly nasty set oh my godddddddddd. all the remixes he threw down?! and the tunes he played were sick!

 

i donnoo what the hell !!! was doing there, they didn't fit in imo but battles blew me away. judging by the new material they played we're in for something hugely sweet.

 

epic epic night.
