Remote In:duction.co.uk July
'01 […]Eventually we get in and are presented with a DJ set to lead us up to the first band - the only place this mob were listed was on the poster - so I can only remember that it was Giant Tank versus someone else. There were three of them on a corner of the stage and they went for the whole recontextualisation set up - play a bit of this a bit of that, add a little "humour" and "experimentation" and your laughing. Seen that before, several times, amused first time and progressively bored and unimpressed ever since, as every wannabe thinks they can mix their 70's rock collection (Queen, Kiss, ZZ Top, Black Sabbath) with modern electro glitching (fat cat type stuff) and kiddy tunes they have collected (including Postman Pat) with a little bit of Hip-hop (dr. dre) and whatever else thrown in. These guys were nothing special, and as their set went on they just became downright irritating - there failure to allow anything to build or develop was probably deliberate, as was their scratching and pitch shifting... yawn! With an air of arrogance and time dragging on, someone should be glad that I didn't have paper to hand at the time, but now I can't be bothered wasting any more time on these people. 'Peter' |
