Going to see him perform live this Sunday at Optimo, I've not seen him before but I'm looking forward to this - can anyone warn me of what to expect?

I saw him about a month ago in Los Angeles. He played a really hard-dark kind of industrial/ebm influenced set of techno. Think Terrence Fixmer. He was pretty o.k.

Sounds like I'll be getting the same kind of thing...





Sunday October 16th - Adam X Live

Hailing from Brooklyn, Adam X (http://www.djadamx.com/) has been involved with electronic music since the birth of the rave era. For many years he helped run the legendary New York record shop 'Sonic Groove' and has dj'ed around the planet. In recent years he has returned to his first love which is industrial / electronic body music. He describes his current sound as a unique brand of post-techno, post-industrial electronics. This obscure fuel for the dance floor has transformed into a diabolical mixture of sonic abrasion and industrial techno assault.

We felt Optimo was long overdue some sonic assault and Adam X is the perfect man for the job. If your ears are sensitive, we suggest either staying at home or bringing some earplugs. This will be a relentless live half hour. We will also be presenting this performance in a unique new way for the club which if it works will be how we present solo performers in the future. Let's just say that Mr. X will be at the very heart of the club

Didn't know Adam was doing shit live now. Definitely expect lots of gritty dark abrasive sounds and definitely bring some earplugs. Dude likes to play loud and has a tendency to blow speakers.

haven't heard his live PA but his DJ sets lately are angry, dirty, nasty, evil power noise. 100% awesome.
