Black Meteoric Star

[matt]

Especially for stimpee who (like me) misses the days the headset forum was a hive of activity and great for finding out about new music.

This is the new acid house project from DFAs Gavin Russom and is simply wonderful.

As 20jazzfunkgreats put it much better than I ever could:

"Black Meteoric Star is the sound of gamma rays raping every single termination of our nervous system as we cruise empty worlds in an inverted monolyth of chrome and titanium named after a Joseph Conrad novel, destination nova. It all kicks off with Death Tunnel, a chugging piece of Synthetic Body Music to soundtrack declarations of war against whole universes, it looks like a Panther, moves like a panther, bites like a panther too. Dystopian tech album of the year, no shit kids"

You can find a few songs scattered around the usual blogs and if you want to check out what it sounds like check out the track on You Tube

You can also download/stream a 30 minute live performance and DJ set from Gavin Russom over on beats in space

That live performance was nice.

The DJ set is so random, but I liked the song choices.

'dominatron' - it's like a less-exciting 'acperience', really; but you'd be happy to hear it out!
