Central Brighton plays host to the third annual Loop Festival, 11th to the 12th of July 2009 with an inspired mix of live DJ acts, visual artists and special guests. To conclude the preview, a few more acts not to be missed this year.
That face, it looks familiar…..well it is. Plugs, fronted by Does It Offend You Yeah? former member, Morgan Quaintaince, combine a fusion of DIOYY’s edgy rock/dance stylee with a sound more commonly associated with Hot chip, Clor and bands a-like. Bands heavily reliant on programing and synthesizer panache can eventually drain on your ears, especially live, often falling in-between the no mans land between live music and the dance floor. This is not the case however with Plugs, who are certainly less Nathan Barley than DIOYY, with evidently more songwriting ability- my top pick for the festival.
You can also catch “We Have Band” & equally as impressive, Data Rock on the Saturday.
Micawber favourite, Zomby, will be joined on the Saturday night by Marie Anne Hobbs at Concorde 2. Zomby, (who’s sound has provoked this rather amusing piece of journalism from the guardian, “Feeling wonKy: is it ketamine’s turn to drive club culture?“)has a much more distinguishable sound than the name suggest and an even wider circle of fans, thanks to his genre-defining sound that has seen his records played across the music spectrum. Erol Alkan, Ricardo Villalobos through to Animal Collective (who he supports in New York later in the year) are smashing his tunes, who alongside other UK talent such as Rustie & Hudson Mowake, creating a scene I’m labeling, “the indescribables”
Joakim’s full live band doesn’t tour very often, but we’ve heard great things about it. One of our favourite producers, Joakim has had resurgence after a quiet period. Last year he released an album collecting all his remixes over the years and it reminded us once again why he’s one of the finest producers in the world. He’s playing in the afternoon on Sunday in the Pavilion Theatre.
Esser and Solid Gold are the remaining picks for Sunday.
If you really cant wait for the weekend, the guys over at Blah Blah Blah have kindly provided a mix to get you through Friday in the office…
