Anyone else going to this show?
I'm so stoked, apparently he's playing all new material.
Someone go so I have someone to hang out with

Wish I could!
Record the show, and we'll hang out and listen to it online?

Don't have one of those either haha. But I did see a guy with a recorder there last night, so perhaps comb through the internet in the next couple days for a recording.
He was having a lot of technical problems last night, his laptop session kept fucking up/disconnecting from his interface. I think they ended it a bit early, but it was still a crazy experience. The physical presence of all the sound was incredible. Getting punched in the chest with sound is scary/funny.
The set was him and two other musicians playing live percussion, electronic drums and synth. All new material. Think Ben Frost textures with a lot of polyrhythmic/primal drumming and a dash of electro leads/noise a la Pete Swanson or even Crystal Castles. It was so, so cool. I heard him tell someone to expect the new album out this fall.
He said hi to me. I was star-struck
