It’s that time again, little robots! Come out to Park Grounds in Atlanta for Nophest 4 & 20 - two stage, tons of bands, April 18-20. Be there Saturday night for a rare appearance from the entire Harmaline combo as we perform our upcoming EP live and 3kStatic brings the future funkiness. $20 for all weekend pass, and did I mention the free beer? See you all there!

Anyone who is going to be in Miami for WMC should stop by the Sony Poolside Cabana at the National Hotel where I’ll be laying down a live FlightDynamics Mix for the Remix Hotel festivities on Friday night at 6pm. I’ll also be performing as part of 3kStatic on Saturday night with special guest Parthenon Huxley for what promises to be an interesting little shakedown. I’m really looking forward to catching some of the other sets this weekend (Richards Devine and Hawtin come to mind) and will be braving the elements as it were … anyone in the area, drop me a line!
Hi everybody - sorry if you’re getting tired of seeing me crosspost this all over the internets…
It looks like Logickal and 3kStatic are going to be heading back to NYC for the RemixHotel NY event between May 18-20, and I’m trying to see if there’s anyone in the area with an open performance slot at a show, (house) party, art gallery, etc. on either the 18th or 19th in order to maximize the trip up from Nashville. I have a feeling that the RemixHotel performances will be pretty aggressive and beat-oriented, so it would be very nice to fit in a more esoteric/atmospheric set somewhere over the weekend, although any and all opportunities would be great!
If anyone has anything going on, please drop me a line and let me know - I’m aware that it’s pretty last minute, so many thanks in advance for even the smallest lead or tip!
No, not really. But things have been so crazy recently, I finally got some time today to catch my breath… and even get the gutters cleaned. Anyway, with this episode, it only makes sense to cover the stuff that’s been keeping me busy, so… Enjoy!

This weekend is Nophest 4.20, featuring the debut of Harmaline on Saturday night (midnight) and 3kStatic on Sunday (7:30). A Wonderful Time is Guaranteed for All.
The lovely National Hotel, site of RHM…
…and the beautiful pool of the National. The MS suite was back about halfway down this photograph, on the left. Oh yeah, behind all the lovely foliage.
Taken on the Arthur Godfrey, looking North as we made our way to the inGrooves party…
…Which like all good parties should be, was held at a Mansion.
No, I wasn’t lying. I went on right after Lil Jon. I got this shot off while in the middle of getting set up. A few minutes later, I’d be simulataneously performing and answering Ableton Live questions from one of Lil Jon’s engineers. Fun stuff! Ask me more!

Dialing in, burning, triple-checking, schooling, focusing. Tomorrow I leave out to join Dean3k down in the FL for our little RemixHotel soiree’ - My sweet little debutante Sugarknife is accompanying me, to be revealed to the remainder of the human race once we make it back… Let’s go break some legs, eh?
Anyone down Miami/WMC way can check 3kStatic 8pm on Thursday, Logickal at 7pm on Friday and JPunch (or perhaps an encore performance from 3kStatic) 8pm on Saturday at the National Hotel on South Beach.
Just got a note that there is a shiny new dPulse sampler available from Xpressbeats.com featuring your intrepid crew… go check it out!
Ok, so any New York City types should come out tomorrow night (that’s the 17th of November for you unobservant time-traveling types)to the Ace of Clubs (9 Great Jones Street between Broadway and Lafayette) and say hi as 3kStatic brings the noise to the Big Apple for the second time this year. Doors open at 7 for this $10 show - also on the bill are Adam Lippmann, The Energy, Scarlet X and Telenovela Star (looks like 3k is the only electronic noise on the bill).
Update: Looks like the logistics are in, and I’ll be flying solo for this one! Come out if you’re in the area, and stay tuned for more exciting NYC 3kNews on the horizon!
the 3kStatic gigs in Florida aren’t happening, due to circumstances beyond our control. It’s pretty weird to say that. As a kid, I always wondered what those circumstances could be. I’ve got a much better idea of that now.
Oh, well. What can you do? You can go play NYC again, that’s what! More details on that shortly!
Yup - I’m 1/3 away from LP Age. Had a wonderful night out with my most favoritest people (at least those that are over the age of majority). Now rehearsal tonight and a short workweek before the trek to Florida for two 3kStatic gigs, opening up for none other than George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars in Ft. Lauderdale and Orlando. Really looking forward to it, for obvious reasons! Also, going to see the new Depeche Mode concert film tomorrow at the local IMAX. Oh, and my remix of Andrew Duke’s Consumer v. User samples has netted me a prize of some kind - I didn’t make the remix release, but was a semi-finallist. Thanks, Guys!
Busy times, but it’s the good kind of busy!
Oh, and before I forget - here’s the second half of Episode 32 of the podcast! More coming after I get back into town.
Felix Building - Sakura Week
Juno6 - Argonaut
Xyn - Tranquility (Acid Edit)
Felix Building - Headache Song
Cagey House - Like A Reptile
Juno6 - Into the Wind Stranded
Fisk Industries - The Azimuth At Zero Degrees
Drugs Made Me Smarter - Morning Glory Seeds at Sunset
Stefanos Kourtis - Sorry Acid
- The latest podcast was finished, but it didn’t work. For the first time, I’m withholding an episode for another take.
- I had thought I was going to go in for another take tonight, but instead I followed on with my adoption of Getting Things Done by emptying out my inbox to 0. 300-odd emails categorized, or else deleted. DELETED!!! Take that, disorganization!
- I think it’s okay for me to announce that I’ve officially joined 3kStatic as a member of the band. This is really, really cool as it gets me out of the house. Plus, Dean is a good guy to have on your side when you’re stuck on a Greyhound passing through Baltimore. Or when you’re driving through a torrential thunderstorm, moving north though Michigan. Or especially when you’re rocking as an anarchist techno collective. It all works, and I’m honored to be aboard.
- Building on the 3kStatic love, we’re going to be opening for no less than George Clinton and the P-Funk All Stars in Fort Lauderdale and the House Of Blues Orlando. How crazy is that?
- I upgraded to a newer version of K2, and now the css is all messed up. At least, that’s how it looks to me. I’ve got that as my next action for the blog, y’all - so the funky formatting shouldn’t last long.
In about an hour, Lilith and I are hitting the road with 3kMan Dean Capone to make the trek to meet our NYC Destiny at The Knitting Factory. If any of you are in the New York area, come out tomorrow night to get a dose of our road show, featuring two men in jackets laying down some seriously danceable grooves with the Remote 25 and the MacBook. Our journey is shaping up to be a urban techno trek across America, in many ways similar to Fellowship of the Rings… minus the little people, kings slumming as rangers in the wilderness (okay, so Angelique thinks this one is appropriate, for some reason), Elves with bows and that whole “one ring” thing. Oh, and we’re a little short on Gandolfs, too. Maybe it’s more like… Hmmm. No, it probably isn’t.
So, setting out armed with the MacBook, iPod, $50 worth of magazines and my crappy cameraphone, and I’m hoping I can document this little adventure I’ve gotten myself into! Stay tuned.
