We are all very excited for The San Francisco Laptop and Machine Battle coming up 11/10/2007. The response has been overwhelming.

If you would still like to register please do it now. Registration to battle ends 10/17/2007!!! M-Audio is planing to have a video crew there to document the event. Special Thanks to our sponsors for the awesome prizes!

Eine Fundgrube innovativer Elektronik-Sounds öffnet man mit dem Kauf dieser CD aus dem Hause Dale City. Dabei sind Künstler wie der schön öfter positiv aufgefallene Mochipet, Bloodysnowman, Daedalus (schön sein „Crazy Dancing“, das die Pianobar in die Dancehall integriert, und zwar in die vorderste Ecke) oder Spacetheater, der bei „Freakfest“ Saxophon, Flöte und Congas zu einem faszinierenden HipHop-Jazzteppich webt. Auch Edit mit seiner feinen Feier des durch und durch gestörten Streichinstruments („The Perscription“) bzw. der Zerschießung des feinen Jazzfundaments („Ruffles“) schlägt sehr lohnende Gänge in den Gehörstollen. Elektronika, HipHop, klassische Harmonien – hier geht alles zusammen. Mit dieser CD im Player geht der Sommer, der sich doch merklich dem Ende neigt, noch ein ganzes Stückchen weiter.

Check out The Bad Hand MP3 “Grand Theft Bravo” on Pitchfork Media


The Bad Hand is a rad new trio from San Francisco, California. They’ve got quite a few tricks up their sleeves these days. They are drums (David Addison), guitar (Tony Amato) and Rhodes piano (Korben Dallas), for the most part. They like to switch things up a lot by adding other instruments and guests to their line up. The songs off their new album, This Is No Time for Modesty (Daly City/Prankster Dice Records), are a cadenced exploration of melody. Viscous guitar rhythms blend beautifully with the eerie and delicate sound of the Rhodes. The drummer simply has a unique style of his own and changes it up as often as possible. The Bad Hand always takes the ear by surprise. Enjoy..
