Tinariwen at KOKO

Wednesday 26th October, Tinariwen playing live at KOKO.

One of the best gigs I've been to! KOKO was packed! Tinariwen played for about 1.5hrs, they had such good energy, the crowd loved it! Everyone was dancing and clapping, such a good vibe! It was almost emotional seeing everyone so into it and also such a mixed crowd, everyone loving it! Another super successful Soundcrash event!



If you haven't had the chance to see them yet, don't miss them next time they play London, I think rumour has it they should be back early next year.

Debruit free download

Today I've been checking out french DJ and producer, Debruit. Next Thursday Debruit was supposed to be supporting Tinariwen at their gig at Roundhouse, which has been cancelled. I'm still going to see Tinariwen at their gig at KOKO, but unfortunately it seems that Debruit won't be there supporting them. It's a real shame, I was really looking forward to seeing both... Anyway, in an effort to keep myself happy I found this free download of one of Debruit's tracks; Pony. I really love what he does, it's so versatile, everything he realeases is so different, so original. It's always intriguing to see what he'll do next! I love the way he creates a collage of electro and whatever sound from around the world he can get his hands on.

And here's another great remix by Four Tet!

I'm also really looking forward to seeing Tinariwen! They are playing in London on September 26th at the Roundhouse and on the 27th at KOKO. I think I'll go to the Roundhouse to also see Debruit, who's also on that night.
