The Dark Room returns with another two carefully curated live electronic acts, featuring ORGANARCHY & LUKESNARL in an exclusive venue for a special Mayday Edition. ORGANARCHY has been active since 1996 as a collective of cut-and-paste technoids dedicated to crafting politically charged soundscapes at community parties & underground gatherings. Their rig is a mash up of analogue & digital hardware, the sound a live fusion of samples & machine grooves. Members of the band previously played in Non Bossy Posse as rebel rousing rave-olutionary techno anarchists in the early 90s. The recordings remain anticopyright freeware, designed for amplification at events that push for a better future.
Since the early 90s LUKESNARL has probably been better known as the FX part of the "Decks'n'FX" duo Sub Bass Snarl, wherein he uses samplers, effects units, synths and other hardware to augment the group's sonic output, making it more of a sound system than deejay duo. The last decade however has seen him delve into the esoteric world of modular synthesisers, wielding cables and flexing the extreme possibilities of the format to replace most of the equipment used in his previous Sub Bass Snarl outings. More recently he has been developing custom setups for performing solo electronic sets of original electronic music and tonight he performs in a rare live appearance.
There will be substantial rigs at this event with a lot of patch cables for nerds to ogle. Please stand back when taking photos. In support, DJs Minim & Kmart will open the doors from 6pm.
DJ MINIM has formerly played under the name DJ Ding for over three decades at events such as The Big Day Out, Natural Experience, Freaky Loops, the Liquid Labyrinth bush doofs & lots of epic rave parties back in the 90s. He has worked with Clan Analogue since 1992. Expect a set of downbeat techno with dance-inspiring shuffles.
DJ KMART has been a feature of the Sydney underground for 30 years instigating renegade parties & playing under various monikers. His style is diverse encompassing breaks, dub, punk, electronic & soul but he will go appropriately analogue and noisy tonight.
