Techno treats @ SMACK this wednesday
SMACK @ the Basement club Mischief sth willaim st.
This wednesday we have a special treat for all you lovely people. Cube doing a full live hardware set, a visit from our friend Snuppa J and a bit of a techno baitin from Redrob/Darkmockeray/Keylockd.
Doors open at 8pm and free to walk through and pints are €4. they have a grand smokin area there too now. it goes on till half two and should be a bit of a laugh.
a little bit about the Cube fellas......
Thier music ranges from electro to breakbeat and techno with the focus on putting some of the feeling back into dance music, with big synth sounds, seriously catchy hooks and funky/bangin beats.
Cube (Sam Brady + Graham Teeling) formed about a year and a half ago and have worked solidly since then on thier own tracks using solely hardware synthesizers and drum machines (no computers at all so they wont be checkin emails while thier tracks play in the background :))
Sam has worked on various projects over the last 7/8 years including short film scores, solo electronic projects (several gigs in TBMC) and another partnership 'Brothers Unrelated' who played at the 'Smash Biotek' gigs in TBMC and many free parties.
Graham started out as a Drum'n'Bass Dj, but began mixing techno and breakbeat too, often playing at the same gigs as Sam. He took to production fairly quickly and has produced tracks ranging from Drum'n'Bass to ambient, electro, techno and breakbeat. He has worked on several projects with different prople over the last few years.
Some of you may remember them for glenart castle a few months ago at one of the earlier gigs of the year where they played to and pleased a great crowd. They also headlined the NCAD end of year ball this year and have played numerous parties since thier formation. They never fail to get the crowd moving and can guage very well what the people want to hear on the night.
They were recently booked to play at the 'Leechrum Festival' but as you may have heard the police ordered all sound systems off the premisis so thier gig was cancelled.
