Aston Shuffle did a gig at a prominent Darwin venue on Saturday as a part of their Clubber's Guide 2009 tour. We didn't stay for all of it, but they did quite a good show. One couldn't help but notice that they were slightly un-enthused (who could blame them?).
I'm always a bit skeptical when it comes to tours for mix compilations, as they don't usually stray too far from the tracklisting. Having said that they did play 'Love to Edit' by Crookers, which as far as I'm aware isn't on Clubber's Guide. The mixing was technical and very refreshing.
In other news; 'The Big Gig' in on this Saturday at Browns Mart. I highly urge everyone who isn't going to Pure Sounds to check out Fire! Santa Rosa, Fire!. They're from Adelaide and have been getting radio play with Triple J as a part of 'Uneathed'. (When did that become a year long event?)
And of course Pure Sounds in the Park. The inaugural 'Hard Dance' music festival at the Amphitheater...what's that? You didn't know it was a Hard Dance event? Don't worry, neither did most people. However, I think everyone is looking for any excuse to down a whole lot of narcotics and let their inner 90's rave child in fat pants come out and get their stomp on. Highlights include....uhh Pee Wee Ferris (who knew he was still alive?), Amber Savage (an angry feminist who plays hard style...sexy) and of course, the high-flying Darwin duo doing a 'live show' (very excited to see what this entails).
New mixes coming soon.
