NY/NY
Lineup:
Society Suckers (Kool Pop / Peace Off / Lux Nigra, Berlin)
Aaron Spectre (Mashit / op8 NYC / Berlin)
**the Society Suckers** make make frantic, precisely arranged
psychedelic pogo trash music. born out of a frustration with
emotionless dance music, 1997's debut "Anti-carnivore" featured their
trademark ultrahigh frequency melodies and precisely arranged hyper
breakbeats, becoming a breakcore standard before the genre had a name.
the Society Suckers' live shows blend focused turntable skills with
emotionally charged gear tormenting - it's a manic combination of
Breakcore opera, Rave hooks, pogo anthems and structural mayhem. they
have a long history of performing in Europe, with artists such as
Venetian Snares, DJ Scud, Patric Catani, Kid606, din-st, DJ/Rupture,
Hrvatski, dropthelime, and melt banana. they have records out on
labels like Mental Ind., Kool.Pop, Lux Nigra, Peace Off and Amex.
**Aaron Spectre** makes digital sounds with a distorted soul, fragile
melodies sprinkled with urban grit, grime layered over dense harmonies.
grown in Boston, hardened in the nyc pressure cooker, and engineered in
Berlin, Aaron works in a number of different styles from Ambient to
glitchy Electronica to Breakcore to Ragga Jungle. Aaron's live sets
reveal his hardcore + Punk roots, in aesthetic if not in sound.
refusing to sit motionless behind a laptop, he tweaks and re-works
tracks on the fly with varoius midi controllers + a fistful of energy
and diy enthusiasm. Aaron has played throughout Europe and North
America, with artists such as Hrvatski, /Rupture, Datach'i,
Soundmurderer, Mixmaster Morris, Richard Devine, and DJ Vadim.
