Spandex - “I love my V50″

September 15th, 2008
Your very own Spandex has been honing a jacking liveset over the past year or so and his London debut is on Saturday September 27th at the great Sub night.

If that’s not enough for you he will be playing alongside THE BLACK E , the fearsome duo of Plow compadre Cristian Vogel and the multi-talented Ben Pest.

Spandex live at Sub

Despite the artists coming from as far as Barcelona and.. Nottingham… it’ll definitely be a ‘home crowd’ and a great atmosphere so please join us.

SUB returns, this time showcasing the best of Cristian Vogel’s Sleep Debt label. Following on from their awesome live PA at Bloc 2008 (the highlight of the weekend for us), The Black E (Cristian Vogel & Ben Pest) return for another improvised, hardware mash-up, playing their own style of techno; forward thinking, but with strong roots in the Chi-Town, Jacking Minimal sounds of the early 90s. Not to be missed!! Spandex will also be dropping by for more hardware based techno mayhem, and if that’s not enough, Coin Operated CEO, DJ Mustard Gunn will be finishing things off with his bag of bangers.

Saturday 27th September /// 9pm – 3.30am /// £7
Gramaphone, Commercial St, E1
Buy tickets in advance here.

All nicely warming up for the new Spandex 12″ due early 2009.

After many months of delay the vinyl of the Beckett & Taylor release World of Me will finally hit the shops next monday, 5th May 2008.

Jesus. Thank god for that. But we can’t really just piss about as we are knees deep with the writing of our debut album. It’s going to be a cracker, we hear the summer of 2008 is ‘all about wonky’.

World of Me

To celebrate the milestone of finally getting HOTP007 out the door we are giving away a free MP3 of Me Too. Me Too is our remix of the title track which you can download by clicking here. Or listen with the widget below.

Nothing needs to rhyme with me, the singer growls, and indeed, it’s hard to see what could. The song’s in its own league.” - Pitchfork Media

“…they make for an odd couple, but then that’s what B&T are all about.”

“Superbly brain-wrong bit of human/machine hybrid funk that sits right outside of genres” - Mixmag
