Overkill Events in Brighton & London
Littlebig & friends launch new Overkill events in Brighton & London ::
A series of 5 different events at the end of october in Brighton
& a monster party spread over 3 rooms at the Electrowerkz on Nov 4th.
INFO :: www.overkill.me.uk
The first OVERKILL SERIES takes place in various Brighton venues over October 21st ? 25th. Offering up a cross section of edgey live music hand picked from around the world (and Brighton!). Setting the tone for the Overkill style, a wide range of music and visual styles are showcased over four very different gigs.
Friday 21st kicks off the weekend with DJ Vadim?s One Self hiphop project at the Concorde 2. One Self is ninja-tune new supergroup, comprising of Vadim?s most successful collaborators. A full live show featuring Blurum 13, Yarah Bravo, Dj Vadim and Dj Woody. Live support from Medicine Children.
Saturday 22nd is a secret Overkill party (entry only if you go to another Overkill event!) with DJ Cylob, Tim Exile, DJ ScotchEgg and N>E>D ? a selection of electronic mavricks noted for their uncompromising take on live / laptop performance.
Monday 24th The full spectrum of Overkill?s vision is on display this evening. The excellent Carabou band (formerly Manitoba) headline with rare live shows from Icarus and Matt Yee King. Whilst electronic pioneers, Arovane and audio-visual masters Ultre play their Brighton debuts. Blip & Tim Exile encapsulate the event with their specially made
interactive installations. A real sensory feast in true Overkill style!
Tues 25th The ?Hard As Fuck? night at the Ocean Rooms is the final rinse from the Overkill series. Fronted by Planet Mu?s Chevron, a blistering line up of gabbatronic live sets & Djs is in store. An ultra-rare set from The DJ Producer alongside fellow Death Chant label mates Technoist + Dolphin and Wrong Music main man Shitmat will not disappoint!
24th-30th October. Alongside the music events, Blip are hosting a series of interactive exhibitions and workshops. These are all free to enter, located in the Fringe Basement and will feature soundtoys.net, ixi-software, laptop jams and a whole host of other technology-related showcases. Many of the exhibitions have an interactive element and there are competitions to enter so get involved and win some great prizes.
