Great news, Surgeon<\/b> is finally coming down to play in Australia in October, and will be playing Sydney for the first time, thanks to the Index\/Void crew.<\/p>\n
21 Oct 2010 – Brisbane @ White Rhino – Step In
\n22 Oct 2010 – Melbourne @ Likes Of You – Roxanne Parlour
\n23 Oct 2010 – Sydney @ Index Presents… – The Forum<\/p>\n
The last time he played in Australia was in September 2000. We went down to Melbourne to see him play at the ‘Pure Flow 5’ party. James Ruskin<\/b> also played at the same party, check out the flyer front<\/a> | back<\/a>. <\/p>\n My partner Joanne, is a massive fan of his techno music, and has seen him perform live every trip to Europe, quite a few times now. She even travelled to a Spaghetti Western town in the desert of Tabernas\/Almeria in Spain to see him play at the Western Music Festival in 2003. She’s met and spoken with him and his lovely wife a number of times now too.<\/p>\n The last time we saw him play live was as part of British Murder Boys<\/b> with Regis<\/b>, at Fabric in London, July 2007, it was brutal, as was going to the airport straight after for our flight back to Sydney.<\/p>\n Between us we have vinyl and CDs of just about everything he’s released on labels like: Tresor, Downwards, Dynamic Tension, and CounterBalance, plus a heap of his remixes on various other labels. <\/p>\n We have many favourite Surgeon<\/b> tracks and remixes: Magneze, Badger Bite, (Intro) Version II, La Real, Sleep Ultra Violet, The Advent – It One Jah (Surgeon Remix), to name a few. <\/p>\n I’m not as into these sounds these days, but for quite a few years there in the early 2000s I had a big passion for them, bedroom banging away with them.<\/p>\n Surgeon<\/b> moved to digital DJing many years ago for his live performances, using Ableton Live on a laptop, with external controllers. He’s really perfected the technique, blending together a varierty of sounds, styles, and tempos, making for a fantastic listening and dance-floor experience.<\/p>\n His sets are no longer all storming techno, surgically layered, he’s quite eclectic musically now, covering all kinds of electronica, industrial, EBM, experimental, noise, dubstep, slowed drum’n’bass, wth beautiful melodies, with some layers of his signature Birmingham techno sound, and nods to past prototype techno and classic electronic music. Check his site, for some recent mixes. <\/p>\n
