I really enjoyed it, awesome minimal\/tech sounds from start to finish, had me dancing non stop. A fantastic performance! I&#8217;ve been a big fan of his sounds for the last couple of years, have bought just about everything he&#8217;s released. I wish I heard his tracks played out more often here in Sydney, quality music! Andrew Wowk wrote a great review of the night, check it out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.inthemix.com.au\/events\/reviews\/30643\/Laundry_feat_Alex_Smoke_Chinese_Laundry_Sydney_270107\">here<\/a>. It was really quite comfortable in the cave surprisingly, cool with space to move, and a great vocally appreciative, music loving crowd. I think the minimal and intelligent vibe\/sounds went over the heads of the usual d*ckhead element that you come across at this venue, and kept them in the other rooms.<\/p>\n<p>More info on <strong>Alex Smoke<\/strong>&#8230;<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.vakant.net\/\">http:\/\/www.vakant.net<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.somarecords.com\/artists\/alexsmoke\">http:\/\/www.somarecords.com\/artists\/alexsmoke<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/artist\/Alex+Smoke\">http:\/\/www.discogs.com\/artist\/Alex+Smoke<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/alexsmoke1\">http:\/\/www.myspace.com\/alexsmoke1<\/a><\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re quick, you can download a bunch of <strong>Alex Smoke<\/strong> mp3 live sets from here: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.somacorp.com.au\">http:\/\/www.somacorp.com.au<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I also went to the <strong>Becks Festival Bar &#8211; Mad Racket @ Hyde Park Barracks<\/strong> for a few hours before Chinese Laundry, and checked out <strong>Hot Chip [Live]<\/strong> and <strong>DJ Chris Duckenfield<\/strong>.
