So I’m here at Audio Doughnuts, and this is the first ever time I’ve posted from my iPhone. It’s at Crucifix Lane, not to far from the sweat Dubstep pit that is Cable, where many just go to grind some ass or get a blowjob on the sofas at the top of the bar. I’m just making assumpions, but hey that’s what most people do at a Dubstep rave isn’t it?
But yes, I bumped into Lando Kal, again, he’s still keeping it cool from last time I met him for the first time at Plan B, where my family (well I like to call them family), Shades Of Grey, booked him to perform at their night. There were brilliant vibes that night and photos are up on the Facebook page, which is http://www.facebook.com/yetanotherblogspot.
So as per for a first entrance post, if you’ve never been to Crucifix Lane, let me just tell you that it is a brilliant venue. The main room, which I’m standing in now as I post this, has a large tunnel shape, like a tube station with high ceilings. Acoustics are brilliant even though it is literally just a case of chucking a soundsystem in a tunnel!
Audio Doughnuts have also fitted not one, but two projectors with moving graphics. It definitely feels like an underground festival/concert, but I don’t want to call it a concert, because concert just sounds really mainstream. Henry Moller, Founder of Audio Doughnuts has actually just told me they have lasers installed today as well.
To conclude, I have to say so far, along with this melodic warm up set and my ice cold can of Red Stripe (literally kept in a bucket of ice), it’s not a case of heaven on Earth, but heaven under Earth.
More to follow along with photos by Chris Krilly from Audio Doughnuts, which I am yet to ask permission for when I do my full review ;)
