  • STS9 Live Quotes 2016
    STS9 Live Quotes 2016 “To say they brought the house down would be an understatement. They didn’t bring it down, they raised it to a higher plane. This was one of those shows. You know, the ones that remind you that music is the universal language. That it doesn’t matter who you are or where you're from, when the groove hits your soul your body has to move. Sound Tribe Sector 9 doesn’t chat on stage, they don’t physically interact with the crowd, they play music. They play some of the best music you will ever hear. They are masters of the inescapable build…The crowd is brought to a frenzy, over and over again throughout the night. The transition from groove to peak is incredible. The band’s skill is breathtaking. Every number goes through a myriad of musical genres, soulful funk to bring the smiles, dirty rock to make you stomp, everyone complimented by the innovation, complexity of sound and driving rhythms of electronic music…A light show so colorfully intricate and well coordinated that I could have sworn I was seeing sound, perfected the evening in a way that will serve as a constant reminder of why I write about music.” --Clara Goode, Bullet Music (8/31/16) “[Their] sets were pure bliss as the band fired on all cylinders.” --Nick Baffa, GratefulMusic.com (9/7/16) “Saxton Waller‘s light show [took] things to a whole other level, with an array of beautiful colors creating something out of 2001: A Space Odyssey.

  • Liberated Punks Accelerate China’S Musical Evolution
    About blogs Just another WordPress weblog Liberated Punks Accelerate China’s Musical Evolution From Pigface and Ministry to PiL and Killing Joke, drummer Martin Atkins has pounded the skins for some very loud punks. But he didn't realize that China's underground sound would throw him into a time machine and dial it back to the '70s and '80s, when bands were pushing the envelope on conventional rock and not really caring how you felt about it. Atkins shot 80 hours of video from his 2006 trip into Asia's 21st century powerhouse, and chopped it down into the recently released documentary Sixteen Days in China . Listening Post caught up with him to talk about China's greatest bands you've never heard and more. Wired.com: How did your experiences with Ministry and your other bands match up to the scene you witnessed in China? Martin Atkins: I think time and location has more relevance, like London in 1977, New York in 1980 or maybe Chicago 1989. These were cities that had exploding scenes that I managed to be a small part of. Add to that some entrepreneurial what-the-fuck-ness, and there you go! The backdrop is different, but the immersion, the focus on just the music and attitude feels like a definite ripple from those times. It doesn't feel strategized in a careerist way. The guys in D-22, who now have a label called Maybe Mars, and their venue reminded me of the vibe of CBGB's. While I was over there, I saw the club on CNN, and that rang a bell for me.
