On Friday 24 April 2009, stealth musicians Kode9 & the Spaceape, a British duo with followers from the streets of Croydon to the columns of the New Yorker, gave a rare live performance at the Bimhuis in Amsterdam. Here is a first impression of a new piece called ‘Other Man,’ due to appear on their long awaited second album in the end of 2009.
The performance of Kode9 & the Spaceape at the Bimhuis resembled, in duration, complexity and repetition, a traditional symphony. Their physical movement on stage was a bonus: a dark ballet of invisible limbs and ghostly vocals forming an architecture of abstraction. The track ‘Other Man’ can be added to the canon of electronic music, such imaginative power and urgent force it conveyed. Wireless electricity.
To celebrate 1 year of Beat Dimensions concerts at the Bimhuis, we have invited three of our favourite musicians to perform live in Amsterdam. Kode9 & the Spaceape will demonstrate their Bass Fiction live set, a rhythmically desolate and sonically dense architecture of sub frequencies, whilst Dimlite will display yet again why he is a master of mosaic textures and imaginative drum patterns. Digikid Cinnaman and laureate Juha will play music from a not so distant future in the bar before, between and after the concerts.
Doors open around 11, and the concerts start at 11.30. We look forward to seeing you there.
