Tunnels of turbulence

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.
