Great night at the velodrome races. Met some great folks and looking forward to help out on some AWLF projects.
Beck x Lincoln Motor Company x Chris Milk. Not surprised that Beck is the forefront for this project due to the unique approach he always seems to bring to the table. Along with a full 360 degree stage, he is surrounded by 160 musicians of all kinds to help bring this David Bowie classic to life.
Tracklisting:
1. Rocking Carol (a.k.a. We Will Rock You)
2. Ode To Joy
“We can’t remember if this was Xmas present to the Hacienda regulars or just a crazy idea. Certainly it involved taking a New Order piece that they’d recorded for a local TV Xmas special the previous year and making a flexi out of it. As far as we remember it was Beethoven’s Ode to Joy, but we don’t have a record player any more so we can’t be sure.”
A Limited edition of 4400 were given away at the Haçienda, Christmas Eve, 1982.

The Chromosaturation by Carlos Cruz-Diez creates an artificial environment composed of three color chambers, one red, one green and one blue that immerse the visitor in a completely monochrome situation. This experience creates disturbances in the retina, accustomed to receive wide range of colors simultaneously. The Chromosaturation can act as a trigger, activating in the viewer the notion of color as a material or physical situation, going into space without the aid of any form or even without any support, regardless of cultural beliefs.
David Byrne & St.Vincent were so amazing last night. It was great to hear some oldies played.
