thx 4 posting your concert review Joeri, red it . Bumped info Snah, before the concert @ Botanique, glad I had a short chat with him…tough I forgot to ask how he got the magic out of his guitarplay

Snah is the one and only true guitar hero :MPD

Taifun is always a plessure hearing…it always depends in which mood Snah is I guess how long the jam is going to be.

I’ve ones heared a version that took ’bout 11min’s and last time @ bota it was only 7m :wink:

Dear ffBernie, have you used my Bota recordings I’ve send you via the post for this vidz ?

Or were they just to much out of tune for your video compilation?

Have nothing heard anymore from you, no news, good news i pressume?

sounds a nice set list to me…strange entry but what an ending, Vortex is always the perfect ending for a cool gig.

One more show @ Trix (Antwerp) please, that was really amazing stuff they showed overthere last year.

I wil drop a line to Trix- organisation, maybe they’re interested again :wink:

Zover is het nog niet voor het Noorse trio Motorpsycho, die al meer dan twintig jaar samen spelen, maar nog steeds vooral door muzikanten en journalisten genamedropt worden. Niettemin was de Orangerie van de Botanique vrij goed gevuld, maar de groep wordt dan ook steeds beter: op de laatste plaat ‘Little Lucid Moments’ versmelten ze al hun invloeden (de door collega’s opgelijste referenties gaan van country en sixtiespop tot acid rock en stoner metal) tot vier indrukwekkende composities waarvan de kortste maar liefst elf minuten doorgaat en de langste onvervaard de grens van de twintig overschrijdt.

Stevige stuff, en dat weerspiegelde zich ook in het materiaal dat de band had opgelijst voor zijn passage in de Botanique: bluesy rammelriffs gaven uit op ongerepte soundscapes vol dreigende drones, nu en dan onderbroken door onverbiddelijke vlagen van witheet lawaai. Gelukkig kwamen de bekvechtende gitaren telkens tijdig tot inkeer tijdens wat meer ingetogen passages, die werden ingekleurd door de klagerige samenzang van de muzikanten. De resulterende kettingbotsing van klanken werd nog in de hand gewerkt door de onvervaard voortgalopperende drummer, die zonder de aandacht op te eisen van geen ophouden wist. Hoogtepunten heetten ‘Little Lucid Moments’ en ‘Year Zero’ (allebei van de nieuwe plaat), maar ook ‘Triggerman’ was fantastisch.

Leuk was dat we in dit betrekkelijk kleine zaaltje de riffs rechtstreeks vanuit de versterkers van beide gitaristen tegen elkaar konden horen botsen. Helaas bleek één van die versterkers tevens vastbesloten om ook de radio te laten horen, waardoor er wanneer het even stil werd in de verte onbezorgde pretpop voorbijdreef en we te weten kwamen dat de muzikanten vertrouwd zijn met de nieuwe single van Pink (doet die versterker dat elke dag misschien?). Gelukkig werd het gekwetter de rest van de tijd ruimschoots overstemd door de meeslepende muziek van de band, die ondanks het gruizige gitaargeweld bij momenten toch voldoende melodie prijsgaf opdat toegewijde fans uit volle borst zouden kunnen meezingen. Zo mogen we het horen, binnenkort hopelijk ook op de radio.

a short translation:

The first part is about YES,( didn’t knew they were performing that same night)

Then the Mp part comes into play….some stuff about the history 20years and so on.

Then the 1st mistake comes into play, their “latest” album LLM is pronounced (think I stood nearby that journo, because there was a dude that was writing things down)

Some good lines about references namedropping and so on and the influences from sixties power pop to stoner rock.

A few lines about the durations of MP songs, most songs go from 11 to more than 20min’s (yea that’s MP 4 U)

Then the author goes into overdrive with exciting pleasure he describes the venue from the bleusy riffs (duno:?), soundscapes and

thriller drones, the highlights he experienced were LLM, YZ and Triggerman.

Then some words ’bout Pink who was singing a few lines,during the quiet parts between the songs…

(the amplifiers picked up the FM band from the nearby FM brussels I pressume?)

Luckily most of the times the Fm radio was killed by the gathering music of Motorpsycho and the singing of the crowd.

Then he ends his short edit by the words…hope MP’s one day get to the radio themselves.

(corrections possible for some1 who like to … erugh correct)

would like to share, but couldn’t find a tracker. Only a member since yesterday evening.

[Vortex155]

Nice interview, grooy stuff, MP sold 10000 without much promo from the mayors, so this means that their fan-base is on a very much die hard kind of thing.

Way to Go and keep the stuff coming for another 20Y

[Vortex155]

will look into this, it’ still a long winter to come

[Vortex155]

what is motortrades?

Dime refusses my mp3 recording have tried that already.

[Vortex155]

I’m so sad now, I give up an all my efforts, costed me loads of spare time, had never loaded a torrent, had figured it out and then one guy/girl? @ dime says it doesn’t compel to their so said “high standards”…never has listened to my recording.

Btw my guess is also that dime was warned ’bout the 2nd load…no kidding half hour after upload my torrent was banned already.

I sent my recordings to ffbernie he has filmed the entire gig and…myself I don’t gonna do anything anymore.

[Vortex155]

I actually find them quit good. Can I use some of these for my ordinary 256Kbs MP3 recording for use on my Ipod.

Hadn’t had the change to shoot pictures, due to the recording , I only got pictures from the empty stage and psychonauts in the orangerie :oops:

[Vortex155]

sorry guys I set my upload to max (300kbs) it can’t get higher than that

have to go in one hour so be patiented

[Vortex155]

They’re superhuman or something…most bands would have cancelled the show with such issues…they don’t let their fans down

thx for the report

[Vortex155]

only one problem I got to go to work in few hours so my pc is shut down…again availble round midnight
