'State-X'-Festival - 'Korzo Theatre' Den Haag, May 5th 2001.

'State-X'-festival.
Saturday May 5th 2001, 'Korzo' Theatre The Hague.
Note: this was the first edition of this Festival, few years before it merged with the ‘New Forms’ Festival. Organised by a.o. a former classmate, I joined in withy the fun to make recordings of ‘The Ex’ and ‘Feverdream’. Learnt a lot about hardware to be taken with me next time.

The Ex (Amsterdam/Wormer).
Tracks: Burnsome/Fistfull Of Feed/The Chair Needs Paint/Town Of Stone/Haydays/Oskar Beck/Submarines/Karaoke Blackout/Time Flies/River/Spruitjes/Stupid Competitions/Lump Sum Insomnia.
Note: due to a faulty cable from the PA, the recording is made in anti-phasis, which means that one signal is minus to the other. When played MONO, the soundboard-signal will vanish, leaving just the venue-sound, which is hollow. This was only discovered AFTER broadcasting.

Incense (Delft/Den Haag/Rotterdam).
Tracks: The whole set consisted of 38 minutes of improvisation in 3 parts.
Notes: as the organisation wasn't fully prepared for me making recordings, the necessary Soundboard-output wasn't available, leaving just two mikes in the back of the small hall available for recording. As the improvised pieces proved interesting, though not quite suitable for broadcasting-purposes, nothing will be done with them anyway, so no harm done. One small bit of the performance is missing though, due to the inevitable tape-change.
