Licktronica 28th July 2003



i did a night in manchester for a long while with my mate rob and i fancied making an archive of all the flyers and some info about each one before i forget it all completely. The first one i ever did was nice i think me and rob bailey dj'd for the first bit of it and Duncan who works in vinyl exchange in manchester played some brilliant tracks too.

not totally sure what we all played but rob always played some CCO stuff and i was liking Apparat and some stuff clone in amsterdam were putting out at that time Dexter ZWAM The Other People Place : Sorrow and a Cup of Joe. also Ascii Disko : Schanze, Pepe Bradock : 4 came out around that time. Metro : Brownstone Express and Alexander Robotnik : Dance Boy Dance, i also really liked Mouse On Mars : Cache Coeur Naif EP.

if you know any of these tunes then you will get the general idea of how we started up playing nice electronic music that we thought would work well in bars. i'm not really sure who played at this 'Lick' because we had very minimal flyers... the flyers get better as rob got more confident with working his designs into the limitations of 'marc the printers' we got all our flyers done there. .
