Speak Onion w/ David B. Applegate, more, at Port d’Or on Fri., Aug 27!

Tuesday, August 3rd, 2010

YES! I’m playing at a rad place with some of my favorite old friends and some awesome new friends. This will be a bonkers night for sure. From the Free Techno of David B. Applegate to the straight weirdness of Bubblegum Octopus and Mysterious House to the true rocking of Xrin Arms, and of course some shattered rhythms from your #1 boss of drum’n'noise, the party will NOT BE STOPPING FOR ANYTHING. You’ve been warned.

Also, look how many Speak Onion shows are happening in the next few weeks. Pretty rad, huh? Between the I.B.N. Presents show at Party Expo where I’ll be doing the battle set, the ExperiMENTAL Fest Noise BBQ, August 26 at Goodbye Blue Monday, and this one, I’m a busy, man. That’s why I’m the boss, I guess. Anyway, I’ll see you out there!

EDIT: Xrin Arms, sadly, won’t be able to make it up to NYC due to some rough times out on tour, so the GBM show is cancelled, and there will be only 4 bands at this show at Port d’Or. Still mad freshness guaranteed, though. Pour one out on the curb for XA, though.

Speak Onion at ExperiMENTAL Fest, This Sunday, Aug. 8. NOISE BBQ!

Friday, July 30th, 2010

I’ll be bringing the drum’n'noise furor to Goodbye Blue Monday this coming weekend for the ExperiMENTAL Fest. It’ll be the Sunday afternoon, Noise BBQ portion of the fest, so that rules. I think I’ll even be playing outside. There’s a lot of other cool acts on the bill as well, including long-time home-girl, Joy Through Noise. New beats and bonks, some sunshine and intense volume. Sounds like a plan, right?

Speak Onion vs. Digit216 BATTLE SET plus more on Sunday, Aug. 15!

Wednesday, July 21st, 2010

 

Note: Venue has been changed to SILENT BARN instead of Party Expo.

Holy hell am I excited about this show. Realicide and DJ Tacopunch are bringing the crazed electronic hardness from out of town, and of course we’ve got local industrial noise genius, Insect Deli, lighting the place up as well. That would be enough to make this show worth attending, but Digit216 and I are doing a BATTLE SET of breaks, noise, and general clusterfuckery to top it all off.

Digit216 and Speak Onion have shared a lot of bills before, and we’ve always enjoyed and respected each other’s music, so we decided to step it up a notch and play together/against each other. Who will be victorious? Everyone who’s there to see NYC’s 2 most devestating breakcore artists collide, that’s who. Don’t sleep on this.

Immigrant Breast Nest presents:
Realicide
DJ Tacopunch
Speak Onion vs. Digit216 (special battle set!)
Insect Deli

Sunday night at The Charleston was like whoa!

Tuesday, March 16th, 2010

Show Report! Things that ruled on Sunday:

Everyone’s sets were killer. Maruosa whipped up so much energy I thought I was going to die in that basement, and I was ok with it. Digit216 and David B. Applegate also were really at the top of their respective games. It was like, “this is exactly the type of show I would want to see if I wasn’t putting it together myself.” Amazing.

Oh yeah, about the Nord, uh, I know I said I wasn’t going to use it, but then at the last minute I got a bigger box and reorganized and rewired and repatched everything. Heh. I was a little shaky on a completley new setup with only 1 day’s practice, but it was all good. Pretty glad with how everything is going with that. I’ll probably expound on it later. . .

So, thanks a million to everyone who showed up and thanks a b-b-b-billion to Maruosa and Miyagi for coming all that way, and thanks to the Charleston for the wet basement and the free pizza. Best.

Oh, and check out all the pics here. I dont’ have any of Digit216 or Maruosa yet, because I fucked up with the camera, but I’ll be some.

This past Saturday’s set videos!

Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

Saturday night at Coco66 was amazing. What an awesome show. Everyone really nailed it, and dang that Coco66 PA is no joke. Thanks to everyone who came out. My first show on the new set-up went really great. I was nervous without my familiar Numark DJ mixer and Echo Park delay, but the Nord G2 really killed it. My favorite quote form the night was when some girl came up to David B. Applegate during my set asking, “WTF is that stuff he’s playing it looks like he’s got nothing up there!!!” That’s right. Just an IKEA Gorm shelf packed with synth-y goodness.

Anyway, here’s videos. The first one is based on “Many Fewer Branches” from Metabolor, and the second one is from an as-yet unreleased remix. More about that soon. Don’t miss my awesome post-set dance moves in part 2. I hope the sound is halfway decent on these, but the PA was sooooo loud and soooo bassy, and my darling WIFE, while videotaping, was sitting on one of the sub-woofers, so the camera’s microphone really couldn’t hang. It sounded awesome in the room. Trust me.

Speak Onion blowing up Brooklyn, Sat. 2/6/10!

Sunday, January 10th, 2010

2-6flyer

I’m returning to my favorite venue in NYC, Coco66, next month for my first show of 2010. And it’s 100% free so you might as well come accept the gift of loud music from me and everyone at Immigrant Breast Nest. I’m really excited about playing with some of NYC’s finest electronic music scientists, Joy Through Noise, Insect Deli, and Naetron. This will be a really epic night of music. I mean, you were going to be out drinking that night anyway, so you might as well do it at this FREE show. I’ll bring the beats, you bring the party.
