Andy Seaver, aka NDCV was cerebral and chill, sort of a more accessible Scientific American. Very mood-specific.
Local band Lucy Bland is an odd choice for an electronic music festival. Four out of their five members were all acoustic all the time, and even their keyboardist strapped on an accordion for several numbers. They're like the Postal Service, only sweeter, funkier, more acoustic, and less tongue-in-cheek. They won me over in thirty seconds, and I stuck around for their whole set, unlike any other act that night. I predict great things for them and from them.
Portland duo Camino Acid reminded me of an evil cyborg Sky Cries Mary. I didn't loathe them, but I wasn't feeling them, and neither were many other people. Hint: do not talk amongst yourselves during your set.
Headliner novaTRON, one live guy with an incredible array of non-laptop hardware, and turntablist WD4D brought hip-hop flavored danceability back. I remember enjoying novaTRON more at OSeaO a few months ago, but that might have been because I was tired - I just slept nine hours.
Got the bulk of my groove on to the techie house of DJ Skyler and Michito (if I heard that correctly), who switched off all night. This was my Secret Vice music.
I think I easily got my $12 worth. By the way, LoFi had a lot of art on the walls that I wanted to take home.
Maybe, just maybe, I'll make it to the free show in Volunteer Park with m'boy.
