Well, I didn't really enjoy that one. True, clubs are not my natural territory, so this might not be a big surprise. The only reason I came was that I really like Dusty Kid's music. Really like it. And here I was disappointed to my surprise.

We came when Chaim was playing minimal funky stuff for 20 ppl, slowly the floor filled up, but Chaim's set really didn't flow and built the floor as it should have been doing. He jumped suddenly to more jumpy stuff at one point, as if he suddenly woke up and realized that he's in a club on the DJ booth with 100 ppl dancing in front of him. There was no flow it his set, even ignoring the few fuck ups with the broken tracks (maybe equipment problems). In the last half hour of his set suddenly everything just fell into place, and just became a tight long track developing flawlessly and rocking the floor. Heard good things about the guy, so maybe he just had a bad night. Happens.

Before I get to Dusty Kid, a few words about the club. The sound is quite horrible. Unless you are in the middle of the dancefloor, something difficult to do, as things are very very crowded there, you really suffer. And even there, there's no justice done to the music. Everything just vibrates and cracks in the club, there's way too much bass and horrible distortion everywhere. And as usual in Israeli clubs, they seem to think that A LOT of volume means good sound. I heard worse, but to bring such high class artists & DJs with so powerful music sound-wise to play on a system like this is just plain dumb. The club also really stinks- I had black stuff coming out of my nose the next day. I'm used to that after a party in the desert with all the dust. But clubs don't have dust, not even with Dusty Kid playing, which means this was all cigarette smoke. Pretty frightening. Our cloths stank so much when we got home, unbelievable. A little ventilation please!

Now for the main course. Dusty Kid's music can be divided to two directions roughly. One is the rougher more hardcore technoish stuff- tracks like The Riot or The Kitten, f.e. The other is the deeper and more psychedelic stuff- tracks like Psika (of course), the remix to The Droids or Kore, f.e. I connect more to the second direction, but most of his stuff, regardless of direction is just great, he's very melodic in a very sick way, and write truly twisted music. His set @ Barzilay was basically all built up from the first direction (I left a little before he finished, so maybe things changed in the end). It was flicker music, euphoric build & break music, and the melodies were mostly lost. And honestly, coupled with the horrible distortions, it was like listening to Skazi minus guitars and rock star pose in 130bpms. Not fun for me.

I guess I'll wait till spring now, and hopefully someone will have the balls to bring the Kid to a really Dusty venue outdoors, and give him a hint to go a bit more psychedelic. I would be very happy then.           ---------------------------------------------
