Kraut und Owt Bank Holiday Special
At the end of the week (Sunday the 3rd of June) it's another Kraut und Owt at The Gaslamp but this time it's a bank holiday special! Thankfully there will be no Union Jack bunting, Diamond Jubilee cupcakes or any mention of the Queen... however there is an outside chance that Prince Charles will pop in for a special Krautrock and Musique Concrète set (see video)! No our bank holiday will be all about Krautrock, Electronic Music, Minimal Wave and Oddities supplied by St. Neon, Bethan K & Andy Memery (the K&O dream team).

Kraut und Owt Part 7
Kraut und Owt Part 7 is this coming Thursday and should be a good one as it's a bank holiday the day after... no excuses for not coming down then! As always get on down to The Gaslamp between 9pm - 1am for your monthly fix of Krautrock, library soundtracks, minimal wave, outsider pop, electronic music and oddities. Plus this month, for one month only, we're giving away an amazing prize to one lucky person - a £5 off voucher for a Betamax video player at Rumbelows superstores. Get on down early as we'll be picking out a ticket from the tombola around 9:30PM... don't be late or you could miss out!

Future Retro
Where did this come from? King Britt reinvents himself as some kind of retro futurist producing a great EP for hyperdub that fuses John Carpenter, the odder Shuggie Otis tracks and early Autechre. Space Dimension Controller, Symmetry and now King Britt... is everyone making soundtracks for imaginary films? If Ridley Scott does do Blade Runner II then he's got a wealth of artists to choose from to do the score!
A little bit of the aforementioned Shuggie Otis:
Thankfully King Britt et al have kept me occupied whilst Anti-Christ has been on TV... without this retro futurism I could not have made it to the end of the film! Apparently surfing the net is the modern equivalent of putting your hands over your eyes when it gets scary. Every time it looked like there was going to be some disturbing scenes I quickly grabbed the laptop! Lars von Trier's films are getting weirder and weirder (if that were possible!) soon he'll be making films as disturbing as the one below:

Kraut und Owt Part 3
KuO # 3:
Early Warning - Kraut und Owt Part 3 will be taking place on the 3rd of November 2011 at The Gaslamp. It'll be more of the same i.e. Krautrock, Minimal Wave, Electronic Music, Oddities and owt... and the outside chance of free hotdogs - German style! More information soon!!!
Non Kraut und Owt:
Highlight of Electric Elephant 2011 was undoubtedly James Pants on the main stage where he played everything from the Chordettes "Mr Sandman" to the original version of Love Buzz by Shocking Blue. It wasn't just a DJ set it was moon walking, drum machining, cymbal smashing musical evangelisim of the highest order!!! Of course the visuals behind him were brilliant too... provided by us! He recently did a set at The Boiler Room which was a restrained version of what he did in Croatia but still unmissable - watch it below:

Kraut und Scooter!
Kraut und Owt is coming soon!!!
For those of you out there who are a little rusty when it comes to Krautrock check out this documentary the BBC made (part 1 0f 6):
I've been out voted so they'll be no Scooter at Kraut und Owt! Apparently Scooter isn't Krautrock or even owt! Never mind we'll just have to play Can, Neu, Kraftwerk and owt (pretty much anything that we like that isn't Krautrock) instead.

And for those Scooter fans out there, who might be a little disappointed, here's a video just for you featuring some of the best lyrics ever - "It's not a bird, it's not a plane, it must be dave who's on the train". Yep they are that good!! Also they stated in another song that "Siberia is the place to be!" Really?! Didn't know that but if Scooter say so then it surely must be!
I don't know what it is but the MC guy from Scooter reminds me of an older version of Matt Donovan who I went to school with! Only relevant to those of you who know what Matt Donovan looks like!!!

Kraut und Owt - Coming Soon!
Today it's 17 degrees and raining in Manchester which is really depressing... but not to worry as the Broken Biscuit Club crew is in Croatia! We're doing projections at the Electric Elephant festival and have nothing to do apart from sizzling in the 38 degree heat!!! As it's the hottest part of the day we've decamped to a local cafe to sip on a cold drink and post a few videos related to our new project - Kraut und Owt. It's going to be a night featuring the best in Kraut, electronic, minimal wave and cosmic sounds from Europe and beyond! Here's a few videos to illustrate what we'll be playing.
Do vidjenja!
