No Fun Fest 2009

Witnessing three straight days of generally harsh and uncompromising electronic experimentation can be an extremely exhausting experience, but Carlos Giffoni put together an impressive and varied line-up that covered everything from spacey psychedelia to sociopathic power electronics. He even somehow managed to land Sonic Youth. It was still gruelling, of course, but I suppose that seems like a fair price for experiencing some undeniably unique and memorable performances. (I am conspicuously opting not to make an obvious joke about it being no fun )
