Hey

We're about to record a new EP but can't decide which songs to put on it. To avoid any more 'heated debates' we've decided to let the good people of the internet decide.

If you've got a spare few minutes, please head over to http://www.naomihateshumans.com - have a listen to the songs and rate them. We promise to stand by the opinions of the interweb. Even if you are wrong.

Thanks

Naomi & The Fucks.

Needleandthread presents... {yet another} dirty great big night out..
19 Oct 2007
the JAMM, 261 brixton road,
London, sw9
UK
Cost:£6/£5, or £4 before nine..
BARGAIN!!

Room One..
Cyan341 - Tonight we are lucky to have Rednetic label boss Mark Streatfield perform his more techno based material - deep, soulful, and groove ridden, but with all the electronic frills we’ve come to expect from him.
eN - atmospheric breaks and harsh edited jungle rhythms with washed out synthetic soundscapes to create bass heavy dancefloor killers.
rANdOMoiDz - Dirty shuffling beats chop and change between techno rhythms and wonky breaks, and are guaranteed to make you move.
Alt*Ctrl djs - these DJs have played alongside the biggest names in electro and know exactly how to rock a dancefloor.
Patscan - combines complex rythyms and sweet melodies with a definite dancefloor focus.
Uncle Smutfist - an utterly unique frenzied but playful sound that dances between distorted dubstep and battered breaks.
between the rooms, we have live performance pieces from The Great Antagonist, and guests..

Room Two..
ZeJ - combining live electronic drums and bass with effervescent synthesis and live gadgetry, provides an experience impossible to ignore.
Red - brixton based multi-vocalist, building his tongue twisting rhythyms into live loops, then turntable-ising the results..
King Porter Stomp - a dub - ska juggernaut of rhyme and funk on a mission to entertain, enliven and enlighten. an unstoppable octet of big horns, fat beats, heavy bass.
Bogus Gasman - anarchic dub-core.. punk-laced reggae.. what they lack in covers, they make up for in brass, fat old basslines, and guitars that go chk chk chk chk..
Bunty - one mouth, one mic, one loop station, one delay pedal.. one hell of a show..
dj’s include Mr Hovis, Dj Dark..
should be a bloody good one!
