Liger last week at the Rhiz. I was a huge fan when I first heard his music, but can't say I followed his career very closely since then. But wow, his, or I should rather now say their live show has really improved since I saw Dino years ago at the Shelter with some awful screamo band as his opener: This was intense and lots of fun. They still sound utterly like Xiu Xiu to the point where we found ourselves humming melodies and quoting lines from Xiu Xiu songs during the gig, but that just increased the entertainment value... don't miss that show when he comes back to Vienna.

Arq: S3 Backup for Mac
Similar to Mozy, only Mac-native and with storage on Amazon S3. $29 for the app + running S3 storage/bandwidth fees. Looks good!

EveryDay Looper iPhone app demo: This performance is a little dorky and a lot wonderful.

The Sleigh Bells purposefully push their levels up way too high and fuck you if you've got a problem with that, you old person! The audio here was not recorded live (I just stuck it on a video of their live performance for extra confusion/to provide more interesting visuals than the cover of the demo record). It's really meant to sound like blown out speakers or straight from the mic of a crappy point-and-shoot camera. And I think I love that. More? More!
I'm telling you, the day will come when mainstream music will sound like Mahmoud Awad.

Budapest 2010
Just posting this here for posterity's sake, can't let Facebook be the only place it was documented at. Hackerspace opening, Failotron, Vittula, Sugar, sightseeing, etc. – a perfect weekend getaway. Of all Eastern European cities I've been to, Budapest is my favorite.

Xiu Xiu & Deerhoof cover Joy Division
Donaufestival, Krems, Austria
Okay, this gets me excited: Xiu Xiu and Deerhoof are going to be covering the entire Unknown Pleasures album. As in She's Lost Control. This is going to be epic. Day tickets are EUR 29 and inlcude performances by Panda Bear and Fuck Buttons. @BoySoprano

A live performance on the Yamaha RM1x drum machine/synth/sequencer, which is sitting unused in the @metalab Medienlabor. Haven't figured out a lot yet, I need to go play with it some more. You can, too! (More: electro, breaks,...)

The Hub Vienna
"will bring together social entrepreneurs from every profession, background and culture – united by their imagination and drive to pursue enterprising ideas for a radically better world: innovators and executives, community leaders and policy-makers, investors, activists, students, creatives and many more... passionate people who see and do things differently in a space designed to let them thrive."It might well be unjustified, but I have to admit I'm a little skeptical of the whole sustainability/social entrepreneurship crowd. It seems like there's a lot of events designed to make the participants feel better about themselves at spectacular locations (In the mountains! In the woods! In the city!) and little bootstrapping, hacking and getting stuff done. The Hub London is at least a very cool space though, so I'm sure this can become a valuable part of the Viennese scene.
