fingathing Utrecht
Went to see Fingathing play live in Utrecht.
Two guys from Manchester (UK), one playing double bass (electric) and the other with a deck and drum machine.
We were treated to a "4th dimensional" rendition of their last album, with tracks, Head to head, Grand Central and a complete mashup of 'slop'.
Doublebass player Sneaky (Simon Houghton) played an entrancing version of 'You fly me'.. but he did mention the weed a few times, so i guess a good time was had by the band. Scratch DJ Peter Parker (Dan Baxter) slammed out some great scratches, cutting it up without mercy, with close up cameras on the decks, displaying the action overhead.
Backing up the music was VJ Chris Drury, with his characterful 'gorillaz-esque' art work of the band and their misfit friends.
It really was a gig quite out of this world, quite experimental, but warm and friendly.
Mew album out now on 'Grand Central'
