12.15 Black Lung (David Thrussell) – the etheric plasma manifested in “musical” form
David Thrussell is a poet trapped in the body of a hillbilly. Or a hopeless romantic hidden in the twisted frame of a dark electronic musician. Late at night Thrussell fantasizes that actually he lives next door to Hieronymous Bosch in Medieval Europe and has hallucinated the whole dreadful modern era while suffering from acute ergot poisoning. We are not entirely convinced that this is not the case.

1.15 Bubble & Squeak – live tech-house-electronica
For the first time ever in over a decade of playing live electronic music, Australian duo Bubble & Squeak (Ehsan Gelsi and Evan Sparks) return to their home-town of Castlemaine bringing with them a sound that is at the forefront of Australian electronica. Smashing genres since before mash-ups were invented, Bubble & Squeak was forged in the underground techno parties of Melbourne and honed in residencies across Europe. Having built a name for their record label Smash Bang Records and for their solo works in past years, 2011 sees B&S reunited with an arsenal of fresh sounds drawing on a decade of experience working a dancefloor. Bubble & Squeak are proud to present the 2011 Edition – Deep enough to swim in, hot enough to fry an egg.
