So fickle.
Black Strobe - if you're reading this, you too! I'm sure all the goth kids hanging around the malls of Pleasanton and Hayward would totally dig it.

so, I figured they'd be DJing w/maybe a sampler or something, but they were a full on BAND!!! three butch french goths all in cut-off black tees (arnaud's was plain, gtr/bass/keys guy's was sisters of mercy, drummer's was . . . . dandy warhols?!) stomping around, plundering the back catalogue. the drummer was keerazy - had this huge kit that he'd metronomically thrash/recreate everything on while managing to um "mix" between the different tracks - they didn't let up once! arnaud would prowl up & down the stage & terrorise the crowd, & I finally um "got" their vocals - "me & madonna" = excellent live, was nice to hear "bright shining star" for the first time; & me & my friend went absolutely apeshit to "the abwehr disco". came across as such a metal band! no Ivan, sadly. & the DJ before them played a great remix of "all I ever wanted"! didn't get to ask her who'd done it, though.

I'd read that he'd just remixed "Shining Bright Star", but yeah I wanna hear this RIGHT THE FUCK NOW

Any thoughts on Arnaud's new one? Sounds pretty good to me, especially the slower tracks.

black strobe : goth electro. hit and miss.
arnaud rebotini : fucking brilliant analogue electronica. 'the first 13 minutes of love' is the best thing that tangerine dream never made in 1979.

black strobe had a good few hits imo. their essential mix was really great: https://soundcloud.com/ash-bradshaw/blackstrobe-essential-mix-28

is that arnaud a new record?
Arnaud's album for a couple of years ago was pretty great iirc, it was like a goth Delia and Gavin.

LG : this is the album that features the track i mentioned, and the one that Matt is on about :

far better than the black strobe stuff.

For some reason at the time, Black Strobe made me feel like an EBM revival was just around the corner.. there were those Ivan Smagghe mixes around the same time as well that kind of hinted at it. The ~dark~ side of electro-house

arnaud has been playing with his machines while in lockdown and posting the results (and some excellent remixes) on his soundcloud.
'digital lockdown' is very classic era cabs.
