misterdale Posted April 28, 2005 Report Share Posted April 28, 2005 The Triptych festival got off to a great start last night at The Lemon Tree, with excellent performances from Gruff Rhys and Roots Manuva. The fun continues tonight with Tes-The Warriors, details here , and until Sunday, with performances from The Fall, Uncle John and Whitelock, Akufen, Hot chip amongst others.

betamax Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 So was Kano better than Roots?I thought soBut both quite different Kano kinda was more full on London style electro hip hop....really fucking edgy/hyper apart from the next single which seemed a bit shit (last single wasnt that amazing either but in the live situation it was much better).....some brilliant beats and electronix (seemingly completely randomised and mixed on the fly by a turntable genius) with three incredible front men ...really got the crowd wound up and moving > kinda sense Kano will eclipse Roots likewhich to me seemed a bit tough on Roots Manuva, who was way more mellow obviously, and kinda the energy generated by Kano tailed off, still feckin brilliant like, played with a full band, and again way more mental than his studio stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
