BATTLES
Battles is an American rock band that formed in New York City in 2002. The group is composed of drummer John Stanier (formerly of Tomahawk and Helmet), guitarist/keyboardist Ian Williams (formerly of Don Caballero and Storm & Stress), guitarist Dave Konopka (formerly of Lynx), and guitarist/keyboardist/vocalist Tyondai Braxton (son of Avantgarde Jazz musician Anthony Braxton).
Battles released three EPs in 2004, each on a different label (Cold Sweat, Monitor and Dim Mak). Their debut LP, Mirrored, was recorded by Keith Souza and released on 14 May 2007 to widespread critical acclaim, and it generated a fair amount of buzz in indie rock circles. Mirrored videos soon followed.
The album received an pretty high score of 9.1 in a Pitchfork Media review; “Atlas”, meanwhile, was voted “best single of the week” by NME, and received a glowing review in the UK’s Clash Magazine where comparisons were made to Glitter Beat. The band scored its first UK cover feature in May 2007, talking to Plan B Magazine about the making of Mirrored.

FLYING LOTUS
Los Angeles resident Steven Ellison a.k.a. Juno Leed a.k.a. Flying Lotus is a hip-hop producer and beat maker, occasionally linked to artists such as Madlib and fellow LA resident the Gaslamp Killer for his more abstract and sometimes jazz tinted style. Flying Lotus, often abbreviated to FlyLo, is currently signed to Warp Records, although he released his first album, 1983 on Plug Research Records, the label to which he belonged from 2006-2007. His June 2008 release, Los Angeles, with cover art designed by Timothy Saccenti, was released to positive critical reviews. As well as serious album work, remixes and production for artists such as Oddisee and John Robinson, FlyLo is also responsible for many of the musical loops heard during the ‘bumps’ on Adult Swim, as well as being a casual filmmaker.
Being the great-nephew of Alice Coltrane, John Coltrane’s wife, Ellison comes from a musical heritage about which he says: “My greatest influences are my family, I’m lucky to have been around so many accomplished musicians.” When discussing the sources of his imagination and inspiration, he explains that : “I see these tracks as little short films that play in my head… I have this beautiful lemon tree in my backyard, and on a sunny day the light shines through. Little things like that inspire me.”

Didn't catch Nice Nice, Flylo owned it, Stanier is a machine, stayed near the back to avoid the bell ends. Excellent night.

Arsehole female students who push to the front, dance in front of you, gossip loudly, and don't give a fuck about the band shouldn't be allowed in gigs, or out of the house, regardless, amazing sets from Flying and Battles... Nice Nice were abit steady.
