tomorrow night: Convocation at False Profit HQ

this saturday night at the new false profit hq in potrero, deep dub beats and visuals by a team including spotworks.

it's another nostalgic gig. in 2000 and 2001 i was a regular at the dub-beautiful events, and i look forward to being back. the music is going to be great. it's no coincidence that i recently released a video to one of alex's tracks:

i must admit i'm having trouble writing this email because just a few minutes ago i loaded electric sheep generation 191 into a playback computer and am seeing it complete for the first time. this is 13 gigs of the from the new version, complete without breaks. it's hard for me not to just sit and watch. by this weekend i should have it combined with the 30 gigs from gen 188 and 190. this saturday will be its first public exposure...

anyway, on with the deets:
