Absolute Body Control is one of those early 80′s acts that many may not be aware of, but you will know the members, Dirk Iven and Eric Van Wonterghem (who joined in 1981 to replace Mark de Jonghe on synths), from the various projects they have had their long reaching hands in (together and/or separate); The Klinik, Insekt, Monolith, Dive, Blok 57 & Sonar.

FRIDAY, MAY 14TH
We popped into the venue having gotten a free pass on soundcheck since, well, we did it on Thursday. ALICEFFEKT was already on stage and it was already an auspicious start to the day’s music—4 people on stage, with 2 twiddling on laptops, a woman playing cello, and a dude with the best Asian guy mullet I’ve ever seen on guitar. It’s the sign of a good fest that even the opening bands kick some butt, and the small but enthusiastic crowd really enjoyed them. (more…)
