DIGITAL IS DEAD, 3rd Night

About

Digital is Dead's closing event will be huge. 12K, Kompakt and Miasmah maestro Simon Scott will kick the night off with his incredible below sea level~ performance; delicate fenland sound recordings embedded in platinum guitar tones, heralded by Fluid Radio and The Milk Factory alike. Liverpool sensations Ex-Easter Island Head bring their raucous, mallet guitar (fr)antics to Oxford Modern Art for a specially written new work. As ‘delicate as weing needles', but brutally machinistic too. Pitchfork, The Wire and The Quietus are all fans; file under ‘about to explode'. Finally, closing three incredible days of contemporary music, Berlin's Oval (Mille Plateaux) will unfurl his joyous, multicoloured glitches less than two years after a triumphant emergence from almost a decade of silence. Playing from his utterly beguiling 70-track release O, this is an insanely rare opportunity to see one of the greatest musicians of the last century play a solo show on UK soil. Absolutely unmissable.
