I ended up having more fun at the smaller festival Mutek<\/a> because of the intimacy of the events. We were only there for the last two days of the festival. Saturday night we headed over to Metropolis for an amazing line up. I was excited to see Chloe live but for me the best act of the night was a debut dubby set by Code 9 and Space Ape. This normally isn’t even the kind of music I like but there was something really transcendent about their performance. After their set ended DJ Olive said “Wow that was like Sun Ra!”<\/p>\n

The real highlight of the weekend was the outdoor Picnic Electronique<\/a> with Mathias Kaden & Onur \u00c3\u2013zur djing together. We danced all day in the foggy wet light rain. No one seemed to be phased by the crappy weather because the music and the vibe was so unbelievably good. In their totally creative set Mathias Kaden & Onur \u00c3\u2013zur mixed strings and horns into techno tracks. Plus they were super cute to watch as they picked records to play and danced together.<\/p>\n

\nWe arrived at Metropolis right when the night started, the empty dance floor filled up soon thereafter. Photo by Seze<\/p>\n


\nThe visuals were gorgeous and totally different for each act. Photo by Seze<\/p>\n


\nBunker Bryan with Philip Sherburne<\/a>, one of my favorite music writers and a super nice person as well. Genevieve & Matt (Portland Techno Promoters Kulture Szene<\/a>) and Derek are behind them.

\nHow lucky we are! We danced under a Calder sculpture all day in the rain.
