VIGSY’S CLUB TIP: Carbon presents Paradox & Alaska at The Volks
The Club Tip tends to be London-centric, I know that, and I do try to occasionally look further afield. Though I’m not sure “London by the sea” really counts, but this is definitely worth tipping. The Volks, just down the beach from Brighton’s famous pier, has had a new sound system installed, and this night should put it to proper use. Paradox, aka Dev Pandya, aka Alaska, has been touring for nearly two decades and has racked up 163 live PAs all over the world. He’s a top notch performer who I have witnessed twice – not only does he hybridise breakbeat and drum & bass, but he is an infectious showman, raving and ranting to the crowd about the samples he feeds into his trusty battered Amiga while truly blurring the line between beats and breaks. He really is not to be missed. And tonight he’ll be showcasing his new album ‘Isolationist’, and maybe even throwing a few free copies into the crowd. Support comes from Instra:Mental, Insight, Voytek, and Escher.
Friday 13 Mar, The Volks, 3 The Colonnade, Brighton, 11pm-5am, £6, more info from www.myspace.com/carbon_dnb
