Ep 269 - Nes - Live@ Forest Groove 3 - Techno - Starlight Thursdays Episode 269

Starlight Thursdays Episode 269 featuring Nes recorded live at Forest Groove. This was my first time attending the campout. I’ve known one of the organizers for some time. He came to our forest creatures campout year after year and drew a lot of inspiration from it. He and a group of friends decided to do something similar just north of Spokane Washington. I got to connect with a bunch of old friends from the Montana scene and met some new ones. The community was incredibly friendly. Catching Nes play his live electronic sets are always special. He generates sounds with a program he wrote and composes sets on the fly. It’s a unique style and performance worth checking out. -BK Love- Some words from our featured artist Nes. “For this performance Ryan (part organizer of Forest Groove) asked me to play some driving techno - just to see what I could come up with using Beat DJ. It was a super fun set. It was my 4th and last set at Forest Groove 3. I started the set off with a song I co-created with my friends Alejandro and Kirby from Mars College called Electro Croaker which was a fusion of italo disco and industrial. After that the rest of the set was completely improvised. Techno to me is really about repetition and subtle evolution that induces trance states. It’s like a machine/engine running. This set was improvised using Beat DJ - you can download Beat DJ at soniare.net/beatdj” -Nes Croft-
