10/11/10 - Visualyze 2 @ DUSA, Dundee

The second Visualyze, an Art School night put on by the Duncan of Jordanstone students
, was great fun - even better than last time. There was music from Damaged Electronics, Surgyn, Jam Factory, Slash Dash, Edward Shallow as well as lots of acoustic acts and artwork and films exhibited all night.

17/10/10 - Mungo's HiFi @ Reading Rooms, Dundee

Some footage of our latest gig at the Reading Rooms with Miss D Love and Mungo's HiFi. Really good night!

11/09/10 - N_ilk @ The Botanics, Dundee

The final date of our mini tour of Scotland with Esperi
and Noiserv was at this lovely mini festival set in the grounds of Dundee's botanic gardens. Garry did a great job with some custom visuals for Noiserv's set and his trademark mental abstract suff for Loops Haunt. Keep an eye out for the incredibly subtle change in tempo half way through :D

21/08/10 - Ultrachip @ Forest Cafe, Edinburgh

Ultrachip was the UK's first chipmusic festival and we helped kick off the event with our VJ sets for Sycamore Drive, Samwave, Diamonds & Dynamite and Comptroller. Had a great time, can't wait for the next one!


...

These are some two player Blender 3D visuals we did together (Smash on PS3 joypad, Retchy on tablet and pen) for Diamonds and Dynamite's set, hence our gratitude to whoever it was that recorded and uploaded this video :D

...

And here's some extended footage of Retchy's visuals for Comptroller's awesome set. Check out more videos of the event on Youtube - the Ultrachip channel is a good place to start.

30/07/10 - Glitch @ Reading Rooms, Dundee

Had a great night at the Reading Rooms with the resident Glitch boys the other night
- here's some footage, including some new stuff from Garry's experimental Blender lab, and some dancing Huxleys.

16/07/10 - Esperi @ Slack, Soul Nightclub, Dundee

Retchy did his kite mapping thing with Esperi again last week at the debut of club night Slack at the Soul
Nightclub in Dundee. We had a great night and thoroughly enjoyed the pop video mash ups from Thriftshop XL and DJ set from Hooker Barbie Roadshow. Looking forward to the next one!

02/07/10 - Guerrilla Gallery Launch Party

We put on our own night! In collaboration with DJ Captain Congo and D-AiR (Dundee Artists in Residence), the Guerrilla Gallery launch party brought together local artists with their work for a night of live music from Esperi and Edward Shallow (via Skype from New York! Video below), live drawing with the Tagtool and a couple of overhead projectors, and a bit of VJ-ing from us. We had a great night thanks to all the people who submitted their work and turned up for the fun and games on the night. We'll definitely be doing it again at some point.

...

Here's some edited highlights of the night, and there's also some photos on the GG Facebook page.

03/06/10 - Ed Shallow @ Drouthy Neebors, Dundee

A truly awesome night was had at N_ilk in Drouthy's the other night - it's a rare thing to be able to say that you thoroughly enjoyed all the acts on a bill - Deliberate Crumbs were unexpectedly hilarious, Jo Foster provided the contrast with her lovely, lovely voice, and Garry's visuals worked really well with Ed Shallow's crazy Gameboy tunes, even if we say so ourselves :) Retchy also did his OHP Nick Cave thing which seemed to go down well too. Check 'em oot!

25/04/10
- Esperi @ Dexters, Dundee

The best Esperi gig yet I reckon, they seem to be getting better each time :) Really nice set up at Dexters too, lovely atmosphere and it was nice and dark so the visuals could really shine.
The song in this video is called 'Silo The Fire' and we're possibly going to put a music video together for it soon using the kite. Thanks to Petra for the photos - more on the RetchyvSmash facebook page if you're interested...
