As the Flashbulb, Benn Jordan has impressed the masses with live performances composed of melodic breakbeats and synth-fueled glitch tunes, but at this upcoming Sonotheque event, he dons the DJ hat in support of fellow knob twiddler, Machinedrum. Famous for his hip-hop twist on the glitch genre, Machinedrum, compared often to Prefuse 73, has refined his sound, incorporating more vocals and inserting a filtered-disco vibe that pits glitch against electro, making for some interesting concoctions. After a long absence, these two genre veterans are primed to turn up the heat with loads of bass and head-bobbing drum patterns, choppy percussion and jaw-dropping synth loops. (John Alex Colon)
