Word on the street is that Hexstatic(UK) blew minds with their visual and sound performance at the Friday night Ninja Tunes show with Amon Tobin. If you missed it then don't despair, but instead head to Revolver Upstairs on Saturday 20 December, where they will headlining in the frontroom.
Stuart Warren Hill and Robin Brunson are the duo known as Hexstatix, who together have been breaking club-goers into rapturous smiles and fits of dance since '95, by taking the VJ phenomenon to new levels and consistently breaking new ground in visual and audio entertainment.
Hexstatix released the UK's first completely audio visual album entitled 'Rewind' in August 2000, featuring synchronised videos with every track as well as tools for remixing the videos. The pair collaborated with Coldcut and Greenpeace for the Natural Rhythms Trilogy, which included the award winning 'Timber'. Video clips with their sounds, mainly sampled from nature films, were chopped, overlaid and edited into rhythmic loops to form an intensely synchronised audiovisual piece, which has dumbfounded those who have seen it. Their Solid Steel mixed album was released earlier this year.
Catch a second session of Hexstatic live alongside local visual artists Aton Skene and Emile Zile and the delightful DJ Viva L'Amour at Revolver. Entry is $10 before midnight. The action starts from 10pm. Have a peek at Hexstatic's website to learn more about the duo!
