Amsterdam Jam

While researching concerts for Amsterdam Jam I found that I was spending a lot of time on many different web sites trying to discover hot new bands to post on the site. One weekend I hacked together an app to automate the process for me. I put this app online for friends to use and now many years later decided it was time to open it up to the world.

Gigawatt.fm is a local concert discovery app that allows you to see listings of concerts in cities anywhere in the world and to listen to music by the artists.

These three guys from Berlin fuse minimal classical music (think Steve Reich) with techno (think early Plastikman) and Jazz. The make all the music on traditional instruments which they then sample and process into mesmerizing rhythms. Live on stage they appear very Krafwerkian in their suits as they reconstruct it all live.

They are playing Sunday May 8′th in the Paradiso.
