Immigrant Breast Nest brings you an official bootleg from Digit216 and Speak Onion’s epic BATTLE SET from Silent Barn last weekend. Here is the sound of two giants locked in combat, leveling everything in their path. New York City’s most imposing purveyors of angry electronic mayhem met in pitched battle to determine who truly has the most dangerous beats in town. Digit216, the crowned king of cybergrind calamity, launched a barrage of mega-ton kicks and a seemingly infinite arsenal of bulletproof breaks. Speak Onion, the #1 boss of drum’n’noise, let loose a plague of toxic chemical synths and flesh-eating effects. After 5 rounds of chaos, the only clear winner was the crowd of on-lookers, left with gaping jaws and shattered eardrums.
Fortunately, a pristine recording from the mixing board has been uncovered, so the historic Battle At Silent Barn can take its place in history. Immigrant Breast Nest will bring this event to light so the world can hear the dangers of armed electronic conflict and the horrors of breakcore war. Hopefully society can learn from the past and such carnage will never repeat itself. Actually, scratch that, this shit crushes. Once you get this in your head, you’ll want it to happen again on a sound system near you.
Sorry to flip the script at the last minute, but Sunday’s show has been moved to Silent Barn instead of Party Expo. Speak Onion vs. Digit216 battle set was deemed too dangerous for a “party” space, and we had to move the show for insurace reasons. There will still be plenty of pounding beats, and full on bass bL00r, but just in a different place. Silent Barn is, of course, well suited to handle the mayhem.
Realicide and DJ Tacopunch are bringing the crazed electronic hardness from out of town, and of course we’ve got local industrial noise genius, Insect Deli, lighting the place up as well. That would be enough to make this show worth attending, but Digit216 and Speak Onion are doing a BATTLE SET of breaks, noise, and general clusterfuckery to top it all off.

Big show alert! Get ready to party all damn night with some of the wildest, weirdest music, including two of I.B.N.’s heaviest hitters, Speak Onion and David B. Applegate. Aside from all the drum’n'noise and Free Techno you can get, there’s also Bubblegum Octopus and Mysterious House taking it over the top with weirdness. You get it all with this party.
Don’t miss it!
Derek Tibs (CEO, Immigrant Breast Nest)
Edit: Xrin Arms, sadly, won’t be able to make it up to NYC due to some rough times out on tour, so there will be only 4 bands at this show at Port d’Or. Still mad freshness guaranteed, though. Pour one out on the curb for XA, though.
Your boy, Speak Onion, is fixing to drop some science next Sunday at the ExperiMENTAL Fest. It’ll be Noise BBQ becoming Breakcore Potluck and Industrial Picnic. You know the #1 Boss of Drum’n”Noise is going to provide hot fire to keep this scorcher of a summer going. With tons of great acts on the bill , including long-time home-girl, Joy Through Noise, there’s no question of good times to be had. Who’s bringing watermelon?
Note: The venue is now changed to SILENT BARN at 915 Wyckoff. Sorry for the late notice!

In a freak turn of events which leaves us both dizzy and pleased, Immigrant Breast Nest’s Speak Onion and David B. Applegate will be joining NO Shoulders and Coin Star for a no-holds-barred bash-out on Wednesday, June 30th at The Charleston. You’ll want to super-glue your wig to your noggin to keep it from getting irreparably flipped. We’ll see you there.
Speak Onion will be playing an extra special and intimate (wink, wink) set on the rooftop of Eton Trading in Greenpoint on Friday, and it’s 100% FREE! It’s part of From The Gut’s Saturation NYC event, a night of transformed space, art, sculpture, and sound. There’s more info at the Saturation facebook event listing, and the details are below.
Friday, June 18, 2010; I’ll play at probaly 10PM or so.
Eton Trading
238 Franklin Street (at Freeman), Greenpoint, NY
You really don’t want to miss this event. Look at this view from a generic Greenpoint rooftop! This is how rad it might look while Speak Onion is dropping abstract synth noises. Hell yeah!
The brilliant Solipsistic Nation podcast has featured Speak Onion in their recent show about people who use iphones/ipads/ipods to make electronic music. This show features various artists who use Apple’s mobile hardware in different ways to make all kinds of electronic music. The last 10 minutes or so of the show are devoted to our boy, Speak Onion, including an interview and his live set from last January, Speak Onion at Brecht Forum, January 19, 2009. Listen to Solipsistic Nation No. 193 right here.
Those of you know who’ve seen SO’s ruinous live styles may know that all those beats and loops are coming from an iphone running Beatmaker. They may get ripped apart afterwards, but that’s where they start. So go grab the new episode of Solipsistic Nation, and subscribe to their podcast while you’re there, because there’s plenty of new and awesome electronic music coming out of there every week.
Inconclusive Whale Autopsy doesn’t have patience for pussyfooting around. The mission is gut, get, grab, and bail. The results are often messy, and that’s ultimately for the best. Quick bursts of energy from the left field of another dimension leave you bewildered and covered in incredibly wet ambergris. By the time you realize you’ve been drenched, Inconclusive Whale Autopsy has already moved on to fuck up more brains.
Immigrant Breast Nest is honored to present Inconclusive Whale Autopsy’s self-titled debut release. Trying to describe this record could have us inventing words all day and night, but these eight tracks only take seven minutes to drive the point home with no room for doubt. This is as weird and brutal as it gets. Inconclusive Whale Autopsy will rearrange your insides without a map.
Clairaudient has been hard at work lately developing strange new frontiers in choreography and motion-controlled soundscapes. The deranged dance/noise duo performed in March at Chelsea Piers as part of a benefit for Haiti Relief, and in case you missed it, the video is below:
This piece, “Underneath It All, I’m Just A Skeleton” is a preview of what you can expect at Clairaudient’s upcoming appearance at the Alternative Arts Association Dance Showcase. Clairuadient will be busting moves and blowing speakers along with plenty of NYC’s other most cutting=edge choreographers. Come check it out!
