Xenofox @celeste, 3 April

Missed most of the first set but they played two of quite generous lengths. It was kind of as expected, which is very good; the recording does give me more warmth (in a way similar to this record by Able Noise) than the live experience but I think the ability to emotionally connect to music is so much a function of having heard it repeatedly. Anyway quite ecstatic music iirc! I’m still intrigued by crowds of old people listening to this weird-ass music; probably an issue of my biases. They were having funny chats in the break. I think I really like celeste as a place in general…
