AMBASSADOR21 @ Sick & Twisted (Garage), London/UK, 13.05.2005

If you like Digital Hardcore or industrial techno, breakcore, mixed with evil noize, you’ve got to try the Sick & Twisted parties. They’re run once a month, and if you want to sweat your ass off, don’t even hesitate, just go and experience it by yourself. Last month Alexey and Natasha aka Ambassasor 21 from Belarussia ended up their 2.5 months UK tour doing this show. It was another reason not to miss them.It’s always a big surprise to see them live because this male/female duo really blows up everything: your mind, your ears, your lack of knowledge in belarussian (so you could understand more about the lyrics)… Anyhow, the blast started, we got immediately snatched by their wall of sound, their samples and beats hammered our brains, getting deeper and deeper inside us. I am still wondering how two people can make such a powerful music, what’s their secret? Alexey was triggering his gear while Natasha was giving us a snarl of fury, then he was back with her screaming his guts off for our pleasure and theirs. Ever wanted to know what pure rage could sound like? Well I’ve found my answer, they’ve had it! And if you can cope with harder sound than Atari Teenage Riot, go and raise your fist with these digital punks!!!
