Currywürst #4 @ Batofar - Paris 14/09/12

After a nice birthday party on the Seine's quays, we went aimlessly to the Batofar, a Parisian nightclub on a barge. I was pleasantly surprised to see, a few minutes before, that it was a minimal night (and what more, with a German name, Currywürst being a culinary specialty). Full of hope I discovered an empty club at midnight (the night had already started 2 hours before). But nontheless the night turned out interesting

Axelle Roch and Fred De Clerc: We arrived at the beginning of their set together. These two frenchies had some very good songs to share, and in this relaxed atmosphere with only a dozen spectators it all felt very cosy and trippy. However, there was a big problem. I don't tend to spit on performances, but their transitions were horrible, out of sync... every single one of them. Now I don't know if its due to a lack of work, a lack of talent or maybe they had never met before (highly unlikely since they formed the Fox Parisian Crew together), but between these magnificent tracks, my heart would skip a beat (not in a "love" way") as they were looking awkwardly at each other.
Fortunately they were soon replaced with the king of the night
Sasch BBC: A real German, born in electronic music. His show was awesome and I really recommend you listen to his work (also his transitions were amazing). With this artist came a crowd and the night had finally begun. Great night, great music, great club (partying under water level is pleasantly unusual), all this for 10 miserable euros.
