all people interested in experimental use and hacking of turntables are invited to join this event. after a tour through the history of turntablism and plunderphonics - with use of audio-samples - several methods of deriving non-rhythmic music out of common records played with a standard dj-setup are presented. hidden sounds, errors, cuts and dust play an important role in this approach to understand and play records as interface of a stand-alone instrument. another motivation of the 'off-beat'-session is the demystification and a new definition of the dj's role in modern and temporary musical practise. read more or visit http://mattinger.firstfloor.org/offbeat/index.htm for details. http://mattinger.firstfloor.org/wolf.htm has details on Wolfgang Fuchs
