‘A STRANGE HOUR IN BUDAPEST’ – LODZ SCREENING @ SOUNDEDIT FESTIVAL
RECOIL AT SOUNDEDIT 12 – MORE DETAILS
 
A reminder that, as part of the Soundedit 12 weekend, the Polish screening event for ‘A STRANGE HOUR IN BUDAPEST‘ will take place on Sunday October 28th. The live concert film will be presented in Lódź at Kino Baltyk. These screenings accompany Recoil’s Blu-ray release of the full concert film, directed by Attila Herkó. 
 
So far the Recoil cinema premieres have proved outstandingly successful, with great crowd turn-outs and positive reactions everywhere. 
 
 
As usual, Alan Wilder will be in attendance to host a Talk & Q&A session about the ‘Selected Events’ tour and film project. There will be an Afterparty with Daniel Myer DJ-ing, and for sale at the cinema, we have a very limited amount of deluxe tour editions of the Blu-ray up for grabs!  These are unnumbered but otherwise virtually identical to the editions which completely sold out within the first few days of the pre-order back in June. In addition they can all be individually signed by Alan. See www.store.recoil.co.uk for full product details.

Owned by the Helios cinema group, Kino Baltyk has been around since 1927 and combines tradition with latest technology. During the communist period in Poland it underwent a massive expansion in line with many of the state-owned Adria cinemas, which left it with its huge main screen and comfortable seating for 700. Baltyk features state-of-the-art Dolby Digital surround sound and it also boasts one of the few curved screens in Poland, making it ideal for the perfect presentation of widescreen features. The Recoil presentation will feature the 5.1 audio mix.
 
Being such a large cinema, there are still some tickets left for the film presentation - however we expect the last ones to get snapped up during the festival. If you want to be sure of yours, order now here .
 
 
Established in 2009, the annual Soundedit festival is “an attempt to honour those who stand behind the tedious process of creating a song or a whole album – and to develop educational activity in the field of music and recording techniques.” With its main highlight ’The Man with the Golden Ear’ award, previous recipients & guests of the festival include: Daniel Lanois, Flood, Daniel Miller, Peter Hook, Gareth Jones, Adrian Sherwood, Boris Wilsdorf, Gordon Raphael, Neil Hannon, Tackhead, Mad Professor, Tanita Tikaram, Andrzej Smolik & Adam Toczko.

This year at the two main festival venues - Wytwórnia & Toya Studios - workshops and meetings will be hosted by the likes of Haydn Bendall, Youth, Andy Jackson, Maciej Polak, Wojtek Pilichowski, Steve Osborne, Łukasz Kruszewski and others. Alan Wilder & Paul Kendall will both be attending this year’s festival for the entire weekend. Alan will be presenting the ‘Golden Ear’ award in the evening, while Paul Kendall will also be doing something or other – we are not sure quite what yet!!
As well as various live acts, Eugeniusz Rudnik – founder of the Polish Radio Experimental Studio – will tell the story behind this legendary institution and receive ‘The Man with the Golden Ear’ award. This year’s recipient is Killing Joke’s Martin ’Youth’ Glover who produced, amongst others: The Orb, The Cult & Primal Scream. Tim Simenon and Gavin Friday will also be in attendance as special guests.

This item has now completely sold out and, at this time, will not be re-stocked.  We had intended to produce more but now that the contents of the stick are in the public domain, predictably enough, the inevitable copying and sharing of files via illegal sites has begun. This is what every artist has to contend with these days.  We urge every music fan to stop for a moment and just think each time you share a music file which has not been purchased through official channels.
