Terminatryx
(and
special
guests)
played
an ambient,
goth-inclined
live
soundtrack
to the
silent
vampire
film
Nosferatu
in the
dust
of the
new
Bushveld
Stage
at Oppi
Koppi.
What
more
do you
need
to know,
music
lovers
–
the
very
fact
that
this
happened
shows
how
far
the
festival
has
progressed,
and
the
fact
that
it was
as good
as it
was
–
and
held
the
interest
of the
Koppi
faithful
while
they
could
have
been
watching
Foto
Na Dans
and
Teba
–
proves
that
if musicians
have
talent,
skill
and
vision,
and
stick
to their
artistic
guns,
then
the
audience
*will*
find
them. I have only one small quibble – Terminatryx needs an uplighter under drummer Sean Ou Tim, who has black hair and was wearing a high-collared, almost polo-neck black top. Imagine the face of the beat floating above the band as Murnau’s vampire-parasite creation creeps around on the screens to either side… PS: If y’all missed this, check out the DVD release that Terminatryx did with their soundtrack (recorded live at the HorrorFest film festival screening) over the silent film. - Evan Milton |
