Del Bel - Überfall [excerpt]

Full review to follow. Wavelength's creative musical spirit went head-to-head with Images' characteristic push past the limits of the movie screen at this night with three bands tackling scores to classic experimental films. Trotz's expressionist short, filled with symbolism-laden camera tricks, was nicely mirrored by the spooky undertones of Del Bel's music here. But there was also a funky propulsion at play, as if Chic had been sent off to spend a night in a darkened gothic castle.
