This Saturday, June 13, at the Transcendent Church of Bass is going to be epic. Two of my favorite groups are playing back-to-back, sandwiched between some of the best local talent Seattle can muster. Both Pitch Black and Ott have been in town within the last year, and both played top notch sets.

While I love love love Ott's psychedelic digital dub, I'm really hoping he's got a fresh set for us and not just a replay of the last set we got from him.
