Michael Caine isn't at SXSW, but AddictiveTV were last night, sandwiched between acoustic guitar phenom Kaki King and a DJ set by chrome domed mixmaster Moby at Stubb's. (Speaking of sandwiches, I'm typing this between bites of my first bar-b-cue of the week, from Iron Works, hard by the convention center - not bad, could use a little more sauce - while flannel shirted singer songwriter David Dondero sings his acoustic ode to lunch in New Orleans, "Stay Away From My Po Boy, Boy.")
But I digress. I brought up Caine and AddictiveTV because the the DJ duo from London specialize in a mix of breakbeat techno, that's cut, spliced and synchronized perfectly with visuals from Caine's super cool flicks Get Carter and The Italian Job. It has to be seen to be experienced, and I haven't s yet found any web clips that capture it. But trust me, it's wildly entertaining stuff, whether the duo (who completely upstaged Moby) are pulling from Caine in his younger coolly murderous days, mashing up Elvis Presley with The Streets. The AddictiveTV MySpace page is here.
