Causa Sui is a magnificient danish band with some really talented musicians. They started out as a quartet and put out two great records as so. They made an astonishing performance at last years Roadburn Fest and this year they are gonna play Duna Jam. They then skipped the singer and went on as a trio.Last night was the first time for them to appear in a new form - and it was to be kind of a surprise. This gig was to be held at Daemonens Port, a small underground venue located in the basement of a company building out at fucking Amager. Fucking cool place with absolutely no restrictions in any way - but also without a toilet! A big bar, cheap beers, cool atmosphere and a great stage with draped red carpets around. Way to go! Musically this was a surprise. I had been told that they were gonna have sax and keyboards added - and they also har a percussionist. The first long set was almost pure impro jazz-rock and they really showed of their admiration for Miles Davis. The sax was really cool and blended in fine with the rest of the band. Keyboards were mainly spaced out synth and Jonas Munk made a lot of strange guitar effects with a laptop on stage.
Second set was more Causa Sui as we know them. Blistering heavy psychedelic rock, but still with sax, synth and percussion. Wow, what a great, great performance from this band - and to experience this at a place like Daemonens Port with mayby 60 people present. After that we went to the shitty Jaguaren and got kicked out when they closed
