SUMMARY:Panchiko
LOCATION:PROJECT HOUSE
DESCRIPTION:On July 21st\, 2016\, a user on 4chan’s /mu/ board posted a p
 hoto of a mysterious CD they’d found at a record store in Nottingham\, U
 K: a rough-worn demo titled D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L\, purportedly released in 
 2000 by four musicians: Owain\, Andy\, Shaun\, and John. The listener uplo
 aded the ripped audio—the recordings sounded like they were plagued with
  disc rot—to file-sharing sites\, and later YouTube\, where they began c
 irculating among internet music circles. The record’s sensationalist app
 eal was multifold. Was this an honest-to-God ’90s curio? A prank hatched
  by internet-savvy teens? An internet experiment in nostalgia\, in the spi
 rit of vapourwave? Nobody knew. So the Panchiko hive mobilised\, gathering
  on subreddits and discord servers\, examining every square inch of the pa
 ckaging for potential clues\, and even calling the Nottingham record store
  where D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L had allegedly sprung up in the first place.\n\n
 “I woke up one day\,” recounts Owain\, “and ping—there’s a messa
 ge on a defunct Facebook page of mine\, ‘Hello\, you’ll probably never
  read this\, but are you the lead singer of Panchiko?’” The query took
  Owain by shock\; to his and Andy’s knowledge\, D>E>A>T>H>M>E>T>A>L> had
  never been uploaded to the internet. The Panchiko fandom finally made con
 tact the following day\, when they received their reply from Owain\, a sim
 ple “Yeah.” At last\, the world had confirmation: not only were Panchi
 ko not 14-year-old kids\, they were the real deal\, right down to the disk
  rot.\n\nPanchiko are about to embark on their fourth sold out tour of the
 atres across the USA\, and have now amassed hundreds of millions of stream
 s.\n\nBoletos: https://dice.fm/event/mx59lw-panchiko-15th-oct-project-hous
