via Wordless Music:

After many months of planning, Wordless Music is deliriously proud to announce details of Warp20 NYC, the second and only U.S. installment in a series of worldwide events taking place this year in Paris, Tokyo, London, and Sheffield.

Warp20 NYC will be a four-day celebration of the music, films, and 20th anniversary of the the peerless UK label Warp Records, without which there would surely have never been a Wordless Music series.

On September 3–6, in venues across New York City, Warp artists Battles, Flying Lotus, Chris Clark, !!!, Prefuse 73, Pivot, and Hudson Mohawke will headline shows in two different venues, while The New Museum offers free and continuous screenings of full-length features, documentaries, music videos, and shorts from several dozen directors hailing from around the globe.

thanks Warp!

20 years of trusting your musical selections and buying albums and you give us your artists of the past two years. not saying they are bad but seriously? no BOC? No Squarepusher? NO TWIN!? but maybe we can buy your book and watch videos we know everyframe of? where is the incentive if you have seen Alarm Will Sound before?

but seriously..i love you. sign me?
