So Stoked: Enter The Matrix: 20th Anniversary Screening + Rave! Trance, D+B, Psytrance, Techno, Hardcore, House, Bass! Twenty years ago this month: THE MATRIX! The apotheosis of cyberpunk action movies. Stoic yet wordy, a movie about alienation, conformity, revolution and raging against the machine. A movie that name-drops the Monsters of Postmodern Philosophy in pince-nez shades and leather catsuits. A movie directed by two trans women whose catch-phrases have been co-opted by MRAs, incels and racists - not since Fight Club has any movie been so misinterpreted.

Having drawn comparisons in the past to indie superstars the likes of Mumford & Sons, The Decemberists, and Fleet Foxes, their VA project harvested a more dynamic, and anthemic sound from the soil of their folk roots.
