Kicked off this show with a Czech cover of Donna Summer's 'I Feel Love'. Followed that with another cover - Rebby Sharp doing 'Hesitation Blues' (preluded by some of her trademark experimentation). Next was Soviet underground new-wave group НИИ Косметики, playful Japanese artist Asao Kikuchi, Latin-inspired countrymen Carioca, and Catalan guitarist Toni Xuclà.
