Radiohead has released a live concert for free download. it’s edited together with video taken from fifty audience members. trailer above, get your download here (be patient, there are throngs of Radiohead fanz trying to download it, and the files are huge.)
you like minimal shoegazing ambient electronica, don’t you? well sure you do! you like spending only twelve bucks per ticket, right? well sure you do! what a coincidence i should bring those points up, because there’s a minimal shoegazing ambient electonica double header at Echoplex on Friday, September 17th, with Pantha du Prince and The Sight Below and cheap as fuck tickets are available here for only twelve bucks. (yes, that’s Noah Lennox from Animal Collective on vocals in the video above.) – also, on a related tip, further hilarious evidence at how impossibly pretentious those Pitchfork kidz are – money quote from the Pantha du Prince write-up that Echoplex included on the event page for Pantha, “Though he lacks the crossover name recognition of producers like the Field, Burial, and Lindstrøm”… you know, because all three of those guys are on my xmas lists.
usually, i’m running FROM my past, not TOWARDS it, Arcade Fire. check out this grim portend of dwindling privacy rights interactive video for The Wilderness Downtown, their new single, which uses Google Maps’ street view to harvest information on incorporate your home town into the video. kind of creepy fun. can’t embed it, so go here to see it in all of its’ Orwellian glory. they’re playing the Shrine Auditorium on Oct 7th and 8th, tix still available here and here.
Control @ Avalon presents Major Lazer with Them Jeans on September 9th. dragons, ballerinas, mohawks, dudes jumping off ladders (literally) onto gurlz that are booty bounc’n, and all to the impeccable spinning of Switch and Diplo. trust me children of Los Angeles, you do NOT want to miss this show. three thumbs up from j.satan. get your tickets here.
Cap’n Jazz had pretty much one album, Analphabetapolothology, but it’s a must listen and i really can’t recommend them more. Saturday go see them at the Echoplex with Abe Vigoda (of course, if there’s an indie band playing Los Angeles then Abe Vigoda is opening) and Black Apples. midwest, repruhzent, whut whut!!! tickets are still available here.
