it’s a lightweight tag team match with Pantha du Prince vs The Sight Below @ echoplex, September 17th

September 1st, 2010

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.
