here's a bit about our guests...
COPY
Portland, Oregons Marius Libman, otherwise known as Copy, busts
through the gates with a fully developed and essential sound on his debut LP,
Mobius Beard. Combining dense harmonies, delivered in an 8- bit baroque
electro style somewhere between Yellow Magic Orchestra and Ratatat,
with snap-tight digital beats reminiscent of Dabrye, Copy has created an
emotionally affecting sound that doesnt neglect the dance floor. On
Mobius Beard, fuzzy bass synths ride syncopated drum patterns,
jump-cutting into ambient spaces and cresting in victorious melodic themes. The
result is a crossover work of electronic pop that will appeal to both
hardcore sound boys / IDM nerds and the casual listening masses.
TRUCKASAURAS
is Ryan Trudell ,Adam Swan, and Tyler Swan of fourthCity legends
Foscil. in this guise, they are pull out their Gameboys and Midi
patching them together with real time use of vintage gear like TB303s, Roland
beat boxes and analogue synths to create a fun stew of electro and
melodicaly squelchy tones and dance rythms. Complimenting their unique
sound is a video montage of WWF wrestling loops depicting not- so- subtle
homo-erotic imagry overlaid with Monster Truck footage. Extremely
entertaining and hillarious; but don't be fooled by their humor--these boys
have a knack for intricate detail and nuance that one would not expect
from such a playfull demonstration.
ATOLE
When Atole (Manny Reyes) performs, he doesn't just sing. He transports
a room with a thin stream of falsetto, boom-box noise installations and
Spanish folk singalongs. OSCILLATE plays host to the recent Portland
transplant's weirdsmobile infusions of IDM, Latino heartache and
childlike psychedelia when Reyes unveils his latest release, a three-track
"emo-electronic instrumental" EP documenting the Haitian civil war called
Trust Napoleon, You Uppity Slaves , tonight. "I'm like a lounge
performer from the future," the Las Vegas native told WW . "That sounds totally
terrible, but it's true." Just a tip: Reyes also often performs in the
middle of the crowd with his eyes closed.
KINOKO
mixing an affinity for electro beats and 8 bit audio sounds; our local
hero brings a playfull sound to the techno massive. Her sound is a
heady stew of beat heavy tones and gear heavy sampling with an ear for
manic breaks and intricate sound programming
