mixing rock and electrons...
i got to see telefon tel aviv play at knitting factory while touring
fareneheitfairenough and i was absolutely blown the fck away. i loved the
album and was amazed at how they pulled it off live, perfectly. all these
amazing looping guitar, and all the bass was played live! too bad their
last album was the biggest piece of poo-poo these two ears ever sat
through... oi.
and of course, mum! seeing them tour their last album, summer-whatever,
really made me appreciate it more... as all those weird sounds you think are
synthetic in nature and mostly real. yeah, there's a laptop and some
synths, but there are also people playing little bells, whistles, melodicas,
ancient gramaphone-violins,... they are amazing live. there was one point
where the whole band slowly started picking up bells until six people were
just ringing these wonderfully tuned little childrens bells. i love them
so.
i finally got a bunch of midrange by Dykehouse... not crazy about all of it,
but very impressive and mostly super fantastic. just like everyone says...
totally shoegazer, dude!
anyone head that Capitol K/Happy Happy? i love all his stuff so much, but
am worried from what i've heard...
