Oh I should have known you'd like Reassemblage. You're the guy who blew my mind with his DJ set. I'm super jealous. It's one of my top five releases of the year so far. Another GREAT one is Jlin's Black Origami, though it's great in a completely different and much more jarring way. HAVE FUN! |

Yeah. Got to exchange a few words with her too. She was amazing. Even threw in an After Dinner track at the end. I was talking with the guy who rereleased some of her stuff(Detector Records). He had some pretty cool stories. |

She was here for a little fest last Thursday. Couldn't make it though.... |
wtf? Bill Callahan is playing somewhere nearby in August in a wonderful open air theatre. But the support act is a COMEDIAN ??
I'm not paying 35 euros for a blablabla dude who I've never heard of :( |

A few years back I saw Leon Redbone. His contract stated that no musical act was to open for him. So the promoter took full advantage of the loophole and had a magician open for him. Redbone was reportedly pleased, saying a magician was the perfect opening act for him. And while I'm not really that into magicians, the guy was great. Back to the topic: I have a choice this Thursday between Warpaint and The Joy Formidable. Nothing at all against Warpaint but I'm going to see The Joy Formidable. |
just seen Sarah Davachi last night. fucking amazing.

Fucking Kraftwerk on Monday. My god am I excited by it.

Nils Frahm has announced his coming tour schedule, all in the first four months of the next year! Many dates in the Europes and the US, so take a look at his site and go book your tickets!! http://www.nilsfrahm.com/concerts/
Can't recommend this guy highly enough, his live shows are so amazing. Last time I had my eyes closed during the complete show (except when he was talking in between songs), with my ears aimed towards the speaker stack. You should seriously try that out some time. People will think you're insane, but it's very cool. Music should be heard with the ears not the eyes and especially not the mouth. |

I dig what you're saying here man. I'd do the same at a Nils Frahm show. I've never seen him. Maybe I'll look into whether or not he's coming to my area. |
I've been asked if I want to see these guys in August. Seems like a weird bill to me. I think I'd like to go in theory — for nostalgic reasons — but in practice, I think I'd end up being bored and wishing I was elsewhere. Would you guys be into this? |
Saw Echo and the Bunnymen in Liverpool a few years back. It was the single worst gig I've ever been to. How can they fuck up The Killing Moon? A song they've been playing for nigh on 30 years?!
I dunno, I probably caught them on an extremely bad night. But to mess up in your home town is pretty shocking. I'm just glad I got in for free |

Thank you. I will not be going to Femmes/Echo. Would have gone primarily for Echo, but not now. I love the Femmes' first few albums, but now they just seem like sad perennial adolescents to me. They've been around for 30+ years and never changed up their sound at all. |
Aw yeah, Dan Deacon is coming to my city again. That guy puts on a hell of a show.

I've pretty much stopped paying attention to Dan Deacon's studio material, but you're right that he's damn good live. I'd make it to a show if I had the opportunity, for sure. |

Ooh! Pharmakon! And Boris just put out a new album. Haven't heard it yet but will. Cheers. Have fun. |
