Foreign Beggars
10 August 2010, 4:48 am
There was this MC on stage at the end of the last night of Sonar at first he was shouting a bit and I wasn't too keen; then he started bubbling, riding the beats. He was brilliant and I said so to Claire & TomDodd who informed me that he was Pavan from Foreign Beggars (who I'd sort of heard of); and that he'd played their night Plat Du Jour a few times. So I grabbed a couple of photos of him for them which meant luring him to the front of the stage with a couple of come here hand gestures; ...

Ce Jour La

Whilst I am largely a candid photographer of the same school of thought as Ronis (I guess) I still have a desire to make portraits yet still haven't gotten over my dislike / fear (whatever it is) of approaching strangers and asking for photos as for example Oleg Tolstoy (thanks to Foreign Beggars for linkin...

AND OF COURSE once you tap he swims right to the surface, cuter than a freaking beagle eating a cupcake. Like I said, super old, in fact his age is unknown. If he could talk, he wou...

Prehistoric Oval Fossil

Prehistoric Oval Fossil. Approximately 6,000,000,000 years old I found this many years when I was prospecting for gold in riverbed just outside of Girdwood. I couldn't believe that it was just sitting there because there were several people in the area and none of them seemed to notice it at all. Even though I have no formal geological training I know that something is old when I see it and this object is certainly old. I had originally placed it in the backyard but the darn thing kept attrac...

T-Rex Taqueria had just opened. Maybe they didn't have their act together. My burrito took a while to make and somehow the hot sauce was left out. The wrap was a little messy and ingredient distribution was poor. And they only had black beans. While waiting I did enjoy the decor: an eclectic mixture of fossil logos and vintage photos of professional wrestlers. If I were in the area I'd go back, maybe even regularly. But T-Rex is no destination....

Pass through the membrane. Be the membrane. There never was a membrane. You're back at a Grateful Dead show.

Under Eternity Blue - Soul Funk

The twelfth installment of the Under Eternity Blue radio program hits the Internet airwaves this weekend on Spirit Plants Radio with two show times: Saturday, July 30 at 11pm EST, and Sunday, July 31 at 11am EST. It's been a scorcher of a summer so far, and nothing reflects the heat quite as nicely as Soul Funk - that pocked genre of music from the late 60s to very early 70s that was born out of James Brown and had an unmistakable imprint of the dawning of everything we know...

GRATEFUL DEADSaturday, May 25, 1974Campus Stadium, UC Santa Barbara -- Goleta, CAAudience & Soundboard Recordings Judged across the entire 30 year span of Grateful Dead music, 1973 and 1974 possess tremendous similarities. However, when viewed in detail they reveal stark differences at many levels. The explorative playing style in 1974 has an aggressive and intentional bent. The band was pushing in ‘74, whereas in 1973 things seemed more about open discovery. By 1974 the dis...

GRATEFUL DEAD Monday, March 9, 1981 Madison Square Garden - New York, NY Audience Recording The maturation process for a Deadhead tape collector is a very interesting thing indeed. Whether it's in the way one slowly develops an ear to "hear" a year from just a few seconds of a song, or gains the ability to call a tune long before it starts based off of random between-song noodling happening on stage; with more listening comes the perception of subtleties and nuances which can elude other l...

Spirit Plants Radio asked DJs to give this week's show some level of a seasonal theme. During the busy holiday season, this episode opts to explore the solitude and peace that may be found on a late night walk in Winter. The show attempts to paint a musical landscape to acc...
The Music Never Stopped
26 November 2010, 7:30 am
We as Deadhead's are typically a musically sophisticated bunch. Most of us are hard wired to enjoy music deeply, and often our tastes expand far and wide. As I've mentioned here from time to time, the Dead only fill about 10% of my musical universe on a daily or weekly basis; often far less than even that. In many years of pushing my musical horizons, I have always looked for resources in the sphere of "all music" that can do for me what I try to do here in the Grateful Dead sphere - take my ha...

In their own words: "The 30 DAYS OF DEAD celebration honors the spirit of camaraderie exemplified by the tapers who diligently documented the Dead’s concerts and trade them freely with other Dead Heads. Encouraged by the band, this practice of sharing helped foster not only a legion of devoted fans, but also created a unique sense of community that has transcen...

Given the subtle underpinnings of what actually makes Grateful Dead music worth honoring—that often being much more than the songs on a Grateful Dead record—the thought of a tribute album often struggles to appear as anything more than novelty. This is not the case with Bluegrass legend Jesse McReynolds’ Songs of the Grateful Dead: A Tribute to Jerry Garcia & Robert Hunter. Released earlier this week, here t...
Dead Symphony No. 6 Comes Alive
25 September 2010, 8:03 am
Road trip to Georgia, anyone? Something good's sure to go down when the LaGrange Symphony Orchestra performs on October 5th, 2010. The iconic Deadhead adage of "we are everywhere" never seemed more true than when I first heard about Lee Johnson's Dead Symphony No. 6. The Grateful Dead's infusion into the world of classical music was something of a Deadhead community triumph, yet I really didn't know what to expect from this fusion, and I'll admit that I leaned pretty heavily on the skeptic side...

notes on sigue sigue sputnik and the boardroom fetish
7 March 2012, 6:00 am
As part of the post-hack clean up, I found a few drafts of things I’ve not been able to finish – here is the first… comment welcome! Some musings on Sigue Sigue Sputnik and their hyper-glamorised capitalism. A wilfully optimistic reading of Mclaren’s “Rock N Roll Swindle” was that punk aimed to make ”cash from chaos” as a fall back [...]...

Hollertronix 10: The Partysquad – ‘Murderer (Diplo & JAYOU Remix)’ + more JAYOU Remixes

R.I.P. Hollertronix series, that club staple borne in Philly by Diplo and Low B that, in its lifetime, has seen the pair rise from small time basement collaborators and underground party hustlers to major label players and arena rockers. It helped introduced the world to Bmore and Balie Funk music and let DJs know it [...]...
Audio Bullys: ‘Kiss The Sky’
17 December 2009, 10:02 am
London’s Audio Bullys never fail! This tune is massive in the playlist. I love the Bullys because they always have A-game production and good, catchy, songwriting with signature delivery. They can do it all! The new heat is ‘Kiss The Sky’, a big room electro house stomper—and def. a mad reapeater since the Audio Bullys [...]...

Lil Wayne: ‘Drop The World (feat. Eminem)’ & ‘Get A Life’ from ‘Rebirth’ album. Remixes from Flying Lotus & Stenchman
17 December 2009, 12:48 am
New Orleans’ MC champion Lil Wayne has an infectious one with Detroit underground-com-pop-raper Eminem on ‘Drop The World’. Eminem’s frequent pop-parody raps have made him more pop-than-pop like a US Weekly magazine—but still, the man’s got talent and now-and-then pulls off something really special that reminds me why I used to excuse myself on going [...]...

On it, Lupe pulls some ol’ Ice Cube shit jackin’-for-beats move. But the new twist is that the contemporary MC, Lupe sources beats from the likes of Radiohead, instead of sticking [...]...
My Cat Drinks Tap Water
6 December 2009, 12:16 am
My Cat Drinks Tap Water are a noisy lot of young men from Queensland, Australia.

My Cat Drinks Tap Water, or MCDTW—for usability purposes—have captured a sound similar to [...]...
Kite In The Air: ‘Magic Marker’

Kite In The Air is collaboration between [...]...

Aphex Twin vs. Chevy One – Dublicker

We’re down for this white-label. There’s charm in the no-name, no-label no-BS tracks; they’re perfectly content to exist in obscurity: no flashiness, no waving of banners. It’s just a track to find and appreciate on it’s own merit. Well here’s one, which I, admittedly, gave a listen to because it’s obviously a dubstep remix (because [...]...

Wise Blood
8 November 2010, 4:07 pm
Little is known about Wise Blood, except that his name is Christopher Laufman, and the few short, hazy lo-fi pop tunes he's been posting online this year have earned him a lot of attention. His songs are blurry collages based around samples with his own faded, soulful vocals riding on top. In a "Rising" article, he told Pitchfork, "I want to sign a big contract and take over pop music...I think it could [work out]. Pretty confident." Expect big things in the future. He just released a new song,...
