We are now into the second weekend of May and . . . fuck yeah.
Things are awesome.

It's those raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens.
Although I still don't quite understand what any of that has to do with black copper kettles. That line always confuses me.

Indigo Blues Hour: Boogie Bone, KC Brass & Electric, Big Al Carter

Portland is fortunate in the respect that it is loaded not only with musical talent in general but has a fantastic blues scene as well. The artists played on Saturday's show were diverse in their styles but still embodied the same tone and feel that the blues is known for.

Disease Free with Spike from Spike and Mike's Sick And Twisted Festival of Animation

That's right, on this episode, I've resorted to Craig's List for a new cohost and remarkably.....not too bad! (minus the newly contracted headlice, and the fact that the cohost inappropriately touched my leg several times)
Also SPIKE from SPIKE AND MIKE'S SICK AND TWISTED ANIMATION FESTIVAL is on the show!
Plus, Greg's Travel tips for Socially Inept People and a very enlightening and creepy call from town historian, Finneus Springs.....Springs At Large.

The Donut Hole

Hello.

I made a mix of experimental/noise/ambient/downtempo/atmospheric-pop

I call it The Donut Hole.

I can't find the tracklisting (I made this about a month ago), but if you want info on a specific song, I will happily figure it out for you.
I know there is some Spyweirdos, EBN, Ott, Kixotek, Mogwai and Joy Wants Eternity on it.

Good for background music, sleepless nights, doing homework or if experiencing one of the Holes.

Enjoy!

Dream Temples of Electric Vishnus.

There is an album coming out sometime this year, probably end of, and it is really spot on.
The energy within and the atmosphere it welcomes is a rich amalgamation of subtlety, definition and tonic mind-scapes.

This isn't going into the review section because I am not reviewing it right now.
I just want to remind you all to stay open and accepting of the sonic rushes this spring and summer.
Some of these moments of clarity are going to come at a time you are not expecting and some of these albums are going to make you react differently than you planned.

This is good.

Hotel Cafe Artists on Short Memory

Last week, I interviewed William Fitzsimmons and Jesca Hoop, two amazing artists who are currently traveling with the Hotel Cafe Tour. Check out these interviews on the archive, well worth your time. And the music's good, too. Real good. Went to the show last night, and both of them played solid sets. They had one backup band, all incredible musicians, and each artist took turns playing 3-4 songs, with a varying lineup of backup musicians and vocalists. Most artists were on twice, and there was the occiasional song with everyone on stage, of course.
