Reverberated Hand Claps = Neck Jiggle
Left Whistle, 2009
-Apple Tablet ? Who cares, where’s my iPhoneWatch ?
-Can’t wait to see The Brothers Bloom, from Rian Johnson, the writer and director of the Brick, the excellent portrayal of a dystopian society ruled by teenagers.
-I hate hipsters. They pervade every inch of the Mission district where I live and it’s starting to look like the Marina district, but instead of Polos and BMW’s, it’s mopeds, Ray Bans and Docksiders. This style, or lack of style comes from kids going to goodwill and buying whatever seems different at the time (see Texas style shirt) and then once it catches on, all the desginers get a hold of it, and then mass market it to kids searching for an indentity. Please stop the madness.

This is the week of shows, and here’s a sampling…..
Flight Of The Conchords – Too Many Dicks – From the second season, and one of the dance tunes that was written by one of the funniest and musically talented duos out there right now.
Animal Collective – Summertime Clothes - Off of one the most rewarding albums of the year, Merriweather Post Pavilion. If the Beatles, circa Sgt Pepper, joined forces with the Beach Boys, of the Pet Sounds era, you would get a little glimpse of what Animal Collective has been preaching for years. And one of my favorite songs…Fireworks.
Nalepa – Monday - Black Moth Super Rainbow is one of the other shows I will be going to this week, but I thought this crusty, static-tinged bubble would work better especially if it was played in the forest, or at the California Academy of Sciences. I think the song could get everything to move, including some of the people.
Wighnomy Brothers – Metawuffmischfelge – This mix is provided by the Square Productions blog, which has produced Speaking in Code, a documentary about the secret language of electronic music, mainly techno which has the power to communicate with everyone. I can’t wait to see it. The Wighnomy Brothers will be playing the 4 year anniversary of Kontrol, and from their incredibly syncopated productions and live sets, I have waited a long time for them to come to San Francisco. Pele Bloss – a 2005 classic from Wighnomy Brothers.
