Night & Day

Our lovely sisters and brothers EIIE have made an amazing video for their debut track "Night & Day" off the Ecstasy compilation. Ryann Bosetti and Judah Switzer take us into a world of banji angel realness... enjoy :)

E2E LIVE

OP+MC: 12" Release, A Children's Story

There was this great party the other day.

There was dancing.

There was a delicious (vegan) cake.

There were hella trippy people.

There was realness.

They were (contemporary) dancing in the streets.

In the end, I got a free whiskey for playing a few records, met my new favorite DJ (and he's already in my band!), I got to yell through an unintelligible vocoder, took 2 packs of "Emergen-C" (not a euphemism), and throughly made up for a mostly shitty week. You can't ask for much more, man!

Let's do that again.

UPDATE! New pictures from Jared!

REMIX!

Generally speaking, Rafael and I prefer to have nothing to do with fur because, let's face it, animals are really cute when they are ALIVE. but when Bryce Isbell sent us 'clears throat' a new song of his under the Fur moniker.. we just couldn't resist. REMIX! (in my rapper voice)

Rites Of Spring

Hey, everybody, we're very pleased to announce two of our artist/contributors to E-Blog, have a spring offering for you.

OPERATIVE "Pulse"

"Pulse" is our homage to the square wave and to its self-modulation, implying steady rhythm but also variation by its very structure. Binaural high-hats beat out a martial time while analog circuits bubble out into a thick, stroboscopic sunset. If our song "Ramp" is James Tenney trying to meet Joey Beltram half-way, then maybe "Pulse" is Steve Reich "Music for 18 Musicians" slouching towards Orbital's "Halcyon & On & On".

MIRACLES CLUB "Light Of Love"

"The ecstasy laser sweeps down on Friday night, you and your crew. This is dream house, a sound not unlike what triumphed in mid-Eighties Chicago, but with a shimmering, psychedelic sound world. "Light of Love" is the beauty of the road and the wide-open plane, the feeling you're all alone on the dance floor and that you own the night. Awhirl in a collage of piano, conga, acid-touched bass, and "a-la a-la-la-la-la" you find yourself echoing waaaaaay past the dawn."
