July and August: Nightmares on Wax, Braids, Einar Stray and Listener

A couple of interviews, reviews and what-have-yous up and about. My August highlight was meeting producer/legend/generally happy guy George Evelyn aka NIGHTMARES ON WAX. Interview will be up soon, had to go to Tegel to find him. Just so you know, his new album, Feeling Good, is amazing, you all can enjoy in when it's released September 17th on Warp Records.

appropriately framed: me and Nightmares on Wax

Most recently I did an email interview with spoken word rock band LISTENER, seeing them tonight. Sadly it did not happen in person but we can't have everything.

 Prior to that my album review and interview with Canadian electronic trio-formerly-a-quartet BRAIDS went up.
 And way, way back, I finally finished my interview with Norwegian musician EINAR STRAY. 

Coming up expect an interview with ANNA CALVI, and some dispatches from Berlin Music Week. Which, reminds me, I saw two bands on a boat and three glasses of (free) wine. Thank you major labels for a trip down the Spree! Kent Brockman once said "If you wonder why they name hurricanes after women, then you haven't seen the ladies at the clearance rack" which should be changed to "journalists," name hurricanes after journalists, because you haven't seen THEM at an open bar. 

Just for kicks here's some kitty clocks courtesy of the Tegel Airport gift shop. Diamond eyes baby.
