Pack Lightly For The Escape

Red Fire Escape, 20th Street, San Francisco, 2008

Hola.

Halloween is around the corner, Turkey day is right after that, and then "Long Live the Mall" season is upon us. And then you need to reflect back on the year and put whatever temporary wrist stamp on for the time being, while the permanent tattoo will probably only be seen at a later time. ThumbPrint.



Ricardo Villalobos & Luciano - You Wanna Start? - it's strange to see two of techno's progressive artists revert to a sample from the gloved one himself as the main focal point of a song, but i guess it works on the dance floor...in europe ?

Hauschka - Rode Null - from the new release, Ferndorf. I guess he will be making an appearance in the Bay Area in late November to pluck a few piano strings, literally.

Bonobo - If You Stayed Over featuring Fink - a proposition. if you choose to stay over, pack a bag, and i'll drive you over to your "meeting" tomorrow morning.

Lykke Li - Let It Fall (link removed at the request of the promoter) - the new pop queen. quirky, odd and full of treats. Miss Li is playing at the Independent on Saturday, November 1. The show is sold out, so good luck trying to get tickets. Her full length, Youth Novels, is one of the best releases of the new, i meant almost distant, year. Bring glowsticks and throw them on stage during the show. She loves that.
