Sleepdancer by Kixotek

Out of the Pacific Northwest comes a new psy producer with a free album available for download. It does not fit into any convenient genre categories,

Think of a rainy month of an Oregon spring with sunny days intermixed and bright blooming flowers catching your glances. Then a thunder cloud and a rainbow shout down from above. Think of Rip Van Hippy meets Aphex Twin. Boards of Canada meets Nam Shub of Enki. But not really any of that. Or maybe all of it.

If you are the sort that likes/needs album reviews, you can read up on Sleepdancer at KPSU blog.

Yogi Bogey Box's First Party

On the first saturday of October, a virgin promoter launched a first party that was as good as I, and therefore everyone, could hope for.

The vibe was ecstatically happy. Maybe it was due to all the Israelis in good holiday cheer dancing with wild abandon?

St.Neff’s clever UV artwork contributed to the overall feel of it. As they say of a good party in NYC, “that was like being at Synthetic Sadhus!” There was even face-painting on the outdoor patio.

Cheers to the organizers for having their heart in the right place.
