The For Real Issue

This is a photo of Manic Street Preachers guitarist Richey Edwards, taken in 1991, right after he’d carved the words ‘4 Real’ into his

forearm with a razor. He did this because a journalist questioned his band’s authenticity. This was his answer. Some answer, right? Why are we showing you this photo? Because we feel that questioning a band’s authenticity, is something that might be done a little more often these days. Not necessarily cause we want artists to slash up there forearms, but because, as music enthusiasts, we are always looking for some sort

of intrinsic value to the music that we enjoy. What are we listening to, and why are listening to it? Important questions in an era where success and failure are defined by a couple of random mouse clicks.

4 Real or not 4 Real, yo? That’s the question. or, what actually is 4 Real? Maybe that’s the question. anyways, let us be 4 Real 4 a change. let’s not try to be witty or smart in these few opening lines but simply tell it like it is: we feel that the true motivation to make music is shifting from person-al emotion to fleeting and ironic comments on society and media. Now-adays, music (in our part of the spectrum) is about adding up music and style quotes from all eras, sometimes resulting in music of philosophical brilliance but often evoking spineless mud. But hey, spineless mud is real too... and nice to roll around in. uhm...

Mo Koloursmokolours.bandcamp.com

If you’re experiencing summer withdrawal symptoms, Mo kolours will restore the pink in your cheeks and the spring in your step with his dubby grooves and sega beats hailing from the crossroads of Mauri-tius and South london. Think a bit of Madlib, gonjasufi and Sun araw, y’know. This music is best experienced in a warm climate, hence ad-equate listening conditions can be recreated by blowing hot air down your T-shirt with a hairdryer whilst sipping a sweaty glass of rum and coke. Be sure to check out Mo kolours’ EP1: Drum Talking and EP2: Banana Wine on one-handed Music before the final part of his eP trilogy drops.

Boyfriendwww.soundcloud.com/boyfriend

Declared the rising star of the tropical bass scene by the Internet, Boyfriend lives in the not-so-tropical city of vilnius, lithuania. Drop-ping the beats on Zebra katz’s Winter Titty eP, including the mad dirty track ‘W8WTF’, Boyfriend is one to keep an eye on right now as he spins lethal webs of deep, throbbing rhythm that might send a mini earthquake through your flat. You might have thought getting a Rus-sian wife online might be what you’d like to do when you’re 50, but we are so getting a lithuanian boyfriend right now.

East India Youthwww.soundcloud.com/east-india-youth

The music of self-declared sound architect/sound gardener William Doyle, the young Londoner behind East India Youth, is quite simply pretty fucking ace. It pulsates with a startling rawness and glitch that makes you sweat profusely like you’re in one of those clichéd/legend-ary ’90s techno clubs somewhere in Detroit, sloshing vodka on your trainers and burning people with your cigarette, having a whale of an inebriated time. Check out Doyle’s album Total Strife Forever (‘Hinter-land’ is a killer track). I don’t care if you’re at work right now and your boss is a total a-hole, turn this shit up to the max and bust out your best moves.

Pressed Andpressedand.virb.com

Cruising through Technicolor deserts in their Mario Kart cars, Andrew Hamlet and Mat Jones of Pressed And have just released a little gem of an EP called Hyper Thistle on Mush Records. Recorded somewhere between Brooklyn and North Carolina, from its very beginning this re-lease resonates with a beaming electronic vibrancy that flutters be-tween meditative guitar hums and surges of abstract vocals. This is one musical labyrinth I would happily get lost in for ever. Check them out before they get all mainstream and boooo-ring.

Cabaret Scenecabaretscene.bandcamp.com

Remember our good old crazy ukulele-strumming bros Flamingods from South london? Well, one of their band members, Charles Prest, has a great side project called Cabaret Scene, which is buzzing with ecstatically sunny drum beats, scratchy guitar riffs, tribal chants and tropical loveliness. It’s like skinny-dipping at sunset in a pool filled with deliciously cold mango pineapple lychee pomegranate orange drag-onfruit smoothie and not having a care in the world. get a load of his latest album Porcelain Swimmers, which is totally free, and start spreading the love.

Pop Windspopwinds.bandcamp.com

experimental psych-pop trio from Montreal Pop Winds have appar-ently parted ways very recently, which is why I am writing this blurb to make them reunite and play some gigs in europe so I can toss my bra at them with a big ‘Whooo!’ Their most recent album, Earth to Friend released on arbutus Records, is drenched in reverb, hypnot-ic rhythms and stellar synth tones. I imagine this was the soundtrack Neil armstrong listened to when he walked on the Moon. keep your ears pricked for these guys’ new solo projects and in the meantime go through their amazing back catalogue.

No one really says they’re in the music business for the girls. But if we were to be really honest: are you?

Yes, totally. Girls inspire not only my music, but also my life and my pursuits. Girls are simply beauti-ful; my mother, my sister and all the

women I know. They really bring out certain nice qualities in me that men definitely don’t.Why do you do what you do, make what you make?

To tell you the truth, I really don’t feel like working a nine-to-five job

DucktailsFor his forthcoming album Matt Mondanile, aka Ducktails, left his typical woozy bedroom psychedelia and used ‘real mics and drums and stuff ’. We talked about Woody Allen, death (of

course), the new album being way more grand in ambition and a less ironic band name.

‘I really hate pretension in music, so I thought, Oh, if I call my band something cheesy then no

one will think I’m trying to pull a wig over their head.’

for a boss. I don’t think of myself as an amazing musician, or even a mu-sician, but I would like to do this for ever. My dream would be to be just like Woody Allen and make stuff at an insane tempo. He makes movies because he’s afraid of death. His films are also about that. Funnily enough he never really dies this way. I love his specific style. I hope to establish such a specific style with my records and music videos.How would you describe your style?

It’s fucked up. It has changed a lot. Now it’s like this weird mixture of stuff that I can’t really put into words. I used to do more drone solo impro-viser pedal stuff. Then I got more into songs and started writing sketches of songs. Now I have full-blown record-ed songs that have bass lines and gui-tars and keyboards and all of this stuff. Even back-up vocals. Sadly I can’t do that live in Europe because it’s too ex-pensive to fly a band over. It is so real, it can’t be flown over to your conti-nent!But will you keep death at a distance

with these new songs?I hope so. I would like to keep it

as far away as possible.What about irony?

My band name is super ironic. It’s a different spelling of a Disney car-toon. I really hate pretension in mu-sic, so I thought, Oh, if I call my band something cheesy then no one will think I’m trying to pull a wig over their head. Sometimes I feel I want to be taken more seriously, but then I re-alise: Oh my God, I named my band the stupidest thing ever. I just have to live with that. I guess that keeps me young also. And at a distance from death.What do you think of your own mu-sic? Would you give it a 7.4 as Pitch-fork did?

No way, I’d give it a 10.0! I’m get-ting 10s in my head. Inside my head is all that matters. Pitchfork is just a flat-screen website. Not even HD.You said you want to be taken more seriously sometimes. Do you get fooled a lot?

I used to get picked on a lot. I

think it’s because I’ve always been a self-conscious, cautious little nerd. My good looks freaked out the bul-lies in school or they just didn’t like my face. It didn’t really fill in yet and so I looked fucked-up and crazy at a young age. I don’t know, but it was tough. My dad even made me take boxing lessons in Paterson, NJ, which is a ghetto. I boxed there twice a week. Finally as a freshman in highschool I proved myself and beat up the bully. It was classic highschool fight mov-ie style. With a happy ending. No one picked on me after that. Now the fooling around is just innocent fun.Did you know Woody Allen was actu-ally really good at baseball despite his fragile appearance?

No way! He’s such a funny guy. And such a great director. I love every single one of his films. In one of the songs on the new album there’s this line: ‘Kiss Picasso, Woody Allen’. This is exactly what I think of life and art:

Just Live it Up.That’s sort of a Truth. And an answer. Would you say you are more serious with the new album?

Definitely, and I’m totally excit-ed about it. Lots of different people played on it. It’s not like a lo-fi home-recorded record; it was recorded in a proper studio with real mics and drums and stuff.Shouldn’t you change your band name into a more serious one before it gets re-leased?

‘Kiss Picasso, Matt Mondanile’ of course!

Ducktails play on 20 october at Madame Moustache in Brussels. The show is free for Subbacultcha! members.

You’ve been doing this for quite some time now. Can you remember what your motivation was to pick up a gui-tar? And is it still a motivation?

From a young age I had this ro-mantic idea of making a single note,

of creating sound. I always thought that the idea of just being able to make a chord or a sound would be enough. In that way, yes, it is still a motivation.What about girls?

Ben ChasnyThe man, the myth Ben Chasny is hitting Belgium twice this month. Once with his psych-folk outfit

Six Organs of Admittance and once with his supergroup Rangda. Reason enough to give the guitar maverick a call. Ben took some time and

talked to us about concentric circles, pentagrams and playing synthesizer.

‘Tomorrow I might have my fingers chopped off in a freak accident,’ he says. ‘If that happens I’ll probably play synthesizer.’ He’s keeping it

real all right.

If you ever saw the audience for Six Organs you would know I do it for the bearded men. With tattoos. I still haven’t figured out how to change our audience into an all-female one. I just play music that I like. I’m lucky that anyone at all wants to hear it.I read the album picks up on a piece that’s been lying on a shelf for over a de-cade...

It has been on my mind for ten years but now seemed the best time to do it. Most people think of time and the creative process in a linear fashion. I think of it more in terms of a con-centric circle in movement outwards, but returning to a familiar place.But did the final piece differ much from the original idea?

I think my playing is a bit more refined now. Whether or not that’s good is up to someone else to decide, I suppose.About that familiar place. Wouldn’t you say creativity is also about embarking on unknown territory?

Wouldn’t you say there is an in-finite amount of territory to be ex-plored in one piece?I’d be exhausted.

It’s a familiar place, but not the same place. That’s why it’s a concen-tric circle, not a circle.

Always moving outwards.So when Bob Dylan decided to go elec-tric that was a familiar place?

Yes, he was still playing guitar.Except for a large part of his audience.

It was still pretty much the same. He just changed his system.Do you change your system every once in a while?

I don’t consider changing a sys-tem to be integral to the movement in the first place. I don’t really sit around thinking, Hmm, I need to do some-thing new to really get the kids lis-tening. I just always have this stream of ideas coming and I need to get it down. But maybe that’s why kids don’t listen to my music!Maybe it would help if people called

you ‘the Jimi Hendrix of acoustic guitar’ more often. Was that reviewer for real, by the way?

I figured there was a sense of iro-ny in that.And the guy who compared you to John Fahey?

Everyone gets compared to John Fahey. Just tune your guitar to an open tuning, pluck some strings and BAM! You sound like John Fahey.On ‘Ascent’ you sing about Satanic rock-ets that are being launched. Why?

That line was a reference to Jack Parsons who started the Jet Propul-sion Laboratory in Pasadena (the same company that just landed the new Mars Rover). He practised mag-ic and developed a solid rocket fuel system used in Titan rockets by the USA. The system involved a penta-gram in the design, though he wasn’t really Satanic of course. The idea of all these rockets with pentagrams in them is pretty intriguing.If we were living in a devilish era, let’s say the Era of Synthesizer, and the synthesizer was the only instrument around, would you still play the guitar?

I’m all for more instruments. Maybe someone has no brain for gui-tar, but has a genius brain for a syn-thesizer. I play guitar because I had/have a romantic notion of it. That came from listening to guitar music when I was younger. If I had grown up as Klaus Schulze’s son it might be different. But I have no real problem with synthesizers. Tomorrow I might have my fingers chopped off in a freak accident. If that happens I’ll probably play synthesizer.I don’t want to end this conversation in a morbid way, but since you brought up the chopped-off fingers: will you have a guitar on your deathbed?

God, I hope not! Seems a lit-tle pretentious. I just want to watch the movie Dune on my deathbed. I’m no movie connoisseur, but that seems like something I’d want to do in the end.

Ben Chasny is playing with his band Rangda at les ateliers Claus in Brussels on 06 october and with his other band Six organs of admittance at Trix in antwerp on 31october. Both shows are free for Subbacultcha! Members.

I read somewhere that you used to read a lot of science fiction when you were younger. Do you still read a lot?

Yes.Can you name a book that really influ-enced you?

Not just one book, but the people who wrote them: Ray Bradbury and Philip K Dick. They were born in my area, in Chicago.Your music is very diverse, is that some-thing that’s inherently connected to you? Do you also have a really diverse taste in women? Books? Food? Movies?

Diversity is inherently important to me as a learning medium, so as not to mentally, spiritually or physically suffocate. Books, food, visual medi-ums, musical genres and a respectful diverse taste in women.I read that you spend lots and lots of time making music, and I guess it must be true with all the music you’re put-ting out.

It’s true. I just follow my calling. I feel that this is what I’m meant to do.What kind of music is the most fun to make? Do you decide beforehand what

Chicago producer Jamal Moss, otherwise known as Hieroglyphic Being, is something of a dance

music visionary. His exciting mix of styles ranges from African tribalism to noise jazz and slack-

jawed psychedelia. So leading up to his European tour, we decided to call him up and ask him

how he channels all that creativity. Turns out the word fun is not part of his vocabulary. Talk about

keeping it real.

you’re going to create? Or does it just flow naturally?

I don’t decide beforehand. I also don’t have fun when I create, because I’m always in a learning stage and challenging myself to be better in my creativity. When you’re learning in-tensely – no games, no fun, no smil-ing, no play – you’re just doing work. And what floats out of me isn’t always the best or always good, that’s left for the others to decide.Do you have a certain musical approach that you use every time? Or is it a new experience each day? It sounds like you’re experimenting a lot with differ-ent kinds of moods/sounds.

You’re asking questions that don’t really apply to my train of thought. I don’t see myself making music or cre-ating it. I am not a trained musician or theorist. I experiment with vibra-tions, harmonies and rhythms, that’s my approach. Never claiming or pro-fessing, just manifesting and believing that I can.I saw you play in Amsterdam earlier this year and I was dancing a lot. Is that your aim when you DJ? Or are there other things that are important to you when you are performing?

I try to do my part to free peo-ple from their burdens and transcend through selecting certain sounds, and

in the process it helps to heal what-ever ails me at the time. I am always stressing and beating myself up on the inside that no matter how bad things can be for me, I can at least make sure others can have a moment of happi-ness and release. It’s like a cleansing; a purging of the negative. The show I went to in Amsterdam was part of Club 4 reel, and since this is the For Real issue, I thought it was a fun-ny connection. What’s your definition of real?

Whatever affects your five sens-es and mental state of mind in your reality.What’s the realest thing you’ve done to-day?

Still have a faith in others no matter how many times I have been let down.Do you ever need a reality check?

Life is the reality check. I don’t need it, but I want it.

Lychee Spears

Lychee Spears is the moniker of artist/graphic designer Kim Thissen. Kim is living (and dying, as she herself says) in Antwerp. Kim is a modern hunter-gatherer, seemingly spending lifetimes online, looking for iconic images which – when placed together on a page – offer a confronting and revealing look into today’s culture. Her everything-is-possi-ble-nothing-is-real image collections betray her fine sense of the trends and tendencies of today’s web-driven culture and are an equally beautiful as unsettling window on today’s eclectic life. A spiritual, antropological and sensitive hymn for modern-day society.

Music Reviews New releases worth your while By Carly Blair

Chris CohenOvergrown Path

(Captured Tracks)

Like a nameless but influen-tial character actor in Holly-wood films, Chris Cohen has been highly active in the music scene of his native Los Angeles, subtly contributing as a mem-ber or touring player to a long list of excellent bands: Deer-hoof, White Magic, Cass Mc-Combs, Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti and more. By relocating to the farmlands of Vermont, the 37-year-old singing drummer has apparently given himself the time and quiet necessary to fo-cus on his own thoughts. Add-ing bass, a Casio MT65, piano and guitar to his repertoire, the psychedelic pop he proffers on his debut full-length, Overgrown Path, is so delicately dreamy and sympathetically idiosyncratic, I’m amazed that he took so long to step into the spotlight, but delighted that he finally did.

WoodsBend Beyond

(Woodsist)

Part of me feels a swelling of ad-miration at the sight of a dude with a gigantic beard, and then that part of me is reminded that I’ve dated dudes with gigan-tic beards. Though magnificent in principle, they are occasion-ally flecked with disproportion-ately repulsive bits of food, and the extent to which their wiry little curls get in the way makes me wonder how similar kissing the mouth buried beneath them is to going down on a chick who keeps things au naturel. Which brings me to Woods. To my knowledge, falsetto-ed frontman Jeremy Earl remains as beard-ed as ever, but on his band’s lat-est album they’ve groomed their sweet but occasionally sloppy folk/rock, trimming away the outlying fuzz and brushing up their songwriting just enough to reveal their most refined and ap-pealing album yet.

Music Reviews

Thee Oh Sees Putrifiers II

(In The Red)

This extremely prolific name- and line-up-changing San Franciscan band never stays put for long. Mastermind John Dw-yer & co have released no less than 14 albums and a mountain of EPs and 7-inches over the course of their seven-ish-year existence. If that doesn’t con-vince you Dwyer is a madman, then you should see him deep throat a mic during one of their legendarily wild live shows. All that restlessness has yielded a discography famous for shape-shifting. Appropriately enough, their latest album is like a son-ic Rubik’s cube: at first listen, a scrambled mix of everything they’ve done before, from ga-rage rock to psychedelia to pop to punk to folk to kraut rock to drone, but once you let your ears twist it around enough, you’ll find that every facet of Putrifiers II is solid.

How To Dress Well Total Loss

(Domino)

How To Dress Well is the one-man recording project of Tom Krell, a globetrotting lo-fi sort-of-R&B crooner. His 2009 de-but full-length, Love Remains, was instrumental to the shift away from chillwave towards witch house and ambient hip hop / R&B. Since Krell was an instigator rather than an imi-tator of this new style, not to mention one of its finest exem-plars, I don’t mind that its fol-low-up continues in the same vein. According to Krell, Total Loss was made during a very un-happy and confused period, and finds him learning how to ‘lose in a meaningful way and sustain loss as a source of creative ener-gy’. As his most accomplished-sounding and gorgeous work yet, it succeeds admirably in this regard.

Food Cooking with... By Zofia Ciechowska

Tell me about your eating habits.My wife and I always eat re-

ally simple stuff. The area we live in has a lot of Thai restaurants so we eat a load of rice and veg-etables. We had a big chunk of time when the gas in our apart-ment was shut off. Picture my kitchen – there’s a small electric hot plate on top of the stove, a toaster, a microwave and one of those folding electric sandwich makers. We just made a lot of stir fries on the hot plate or we cracked eggs in the electric sand-wich maker and made fried-egg sandwiches on leftover wheat bread from the local coffee shop with cheese and avocados and some arugula. That was a big sta-ple of our diet for a while. Great for when you don’t have a lot of money... or gas. When Black Dice started touring around 1997, we read an article about these dudes who wrote a cook-book about cooking stuff while you’re driving and you just wrap all the ingredients in tin foil,

pack them in the car engine and they’re cooked when you get to your destination. Sometimes you have to be creative.

So here’s a recipe for a nice hot-plate stir fry. We have a big sack of Japanese sticky rice in the kitchen that we cook for this dish by the way. Rice is just the best. It reminds me of this time back in high school when I made this paper pulp for sculptures and I had so much of it I just start-ing throwing it out of the win-dow of the studio on the fourth floor. Most of it just splattered on the ground and made these paper pancakes that cooked in the sun but sometimes it would hit a moving car and you could totally hear the pulp crease the roof. I kind of imagine rice could be similar.

Black Dice play on 02 October at De Kreun in Kortrijk. The show is free for Subbacultcha! members.

Film: Battleship Potemkin 02 October - KASKCinema, Gent

20.30 | €5 | Free for Subbacultcha! members

Sergei Eisenstein’s 1925 silent propaganda classic, about the mutiny that occurred in 1905 when the crew of the Russian battleship Potemkin re-belled against the officers of the Czarist regime. This iconic piece of Soviet cinema still echoes through the world of film today, while its ‘soundtracks’ have helped to reinvigorate the movie through the eras.

Black Dice + Possessed Factory02 October - De Kreun, Kortrijk

20.00 | €10 | Free for Subbacultcha! membersBrooklyn’s Black Dice originally hail from the same Providence, Rhode Is-land School of Design noise punk scene that birthed Lightning Bolt and key noise label Load Records. Their new album Mr. Impossible is billed as a ‘soundtrack to a substance-fuelled teen basement show on Mars.’ To my ears, this translates to a sort of extraterrestrial electronic jazz punk I could imagine playing at a druggy afterparty of the Mos Eisley Cantina scene in Star Wars. Fifteen years of damaging eardrums and the need to balance music with real-life shit thankfully hasn’t dampened these veterans’ innate enthusiasm for fucking around with weird noises, and their new material sounds as uncompromising and vital as ever. Possessed Factory is a Bel-gian noise duo featuring Mauro Pawlowski of dEUS and Evil Superstars.

Rangda + Amen Dunes06 October - Les Ateliers Claus, Brussels


In the island of Bali’s mythology, Rangda is a child-eating demon queen. In the label of Drag City’s discography, Rangda is no less bone-chilling: a gui-tar-shredding stoner rock trio comprised of Sir Richard Bishop of Sun City Girls, Ben Chasny of Six Organs of Admittance and Comets on Fire, and Chris Corsano, a virtuosic jazz drummer who’s played with Bjork and many others. Also playing tonight is Damon McMahon, aka Amen Dunes, who will no doubt be playing some of his beautiful, benumbing lo-fi pop.

XXYYXX + Seiren08 October - DOK (Ladda), Ghent

20.00 | €7 | Free for Subbacultcha! membersXXYYXX isn’t the sound of a knackered keyboard. But even if it was, Mar-cell Everett could probably fix it. This Florida-based kid (16 years old!) is particularly exciting because he’s utterly off-template. He’s absorbed all the post-dubstep and witch house sounds and simply moves onwards, building synths, reconstructing effects and fearlessly throwing together new sounds and beats. Support from local beat producer Seiren.

Hieroglyphic Being + Louis H11 October - NEST, Ghent


This Chicago producer, aka Jamal Moss, is something of a dance music vi-sionary, born out of the all-too-familiar Chicago house scene but always willing to push at its boundaries. From within that contemporary electronic scene, he runs the daring imprint Mathematics Recordings, but it’s his live sets that have the most potential to inspire. In some moments he reminds of a deeper, darker Caribou, shying away from the dance pop and limelight. But it’s his self-described ‘uglier’ moments in the mix where the real magic can be heard, edging from African tribalism to noise jazz and slack-jawed psychedelia. You just don’t expect DJs to sound this… broken.

Jooklo Duo11 October - Scheld’apen, Antwerp

20.00 | €TBA | Free for Subbacultcha! members

Jooklo Duo is the duo of Virginia Genta and David Vanzan, two self-taught musicians who’ve been taunting each other with drums and horns and woodwind instruments for almost a full decade. Along the way they’ve

toured the world and met a host of daring collaborators who have brought additional sonics and textures to their art. But with or without these guests, the duo is explosive. Their blasts of furious noise and improv will always be labelled jazz, but their art is energy and expression without boundaries.

Teengirl Fantasy18 October - Botanique, Brussels


Delicious mid-tempo beats and swirling, reverb-drenched sounds from Teengirl Fantasy duo Nick Weiss and Logan Takahashi. Since their in-ception there’s been a lo-fi DIY aesthetic at heart, but new album Tracer shows they can also produce some rousing dance pop, touching on clas-sic Orbital and Merriweather-style Animal Collective, albeit with softened edges. Plus they still put on one of the most exciting live performances of all their DIY electro peers. The show is promoted in collaboration with Ur-ban Outfitters.


Page 55Page 55


Ducktails + Bear Bones, Lay Low20 October - Madame Moustache, Brussels20.00 | €8 | Free for Subbacultcha! members

Real Estate guitarist Matthew Mondanile’s solo project Ducktails started out sounding pretty chillwavey, but has gradually become more refined, with cleaner production and generally poppier feel. His upcoming new album was written collaboratively with Big Troubles, and features Oneohtrix Point Never’s Daniel Lopatin, Joel Ford of Ford & Lopatin/Airbird, Madeline Fol-lin of Cults, Sam Mehran of Outer Limits, members of Big Troubles, Jessa Farkas of Future Shuttle and Real Estate’s Martin Courtney. It’s doubtful the whole gang will come along on tour, so here’s hoping the whole Tupac Hologram thing extends to lo-fi pop.

Six Organs of Admittance31 October - Trix, Antwerp


Mesmeric new-folk from the ever-prolific guitarist Ben Chasny, blending acoustic prettiness with drones and psychedelic vocal harmonies. Away from Comets on Fire, his play is soft and lulling, but no less memorable. This year the Organs released Ascent, upping the psych-jam factor a notch further, and creating another sprawling masterpiece that harnesses both the sweet and sour.

Agenda Shows in October

Van She02October-Botanique,Brussels

Africa is so 2009. These Australian lads, on the go as Van She for a full decade al-ready, have blown off the traditional electro-pop templates and stumbled upon a recipe that’s pure Caribbean – none more so than during the synth-riddled new track ‘Jamaica’, a cornerstone of new album Idea of Hap-piness. Leaves may be landing in your hair but Down Under summertime is just getting ready to erupt, so embrace the sunny side and dance your socks off.

Black Dice02October-DeKreun,Kortrijk

Brooklyn’s noisemakers Black Dice have been damaging eardrums for over 15 years, and their new material sounds as uncom-promising and vital as ever. Read more on page 51

Play Festival 05-06October-Muziekodroom,Hasselt

The beginning and the end of the under-ground will always be in Hasselt. Play Fes-tival returns in 2012 with a broad selection of new music and old faves, promising in-timate performances across five stages in the Muziekodroom. Dance beats rule the Friday sessions, from the enduring Herb-

alizer to the contemporary dance-floor an-tics of Machinedrum. Saturday sees the guitars reloaded, but there’s still plenty of indie electro and crossover from the likes of Balam Acab and Palmbomen.

Rangda + Amen Dunes 06October-LesAteliersClaus,Brussels

Guitar-shredding stoner rock trio Rangda is playing alongside benumbing lo-fi pop artist Amen Dunes. Read more on page 52.

Release: Onda Sonora & On-Point

06October-Beursschouwburg,BrusselsAs if you didn’t know, Onda Sonora is the hard-working musical collective renowned for picking out off-centre music and artists. No hype, just interesting projects and excit-ing collaborations. Tonight they’re teaming up with On-point Records for one of their RELEASE experiences – a multimedia proj-ect supporting DIY talents through expos, concerts and workshops.

Islands 07October-Botanique,Brussels

This Montreal band has retained only its founding member (Nick Thorburn) over its seven-year existence, and with his sweet lyrics and goofy antics, Thorburn provides

oOoOOplayson23OctoberindeKreuninKortrijk

Page 57


the cornerstone of the band’s ever-evolving take on indie rock.

A Place to Bury Strangers08October-Botanique,Brussels

Though ‘New York’s loudest band’ isn’t necessarily the highest of accolades, be-ing forerunners of the shoegaze revival is something APTBS can be proud of. Their new and entirely self-produced album, Wor-ship, delivers more of the shoedelicrockga-zia they’ve used to shatter ears for years.

XXYYXX08October-DOK(Ladda),Ghent

Marcell Everett, aka XXYYXX, builds his own synths, reconstructs effects and fear-lessly throws together new sounds and beats. Read more on page 52.

Clock Opera09October-AncienneBelgique,BrusselsImagine a world in which Coldplay are tol-erable. Nah, okay… picture tuning into a Saturday night chat show and experienc-ing Dan Deacon going mental and cast-ing a spell over millions. Well that’s where Guy Connelly’s Clock Opera is coming from – or is possibly headed. He has the soar-ing voice and the anthemic choruses at his disposal, but he’s also just a normal, albe-

it slightly mental, bloke with an arpeggia-tor and a wall of sampled guitars. After a few years of singles and live shows, debut album Ways to Forget has finally seen the light of day.

The Hundred In The Hands10October-Botanique,Brussels

This NYC duo take their name from a 19th-century battle in which Native American chief Crazy Horse killed 100 Civil War sol-diers. Since their sound isn’t so much a tri-umph of the primitive over the orderly as it is darkly atmospheric synth pop, and their instrumental set-up includes guitar and a miniKORG but exactly zero instruments made out of animal parts, I can only assume the connection is that they’re into peyote or some shit.

Hieroglyphic Being11October-NEST,Ghent

Dance-music visionary edging from African tribalism to noise jazz and slack-jawed psy-chedelia. Read more on pages 34 and 53.

Fushitsusha + The Tenses11October-LesAteliersClaus

Psychedelic rock from Fushitsusha, led by Tokyo-based guitarist and vocalist Keiji Hai-no. Course, the inclusion of Haino alone

XXYYXXplayson08OctoberinDOKinGhent

Agenda Shows in October

Page 58

guarantees that this is no ordinary psyche-delic rock. And most definitely not some namby-pamby indie boys who turned up the reverb to mask a lack of proficiency. Nope, over the past 30 years, Haino have been responsible for some of the most fucking terrifying guitars and vocals put to tape – in a completely exhilarating way, of course. So Fushitsusha is no easy trip, but they’ll move you if they don’t destroy you first. Oh, and there’s support from The Tenses, the slightly more concise and compact offshoot of ’70s psych LA outfit, Smegma.

Erased Tapes 15th Anniversary16October-Stuk,Leuven

17October-Stuk,Leuven(soldout)Between the warm neoclassical piano work of Nils Frahm (a student of one of the last students of Tschaikowsky), the almost-pop-py piano ambiance of Iceland’s Ólafur Ar-nalds and the the droning soundscapes and melancholy modern piano compositions of A Winged Victory for the Sullen (a col-laboration between ex-Sparklehorse and Stars of the Lid musician Adam Wiltzie and composer Dustin O’Halloran), this evening should make for a spellbinding experience.

Tame Impala16October-AncienneBelgique,BrusselsThese Australian psychedelic rockers blew their fair share of minds with their 2010 de-but, the gorgeously hypnotic Innerspeaker. Their sophomore release, Lonerism, purport-edly represents somewhat of a departure from their debut by relying on a broader sonic palette and more emotional and nar-rative songwriting.

Festival Des Libertés18-27October-ThéâtreNational&KVS,

BrusselsThis multidisciplinary festival is renowned

for its libertarian programming and a cut-ting-edge selection of unscreened docu-mentaries from around the world. But its ten-day schedule is also packed with the-atre, exhibitions and fiery live sets from in-ternationally minded acts. In 2012, the bands include Brooklyn crazies Antibalas and hip hop stalwarts Public Enemy and De La Soul.

Teengirl Fantasy18October-Botanique,Brussels

Delicious mid-tempo beats and swirling, re-verb-drenched sounds with one of the most exciting live performances of all their DIY electro peers. Read more on page 54.

How To Dress Well18October-Charlatan,Ghent

19October-AncienneBelgique,BrusselsHow To Dress Well is the one-man record-ing project of Cologne-based American expat Tom Krell, a lo-to-no-fi sort-of-R&B crooner well-versed in chillwave tropes, but just distinctive enough to ensure himself a spot on a gorillavsbear monthly mix. His devastating new album, Total Loss, features an abundance of beautiful and romantic mixtape-worthy moments.

Ducktails20October-MadameMoustache,

BrusselsReal Estate guitarist Matthew Mondanile’s Ducktails project features carefree and gloriously summery guitar melodies. Read more on pages 20 and 54.

Dirty Projectors20October-AncienneBelgique,BrusselsThis Brooklyn-based experimental pop group have carved out a niche for them-selves with their blend of ambitious experi-


Page 59

mentation, traditional instrumentation and harmonically-complex vocals. Their new full-length, Swing Lo Magellan, is more playful and spontaneous than their earlier work, and that unguarded intimacy makes it their most welcoming and indispensable record yet.

Steve Gunn 20October-Beursschouwburg,BrusselsSteve Gunn is especially known for his work with Brooklyn improvisational trio GHQ. His solo work is a journey, not a des-tination, and his masterful guitar playing (both acoustic and electric) finds him travel-ling from slow ballads to simply-strummed ditties, lengthy raga/psych hybrids, twangy country meditations and sprightly blue-grass-inflected jaunts.

Doomsday Student21October-LesAteliersClaus,Brussels

Providence, Rhode Island’s Arab on Radar cohabitated the same seminal noise rock scene as Lightning Bolt. Following their brief reunion in 2010, they collapsed upon themselves like a funeral pyre. Doomsday Student has risen out of the ashes of three-quarters of that band, sounding similarly re-lentless but rejuvenated.

Moon Duo + Zechs Marquise23October-Trix,Antwerp

Minimal psych twosome Moon Duo’s Rip-ley Johnson and Sanae Yamada are part-ners on and off stage who’ve recently relo-cated from the bustling psych scene of San Francisco to Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. Originally started as a side project of Ri-pley’s main band, Wooden Shjips, the duo earned its fair share of praise with songs built on a hypnotically repetitive foundation of organ, fuzzy guitar and simple percus-sion. Support from improv psych rockers Zechs Marquise.

Balam Acab + oOoOO23October-DeKreun,Kortrijk

Alec Koone, aka Balam Acab, got lumped in with the witch house coven early on, based on his use of slow tempos, warped vocals and releasing on witch house stronghold Tri Angle Records, but his newer material is more like a pastoral counterpart to Burial’s urban vibe, incorporating elements of hip hop, field recordings, folk and drone into a richly textured and meditative whole. Label-mate oOoOO will provide support with his darkly seductive beats.

Af Ursin + Limpe Fuchs26October-Netwerk,Aalst

Contemporary art noise from Af Ursin, aka Timo van Luijk. This electro acoustic experi-mentalist has been specialising in impro-vised acoustic sounds and tape loops for more than 20 years. Support from German composer and improviser Limpe Fuchs and electric guitar quartet Zwerm. Plus a screen-ing of the documentary Step Across the Bor-der about guitarist/composer Fred Frith.

Tallest Man On Earth30October-AncienneBelgique,BrusselsThe man of charm returns and we dare anyone to deny him. The Swedish indie-folk maestro only released his third album There’s No Leaving Now back in summer-time, and it already feels like a natural fit with his previous acoustic works.

Six Organs Of Admittance30October-Charlatan,Ghent

31October-Trix,AntwerpMesmeric new-folk from the ever-prolific guitarist Ben Chasny who will bring mem-bers from his legendary backing band Comets on Fire. Read more on pages 26 and 55.
