Truckasauras Rooftop

"Dingus and the Buttf***s" Live at the Lo-Fi, Seattle WA from sauco on Vimeo.

Over the summer Octopus Fest happened at LoFi, Black Lodge, and Victory. An all day music festival that I was lucky enough to be a part of. This video is a gorgeous interpretation of what happened that early evening. Truckasauras was rocking out on LoFi's rooftop at dawn as the sun was setting behind the Needle. I just finally got to see the video and I must say I was very thankful to be DJing all night after this set. I didn't want to help unload gear down that treacherous ladder hole in the roof! I would have broke one of their many many pieces of gear. I want to play on a roof!

NIGHTVISIONS from Christian Palmer on Vimeo.

A new short film by Christian Palmer, commissioned by Cairo Seattle for exhibition at Expo 89.

This film was created over a series of three evenings, and all of the dialogue is improvised. We shot with two iPhones and a little Kodak HD camera that I borrowed from Linas Phillips.

The actors drank a lot of beer but we all held hands and I cast spells on them and waved burning sage in their faces and demanded wrestling, tackling, piggyback rides, yelling, and lighting fireworks- everything you do when you meet someone new and fun.

Natalia Fabia

Very talented Natalia Fabia blows my mind away with her work, its so beautiful and realistic. She has her first solo exhibit Jan. 14- Feb 11 at Jonathan Levine Gallery in New York City.

Hype Williams 'One Nation'

Last week I (finally..) stumbled on to Roy Blunt (aka Roy Nnawuchi) and Inga Copeland, a duo from Hackney and Estonia that are the psychedelic redefinition of lo-fi known as Hype Williams. Enigmatic and deliberately elusive, their name was blatantly stolen from famed video director and their style defies any attempt at traditional classification. It is an impossible puzzle of low quality sounds, twisted rhythms, electronic noise, slices of pop culture and acid humour which against all the odds, has received unceasing acclaim from the specialist critics. The LP I have been into the most is "One Nation', released on Hippos In a Tank is a testament to the term bedroom producer. Also have been feeling there most recent release on Kode 9's Hyperdub label. Entitled Kelly Price w8 gain ep vol II is a great continuation in the vein of not only their established and quirky musical style, but also their zero-day pop-culture-rip-off naming policy. Gwan.

Flosstradamus 'Total Recall'

I havent heard much from Chicago duo Flosstradamus since somewhere back in '09. I had always been a fan of there stuff back in the day when they first started floating around with their quirky edits and remixes. To kick of the new year, following the release of their Jubulation EP on Fools Gold last month,  they dropped this free single and video today entitled 'Total Recall'. A Trance Traphouse affair, with epic breakdowns, hardcore Rotterdam Rob Gee kick drums and lion-hearted, enchanted lady from the sea vocals. Check out the free download and video below. Everything from raving in Ibiza to Toyko drifting.

The Seventh Letter

"This video documents the process of Roid’s painting a signature T-Shirt design for TheSeventhLetter line on a recent trip to Detroit. Roid uses a unique process of painting half the letters upside-down, only to be revealed in the reflection of a murky puddle of water below."
