In the absence of concert listings, my regular Monday dispatches have fallen off. After bringing some life to the blog with the "bumping into" series, I figure I should get back in the groove. I'm guessing that this will be a bit like what used to get shoved into the end of the post when I was doing listings — some bandcamp suggestions, nods to a few livestreams, and sundry community notes (email me if you have anything that needs broadcast in the latter category!). Plus maybe a look back through the MFS archives.
Community notes:
- Special reminder that due to recording restrictions under the stay-at-home order, the Women From Space Festival has shifted forward to April 9-11. (Means you have more time to acquire your Holobox Theatre!)
- Carl Didur made a rare social media appearance to remind us that things are still regularly being added on his excellent youtube channel, including this just-posted Faust cover from Zacht Automaat:
In the Mix:
- My latest Drone Brunch mixtape is up on Mixcloud, full of youtube finds and other overlapping sounds (played at various speeds), including some fast Steve Reich slowed way down. Sounds by Lonershy, Ruscadå & Joel Gilardini, Mahan Esfahani, Robert Rutman's U.S. Steel Cello Ensemble, Mooons, and Stars of the Lid:
It happened this week...
- ...on March 1, 2014 at The Tranzac's Southern Cross Lounge. Sending hugs and regards to all the musicians in this incredible band: Scott Peterson (double bass, voice), Eric Woolston (drums), Peter Lutek (clarinet), Jay Hay (sax, flute), Tom Richards (tuba), Colin Fisher (guit), Isla Craig (voice), Jay Anderson (percussion) and Brandon Valdivia.

Bandcamp corner:
- Is it Bandcamp Friday yet? Not quite, but it will be on Friday, so get your shopping lists in order. Bandcamp Fridays are a great opportunity to pre-order stuff from artists; it makes for a nice surprise when you get that notification on the album's release! On that score, Lina Allemano just put two albums up for pre-sale, and both come highly recommended:
- Plus, here's a couple more things I'll definitely be grabbing:
