Recorded at September LP's LPs (4th Anniversary Party), 15, 2016.

Toblerone Boys - unknown

A night of fine music among the crate-digging as LP's LPs celebrated its birthday in style. Amongst the cozy bricabrac at the back of the store, Randy "Man Made Hill" Gagne and Greydyn Wolfcow showed off some experiments from their dank pop lab, with lo-fi drum machine beats giving a framework for wobbly synths.

Toblerone Boys - [last section]

This mad scientist funk laboratory with potions crafted from smashed beakers and broken equipment made one of its infrequent appearances at this gig, beaming strange rays into the forebrains of the assembled crowd, creating a new lurching army of the night.

Recorded at Ratio ("Wavelength 653"), March 27, 2015.

Kudos to Wavelength's Adam Bradley for putting together this off-kilter night of side-projects and pop experimentalism. There was a pleasing underlying affinity in all four sets of something being just off a little. Opening duo Toberlone Boys exhibited that quality, with Randy "Man Made Hill" Gagne and Greydyn Wolfcow hunching over their keybs to generate woozy beatscapes that still managed to be slicker than the pair's pulled-back hair.

Recorded at The Tranzac ("Healing Power Festive Fest"), December 15, 2012.

Toblerone Boys - unknown

Full review to follow. Healing Power is as much a vibe and a community spirit as it is a record label. Returning to their origins in the Tranzac, this night brought together friends in bands new and old for a holiday celebration at the opposite solstice to their picnics.

Another project from Man Made Hill's Randy Gagne, this duo has apparently been rebranded to a more user-friendly name than former moniker Toddler Body. They are still working on the boundary between squiggly funk and unbounded experimentalism, here heard with a pleasing groove.

You can check out some more photos of the night at the MFS Facebook page.
