“Play This In Stere-ere-o…” © Mr. Jolico’s Rhyme Partner

Since my club-going career started when I was about thirteen years old I probably have about a thousand anecdotes similar to the one I trotted out in yesterday’s post. But the sad thing is, since the incident in question, which occurred close to two years ago, I’ve been “clubbing” only a scant few times. Perhaps […]

Short Piers and Space Travelers

August 13, 2008 – 10:41 am
Last week one of my absolute favorite bands in the world — Athens, Georgia-based Indie-Pop sextet of Montreal — released “Id Engager,” the first single from their forthcoming ninth full-length album Skeletal Lamping.

While composing yesterday’s love-note to decade-strong genre-defining artists I almost forgot a couple of indie musicians that’ve been gracing my headphones of late who are putting out a new record this week too.

The Ghosts of Dancefloors’ Past, and Future

July 7, 2008 – 10:53 am
As predicted, my “holiday” wasn’t exactly what I would call celebratory. The sky of my neighborhood was almost constantly alight with illegal fireworks being lit in back yards for blocks in every direction. But I didn’t purposefully watch a fireworks display of any sort.
