Ask Ad Hoc: Hello World

askadhoc:

My name is Emilie Friedlander. If you follow underground music, you may know my work as the former editor of Pitchfork sister site Altered Zones (R.I.P.), the founder of the blog Visitation Rites, and the singer and violinist in the band La Big Vic. I am currently writing reviews…

Atlas Sound “Te Amo”
This is from a Bowery Ballroom show that NYC Taper captured last month, part of a rad-but-brief tour to support Parallax with buds Carnivores and Frankie from Balkans opening. Listening to the whole set, it’s a shame Atlas Sound didn’t make it up to Boston. This rendition of “Te Amo” is pretty damn stunning, stretching past 11 minutes in order to build the necessary layers of arpeggiated everything. The command that Bradford Cox has on his pedals is next-level: he incorporates them into the songwriting, but never makes the pedal-pressing a gimmick.

THE BABIES LIVE AT THE MET

The site is going to be down for a day or so while I switch webhosts.

I’ve been meaning to post these Babies live recordings on sally for the last few days, just haven’t gotten around to it. My DSLR records video in mono sound so I have a Tascam sound recorder that I use to sync the sound to the video with - but unfortunatly I turned the sound recorder off on my camera when I was taking the video and now I have no idea what audio is supposed to go with the video.

Anyway, enjoy these live recordings:

The Babies: Live at the MET 1
The Babies: Live at the MET 2

p.s. thanks for the beer and the bro-date jonah

All of my friends said you were out of my league, that there’s no way I’d last more than 10 seconds.
