Britt + Amanda of Not Not Fun

MI AMI “CUT MEN” 12” & “STEAL YOUR FACE” LP (THRILL JOCKEY)

The sickest live band and the most impressive remixers-of-their-own-stuff and the best visual re-appropriaters of Anthony Kiedis and Bob Marley you could ever humanly hope for. ONE LOVE.

GALA DROP “OVERCOAT HEAT” (GOLF CHANNEL)

Patient Portuguese faux-dub crew finally throw down some new vinyl. Press PLAY, REPEAT, REPEAT, etc.

PEAKING LIGHTS “SPACE PRIMITIVE” LP (NIGHT PEOPLE)

Exquisitely thoughtful musicians, total reinventors-of-cool, and the current supreme arbiters of LAID BACK style.

DADAWAH “PEACE AND LOVE” LP (DUG OUT)

Andrew & Helga from Metal Rouge gave us this for our birthdays. People think our music is drug music, but c’mon. Jamaikka’s most beautifully blunted.

RUSSIAN TSARLAG “THERE’S A SNAKE IN MY CASH REGISTER” CS (no label)

Look, there are WEIRDOS…and then there’s Carlos. He’s like a wizard. A trash-can junk-magician humble pie weirdo wizard. No one knows what this tape means but it’s an opus.

MISSISSIPPI RECORDS mix tapes

If you’re a Portlander going to Mississippi Records looking for their mix tapes you won’t find any cause Pete Swanson’s already bought them all and sent them to us. 2010 was their best cassette year ever – tape after tape of golden olden goodies.

PSYCHIC REALITY/INCA ORE/LA VAMPIRES West Coast Tour

We have no LA Vamps sets to relate but there were some jaw-dropping nights on this 10-day frolic up-and-down the coast. Most specifically: Psychic Reality’s green-lantern speaker orgy in Sacramento and Inca Ore’s way outsider psychodrama catharsis in Oakland.

TEETH MOUNTAIN live in Austin

Baltimore’s least legal tribal commune perform their last American show for an audience standing and chanting in the strobe lights. Could have been four minutes, or forty mintues, of pure mesmerization.

FRAN LEBOWITZ “PUBLIC SPEAKING” documentary, directed by MARTIN SCORCESE

Finally, a solid and eloquent case for intellectual and cultural elitism. (You took the words right out of our mouths, Fran).

Q& A with SAM MCPHEETERS in “TOUCHABLE SOUND” book (SOUNDSCREEN DESIGN)

“Not everyone should make art. Not everyone should be in a band. Some people have to farm, and repair bridges, and make socks. I certainly wish I’d learned some practical trade 20 years ago.” A seasoned punk dropping dark knowledge. Smart shit in a smart book.

Angela/Weirdo Records

Angela's Xmas 2010

1. Muehl, Otto ~ Psycho Motorik ~ none
lp 2010/1971
Mmmm, darned if I don't adore the truly wondrous, yummy world of Otto. Viennese Aktionist who, along with Hermann Nitsch, Gunter Brus & a few pals decided that painting had become boring & they would do well to make it more visceral. Shortly thereafter, Otto, who seemed to see the whole world like a big ball of playdoh, began to appear in his own films & others'; pouring ketchup into vaginas, breaking eggs onto pretty girls' boobs, having Barry White-style sex with a goose, poking his dick through fruit arrangements, & other fun & visually arresting stuff. Muehl eventually formed a commune to try & break off from typical society, and ended up getting arrested for cavorting with children. Eventually he got out & started a new commune in Portugal. Here he shows off his rather brilliant & under-documented capabilities for blubbering, burping, slapping thighs, and yelling like a deranged Nazi over classical music. Several of his commune children play trad jazz these days, and there's even a band that they all have together called the Sahara Baby Jazz Band.

2. Various ~ The Sound of Siam ~ Soundway
cd/lp 2010/1964-75
Once again, Soundway shows everybody how it's done. Wonderful junket through several related subgenres of Thai 60s/70s music (Luk Thung, Luk Krung, Molam & more). Urban pop, countryside songs that explore morality & vocal tricks, the trance-inducing mouth harp that looks like a couple of sets of pan pipes glued into a pair of bird wings. Twangy high vocals that often tease, a gentle weaving rhythm, and a lot of odd western moves thumping away in the background. Funk-drenched intros kick in just like Marvin Gaye's songs do. Over here, someone nabs the bass line from Carol King's 'It's Too Late', and someone else sings a snippet of Buddy Holly/Bobby Vee's 'More Than I Can Say'. But it's not just riffspotting- you'll swoon over the featherlight voice of Ream Daranoi and the possessed beatnik noir of the Viking Combo Band. Notes detail the content of the lyrics, which are also pretty incredible.

3. No Balls ~ No Balls ~ Permanent
lp 2010
Drajan Bryngelsson (drums) & Dan Raberg (who may well be the greatest trumpet player alive today) of Sweden's utterly mighty Brainbombs. All the convulsive, abrasive guitar you could want, jaggedly hitched to a rhythm section that moves like an SUV crunching down a black diamond slope. Vocals are there less often, & buried deep, but still run through some sort of shitty nazi-megaphone. One can only hope the lyrics which kept away pussywhipped listeners are still in effect too. So, so, so many bands out there who think they play heavy when they merely shovel college kid bar fodder. Get on your knees now, as the riffs of nihilism are ready to hammer your forehead & provide a cure.

4. Ike, Reiko ~ Kokotsu No Sekai ~ Bamboo
cd 2010/1971
The drop dead beautiful Pam Grier of Tokyo, whose entry into pinky violence movies caused a scandal because she was supposedly only 16 years old (actually the hubub was publicity stunt & she was 18). The bad press made her enough of a star that she could switch to delinquent schoolgirl flicks, where instead of having sex onscreen she led gangs, weilded shotguns & ran around in leather jackets with no shirt underneath. Unforgettable album that takes a left turn at Serge Gainsbourg's 'Je T'aime Moi Non Plus' and never looks back. Zippy lounge & nightclub vamps, with a lot of dusky jazz-flute & vibes, behind endless orgasm sighs, whip cracks, scintillating whimpers, funny little grunts. Perhaps best of all is the somewhat badly recorded mewling that runs throughout. Only thing that could make me like this better is if it had been reished on Schimpfluch instead.

5. Adkins, Hasil ~ White Light White Meat ~ Norton
lp 2010/1958-65
Yes baby, you can have peanut butter AND chicken on your hot dog. The one-and-only huncher who whipped up amateur monster makeup looks in his spare time away from his gloriously mangled home-recordings of rockabilly. A greatest hits that's collected with the same kind of obsessive care that Haze's neighbor Jesco White put into boot polishing. Folkways style jacket & easily the best (and best-earned) title of a record in 2010.

6. Tudor, David ~ Bandoneon ! ~ Microcinema
dvd 2010/1966
Vintage footage of Tudor's explosive installation, inspired by a previous Maruicio Kagel piece for the tango noise box. In a very large, reverberant hall (an empty armory about the size of an airplane hangar), Tudor hooked a South American accordion up to a bunch of telephone relay systems, electronics & oscillators. The accordion ran like some horrific alarm system through the huge PA. It's blistering waveforms produced some visuals, and even radio-controlled a bunch of wooden statues on wheeled platforms puttering around the room in circles. A screaming mess, clearly incredibly loud, with harsh lights & crude mechanical monsters. And all of it run by Tudor, with his effeminate little voice, tidy suit & horn rimmed glasses. Tons of fascinating talking heads, including Gordon Mumma, Pauline Oliveros, David Behrman.

7. Sabu ~ Palo Congo ~ Blue Note
lp 2010/1957
Louis Martinez (aka Sabu) came from Spanish Harlem & started playing on the street corner with cans. He went to Puerto Rico as a teenager, & landed back in the states just in time to take the conga chair from Pozo in Dizzy Gillespie's last band. Heroin kept Sabu from becoming a national name, and he spent a couple of years running a strip club in Baltimore. Utterly raw, afrocuban percussion workout that in no way belongs on the dapper Blue Note label. It seems impossible that this barbed-wire, street ugly record was issued only 1 year after Harry Belafonte's primping 'Banana Boat Song'. That thing that sounds like somebody hammering on an electric fence is Cuban bandleader Arsenio Rodriguez (the inventor of the modern conjunto lineup) playing the tres guitar.

8. Orchestre Regional de Mopti ~ Best of the First Biennale of Arts and Culture for the Young ~ Mississippi
lp 2010/1970
Oh cripes, that hypnotic guitar is so bewitching! The rest of the record is good, but the phantasmal clipped riff & liquefying horns on "Recital" brings you one of the finest moments in African music. Period. The song is dedicated to Seku Amadou, the leader of the Massina Empire, who founded Mopti as a city & ruled from 1818-1845. Mopti lies as the x point in the cross of Mali's geography and it's rivers. It's the venice of the Niger delta, not far from mud mosques & where the Dogon see stars without telescopes, and the capital for Mali tourists. The band was 14 members strong, led by singer Sory Bamba, funded by the state. Besides a 10 inch sized single, this is their only album.

9. Rob Jo Star Band ~ Rob Jo Star Band ~ Pomme
lp 2010/1975
French band that's very 13th Floor Elevators, but with freaky, badly-made synths in the place of the jug. Trebly fx-free rhythm guitar (it almost sounds acoustic... whiff of punk/Velvets there) & decrepit fuzz-as-frying-pan electric solos. One helluva long way from Magma, that's for sure. At the time I think it may have prompted the question 'Avez vous utilise la console de mixage avec ton cul?', as the Michael Yonkers electronics tend to be way up front. English lyrics to 'Not the Crazy Man' song are laughingly self-defeating in an accent so thick.

10. Various ~ Flipper Psychout ~ Vampisoul
2lp/cd 2010/1969-75
Nothing starts the heavy panting and the pink spotlights spinning faster than those three delectable little words: Italian library music. The orchestra/studio system/hit factory was well entrenched in Rome throughout the 60s, and the competing RAI & RCA studios employed what seems like a kazillion highly skilled musicians full time. Side forays into jazz or avant-something weren't uncommon. Many inventive composers dipped into the lucrative library recording markets for insta-jazz-lounge and psych-funk-schmaltz. Amedeo Tommasi (piano) & Piero Montanari (bass) were in a jazz band together in the 70s. Tommasi was also the electric pianist for Ennio Morricone during the 80s. Il Maestro's famous whistler, Alessandro Alessandroni, also shows off his arranging chops here. Moody fuzzy breaks & mouthwatering rarities, compiled by Italian DJ Alessandro Casella.
