I'm usually pretty good at staying on top of the local action but I must admit that Hyder Ali flew in under my radar. When I saw they were opening the Kristoff Krane CD Release I tried remembering where I knew them from and it ended up being fylers for their April 08 residency at the Nomad. Having covered the May 07 Abzorbr and December 07 Mel Gibson & the Pants residencies I can now say that I'm thoroughly disappointed that I was asleep last April. Anyone got a time machine I could borrow? When I checked out the songs online I got pretty excited for this set. Trust me, they do not disappoint. Poor twisted me, another Twin Cities band to Archive for.
What are you doing Saturday October 11th? Hyder Ali and Junkyard Empire are having their dual EP release show at the Nomad with Face Candy opening the evening. With nothing but respect for all 3 bands I know where I'll be.
About the patched audio...let's just say the Entry was crazy crowded and I was busy helping someone out. On another note, I love the Entry but it's one of those small bar venues that can fill up with Chatty Cathys so it's not always the easiest place to pull a good tape. With that said, people were pretty respectful during the set and I'm really happy with the recording. The meticulous taper in me even included Sunrise unpatched as track 7.

Chris is a friend but that's not why I would recommend people check out his debut solo record. Check it out because it's a stellar album from start to finish. Both sets are unique in vibe and feeling. The AA set features a very attentive younger crowd whereas the Late set features folks drinking and getting lose. Chris also recently published his first book entitled the "The Other" which I purchased a copy of the other night and am looking forward to reading.
Early Show:
Mr. Dufax - intelligently crafted electronic music.
Students set - Chris had a bunch of his students come up to perform their own songs.
dial_system - Casey & Graham O' Brien - improvised electronic music with bass, drums and laptop.
Oliver Hart acoustic set - Micheal Eyedea Oliver Hart Larsen on acoustic guitar, keyboards and vocals.
Kristoff Krane - you know, that one guy.
Late Show:
Mr. Dufax
Hyder Ali - This band is amazing and I hope to torrent the set soon.

Max Sparber's review of the CD Release show on How Was the Show
There's a buzz around Lucy Michelle & the Velvet Lapelles that is quickly consuming the Twin Cities whole. They released their debut album "Orange Peels and Rattlesnakes" last July. It's a wonderful album and they've already begun writing new songs with plans to record soon.
I ran the mics a little wider than I usually do but I'm very happy with the results. An interesting experiment at the Cedar which many would argue is one of my best sounding venues in the upper Midwest. Many thanks to the band and the Cedar for being cool with taping. Kevin Kling and Orange Mighty Trio also performed.

Twin Cities Bands on the Live Music Archive
The Live Music Archive is a FREE archive of live recordings for bands from around the world. The Archive covers several "genres" of music. I've had a hand in getting a few bands interested in participating in the project but the first local band was A Whisper in the Noise back in 2006. Themes, Charlie Parr and Trampled By Turtles all have recordings available on the Archive as well.
Most recently Roma di Luna, Kill the Vultures and City on the Make have all joined the Archive. I submitted Abzorbr and Black Blondie earlier today.
Some of the recordings currently available for download are City on the Make's May 15th set from the Varsity Theater. Both sets from Roma di Luna's August 9th appearance at Hosmer Library are available as well. My friend Dean has uploaded his capture of Roma di Luna's June 14th CD Release at the Cedar here.
Bands that are pending include: Dragons Power Up, Nomia, Ill Chemistry, Humanboy, Mouthful of Bees and Empires.
Bands I still wantto ask include: Gospel Gossip, Fat Kid Wednesdays, Ela, Crescent Moon is in Big Trouble, Eyedea & Abilities, Face Candy, Brother Ali, Happy Apple, A Night in the Box, Enemy Entropist, Iced Ink, Pretty Boy Thorson & the Fallen Angels, Sarah Johnson, Story of the Sea, The Millionth Word, Portrait of a Drowned Man (Duluth) and others TBD...
Back when I was still content with just torrenting recordings some people were kind enough to upload a couple of recordings I did for non-Twin Cities bands. Hank III's set from First Avenue June 27th 2006 can be downloaded here. Cracker's set from First Avenue on August 30th 2006 can be downloaded here.

This is the type of event that I'm glad I'm around to tape. Some dude was sitting in the Minneapolis Town Hall back in 1948 recording Lead Belly right? I wish I could've met that guy cause it's a great recording for '48. Back to present day...timeless music with a well balanced mixture of traditional folks songs and original compositions. Having seen the full band at the last handful of shows this was a rare duo performance (which is how Roma di Luna began) with Channy & Alexei playing to a crowd of 20-30 people in the basement of Hosmer Library. Hosmer is a community library located in lovely South Minneapolis, check it out. Being that it was a very intimate setting I didn't want to bust in with the standard large mic stand. Instead, I brought a mini-stand that I bought for on stage taping of instrumental performances. The mics were centered about 2' in front of them and about 4' off the ground. I'm extremely happy with the recording but it was understandably quiet to start with. I resisted the urge to crank the gain pots on the UA-5 because I knew the noise floor would be evident at some point. I wanted to bring up the levels without using compression so with the peak being at -7.4dB I first added 7dB gain. It still wasn't as full as I wanted it to be so I went back to the raw recording for another attempt. This time using Bury Me, the "loudest" song played. I Normalized just under 0dB to avoid clipping or using compression. At this point I was happy with the levels but it still remains a fairly quiet recording so on playback you'll want to turn it up a bit more than you might for say an amplified "rock" show. Included are scans of the flyer & set list.
Many thanks of course to Roma di Luna for allowing the local scene to tape them in many different settings but thanks also go to Hosmer Library for hosting such events for the community to enjoy. There are only 3 more performances left in the series this season but I have my eye on the 8/23 Spaghetti Western String Co. date. I think that could be a really great recording.
"The Hosmer Music Series is a world music performance series hosted at both the Hosmer Community Library,(347 E. 36th St.) and the Minneapolis Central Library, (Pohlad Hall, 300 Nicollet Mall, Minneapolis). This performance series is sponsored by The Friends of Minneapolis Public Library, the Lyndale Neighborhood Association, and KFAI Fresh Air Radio 90.3 FM. Concerts are free and open to the public. CD sales available. Call Hosmer Community Library at (612) 630-6950 for more information." - friendsofmpl.org
It was good hangin' with my friends Dean & Karen. These sexy MBHOs are Dean's after all.
On the Roma di Luna front there are only three more shows on the books for this year so be sure to check them out if you're in the area. They will be taking a well deserved break to welcome their first born into the world, baby Casselle is due on election day. Barack Moon Casselle has a nice ring to it if you ask me.

"ck1b source: gain on V3 reduced shortly into 1st song, 2 mild clicks can be heard, one click for each channel, volume envelope was used in wavelab to even out the level some." - Steve
The clicks mentioned are VERY minor and very quick. I included track 10 for a couple of reasons...it hasn't been played much in 08 and it gives you a taste of the other source. I think the Beyer source sounds great as well and almost included both in the same torrent but decided not to. If there is demand for a torrent of the full Beyer source just let me know...I'd be happy to hook it up. I do plan on uploading each source to the Archive (on their own) at some point in time but it might not be for a while.

Kill the Vultures have a number of fine releases out there and all are highly recommended. They've also been working on a new album so keep an eye out for that. Word was they were going to play one new song at this show but it must have been scrapped from the set list.
Oddjobs was a hip hop group formed around 1998 by Minneapolis MCs Advizer (Adam Waytz) and Crescent Moon (Alexei Casselle) and St. Paul producers/DJs Anatomy (Stephen Lewis) and Deetalx (Devon Callahan). Another MC, Nomi (Mario Demira) joined in 2001. Oddjobs split in 2005 but reformed as Kill the Vultures, minus DJ Deetalx. Advizer and Nomi are also not currently playing with Kill the Vultures. Nomi is making music as Power Struggle out in the Bay Area and Adam is in Chicago going to school.

Playing with Mel Gibson & the Pants and City on the Make. Another list of Minneapolis/St. Paul musicians that deserve way more recognition than they receive.
You've got a bunch of really talented musicians in their 20s that have probably already played in close to 20 bands combined.

I had been looking forward to this show since finding out about it sometime in May. I first stumbled across a listing for Crescent Moon is in Big Trouble on the Triple Rock calendar. That alone was enough for me to add it to my calendar...then a couple weeks later I saw that Mel Gibson & the Pants had been added to the bill. OK then, so two of my favorite local bands are playing the same show at my favorite venue...I'm there. Then sometime in early June I was scrolling down the listings at the Triple Rock's site and noticed that CITY ON THE MAKE had been added to the show. Now, it's common that one or more bands that I like or at least appreciate end up playing the same show together but it's rather rare that a bill this solid (IMHO) comes along. Crescent Moon is in Big Trouble ended up playing first per their call, MG&TP second and City on the Make threw down at the end of the night.

Check out a copy of the EP. It's one of the best releases of 2008. Some of the most talented musicians in the Twin Cities are in this band.
Much respect to the Nomad and it's staff for organizing such events and being an all around great establishment.

Well what can I say, more stellar indie rock from Minneapolis. You may know some of these fellas from the bands Houston, Manplanet, Align and Harp & Finial.
This was the Threadbare reunion show. Threadbare's first show in 10 years in honor bassist Dustin Perry's sister Stephanie Perry. Stephanie lost her battle with cancer in 2006. All proceeds from this show went to the Stephanie Perry Scholarship fund.

I had the privilege of taping the Threadbare reunion at the Triple Rock last night. It was their first show in 10 years and all proceeds went to the Stephanie Perry Scholarship fund. Amazing sets from all three bands for a truly great cause.

I chose to spend my 7/7/7 at the Triple Rock (surprised?). Much of that decision had to do with wanting to tape an indie rock band that everyone had been talking and writing about. Many others spent the night at one or more of the other 6 venues participating in 7/7/7. These venues included the Hexagon Bar, the Uptown Bar, the Nomad World Pub, Memory Lanes, the Turf Club and Big V's (2 St. Paul venues).
