Man The Hunter


Bringing back great song structure to the lo-fi pop gem, fellow Ann Arborite Man The Hunter has done it oh too well.  Each verse/pre-chorus/chorus/bridge/etc seems to be just as catchy as the rest of the song....so yeah, this one's a keeper.

I know it's getting chilly out here in Michigan, but if you can rough it, grab some sunglasses and a swimsuit  and take this one to the beach.

Meftah, Drugstore Remedy, Amateur Anthropologist, Mellows @ Tanya's

BIG UPS TO TANYA FOR GETTN THIS TOGETHER! All acts were ILL.

The night started out with the funky fat beats of Andrew Meftah. His myspace has a modest collection of spaceage-Dilla-G Funk bangers. Live set was great (the dude has some SICK freestyle chops). FUNKY FRESH




Next was Drugstore Remedy--a psychadelic synth jam outfit. Although the recording quality isn't professional, the myspace has some jams on it to give you a flavor of their style. That being said, the recordings don't hold a candle to their impromptu live set. Can you say FLUID FRESH??





Amateur Anthropologist had a really high energy show! They said this was their first basement party--I'd say it was one of their best performances that I've seen. I still have "The Ocean" stuck in my head. Peep their myspace, get their new album and buy a t-shirt or three! We fucking love these guys. And they really got the place BUMPIN!!!!!







Mellows' played their hearts out. They ended the night perfectly. Check their myspace to grab their free demo EP. They're scheduled to begin recording their first LP next week.

Tyvek and Explode into Colors at Yellow Barn show was--

--k to the iller. I really dug Tyvek's DIY punk sound.





Explode into Colors' lead singer--albeit cranky and foulmouthed as ever--had the whole place funkin down. Multi instrumentalist/percussionist was really talented... hell, they all were!











SWEET JAMS TO BE HAD. BIG UPS ALL AROUND
