Scantily Clad - Two



Scantily Clad recently completed their second release which is now available. My good friend Preston (Hungrier) along with awesome dude, Greg Manata, out did themselves on this one. Not only musically, but also with the layout and packaging. I just got my copies in the mail and I'm beyond impressed.
I contributed to the last track, Kitten Claw. This release is limited to 100 so get them while you still can. Its sure to sell out, as did the last one.

Email Preston at cavemansalad@gmail.com to order.

Pamela Z

Pamela Z is a fixture at most of the bay areas avant garde events. She not only attends most of them, she performs in many as well. I have seen her perform a few times, most recently at the chapel of chimes this past Sunday. Its always a pleasure. Her style is unique and most certainly an extension of her personality which is outgoing to say the least. Rather then try to describe her music Ill show you. Below is a video of her piece, The Pendulum. Since it isn't blatantly obvious from the video Ill just mention that the hand motions you see her doing are controlling this small box which is some sort of midi control box. Watching her use it is similar to seeing someone play a theremin but more elaborate.

Ikue Mori



One of the pioneers of laptop electronics, Ikue Mori has been breaking new ground on the musical frontier for three decades. From her early days in the landmark No Wave band DNA, to her years as a regular in the downtown improvisation community and more recently as one of the epicenters of the international laptop electronic scene, Ikue has become an underground hero—yet her work is still sorely underappreciated. This newest solo CD features Ikue’s idiosyncratic take on contemporary dance rhythms and electronica. Fascinating ambient textures, detailed improvisations and pulsing hypnotic rhythms clash and combine in this complex and charismatic electronic masterpiece.

Released on Tzadik's Key Series
