When technical problems knocked out the sound in the room after just a few songs, the D.J., Amrit Singh of the indie-rock blog Stereogum (stereogum.com), began playing Fleetwood Mac’s “Dreams,” while Ms. Estella and Mr. Cardona sang along, taking the indignity in stride. At the end of the show, after “Lady Daydream,” Mr. Singh played the song again, and while the rest of the band walked off stage, Ms. Estella swayed and sang along. “You should all stay ’cause I want to dance,” she said. “We’re going to make it so much hotter in here.
The NYTimes, memorializing my favorite moment(s) DJing Twin Sister’s excellent album-release show at Glasslands 5/27. Eventually we did turn it into a dance party — thanks to those who came and kept the floor going ‘til 4AM. Also, thanks to Fleetwood Mac for making memories from a fuse blown by a badly needed (and badly wired) air conditioner. Maybe I’ll post my playlist later (feat. the Cramps, Prince, Boards Of Canada, Kraftwerk, CAN, Unrest, Built To Spill, the Replacements, Weezer, Archers Of Loaf, The Sugarcubes, Sunny Day, Aimee Mann, Peter Gabriel, Four Tet, Dilla, Javelin, Mika Miko, Tortoise, Robyn, Modern Lovers, The-Dream, Dinosaur Jr, Modeselektor, Cyndi Lauper, Liz Phair, Gang Gang Dance, Tune-Yards, Aphex Twin, Boredoms, Delorean, ESG, Frankie Knuckles, many et ceteras). -
I’m DJing the Twin Sister EP release show tomorrow night at Glasslands. (I promise to spin hits, if the charts were owned only by the bands that we love.) Doors at 9, which is also when the open vodka bar starts. I’ve managed to see Twin Sister something seven times since first hearing their Vampires Dreaming With Kids EP. Color Your Life, the six-song set they’re releasing, is a significant step up (see: “All Around And Away We Go”). They sound (and look) great in that room. There’s a cute flyer and everything. I’m trying to find a reason you shouldn’t come, but there isn’t one.
