BUON GIORNO LUAMADA

Igor Andrade is Buon Giorno Luamada. According to São Paulo dudes Perdizes Dream, guy is "a 21 years-old cinema student from Rio de Janeiro" whose first full-length drops in early December on their label (EDIT: Official release date December 3).

Julian Lynch is appropriately found in Buon Giorno Luamada's Top Myspace Friends, appropriate cos the first song there is "Cartographie," a lazily swirling gem whose pace and overall production values very much so resemble the "Basement Jam" track Julian got me for the last FBC compilation. Pulsating n humming. Way perfect autumn clouds music.

P.S. Here's the album art:

SPECULATOR

Here's a couple new Speculator jams from the upcoming split with Luke Perry on Wet Merchants. Totally dusty Orange Julius grooves. Wishin it was summertime. Wishin I had a top to drop.

RIFTS

Last summer I heard Oneohtrix Point Never's Zones Without People album after meeting Daniel Lopatin at a show. Next week No Fun Productions will release Rifts, a 2CD set of his first three albums all smashed together, with Zones Without People sandwiched between Betrayed in the Octagon and Russian Mind.

Ice-cold synth tones shift through cavernous progressions and pile onto each other to create some imagined laser-world, very much like our own. Water flows upstream, massive cliffs overlook murderous seas, huge outgrowths of vegetation thrive where wave meets coast. The jungle runs deep, paths are beaten into the floor where generations tread decades earlier.

However, with such a glossy and streamlined physiology, focal points blend, visions get confused. Luckily, we are frequently reminded that this virtual world retreats when we stand up from our computer and face the air. What we thought was canopies and coconuts was just a complex patchwork of lasers, a modern-day mirage. Eventually electronics malfunction and short and, like the Wizard of Oz for example, reality reveals itself.

I really enjoy this whole album. It doesn't beg you to do anything. It lets you go on. Supreme deep-sleep material. Check out some samples from Zones Without People HERE and completely take off into stratosphere-mode with "Physical Memories" HERE. Looks like you can BUY IT HERE.

P.P.S. Check out this rad set Lopatin did for Rare Frequency over the summer.

SO DREAMY

Last week Ryan Howe a.k.a. Luke Perry combined forces with James Ferraro, Eric Copeland and Infinity Window to bring Death By Audio what was assuredly a warped, chromed-out experience. I wasn't there, but according to some eye-witnesses I have the sense that I'm right.

Today Pixelhorse provides some video from that night of Luke Perry's set, which was actually his duo dANA playing half dANA songs, half Luke Perry songs. The product is a scorched six minutes of Kraut-y repetitions and carnival loops, not unlike the extended jams on Luke Perry's cassette-turned-CDR Midnight Perry.

Lookout for his split with Friendship Bracelet favorites Speculator out sometime soon. Until then, check out this excerpt from the first side of Midnight Perry, some constant Remain In Light strum over alien abduction X-Files whistles.
