White Williams
Cleveland native, White Williams, crafts experimental electronica without a shred of self-consciousness. His music borrows liberally from the conventional structures of pure pop, but is messed up with glitchy instrumentation and swirling guitar lines. Interestingly, Spin Magazine once noted that listening to the ‘ambiguous and oft awkward synth pop’ of White Williams leaves you unsure whether ‘you should be dancing to it or laying in the grass’. [see also Patrick Wolf]
Listen to the White Williams track, New Violence.

If you’re a sucker for good strong figurative work with a flair for the unexpected, you’ll like the work of New York illustrator, Michael Camarra for sure. I’ve known Camarra since our days back at Pratt, when he still painted with a brush and a tube of paint. Now that Camarra has moved on up into the realm of digital painting, I’m amazed at how, incredibly, the digital paintings lose almost none of the raw spontaneity his traditional paintings possessed but instead introduce a somewhat cleaner edge overall, which lends itself to his cleaner graphic sensibilities.

Last weekend I went to the Golden West in Baltimore to check out the What Cheer? Brigade, a marching band from Providence. I wasn’t expecting much, but when they opened with a cover of Slayer’s Raining Blood, my knees buckled. I think I could hear a musak version of that riff, and I’d still bang my head. The rest of the band’s set was just as riotous, with people dancing so hard, you’d think we were at Mardi Gras. I haven’t had that much fun at a show in ages.
