Sioux City Pete & the Beggars w/ The Crystelles at IndieArts Fest, July 18

2009-07-06T00:00:00.005-04:00

From Seattle by way of Iowa, Sioux City Pete and the Beggars channel the spirit of Delta Blues and the vitality of classic rock through a dark, dark sheen. With influences ranging from Howlin' Wolf to the Marquis de Sade, these bandmates have since 2002 released three full-length LPs with titles such as Sodomy & Failure and Pedophilia. Their most recent recording, 2006's Necro Blues (Steel Cage Records), finds Sioux City Pete and bandmates Amanda Prince, Lexi Lutter and Joe Ross at their most atavistic. This summer, between dates in Charlotte and Chicago, the band stops in Providence for the 2nd Annual IndieArts Fest on July 18 in the Greater Kennedy Plaza.

IndieArts Fest attendees can experience Sioux City Pete and the Beggars on the Main Stage at the Bank of America Skating Center from 6:30 to 7:20pm. At 7:30pm, they'll find the Beggars' tourmates, the Crystelles, on the Fringe Stage at Burnside Park.

Hailing from Long Beach, CA, the Crystelles are Zara Kand on drums, Troy on bass, and Gitane DeMone on vocals and guitar. DeMone, a veteran of underground music, has recently released a two-disc DVD called Life After Death that celebrates her career from its start in the mid-'80s as a member of Christian Death to her work today as a solo artist. DeMone plays with her daughter Zara in The Crystelles, whose IndieArts Fest set lasts from 7:30 to 8:30pm.

DJ Dublin & Nick de Paris at IndieArts Fest, July 18

2009-07-04T00:00:00.005-04:00

DJ Dublin first began to spin back in the early 90’s as a way to listen to the old school funk and rare groove jazz that he and friends had found while on excursions to NYC. But, it wasn’t until he discovered downtempo electronica and dub that he decided to get serious about djing. Soon after he cofounded a weekly party (Dubset), where he spun everything from downtempo to house and drum & bass all with a dubbed out vibe. While getting the dance floor jumping, his love and passion for deep underground house took over and he has never looked back. Influenced by tracks from artists such as Masters at Work, Todd Terry, and Mateo and Matos, Dublin’s sets are always rooted in the deep house sounds of NY. Over the past 10 years, Dublin has played at numerous venues throughout New England and beyond, including residencies at Digital Soul, Providence’s longest running house weekly (5 years strong!), Cozy Lounge at the Red Room, and Jump w/ the Afrosonic Collective. Most recently, Dublin has joined pressure radio to host Soul Teknology, a weekly live show.

IndieArts Fest attendees can catch DJ Dublin with Nick de Paris on July 18 at the Red Bull Music Academy Tunnel in Burnside Park from 8:15 to 10:00 PM. Nick de Paris, also of the Afrosonic Collective, is from New York via (of course) Paris, where he performed before starting new nights such as Paris Grooves and Fiesta Elektronica here in Providence and appearing on WERS radio in Boston. A graphic designer by day, Nick DJs around Providence at night with residencies at Tazza and Local 121. A regular on Pressureradio.com, Nick spins genres of house music ranging from funky French and Jackin house to the deep and soulful sounds played at AfroSonic.

While you wait for July 18 to come around, you can visit the Myspaces of Nick de Paris, DJ Dublin, and the Afrosonic Collective. You can also find DJ Dublin on Facebook.

Barn Burning at IndieArts Fest, July 18

2009-07-03T10:06:00.000-04:00

Barn Burning is the bastard child of singer songwriter Anthony Loffredio. Some members of the band are long standing, others sit in occasionally -- but be it a solo or a six piece act, Barn Burning generally works as a vehicle for Loffredio's songwriting. Their music has been labeled as "dark and tettering Americana" (Americana UK), "way ahead of your average alt-country combo" (Harp Magazine), and "sparse and rich [and] nomadic and unique" (Losing Today). Barn Burning have been around for about six years and has toured the country over the past five as either a duo, solo, or a full band act opening for such notables as Richard Buckner, Andrew Bird, American Music Club, Magnolia Electric Co., Centro-Matic, Horse Feathers, Willard Grant Conspiracy, and Josh Ritter, to name a few.

IndieArts Fest attendees can see Barn Burning on the Fringe Stage at Burnside Park from 1:00 to 2:00 pm on July 18. In the meantime, they can visit the band's website and Myspace for more music, videos, and information.

Providence Roller Derbys Candy Land Massacre!

2009-07-02T10:56:00.002-04:00

The Mob Squad vs. Sakonnet River Roller Rats in Downtown Providence

Last month, after a fair fight and a fair-weather flood 2008 champions, the Old Money Honeys defeated the Mob Squad 98 to 75. On July 17^th, 2009 the Mob Squad will skate again to take on the Sakonnet River Roller Rats at the Bank of America Skating Arena in Kennedy Plaza in July’s biggest rage race, Candy Land Massacre!

After their defeat, the Mob Squad will try to prey on the sneaky, squeaky and stealthy Rats. Even with a 22 point deficit against the Old Money Honeys, the Mob Squad saw vital skating by veteran Jetta von Diesel and Providence Roller Derby’s newest Mobster, Bleeding Rainbow. Despite their defeat Rhode Kill has trained some of the meanest most vile creatures ever to put on skates. Her rookies, Axe A. Dental, Hit and Run Paulene, Penny Candy Poison, Rose Creeper and Vicious Stylz proved to be integral to the Mob’s artful plan. Meanwhile, with not a win in their furry little paws since 2007, Craisy Dukes will lead the 2009 Rats to challenge the Mob. New to this group of rat ninjas are, Hellcat Lucy, Hot Apple Cry, Maul E. Crue, Shamblock, Slamarella and Crue Hella DaKill. After taking a season off to tend to knee injuries Hotsauce is finally back and skating for the Rats. The Rats have also put a trick up their sleeve, having absconded with mobster Malady D’Amour; this bout will prove to be anyones game.

Come see this exciting new pack of Rats as they take on the legendary Mob Squad. Enjoy all the Providence Roller Derby has to offer including “Off the Ground”, performing during half time and DJ’s Breezee and the Count spinning all that makes these roller derby queens go ‘round!

Doors open at 7pm and the action begins at 8pm; go to www.BrownPaperTickets.com to get $10 presale tickets or $12 tickets at the door. As always children 5-12yrs. Old are half price!

Keep Me Conscious at IndieArts Fest - July 18

2009-07-02T00:00:00.003-04:00

Keep Me Conscious (Boston, MA) has created a distinct brand of modern rock. Break through the surface of infectious melody and you’ll find soaring guitar riffs complimented by chest-stomping bass and crushing drum work. With hints of ambience, pop and even metal, the band has steered their sound to break through the glaciers in the cold sea of modern music. Having released their first EP, Sounds of Rescue, this past April, Keep Me Conscious will be coming to the 2nd Annual IndieArts Fest on July 18.

"When we started writing for Keep Me Conscious," writes bassist Maty Vamp, "we were learning more about each other and ourselves than our very own instruments. Though it would be a bit predictable and quite the understatement to say that we love writing music, it’s the truth. Our main objective is that in its simplest form – create music that we love and believe in."

IndieArts Fest attendees can find Keep Me Conscious on the Main Stage at the Bank of America Skating Center from 3:00 to 4:00 pm. In the meantime, they can listen to the band at their Myspace.

SUSU at IndieArts Fest - July 18

2009-07-01T00:00:00.003-04:00

Brooklyn noise rock trio Susu are part of a noise rock continuum with roots that stretch all the way back into pioneering '60s freaks like Captain Beefheart, the Velvet Underground and the Godz, through the Fall in the UK and Sonic Youth in the US, and from there into '90 acts like Unwound, Helium and Tsunami and thence into the contemporary likes of Deerhoof. Guitarist Andrea Havis and bassist Michael Gabry favor both non-standard tunings and physically aggressive performances both vocally and instrumentally, over drums that ride the fine line between free jazz and utter chaos. Susu began as a more standard post-hardcore band called Surgery Sunday, which also included drummer Justin Bilicki and two other guitarists. As Andrea Havis and Gabry took control of the band's musical direction, the band slimmed down to the trio of themselves and Bilicki and shortened their name from Surgery Sunday to the equally meaningless but more lyrical Susu. Working with producer Martin Bisi, a key figure from the New York avant garde scene of the 1980s that's one of Susu's key musical touchstones, the trio recorded their self-titled debut in 2006. Following its release, Bilicki was replaced by Oliver Riviera Drew for the band's second set, the 2008 EP Win. Win was released both as a six track digital download and as a limited edition three track vinyl EP, bypassing CD formats entirely.

Here is Susu's music video for "Sawtooth," from their self-titled debut:

IndieArts Fest attendees can find Susu on the Fringe Stage at Burnside Park from 9:30 to 10:30 pm. In the meantime, you can listen to them at their Myspace, find them on Facebook, or visit their website for more information.

Deconstructing Craft Construction

2009-06-30T10:19:00.009-04:00

As I peruse teh interwebs in search of new crafting ideas, I've stumbled across some patterns in the types of motifs used on various indie crafting portals and blogs. So, today I'll guide you through the four most common types of crafting imagery. The list is far from exhaustive, but provides interesting insight into the pluralistic way in which crafting has been appropriated by different (predominantly female) cultural groups.

1. The Unabashedly Cute
A lot of the sites I find are, well, adorable. They unashamedly play up the feminine in their imagery, and in the crafts they showcase. I don't want to sound disparaging at all, because I've drawn a lot of inspiration from sites of this nature. But I am curious as to why young women's crafting sites seem to promote very similar types of work: earthy scarves, floral motifs, amigurimi creatures with large, pleading eyes and rosy cheeks. Is it ironic? Is it twee? Is it anti-feminist? Or is it just, well, what it is: a sub-set of inspired crafters who happen to be drawn to soft edges, gauze, and shy smiles?

Ana Paula is one of my favorite pattern designers and amigurumi artists. In the spirit of the unabashedly cute, her blog is called Amigurumi Patterns & Random Cuteness.

2. The Ironically Cute
These are the sites that toy with the imagery of the domestic 1950s homemaker. These crafting portals use pictures of, say, women in knee-length dresses and rocket-cone brasseries wielding vacuum cleaners. But there's always a twist. Craftster is an online handicrafts community, and its logo features two young girls sipping tea underneath the slogan "No Tea Cozies without Irony." I've wondered about this Mad Men-esque fetishizing of the 1950s. Is it due to a fascination with the tensions of a decade characterized by underlying skillfully-hidden sexual debauchery? Is it an exercise in cultural reappropriation? In other words, if a thoroughly "modern" and empowered woman can take the images from a decade notorious for its objectification of women and transform them into symbols of self-sufficiency, is that the ultimate mark of triumph over old ways of gendered oppression? Or am I just overthinking this (as usual)?
3. The Alternative
The really bad-ass cousin of the aforementioned. Alternative crafters don't strive for cute, so much as sex, drugs, & rock 'n' roll... with fabric! The feigned docility is thrown out the window in favor of a more deviant attitude: "Don't fuck with me; I'll stab you in the eye with my sewing needle!" These crafters try to stay on the cutting edge of design and ideology, combining avant-garde designs with forward-looking, sex-positive attitudes about gender and the body. Take this cover from the most recent issue of The Modern Seamster (notice the gender neutrality in the name; it's not "The Modern Seamstress"):
Or this bedazzled, felted tampon:

4. The Gothic
Perhaps one of the most mysterious and least visible of the crafting subcultures (or maybe it's just been too long since my middle school goth days). These crafters favor Victorian imagery, the dystopian black-and-white sketches of independent graphic novelists, vaguely spiritual, yonic-Wicca symbols, and the occult. Typical designs include lacy chokers and flowery maiden's headdresses. Crafting is a means of supporting an alternate reality of art and dark, earthy spirituality-- the trappings of which can't be found in mainstream consumer outlets. And the act of creation itself part of the romantic, neo-romantic spirit of the subculture. Much in the same way that the political spectrum curves to meet itself at the far left and right endpoints, one could conceivably argue that the gothic wraps around to meet the the unabashedly cute somewhere in the middle: they share a mutual emphasis on (albeit diverging) interpretations of the feminine and gender performance.

This is taken from the most recent issue of the AntiCraft, a goth-inspired craftzine.

Like I said, my goal here is not to be reductionistic in any way, but instead to highlight the shining diversity of the modern indie crafting culture.

Until next time...

On a Post-Hipster Consensus

2009-06-20T16:53:00.004-04:00

I have been noticeably tardy with posts despite being added to this blog a good month ago. A combination of poor summer timing, on-again-off-again travel arrangements and a new apartment have cunningly conspired to give me ample non-writing excuses. But no more! Back in Providence, I shall hopefully be balancing cultural commentary and sex columns...

---

One of the defining hallmarks of a hipster is the denial of the hipster identity. To be able to conform to any single identity seems to be a betrayal of the hipster ideal and the search for an authentic culture. Hipsters crave authenticity because for the longest time, the pre-hipster demographic believed themselves starved of a semblance of authentic culture. They knew they were rebelling against something - society, culture, identities, whatever it is someone young does not want to be a part of - but it gets so much harder to know what one stands for.

So the endless ironic appropriation - the working class hallmarks, of PBR, the sudden appreciation of flannel and 'ugly' sweaters, love of the 80s - all contributing towards a sense of what one is through what one is not. An identity, an authentic hipster, via Occam's Razor.

And within that, denial of the hipster within. It's practically zen.

Into that void steps the post-hipster. It's fine and well to be moppy and ironic about a set of standards that through the dissemination of gossipy trust-funders who flit in and out of Brooklyn to the more bastardized marketing of Urban Outfitters and American Apparel, a sense of hipster identity has been created. The 'hipster', for better or worse, can be identified. Fellow hipsters congregate, wordlessly but drifting with a deep psychic connection, with thin cigarettes dangling out of the corners of their pursed lips while other Normals point, stare and mumble/laugh under their breaths: "look at this fucking hipster".

The post-hipster recognizes this and like the young grasshopper accepts the way things are. The post-hipster is, for all intents and purposes, a hipster. Witness the scarves in summer and the ball/soul-crushingly tight pants. However, the post-hipster strips away the irony. There is no need now to distance oneself from labels and tags - the authenticity that the hipsters have long sought to develop by douche-ily appropriating the 'real' from the parole of other 'authentic' cultures and adopting them ironically has been, paradoxically, reinvented as a sort of authentic identity. Believe or not, some people actually do enjoy the aesthetic of the Brooklyn set and want to party like Lady Gaga's 'Just Dance' music video - for the sheer sake of it. There is no more irony because the nirvana of the real authenticity has been created.

The hipster look and lifestyle is not just a mish-mash of other styles being cannibalized by ex-prep school types; it has been subtly reinvented and reinvigorated through the continuous wringer of fashion and tastes. All the irony that has been invested into this damn foolish pretend stuff has been washed out and all that's left is some sort of light humor. Perhaps in a way, this hipster end product is not the authenticity that the original irony-peddling set tried to create but it is still in a way a sort of creative culture.

So the post-hipster can be proud to self-identify. It's not just some dopey imitation wrestled off an Urban Outfitter's catalogue, but a true appreciation of what the jaundiced early 2000s has created.
