Download: Butchy Fuego’s ‘Sabor Tropical’ Mixtape (Exclusive!)
We asked producer and Pit Er Pat drummer Butchy Fuego to make us a mix to go with his interview, and he gave us this wild beast!
Greetings friends of L.A. RECORD! This is Butchy Fuego, a recent transplant to L.A. I cooked up this [...]
Keith Musil and Alexandra Hope collaborated on a music video for Hecuba’s “La Musica,” off the group’s most recent album, Paradise.
Twin kitties received instruction from Hope on capturing Isabelle Albuquerque’s dance moves and added their own feline twist. Perhaps Albuquerque will adopt the “lick your nose” step. This isn’t just a coupla cats dancing. Details [...]
On this night, Hecuba summoned to Hotel Cafe with tales about food and babes in Estonia, and a super intriguing music video by El Perro Del Mar starring two overly-tan strong men who call themselves The Golden Power. The men lift each other like magnets, often moving very slowly, trailing sparkles. The song, “Change Of Heart,” showcases El Perro Del Mar’s best features: relaxed, classy, romantic vocals and a stylish moonlit mood. Despite the title, all the songs Sarah Assbring wrote for album Love Is Not Pop sound a lot like “love pop.” Living for love, sacrificing for love, love for breakfast, love for dinner, lovey love love—
This video is one of the coolest things ever. EVER! Don’t disagree. Disregard your preconceptions about men with spray tans and no body hair, and allow yourself to marvel at the wonders of the human form’s power without prejudice. Hecuba sent us the above video for El Perro Del Mar’s song “Change Of Heart.” They’re [...]
Even in a jumpsuit with enough pockets for the apocalypse, no one is fully equipped for this weekend. People will lose flutes in teepees and see alligators in guitar-neck shadows chomping on the heads of musicians; and emerge from Pioneertown alleys on Sunday morning without pants.
Finding the teepee involved receiving intentionally vague directions from two groups of kids, navigating a sudden neighborhood with way too many lawn ornaments, and sneaking into someone’s backyard via a labyrinthine system of wooden gates I opened by tugging on bits of fishing wire tied into little loops. Inside the teepee we found Matt as well as Ed Sharpe (“Has anyone seen my metal flute?!! Who took my magical flute?!”) and a pack of orgasmic chickies in face paint.
On the night of the show, Perhacs greeted Redcat smiling. “In the spirit of the ‘70s, we’re going to have a very special night,” she said, smoothing her purple dress. For the first performance ever of her music, her 1970 album Parallelograms was presented in its entirety by Dublab-selected guest bands.
Linda Perhacs sees colors. The psychedelic nature of reality follows her around and tugs at her pant leg for attention. On Parallelograms, her psychedelic gem from 1970, she captured the waveforms of color through sound, and now she’s been called back to REDCAT with Dublab and some of the most wonderful weirdos making music today—for her first live performance ever. This interview by Daiana Feuer.
