I told a few people that the Wye Oak set from Sonar last night would show up here, but that’s been changed. The live audio from that fantastic set can now be listened/downloaded at Aural States.

Aural States also has a new Wye Oak video for Please Concrete (linked from Pitchfork, I think).

Jesus in Disguise is Mick Short (Heroin UK, The Wire Orchestra), DJ Tyler Quinn is from The Wire Orchestra and The Expanding Man, and the Newagehillbilly is Alex Strama (Heroin UK, The Wire Orchestra).

Excellent set marred by terrible show management: this set was the last of four for the night and while all other bands had a minimal of thirty minutes to play, all that was left for this great pairing was 13 minutes. Hopefully Mick and Tyler will get together for a make up show (I think they owe us another set to make up for this debacle).

arrington.jpg

Arrington de Dionyso is a member of Old Time Relijun, from Portland, OR. Touring as a solo act (with The Evolutionary Jass Band, look for their recording here in a few days), Arrington plays an assortment of instruments, including the bass clarinet and shruti box. He also plays homemade instruments, including among them is aluminum foil (either wrapped around his sax, at his feet, wrapped around a hand-held horn or stretched across his face). There’s really no talking in the set, though there are chants and Arrington does incorporate his mouthly talents with the foil and a snare drum.

The show was sparsely attended (it was a Monday night after all), though I doubt any of those who attended left disappointed (although I thought his set was a bit short for a headliner). Arrington had already played Baltimore’s High Zero Festival (Baltimore City Paper’s Best of Baltimore-Best Festival 2008) earlier that weekend, which might explain the lower turnout for a true innovative performance. No matter, I really enjoyed the set and look forward to catching Arrington again, either solo or with the full band.

Note about the recording: the audio recording is pretty good, though the set was performed on the floor in front of the stage without the PA, so some parts are alot quieter than others. In addition, the noise from the house air conditioner is very evident in the far background. In addition, the rustling sound heard pretty much throughout is the result of the aluminum foil.
