Animal show!
Wave Farm
5622 Route 23
Acra, New York 12405
Artists performing works on the theme of "Animals." Curated by Slink Moss.
A portion of the proceeds goes to Animal Kind.
Audio and video streamed live on free103point9 Online Radio.
Performers confirmed so far:
Evolution Revolution: From Albany Times Union: "Led by the one and only reel-to-reel tape manipulator Jason Martin, the band not only sings Martin's quirky fauna-friendly anthems, but the floating membership of musicians also regularly performs in animal costumes, too."
Dan Saxton Bunny From Justin Stewart review in The Wire of Bunny Brains set at "Campfire Sounds 2006" at Wave Farm: "Beefheart disciples...feral freak-act...head-scratching mindfuck circus show."
Latitude/Longitude: Brooklyn-based free103point9 Transmission Artists Michael Garofalo and Patrick McCarthy began performing as Latitude/Longitude in 2004. Teasing melodies out of prepared and alternately tuned guitars while electronics murmur in a nest of instrument cables at their feet, the duo weave electro-acoustic dream songs from cross-circuit chaos.
S.M.O. (Slink Moss Orchestra) From Mark Guarino, Daily Herald: "Moss is an enigma, with a persona more in line with voodoo wildman Screamin' Jay Hawkins and T. Rex.... Vocally, Moss is Buddy Holly without the hiccups."
Guitar Trips: From Mike Wood in foxy digitalis: "Guitar Trips is New Yorker Doug Anson, who makes a joyful solo noise on his axe, creating bluesy, trippy sound loops with plenty of sonic paths to follow. The lo-fi, recorded in a bedroom feel adds to the richness, as if this is a series of improvs done quietly, out of sight and only for self-satisfaction."
Flaming Fire: “Well, at least some of the kooks have stuck it out in New York City and they are in Flaming Fire, an awesomely kooky, theatrical band singing songs of biblical plagues and Egyptian sexual practices. Picture the Butthole Surfers, the Residents, the Manson Family, and the B-52s all running amok in a Kenneth Anger film.” -Meg Sneed, Vice.
Animental: Animental is an outlet for expression in its purest form, drawing inspiration from animals. Animental explores the ideas of innate reactions and behavior of animals vs. the programmed or acceptable actions of the human animal. It hopes to empower the individual who is performing as well as transport the audience to another realm of reality. Inspiration, freedom, hope, creativity, individuality, power, and feminism are things Animental hopes to transpire. We use sound, costumes, movement, storytelling, props, lights and what ever else the participants and performers bring.
Melanie Moser: "Adult contemporary psych."

Cabinet of Natural Curiosities: (from Terrascope) Created by Jasmine Dreame Wagner, the album inhabits the wyrd side of the folk spectrum... a blend of gentle voice, acoustic instruments and strange electronic sounds, a blend beautifully realised on ..Sailing Seasick.., the song lurching and rolling on its strange journey. One of the many strong points of the album is the mesmerising voice, sounding not unlike Sharron Krause, or maybe her weird kid sister, the one that lives in the attic making unearthly noises far into the night. http://www.cabinetofnaturalcuriosities.com
