Okay. So, like... all I had to do was unplug and re-plug in the modem to make it work. Heh. Oops.

Catching up on my Message Centre now, but my notes are currently out-of-control, hah. Which is a good thing, mind... can't wait to go through all the Daily Deviation suggestions and start allocating them. I miss featuring artwork. :<


Last night I headed into Brooklyn to see The American Dollar along with Praveen. The latter I had never heard before, but I was pleasantly surprised.

For those of you who don't know, The American Dollar is an experimental instrumental duo from Queens, New York who dive into some really interesting and amazing soundscapes. The same can be said for Praveen, only he relied more on visual stimuli; intense would only scratch the surface.

The venue was a little joint called Monkeytown. It looks like a little abandoned building from the outside, but don't let that fool you. They performed in the back room, which was set up with long (comfortable!) couches running along the walls and huge projection screens set up on every wall (Facebook album of the set).

They played right in the middle of the room, which made for a really incredible sight. I've never been to anything like it before, and I'm so happy I went, even though it was a Monday night, hah.

If you're into post-rock experimental instrumental/light vocals, I definitely recommend both.


Okay, back to reading notes. :>
