“I’m Reaching Out on All Sides” by the British 70s band If is dedicated to Steve, cohost of the new Taint show “The Hidden Places.” (Progrock 4evah.) I guess the others are dedicated to everyone else. Btw, and apropos of pretty much nothing, if you’ve never read Frank Zappa’s piece from the June 1971 issue of Stereo Review, about his childhood obsession with Edgard Varèse, treat yourself. It’s great.

B.P.R.D. - 07/19/2009

Posted by Todd Morman on July 19, 2009 @ 1:31 pm | Post a comment

This week, a few dada- and jazz-inspired classical pieces from Ervin Schulhoff, Darius Milhaud and Stefan Wolpe, mostly from the 1920s, an amazing period for this kind of stuff. Schulhoff’s ‘Sonata Erotica’ is all the more hilarious for being written in 1919 - it’s a short vocal piece for a woman who whispers, giggles, coos, builds to a shrieking orgasm (twice) and then relaxes with a drink. My kinda tune. If you don’t know him, Schulhoff’s a fascinating guy - well worth a click or two.

The Hidden Places - 07/17/2009

Posted by Rachael Oehring on July 17, 2009 @ 12:00 am

The second episode of The Hidden Places, held, alternatively, at 35 Chinese Restaurant in Cary, NC and the Red Hat headquarters in Raleigh, NC, featured Ryan Sweeney from chooselocalmusic.com, a new local music initiative designed to inspire those in North Carolina to discover the artists playing in their backyard. The mix was slightly more eclectic this time around, featuring tracks from a wide variety of NC artists, and the food doubly so (just ask Rachael about the spicy beef tendon appetizer). The next episode will feature the debut of the latest EP from Schooner (www.schoonermusic.com), so tune in next week for more excellent local music!
