Was very happy to catch Cassettes Won’t Listen<\/strong> live as I have been addicted to all his catchy remixes. I found him through his compelling remix of Midlake\u2019s<\/strong> \u201cYoung Bride\u201d. I was surprised to find out that this \u201cband\u201d is actually the singular workings of Jason Drake. CWL’s most recent endeavor has been writing, producing and remixing some of the coolest current indie songs. His live show was enjoyable and wasn\u2019t just Jason pushing play on his labtop. He incorporated live instruments and even invited some of the musicians to perform the remixes live. It was quite a treat to have Tim of The Diggs<\/b> play a rocking version of \u201cEveryone\u2019s Starting Over\u201d.<\/p>\n The Foundry Field Recordings<\/strong> were on next and they played some feed\u2013backy shoe gaze music. Some nice melodies and well crafted song structures.<\/p>\n But the buzz was around New York\u2019s own Apes & Androids<\/strong>. The band is only a few months old but they easily packed Sin-e to play their absurd rock opera music. These guys combine Queen, Bowie, Trans Am and Tron into 1 exciting set of music. The show started with this enormous statue of a skeleton that had evil red blinking eyes. Halfway through the set they had some fans take the arms of the skeleton and go into the crowd to envelop us. Although the band played cheesy electronic glam rock, they did so with expert craft and perfect harmonies. Soon the lights went out, the eyes lit up and the band threw glow-in-the-dark beach balls into the crowd. It was such a surreal night. This was the most FUN I have ever had a concert. Words and pictures can not describe what occurred at Sin-e that night, so here are some other people are saying.<\/p>\n “I’m fairly sure these guys could incite riots at will. But not those violent, punk-infused brawls of our past; the sheer joyfulness of Apes and Androids’ massive danceable madness would likely result in something different. Maybe a cross between Saturday Night Fever and a Sex Pistols gig.”<\/em> -Jeff Shreve, Stylus Magazine<\/p>\n My pictures of the show<\/a>. (before my batteries ran out on my camera!
