Michal Menert – Dreaming of a Bigger Life

Larger than life, already…

Was scouring the Pretty Lights website (www.prettylightsmusic.com) last night, in awe over the pretty design (refresh the site a few times… LOVE the random backgrounds!), when i discovered this amazing body of work under the PL Label tab.

I don’t gush very often… (ok i gush all the fucking time) but this has to be heard to be believed. Extremely fresh and engaging, this album is hopefully a sign of things to come. The world needs more music as groundbreaking as this. There is endless inspiration to be found in here.

SeventhSwami @ Temple SF this Sunday Night @ 9pm

Yuri’s Night (this Saturday)

Yuri’s Night is BACK! It’s the annual party at NASA AMES in honor of the anniversary of humanity’s first visit to space… Large scale art installations, science and technology demonstrations, historic aircraft and four stages of music await you. This year’s lineup is particularly epic, consisting of Les Claypool, N.E.R.D., The Black Keys, Common, DJ Q-Bert, Beats Antique, Vibesquad, The Glitch Mob, and many other modern aural miracles.

And I will also be out there from noon-midnight with the people from LoveTechSF, helping to demo electronic music performance and production techniques in one of the hangars… so if you have any interest in learning that stuff, we will have a “hippie genius bar” for your edification.

SeventhSwami @ LoveTech (02-27-10)

I am thrilled to announce that i will be playing at the LoveTech SF on February 27th!

The LoveTech peeps challenged me to bring my A-game to this one, so I’ll be delivering a a crafty selection of my latest productions, and serving it to you on a silver platter. And by that i mean “in full live-PA trim.” Seven channels of all-original material, mixed live, straight from my heart to yours…

If you catch one Swami set this year, this should be the one. Not only do you get an earful of whatever i got going, you get to experience Pance Party, Ample Mammal and Rich DDT (and celebrate Rich’s birthday!), enjoy some of Il Pirata’s great eats, and experience the LearnTech PlayShops … a chance to interact and discuss music  technology with the musicians and tech-artisans themselves.
