Truman Peyote Live
Becoming Real Live
-----------------------------------------
Truman Peyote
Truman Peyote started as an experimental band in 2007 gathering pedals, drum machines and whatever else they could get their hands on just to make SOUNDS. Still with no intention of engaging in traditional song writing they have improvised shows, sold out EP's and received a mass of great reviews along the way. We can't wait to see what they do next.
"The 21st century is beautiful and its name is Truman Peyote. On their recent release, Light-Lightning, two guys from Jamaica Plains, Massachusetts have created a sound that so successfully melds the textural possibilities of the digital and analog, of samples, founds sounds, and live instrumentation, that the album is less like a hybrid and more like a brand new species." - QRO Mag
"Truman Peyote accomplish an incredibly rare feat in the song: they manage to make the kind of lomography rock that's all the rage right now sound muscular and purposeful." - No Gene
Many Mansions
The Many Mansions project has many different faces and has evolved greatly since its inception as a lo-fi noise tape recorded on four-track cassette. Most recently, performances have been dance oriented, blending the repetitiveness of trance, the feel-good vibrations of tropicalia and the mind-bending aspects of psychedelia.
"The kind of party that will make your mind vaporize into a den of bobbing movements and involuntary motion." - Daytrotter
"Like Steve Reich doing the tropical boogie." - 20jazzfunkgreats
"A rapturous, vibe-filled wonderland," - Boston's Weekly Dig
"Deep space jungle visions" - Friendship Bracelet
Becoming Real
Becoming Real is a young producer who is channeling his very own post-apocalyptic vision of London. His self-termed Ghost-Step soundscapes are as much influenced by abstract concepts of the future as they are by luminaries such as Zomby and are as much informed by the homemade K Records aesthetic as they are by the world’s recent obsession with dubstep. Charged with future-dread, this is music for seas drowned in oil, tar-coated forest landscapes, and a prophesised world of underwater clubs and haunted dancefloors.
