Blues Control MP3

There's a lot of slapping air bass around WFMU these days, not unlike what Alan Partridge  does listening to Gary Numan in his trailer (You Tube link). We're not ashamed, either. Blues Control equals the alter-ego of Lea Cho and sometime-WFMU fill-in DJ Russ Waterhouse who also record under the name electronics/drone outfit Watersports. Blues Control is their mojo release, a bit closer to Dead C than Dicky Betts (though somehow linking the two for sure), and have a cassette out on the Palsy label that's been getting some attention around these parts. While the A-side features two killer workouts that evoke the sound of John Popper's flyin' guts hitting the wall of BB King's club when someone puts a bomb in his fanny pack, the B is "Losing Game" (MP3), a completely ridiculous endless loop culled from an Electric Flag (Mike Bloomfield's band) CD Russ bought at a CVS Pharmacy. Hence the air bass madness we are all raging. You should feel it too. Blues Control play tomorrow night at North Six in Brooklyn with Plastic Crimewave Sound and the Bible (the latter featuring Oneida/Awesome Color members); a full length album is in the works for SF's Holy Mountain label, and you can learn more about the Blues here.

Very motivating mp3. Thank you for sharing the "Losing Game" audio with me. I feel a need for more water after this.

[Adolescent Sessions]

The Adolescent Sessions continues this Thursday, 10/4 with Celebration & Blues Control.

The Adolescent Sessions is a bi-monthly event featuring 2 bands, 2 rooms, CCTV, projectors, and a lot of wiring. Presented by Billy J and Viva Radio, the new series combines live broadcast recording sessions with a voyeuristic A/V experience. Part show, part real-time documentary, part Schrodinger's Cat, The Adolescent Sessions is a sensory anomaly in which the audience witnesses the bands' performance in progress via surveillance video feed streaming from an adjacent room. Audio and video recordings are later aired on Viva Radio (www.viva-radio.com).

Thursday, October 4th features Celebration and Blues Control.

Every 1st and 3rd Thursday. $5.
@ Uniondocs Bodega. Doors 7 PM.
322 Union Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11211

It's perfect that people can take the loans and it opens completely new opportunities.
