Now, I couldn’t in good conscience say that Minneapolis duo Keston and Westdal are in that orbit just yet, but their newest record One Day to Save All Life hints at something potentially explosive while taking their sound in a much more fulfilling direction for yours truly.

Thus, expectations were high for his follow-up The Outside and after a few listens it’s pretty clear that dude is at the top of his game right now. It’s intelligent without being overbearing and eschews the stylistic rigidity of so much other, less successful electronic music.

Tommy Guerrero, Gadget and Monte Vallier are Jet Black Crayon. The story goes that Guerrero was asked to open for Isotope 217 way back when and instead of playing solo, he tapped his boys to play as Jet Black Crayon. Maybe this is what arriving a that dreaded crossroads sounds like.

As I tidy up my best of 2007 post, here’s some obnoxious self-promotion. It’s not like my door is being beaten down with interview requests, so when I get a chance to spiel I might as well post a link to it. http://detour-mag.com/assets/2008/01/08/meet-greet-scissorkick/

The brainchild of Antibalas’ guitarist, Marquitos Garcia, Chico Mann, is what I personally like to call “8-bit Afrobeat” and after seeing them live recently, I stand by that claim.
