ALIAS AND TARSIER www.anticon.com/pr/aliastarsier.htm Alias is in part known for his diverse range of collaborations with such notables as Will Oldham, The Notwist, John Vanderslice, Lali Puna, Sage Francis and Ben Gibbard (Death Cab For Cutie) to name a few, so it was no surprise when he shifted gears from his 2002 glitch-infused, instrumental hiphop opus Muted and began working on a project with Brooklyn vocalist Tarsier. The project began with one fluke email and remained faceless for 21 months as they recorded their respective musical roles (without first meeting or even knowing the other). Alias returns to the hard drums and boom-bap-infused atmospheres; Tarsier walks a beautiful line somewhere between Bjork and Beth Gibbons. All in all, the result is a powerful send-up on behalf of their own honest music manifesto a project dreamt up and made human by a kindred pair 3000 miles apart. Their ambitious live presentation involves a four piece band armed with keyboards, acoustic guitar, electric guitar, MPC, and live effects, promising a big, warm sound.
ASTRONAUTALIS www.fightingrecords.com Blending styles of indie rock, electro, and talkin' blues into hip-hop, this rapper has developed a sound like no other.
ELECTRIC PRESIDENT www.morrmusic.com Something like a Postal Service for the Anticon set, a pretty percolating electro-pop project.:laughing :laughing
