about

IN OCTOBER 2010, I WAS RANDOMLY IN NEW YORK FOR A FEW DAYS. THROUGH FRIENDS (AND ON VERY SHORT NOTICE) I LINED UP A FEW WHITE RAINBOW GIGS.

THIS ALBUM IS RECORDINGS OF THOSE THREE LIVE SHOWS.

THE FIRST SHOW WAS A YOGA CLASS AT DUSK ON TOP OF A DERELICT BUILDING IN BUSHWICK. THE ROOF LOOKED DIRECTLY ONTO AN ELEVATED SUBWAY PLATFORM. THE SQUEALS OF THE TRAINS MIXED WITH THE SOUND OF THE TWO SHITTY PRACTICE AMPS I WAS PLAYING THRU AND ABOUT 30 PEOPLE DID YOGA. THE SUN SET...DAY TURNED TO NIGHT...I CAUGHT A GLIMPSE OF A WOMAN IN THE NEXT BUILDING WATCHING US THRU HER WINDOW. I WONDERED WHAT SHE THOUGHT.
THE RECORDING HAS LOTS OF KILLER WIND NOISE BURSTS!

THE SECOND SHOW WAS WITH A BUNCH OF YOUNG COOL BANDS AT THE ALL AGES VENUE "MONSTER ISLAND BASEMENT". I PLAYED EARLY AND QUICKLY. IT GOT CROWDED FOR THE REST OF THE SHOW, BUT IT WAS NEARLY EMPTY WHEN I PLAYED MY AMBIENT AIR HORNS AND COW BELL BLASTS...

THE THIRD SHOW WAS AT A SECRET LOFT PARTY DEEP IN AN OTHERWISE COMPLETELY HASIDIC NEIGHBORHOOD ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF SOUTHERN WILLIAMSBURG. BILLED AS A RECORD RELEASE SHOW FOR ONE OF THE OTHER ACTS THAT PLAYED, IT WAS BASICALLY A HOUSE PARTY WITH KEGS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE I DIDN'T KNOW. THE PA WAS BIG, OUT OF PHASE AND THE SUBS KEPT CUTTING OUT. THERE WAS A KEG DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE STAGE. I REMEMBER A TALL MODEL-ESQUE ASIAN DUDE WEARING A CAPTAINS HAT AND RED VELVET TAILS STRUTTING AROUND SELF IMPORTANTLY AND DECIDEDLY IGNORING MY SET. IT WAS SICK.

ALL TRACKS RECORDED LIVE BY GOOD FRIEND AND EXCELLENT ELECTRONIC MUSICIAN DAVID FARRELL (AS "DORMANT" & "LOCATE/MODULE")!
THANKS DAVID FOR TAPING THESE SETS!
THANKS TO TODD P, THE MARKET HOTEL, VIBES MANAGEMENT AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT HELPED ME PLAY THESE AWESOME LAST MINUTE SHOWS.
