KARIN TATOYAN / LEARNING MUSIC / ROCCO DELUCA / SARAH NEGAHDARI AND THE SAD SOLIDS (FROM HAPPY HOLLOWS)
Karin Tatoyan
“Think of Tatoyan as a baroque Bjork. If her haunting vocals don’t dazzle you, her odd music will — counterposing, as it does, weird electronics, sound effects and loops with the very organic tones of a French horn and cello. Seeing her is like watching an Escher come to life. Almost-mathematical repetition gives way to chaos; melodies build and build yet resist payoff, like stairways to nowhere”

ARTDONTSLEEP PRESENT - PLATINUM PIED PIPERS / MUHSINAH / THE GASLAMP KILLER / KUTMAH @ ECHOPLEX
Platinum Pied Pipers
Slowly but surely carving out the sounds and styles they’ll unveil on their sophomore LP, Abundance, coming this fall on Ubiquity, Platinum Pied Pipers and their ultra-nouveau eclectica will reconnect well with the modern hipster/electro rock/new wave/ R&B concoctions that are escaping people’s private studios these days. Usual suspects Waajeed and Saadiq (not Raphael) continue conducting the soothing sonic assault, but we can also expect to see ever-dependable producers like DJ Spinna, Kev Brown, Oddisee and Geology alongside new-bians like MonicaBlaire and Nico Redd. Added to the group between their ?uestlove-loved 2005 debut, Triple P, is Coultrain from St. Louis, chanteuses Jamila Raegan from NYC and Karma from Texas.

Tonight features:
Nobody is putting out music like Pop Levi’s right now. Levi calls his sound astral rock ‘n’ roll-much catchier than the more descriptive psych-glam-garage-blues-rock fusion. If you need an artistic point of reference, think Prince meets Marc Bolan mixed with probably a bit too much Syd Barrett for his own good. It’s not the most unusual group of influences, but Levi works them into a sound all his own.
Infectious up-tempo numbers like “Sugar Assault Me Now” and “Pick-Me-Up Uppercut” show that Levi has some ready-for-primetime swish in his step, especially the latter, with its overt sexuality. He seems equally comfortable with his acoustic, strumming some contemplative tearjerkers like “Skip Ghetto” and “From the Day That You Were Born,” and he has enough soul to pull off blues-funk tracks like “Blue Honey” and “Hades’ Lady.” This is to say that Pop Levi can do it all, and do it all well.

Three live music stages provide much of the energy, where local heroes like Mike Watt, Extra Fancy and Candye Kane perform back-to-back sets. Midway rides and an open-air disco add to the fun. Of course vendors are in on the action, with more than 200 booths offering everything from tamales to Greenpeace literature.
