STILL AVAILABLE: Man Made Hill - Puzzle Answers

Beniffer Editions/Healing Power #17 LP

http://soundcloud.com/healing-power/sets/man-made-hill-puzzle-answers

ORDER ONLINE

Have you ever heard a pinball machine collapse down a flight of touch sensitive keyboard stairs? Have you lived la vida loca with marinara coursing through your veins? Have you ever seen or felt the white soul combing the churn of a century-old fox trot interlude? The debut long playing vinyl of Randy Gagne's Man Made Hill is the key to that door. Behind it ceiling fans actively seek out shit piles to fling into the brackish waft of a slaughterhouse dance floor where corpulent slabs of nameless meat careen off their hooks in a mockery of modern dance. Technotronic hot flashes floss the slippery keyboard runs of a synthesized marimba with food poisoning recalling the histrionic hand clapping and mellifluous tinsel pulling of The Flying Lizards. During a sentimental reprieve an overworked farm hand ceases his ploughing and looks up to a horizon riddled with plush clouds and mops his brow with a dirty handkerchief. It's been a long hot day and it's time to do the pump rectilinear the air we breathe.
The result is a sort of pelvis pulverizing one is not likely to forget, with crowd favorites like "Kool Cops", "Get Gout" and 12 other potential anthems for a sprawling gaggle of straggly-haired genetically-indifferent lovers. Tower of Randy for pres!
The record itself is pressed on white vinyl in a silkscreened sleeve designed by Martina Hwang, Bartosz Gawdzik and Andrew Zukerman.

HOOVER PARTY - SOME LIQUIDITY FOR THESE TROUBLED TIMES VOL 1

 


The magic of Jonathan Adjemian takes you along the misty rivers of consciousness on this his 2nd album, (though it's been years in-coming). Falling softly  asleep or gently starting the morning with this synth laden mindbender will truly touch your soul and keep your innercore at a peaceful state. Simply gorgeous, much like the man himself. A true one of a kind experience.

Cover Painting & Design by Healing Power in-house artist:
Victoria Cheong (Loose Bouquet/The Deeep/HVYWTR/Nuit Blanche Deveraux)

DIRECTIONS:

Healing Power Picnic III is taking place in South Humber Park under a giant weird structure that looks like an alien landing pad. We will post some signs with arrows to help direct you when you are close.

1) best way:

bike along the waterfront heading west till you get to the big white snake bridge that goes over the Humber River. Cross the bridge and then go underneath the bridge to the bike path that runs North up the West side of the river. Follow that path till you find us (5 min ride up the river)

2) TTC
option 1 - take 501 Queen streetcar (make sure its a longbranch car) West to Humber Loop at Queensway. Then transfer to bus - 66 PRINCE EDWARD towards OLD MILL STATION and get off the bus at STEPHEN DRIVE AT CLOVERHILL ROAD FARSIDE.

option 2 - take Subway to Old Mill Station and then transfer to a bus- 66A PRINCE EDWARD towards HUMBER LOOP. Get off at Cloverhill Rd which is right next to the entrance to the bike path. Follow the path till you find us- prob 5-10 minute walk max

If you feel like wandering in Etobicoke, just get off the streetcar at Humber Loop and walk up to the Queensway then cross to the North Side and walk West to Stephen Drive. Then it's just a short walk up Stephen Drive to the entrance to the bike path at Cloverhill Rd.

We are also very honoured to be apart of the Wire (May 2011) cover story about Britt & Amanda's Not Not Fun & 100% Silk labels and the many different artists that they've worked with. Thanks to Simon Reynolds for digging into jamz and writing a real in-depth piece on this psychedelic family of lovers and creaters. NNF has been the best label for years now, hope they keep on spreading the jamz for a long long time to come. YOU GUYS RULE!
