So there are tons of old and new peeps in this show, but just wanted to highlight this!
Kool Cops, Randy Gagne (produced by Exploding Motor Car), 2.5 min.
Sunset Vignette, Randy Gagne, 2 min. (World Premiere!)
Randy Gagne a.k.a Man Made Hill likes to get down. He currently spends most of his free time in a messy makeshift studio inside of a narrow closet hunkered down over his synthesizer. “Kool Cops” and “Sunset Vignette” are two cuts off Side A of his new LP “Puzzle Answers” (2010: Bennifer Editions/Healing Power). Both videos find Randy Revelling in the spectral emptiness of dance music cliches, or “existential disco” as he likes to call it. He remains vibed out at all times. Current mood: aghast.
