Freebies and Where We'll Be.

You might remember our Friends Pizza! from this week’s Public Education playlist as well as Beach Dazed and the Museum of Neon Art show a while back (memory refresher here). Well the boys have just joined Manimal Vinyl’s already awesome roster for the release of their second EP in 2010. On October 5th Manimal will be releasing a digital only compilation of Pizza!’s best stuff. “The release will include fifteen remastered favorites, representing all of our official releases and including a couple of other goodies.” In preparation for this new life for Pizza! They must remove their free discography from their site on Monday, September 21. This leaves us all with one more week to grab all those years of music for free.

To really welcome Pizza! to the Manimal crew, they were added to Manimal Festival in Pioneer Town, which I was already wetting myself over, joining Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, Rainbow^Arabia, Fool’s Gold, Juliette Commagere and many others. I can’t think of any better way to spend $30 and a weekend than in the desert in an old movie set listening to some of the best music LA has to offer.
Pizza! – Bird Dreams
Pizza! – Be a Man
It’s not easy to think about in this heat right now but next month when it’s a little cooler, it’ll be time to mozy on out to Pioneertown in Joshua Tree for Manimal Vinyl’s second MANIMAL FESTVAL! It couldn’t take place in a cooler location. Pioneertown “started as a live-in Old West motion picture set, built in the 1940s. The movie set was designed to provide a place for the actors to live, and at the same time to have their homes used as part of the movie set” [via]. The desert and this line up combine offers nothing less than a religous experence.
Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeroes – Carries On
Rainbow Arabia – Harlem Sunrise
Juliette Commagere – Queens Die Proundly
VOICEsVOICEs – Flulyk
Well fuck, it’s not very often I get excited about a band after the first listen. But I’ve fallen for Rainbow Arabia already. Think Gang Gang Dance, the Avalanches all mixed with Thievery Corp and some dub step that’s damn danceable. The following songs transcended what normality could have ever offered and danced their way past the weird all the way to epic. The new album drops July 28th, so you get all this time to just get wet waiting.
Catch them the 28th at the Echoplex and you won’t be disappointed.
Here’s a sample of what to expect. Must see music video after the jump.
Rainbow Arabia – Omar K (Ghosts on Tape remix)
Let’s just continue dancing all day today and all day tomorrow… It’s the start of a very good weekend, see you all in south central.
