Kelly Moran The New York-based composer talks prepared pianos, signing to Warp, and new album “Ultraviolet”
The New York-based composer talks prepared pianos, signing to Warp, and new album “Ultraviolet”
The first descriptor that Kelly Moran uses to describe herself in her bio is “composer.” The New York-based artist is also a performer — a pianist whose work fits neatly into that cozy space where contemporary classical and electronic music frequently consort — but on albums like 2016’s The Optimist and 2010’s Microcosms, the music was meticulously created, notated, and, sometimes, deconstructed.

cupcakKe Eden
Styles: hip-hop
Others: Awkwafina, Kool Keith, BbyMutha, Khia
On Eden, the Chicagoan rapper cupcakKe returns with a reminder that she proudly fucks more (and better) than the prudes who choose to drag her for her lewdness and hypersexuality. The rapper born Elizabeth Harris isn’t exactly hard to write off; with a stage name that references bukkake, a mixtape titled Cum Cake, and singles like “Juicy Coochie” and “Spider-Man Dick,” her music seems geared more toward the morbidly curious than the genuine rap fan. And yet, cupcakKe prevails.

Charles Bradley Black Velvet
Styles: soul, funk, r&b
Others: Sharon Jones, Lee Fields, Baby Huey, Otis Redding
Charles Bradley might’ve been keeping the flame for a sound that time and ears have grown to eschew, but his exhortations of and pledges to love retain an assailing vitality. To love is ever a high-stakes affair. One feels inclined to write “more than ever,” but it has been a piercing constant of existence, whatever travails that humanity as a whole is undergoing. It’s never easy to love, and when it is, we know better than to take that ease for granted or get minced up for our foolishness.

Machine Girl The Ugly Art
Styles: bloodied banker-core, digital hardcore
Others: Dreamcrusher, Deli Girls, Kill Alters, Channel 63, Five Star Hotel
Traversing the history of punk, the opening 30 seconds explode from the distant beating of drums to the synthesized onslaught of sequenced drums. The tensions between punk and dance music that haunted post-punk — with its gentrified visions of funk, “world music,” and pop, and its eventual copout in New Wave — are eviscerated. Machine Girl, now expanding to a duo and incorporating live drumming, does not give a shit about this history.

Chris Corsano & Bill Orcutt Brace Up!
Styles: dancing about, rhythm and blues, free-form
Others: Oxes, Hella, The Double, The Dirty Three, U.S. Maple, Henry Flynt, CP Unit
It’s obviously getting late. So don’t be reluctant to call this whatever you want. Call it all day. Call it work. Call it a stress test. Call it a call of the wild, wild western value pak, sent pak, pak it in while you still can, braced for impak. Call it thick walls splitting deep seams and big sleeps under a collapse-ceiling duvet. Call it maelstrom. Call it hatch battening. Call it calm in a time of folksy animal abuse analogies on the progressive side of debate. Call its name through a glad din, glad you’re drowned out in red hot spite of yourself.

Don’t let this amazing painting of Panda Bear holding a french bulldog distract you from the announcement of his new album Buoys
A few months ago, Animal Collective released an audio-visual album called Tangerine Reef. Notably, Noah Lennox a.k.a. Panda Bear was absent from the proceedings for the first time in the band’s history. But don’t think for a second that the fluffiest animal in the collective was just eating bamboo all day while sitting around doing nothing though. No, Panda Bear was eating bamboo all day while sitting around recording a brand new album!
