Friday December 17th

Futurebirds’ Second Annual Christmas Soiree

Hear ye, Hear ye, ye drunken revelers.

Thou all knowst the hour that strikes! Thou knowst it deep in the darkest loins that stirrrrr! Futurebirds’ Second Celebration of the Christmas Season is upon us all. What’s that…correct, my good friends. Correct! The Second Annual Futurebirds’ Christmas Soiree! Atlanta’s own King Plow once again plays host to this merriment. However, this year, 2010, the elves have created somewhat of a d…ifferent cast of characters. A hand picked cast.

We’ll christen the eve of December 17th with a shotgun start! Hardello, known around the village of Athens as Hardy Morris, heralded for his work with Dead Confederate, will fire off the first shots buttressed by a boisterous backing band featuring fellows in Futurebirds. Ooooohhh, you want to get to the Soiree early. Indeed!

Next, travelers from the great state of North Carolina, Lonnie Walker, will nourish our souls with terrific tales from afar and afoot. Futurebirds struck lucky enough to call these folks friends. Soon enough, you will, too. This band, well, again, you don’t want to miss.

Last, but certainly not least, the host musicians. Futurebirds will take the stage at King Plow. The boys will hold in their pockets surprises, oh yes! Expect to witness the countriest Christmas celebration since Darryl Worley’s December set at the Grand Ole Opry. Well, perhaps not that seeped in tractor grease and buttermilk, but you get the idea. Entertainment!

In all seriousness, nothing in your bones suggests absence the night of December 17th, at King Plow in Atlanta, Georgia, Futurebirds 2nd Annual Christmas Soiree featuring Hardello and Lonnie Walker. There shall be no excuse great enough. Not one.

See you at the top!

P.S. You can wear horrendous holiday attire if you so wish.

Eliot Lipp

From Tacoma to San Francisco to Chicago to Los Angeles to New York, producer Eliot Lipp has always followed the music. Creating songs that, according to XLR8R, “tickle days after the last spin,” he combines hip-hop influenced drum programming with the vintage synthesizer sounds found in the cutting edge electronic music of the 70s. Eliot Lipp’s early career saw him vigorously honing his skill on the club circuit where his fresh and daring take on hip-hop impressed Scott Herren (Prefuse 73) so much that he put out his 2004 debut LP on Eastern Developments. Subsequent successful releases on Hefty Records have continued to expand his audience and refine his craft. Now, Mush is thrilled to bring offerings of Eliot Lipp’s timeless yet novel interpretation of electro-funk to the people.

Random Rabbit

So what is a Random Rabbit?
-
These days, it’s getting harder and harder to tell…some would argue that it is one part electronic and one part organic, while others prefer to call it equal parts fantasy and surreality. It’s true, these ingredients make for a pretty sexy stew that the Rabbits feed their hungry audience…and with a recipe that is never followed the same way twice, loyal Rabbitheads can’t get enough. First time witnesses to a Random Rabbit live extravaganza are often left awestruck and vow to return to a such a twisted, mind-melting experience as soon as humanly possible. The Rabbit’s hilariously off-the-wall approach to making their audience shake their asses is becoming legendary.
-
Formula? What formula?
-
Already four albums deep into a life that only began in Atlanta in 2005, Random Rabbit not only refuses to acknowledge a conventional style, they laugh at the mere thought of it. In a time where countless bands will release one album approximately every two years, the Rabbits scoff and release three albums in ten months (March 2008-January 2009) on Abstract Logic Recordings—the most recent of which, Ornament, is as far-out as the Rabbits have ever ventured. Staying true to their roots, Ornament’s shape-shifting formlessness weaves around the brain and gives it a tight squeeze. More so now than ever before, their glitchy beats, luscious melodies & global consciousness lend themselves to a type disjointed continuity that is new territory even for something as random as Random Rabbit.
-
It’s one thing to never play a song the same way twice, but this is just ridiculous…
-
Never content to play it safe, the Rabbit’s main focus is in their live improvisation which is funky at its calmest and utterly chaotic at its weirdest. They often find themselves most at home when they are farthest from it. With 21st century music technology working overtime, all forms of audio are able to be performed & presented in their most manipulatable format…and the Rabbit is leading the charge. The combination of new gadgets with conventional instrumentation has helped Random Rabbit become innovators in the development of the ever-shifting jamtronica scene.
-
Now that’s a Random Rabbit.

Uprise Dub

Uprise steps in at a time in the world of music where everyone has access to the same tools to craft their art, in the age of a watered down and over-saturated industry. Yet in the midst of this age, Uprise shines. Over the last year they have steeped their sound to the point of perfection, rather than following a carbon copy paste formula for producing they approach each track as an art piece. Genre is not something Uprise is concerned with, every tune includes elements of different styles and still remains centered in music made do dance, thrash or spin. In Uprises’ first year they played festivals and clubs nearly 3000 miles from home and with the likes of Flying Lotus and Rusko, as well as graced the top ten charts on download sites with their first single ‘Soulz’. Rather than name drop the already arm-length list of well known artists Uprise has performed with, we’ll talk about the fact that their more recent productions and live performances are on caliber with the best of them. The long awaited full length album due out in late 2010 includes guest vocals and collab tracks with fellow artists representing the dirty south, It spans several styles of electronic music leaving the listener satisfied and wanting more.

KP is excited to welcome Borgore all the way from Israel on his world tour!! November 26th!

[Tel Aviv, Israel]

Borgore, Asaf Borger, is a 23 years old Dubstep producer who’s known for breaking conventions.
Studying Jazz music and classic theory from the age of 5, mastering the saxophone and exploring different musical genres and music instruments over the years, Borgore is an artist of no boundaries.
His tunes are known for bringing new things to the table causing conformists discomfort, and that’s even before they’ve heard his explicit lyrics.


Borgore’s success is down to hard work and minimum short cuts. Being based in Tel Aviv and living away from the major scenes and having no support from bigger artists or connection with the right people, Borgore achieved his goals through social networks to build his dedicated fans base.


Today Borgore works with major artists and is continuously touring worldwide.
