What is the world coming to when press bios now proudly state that a musician’s work has been featured in ringtones? To be fair, Morillo isn’t a musician, but a DJ, so the distinction is probably moot. Anyway, the bald American tends towards Latin rhythms, which would probably make for a good scene in the opening weeks of Snapper Season. The fact that it’s at Rai, though, suggests that the snapper will be unattainable by readers of this paper anyway. Plus, most of the attendees probably wouldn’t be able to tell Morillo’s mixing from DJ Grad, Vlad, Blad, or Krad. But hey, maybe we just don’t get it.
Liars
B2. May 2, 22:00
Without a doubt, the gig of the fortnight. After coming to everyone’s attention earlier this century among the New York dance-punk craze, Liars have moved so far away from that, that it really makes you want to second-guess the critics who lumped them in. Although their first album did have the rhythmic elements of a great Gang of Four record, their experimental bent really came out on their second (and much-hated) album. Jared claims that this album is his favorite, but he might just be trying to seem cooler than thou (not hard). In any case, the band has shifted directions on each album, with the only real consistency the urgency of the almost-primordial rhythms. Most recently, the band has been exploring 60s/70s garage rock, again to critical praise.
