I’ve been keeping up with Fulton Lights as he wanders throughout Europe. Apparently, while over there, he only just found out that his friend Nihiti, over here, remixed one of the tracks from his older album, the FL self-titled release, like, a year ago. So here it is, Nihiti’s Fennesz-y take on Fulton Lights’ “Thank God For The Evening News:”

Far-out minimalist genius Terry Riley is doing a special performance next month (Nov. 8), sponsored by Bang On A Can, at Le Poisson Rouge. It’s a piece called “Autodreamographical Tales,” in which Terry reads his dreams over music performed by himself and the Bang on a Can All-Stars. You can get a sampling of the oddball material right here.

And speaking of weirdness, my man Raf emailed me this morning to tell me that he had just picked up I May Be Gone For a Long, Long Time, the new LP by experimental musician Caethua (RIYL “a collaboration between Judee Sill and Jandek”). And, remember how I explained that sometimes, to keep costs down, labels will re-use older record sleeves, flipped inside-out, for new releases? Well, Raf’s copy of the Caethua record came in an inverted sleeve for Destroyer’s freaking Streethawk: A Seduction. Knowing that there were only 300 copies of Streethawk ever pressed, it doesn’t seem strange that there may be leftover empty sleeves laying around to be re-used. But what does seem strange is that they would be lying around for almost 10 years before anyone re-used them. So what am I getting at? Well, this is pure speculation, but to me, this seems like evidence that Streethawk has secretly, quietly, been repressed and should be announced at some near-future date.

But I REITERATE: this is all heresay; I’m not ebaying my original copy just yet.
