Cultural Stimuli in CHI
Issue 105: safari flavor
Ever since Daniel H. Burnham and his crew of cartographers laid out plans for Chicago 2.0, very little of our city has remained uncharted. Luckily, the scenery in the urban jungle is constantly evolving, giving inner-city explorers ever-changing sights to survey. Journey into parts unknown this week with the Empty Bottle's meticulously curated Adventures in Modern Music series, or discover the smarts you never knew you had with the Chicago Science Expedition. Probe the grey area between patriotism and terrorism through the Battle of Algiers, or wade through the thick-as-molasses time-shifting of Slomo video. Watch the greatest show on earth derail before your eyes during Roustabout: The Great Circus Train Wreck, or, for a different type of train wreck, listen to culture critic Chuck Klosterman discuss his interview with pop tart Britney Spears. Calibrate your compass, stray from the beaten path, and spread it.

|
|
New-school essayists like David Foster Wallace may get the seal of approval from the NPR-istocracy and other leather-patched literati, but it's rock critic-slash-pop-culture commentator Chuck Klosterman who gets name-checked on The OC on a regular basis. Klosterman has analyzed the tea leaves of such generational dividers as Saved by the Bell and Guns 'N Roses in past books, and his newest collection of essays, Chuck Klosterman IV, is a bemused continuation of such explorations. Among the pieces of candy Klosterman retrieves from our ample pop-cultural piñata: his recap of watching Britney Spears' brain crack in half when he asks her about her "metaphoric meaning." (QH)

The Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players
|
|
Equal parts Partridge and post-punk, conceptual art-rock collective the Trachtenburg Family Slideshow Players perform indie vaudeville inspired by vintage slide projections (why they aren't FOUND magazine's house band is anyone's guess). Starting in the down-and-dirty din of NYC's East Village coffee shops, the mother/father/daughter combo has worked its way up, earning high praise from critics and fans alike and collaborating with the likes of Nellie McKay, Regina Spektor, and Guns 'N Roses bassist Duff McKagan. Tonight, the Double Door welcomes the band for an evening of "family" entertainment like you've never seen. (JH)

Downtempo producer Curumin is both worldly enough to be in Chicago as part of the World Music Fest and cool enough to do a set at Sonotheque. His album Achados e Perdidos (out on DJ Shadow's Quannum Projects) is a blend of guitar-filled Brazilian beats — a breath of fresh air compared to Brazil's other prominent electronic export, baile funk (which is still cool, but at its worst can get a little '90s Dance Mix USA for our taste). A rare set from world-renowned DJ Jose de Jesus rounds out the evening. (MH)

When most folks talk about North Lawndale — if they talk about it all — the conversation tends to be about what's wrong: high unemployment, drugs, gangs. With Learning from North Lawndale, the Chicago Architecture Foundation flips this discourse by highlighting the vibrancy of the neighborhood. The exhibit showcases more than 100 images of the community's architecture, from single-family greystones to grand civic works. North Lawndale, you see, is the site of the Burnham Prize Design Competition, which invites leading architects to design structures that balance community identity and the pull of gentrification.

Take a literary style pioneered by 1960s French writers and mathematicians, project it through the eyes of a cartoonist, translate it into aural vignettes, and you've got the Third Coast Festival's first audio experiment, 99 Ways to Tell a Radio Story. In collaboration with Mark Madden and inspired by Oulipo (the aforementioned literary style), the project challenged producers to pen stories starting with the phrase "To begin with, they never got along," piecing together a story from pre-recorded bits, creating rhythmic accompaniment, and keeping the piece's length at exactly two-and-a-half minutes. Hear some of the best results and discuss other examples of "creativity through constraint" tonight with Julie Shapiro and Gwen Macsai. (PG)

Along with sonic collagist Tim Hecker and no-wave pioneer Rhys Chatham, this bill features Jandek, a musician for whom "notorious weirdo and recluse" would be a gross understatement. Having released 47 sparse, terrifyingly bleak records, he played his first live show only two years ago. (TG)

Man Man w/ Make Believe and Coyote
|

Hurtling through a maelstrom of raucous, rough-and-tumble honky-tonk and soulful, discordant waltzes, the white-tennied madmen of Man Man left fans at the Pitchfork Festival sweaty, feather-covered, and agape from their certifiably awesome performance. With raspy melodies splattering hither and thither, the grizzled beardos pirouette through jaunty piano lines, yelping, maniacal laughter, and dense breakdowns of freaktastic funk, somehow tying it all together like a pirate-approved petit four. Bring your war paint as Man Man unleash their schizophrenic, moonstruck vision on Chicago once again. (SN)

| MUSIC: Psych-Hop |
Edan w/ Badgerlore, Hive Mind, and the Coughs
|
|
Edan is impressive enough when you consider his skills in the studio, but when he's behind the mic and working the turntables, he becomes a hip-hop Triple Crown contender. His style — a potent blend of psychedelic beats and elaborate wordplay — earned him the nickname "The Humble Magnificent," and on 2005's Beauty and the Beat, he fuses '60s psych and '88-era hip-hop into a messy, mind-bending gem. Mixing guitar fuzz, kaleidoscopic sonics, and relentless lyrical invention, Edan finds original links between two eras. He headlines this Wire festival gig, which includes Badgerlore (featuring members of Deerhoof and Six Organs of Admittance), Hive Mind, and the Coughs. (PS)
 Edan likens the idea of God to which part of speech? The second and fifth correct responses each win a pair of tickets to this show.

Burn your bunsen at the Chicago Science Expedition, as two weeks of cross-city science adventures kick off today at Daley Plaza. Leave the lab-coat stereotypes at home — the science here is less be-spectacled than spectacle. Sure, hizzonor theorizes at noon, but he's overshadowed by appearances from both the World's Largest Periodic Table and the World's Largest Crocodile. Whether it finds you getting dirty as a paleontologist or designing your own sustainable tree house, the Expedition aims to dust off science and make it exciting and accessible to all. (CB)

Sol.iLLaquists of Sound w/ Glue
|
|
The Quit Your Dead End Job Tour features some of the hardest working bands and groups in hip-hop that make a living entirely from touring. Headliners Sol.illaquists of Sound blend electronic elements and hip-hop seamlessly — imagine if Digable Planets, Prefuse 73, and Cut Chemist holed up in a studio and made songs about vegan food and you'd be getting close. Glue, another highlight of the tour, feature beats by Chicago's own Maker, DJDQ, and MC Adeem. Glue's performances make you understand how they could have sold 10,000 copies of their first album solely at shows — you might even leave with a copy of their new release, Catch as Catch Can. (MH)
Which Shakespearean soliloquy would you most like to hear Sol.iLLaquists of Sound perform, and why? Our favorite response in 50 words or less wins a pair of tickets to this show.

Other than A Bathing Ape, DJ Krush may be Japan's biggest contribution to the worldwide hip-hop scene. His latest release, Stepping Stones, is a dark, head-nodding, self-remixed double-disc best-of collection. Disc one, "Lyricism," features vocalists like Zap Mama, Mos Def, and Aesop Rock. Disc two, "Soundscapes," consists mostly of haunting ambient instrumental remixes (and a solid collaboration with ?uestlove of the Roots). And the A-list collaborators don't lie: Krush is one of the most worthy DJs of our time. (MH)

Bittersweet and Sweet Mandy B's are on the docket so far, and a cell phone-alert service is available for the casual BGE (baked-goods enthusiast) who wants to join the crawl at specific bakeries.

Unlike the unapologetically psychedelics-addled Beatles, the Monkees (aka the "Prefab Four") generally kept their image squeaky-clean for TV. But when The Monkees series ended at the tail end of the '60s, Peter Tork, Micky Dolenz, Mike Nesmith, and Davy Jones smoked a pound of reefer and came up with Head, one of the most bizarre rock 'n roll films to ever have been co-written by Jack Nicholson (huh?). Following a dreamlike logic and peppered with surprisingly kickass musical performances ("The Porpoise Song" is a psych classic and you know it), Head also features cameos from Frank Zappa, Dennis Hopper, and Sonny Liston, along with the band's alternately hilarious and philosophical (read: stoned) musings.

What, if anything, distinguishes a "freedom fighter" from a "terrorist"? Is the use of violence against civilians (and the torturing of political prisoners, for that matter) ever justifiable or morally acceptable? Does terrorism offer the only viable political strategy available to underpowered and marginalized groups? Italian director Gillo Pontecorvo's classic film explores these thorny ethical issues in his hauntingly realistic portrayal of the Algerian War of Independence. Praised by critics for his evenhanded treatment of the conflict — in which native Algerians fought to shake off the chains of French colonialism — Pontecorvo lays bare the abominations both sides committed in their bloody struggle for victory.

When word reached members of the Vibrators, in December 1976, that their European tour was being cancelled in light of the Sex Pistols' incident with Bill Grundy (and the accompanying perception of UK punk bands as being overly aggressive and anarchic), bassist Pat Collier boasted to NME, "There's nothing the establishment can do to stop the punk from coming through." Well, he was right: the Vibrators have been humming along in various incarnations for 30 freaking years now. Tonight they perform classics from their debut (and still their best) album, Pure Mania, as well as their latest release, the all-covers Punk: The Early Years. (SN)

Let's Get Out of this Terrible Sandwich Shop
|
|
Band names that exceed, say, six syllables kind of make us want to jump off the nearest cliff, but Let's Get Out of this Terrible Sandwich Shop escape the death-by-bad-band-name stigma by being both undeniably clever and, improbably, quite amusing. Composed of professional sillies (members perform with Second City and Annoyance Productions), the trio plays farfisa-heavy indie pop loaded with smartass observations, witty absurdities, and bizarre narratives. Frontman Tony Mendoza maintains that Sandwich Shop aren't a "joke band," per se, and his songs follow suit: the sparkling pop confections are strong enough to stand on their own, even without their comedic brilliance. Expect witty banter and sandwich-centric skits between songs. (SN)

The Neo-Futurists' newest piece, Roustabout: The Great Circus Train Wreck, takes on a hodgepodge of topics: war, the circus, Thomas Edison, historical fact, historical fiction, elephants, the dead, Sade (via the visage of Kenny Rogers), meta-theatrics, and, of course, a train wreck. If it sounds like a lot, it is. But despite a few clunky devices, the show works because of earnest and energetic performances by the Neo-Futurists, some well-written dialogue, and a story that is both intriguing and very human. When the clowns are just being clowns and the story is allowed to tell itself, the performers shine. (NS)

Also on view is an installation in the gallery's hallway by New York-based artist Ian Pedigo, who fashions everyday refuse from the urban landscape (cardboard, magazine pages, discarded plastic) into elegant pastiche.

OUTSIDERS WELCOME: The Adventures in Modern Music Festival |
 |

Chicago music fans may still be bragging about the once-in-a-lifetime summer concert season of 2006, but the hits keep coming, thanks in part to the Adventures in Modern Music Festival (Wed 9.20 - Sun 9.24). Co-curated by the Empty Bottle, the Gene Siskel Film Center, and the impeccable tastemakers at Brit music mag The Wire, this intimate concert series brings forward-thinking musicians to the Bottle's indie rock-friendly confines for a five-day, genre-crossing jam session. Willfully pairing disjointed bands, outré sonic experiments, and genuine creative outsiders, the festival showcases the experimental cutting edge of underground music, along with select films playing at the Siskel Center. This year's lineup includes the first-ever Chicago show by legendary musical recluse Jandek, as well as sets by psychedelic Beantown MC Edan, Brazilian dance duo Tetine, and jazz heavyweights William Parker and Hamid Drake.

CD REVIEW: The Rapture, Pieces of the People We Love |
|
|
Vertigo/Motown
Released September 2006
$9.49 (Insound)
|
Cowbell? Check. Yelping? Check. White-hot guitar lines and keyboard counterpoints? Check: this must
be a Rapture album. But something's changed on the NYC quartet's sophomore LP, Pieces of the People
We Love, beginning with the vocal harmonies, which usher the record in with a Queen-like
explosion of backmasking and continue to slather song after song like hot butter. A new sense of
spread and spaciousness is in large part due to Ewan Pearson and Paul "Phones" Epworth, who
co-produced eight of the album's ten tracks. And the band's songwriting feels both more controlled and
more ambitious: "Whoo! Alright-Yeah... Uh Huh" may sound at first like a stock disco-punk rave-up,
but bluesy guitar riffs, some killer turns of phrase, and genuine moments of freak-out jamming lurk
beneath. "People don't dance no more"? Not if the Rapture have anything to do with it. (PHS)

STREAMS: Miles Maeda and DJ Three Live at the Guggenheim |
|
|
After a summer-long recess, First Fridays at NYC's Guggenheim Museum — featuring music curated by Flavorpill — kicked off its fall season with DJ sets courtesy of Chicago-house stalwart Miles Maeda and rising tech-house jockstar DJ Three. Little could suppress the feeling on the rotunda floor, as the talent dropped tech-funk, electro, and straight-up jacking house, that First Fridays' re-inauguration couldn't have come at a better time. Plug in to AOL Music for soundboard-quality, exclusive mixes of the night, and be sure to check the photo archives from this and previous First Fridays events. Next up in October are Ratatat and Pink Skull. (CJN)
