1/21/2012 -That band of mystic heathens known as Jeffertitti’s Nile return to Seattle. Their future primitive space garage vibes  were one of the highlights of Escalator Fest 2010 so we look forward to seeing them again but this bill also boasts three of the hands down best local acts going right now- Diminished Men, Rose Windows and the Low Hums. With DJ Mamma Casserole.  See you there…

The popularity of Gong seems to be at a 30 year high and why not? In this messed up world sometimes Gong is the only thing that makes sense. Just ask George Jefferson.

This year’s poster was the first collaboration between Aubrey Nehring and Steve Quenell. A limited edition screenprint will be available through Andrew Crawshaw at 112 Printworks in Fremont.

If you haven’t stopped by the 112 Printworks Shop you’d best do so. Aside from being a gallery of fine screenprinted art with new artists every month it also the new home to the most fabulous Leary Records formerly located at Resolution Audio in Ballard. They’ll be having a groovy DJ party next month to celebrate the merger.

Sooo many things going on in the imminent future… like for instance, ESCALATOR FEST III SEPTEMBER 23-24TH! (more on this very soon)  But first things first- this Wednesday Aug. 10th at The Comet: “Return to the Fungal Abyss” This is the 2nd night of a month long journey into sound that will be happening every Wednesday in August and features all four members of avant-metal geniuses Lesbian taking an improvisational trip into realms beyond joined by numerous special guests. Each night will be a something new and different.  This week the Curious Mystery open up with visuals by Portable Shrines and the All Seeing DJ One Eye spinning far-out records between sets. Reports from the 1st night indicate that this is definitely an event you don’t want to miss…

This will also be a party to celebrate the release of FUNGAL ABYSS’ debut album “Bardo Abgrund Temple” on Transliguistic Other. Hear a preview here: http://fungalabyss.bandcam​p.com/
