I fig­ure a lot of cats who read this blog prob­a­bly already reg­u­larly check www.brainfeedersite.com, the site for the label/collective started by Fly­ing Lotus.

But if you haven’t seen it before, I highly rec­comend you check it out now for reg­u­lar and inspring doses of visual art, music and gen­eral left-field cre­ativ­ity. If you dig around in the archives you’ll find mixes to down­load by both mem­bers of the Brain­feeder col­lec­tive (like Fly­ing Lotus and Gaslamp Killer) and some very spe­cial guests (like Mar­tyn).

For just one exam­ple of the awe­some con­tent on this site, check out this mega-jam ses­sion to cel­e­brate Fly­ing Lotus‘s birth­day, organ­ised by the Art don’t Sleep crew and fea­tur­ing none other than the Gaslamp Killer behind the drumkit (and plenty of other L.A. lumi­nar­ies par­tic­i­pat­ing, like Shafiq Husayn from Sa-ra Cre­ative Part­ners).

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, the cur­rent L.A. beats scene reminds me of the vibe of the glory days of mid-late 80s US under­ground rock, and that’s a very good thing. Per­son­ally I can’t wait for the Gas Lamp Killer at Cage on 27 Novem­ber 2009……………
