Through the Eyes, Ears, and Mind of Matthew Gar Bailey
Muzak and Video Editing by none other than: A_Scissors
Dig this?… Well, he’s got a ton of free music for you and yers ears over at Hairy Sloth Records. Look for his new full length LP entitled “Approaching Sunlight” to appear on the web pages of Tha SLoTH in the very near future as well. It will include the track above and be just as immaculate and then some. Count on it.
Geometry never sounded or looked so beautiful as in Lusine’s -”Two Dots” track off of 2009’s LP
“A Certain Distance“.
Wanted to share this video/song with my GarLives peeps for a few months now. Finally got around to it. Props to Ian Monroe to turning me on to this album last year. Mad love n’ respect to you, your ears, and your eyes hombre.
So this thing kinda popped up outta the blue, but R_Garcia is touring Florida at the end of Nov./early Dec. & put me on a bill he’s doing at Orlando uber-hip venue - Stardust next Monday Nov. 30th. It’s totally Free and All Ages, so come check out my new music and some other stellar auditory arteests. All the Info you’ll need about the performers, venue, times, etc. can be found over in the News section of my label: Hairy Sloth.
Come see me play a short but highly potent alGARhythm set next Monday. A lot of you haven’t been out to any of my shows for a good while now, and if you could make it out, I’d really appreciate your support of my new auditory gARTw3rkage. The other artists on this bill are no slouches either, and R_Garcia’s comin’ out of tha ATL schmokin’ hot these days. No doubt, it will be a “warm” one to say the least with a special surprise sesh at the end of the evening. It’s kind of earlier event as well, only running from like 9 - 12, so you’ll be home and in bed at a totally respectable hour for all you early risers’.
Really hope to see you there if ya can make it!
Here’s the flyer:
So my recent alGARhythm performance, which was a part of the 5th annual Anti-Pop Festival in downtown Orlando, went pretty dang well. I was rawkin, rollin’, bobbin’, & weavin’ auditory magic like there’ was no tomorrow. And it turns out I wasn’t the only one who thought so, as my mad skillz were mentioned in the Orlando Weekly on Wednesday in it’s “This Little Underground“ section. Turns out certain fine-feathered folks thought my performance was one of the highlights of the entire festival. Good to know that I’m on the right track in my auditory explorations and the live presentations there of. (Thanx for the opp and dap Bao. You’re the shizz hombre.)
Look for video from this performance to be posted very very soon on Hairy Sloth Records in the Video section, and there’s already a few photos from my Anti-Pop performance up on the photo section of the alGARhythm myspace page. best of all.. in a few months, my long awaited 3rd solo LP is gonna be droppin’ like seasonal rain on a thirsty desert. Stay tuned for much more goodness in the coming weeks and months.

Penquins never seemed so transcendent than in this new 3 some odD minute clip by British Neo-Noise artists: Fuck Buttons. IMO, these guys have been kinda overly hyped in past 2 years from psuedo hipsterites and kids who are still probably giggling about their band name. Also much of their w3rk to this point just contains too much “fuzz” and not enough “bASS” for my tastes. But I gotta give’em props here myself. In smaller & more approachable doses, and with their muzak being accompanied by stellar video w3rk as their is in this particular clip.. I can jump on that bandwagon for a ride to the next stop atleast. Nice w3rk boys.
The band are set to follow up 2008’s “Street Horrrsing” & release their second album, “Tarot Sport: in October 2009.
This is a must see Film about music copyright, fair use rights, sampling, & remixing… but it also delves in to much deeper societal “imperfections” & issues in the process.
The freedom of information in the modern especially, has more of an effect on us than you might think. It is vital to human survival and crucial to our future evolution. Copyright issues don’t just effect musicians and artists. They effect inventors, scientists, philosophers, doctors and in turn.. all of us. Knowledge is power, and knowledge has been held hostage on a rampant scale for too long in America.
When everything in our society is bought and sold like livestock, even ideas, we forget the true value of certain things. When everything has a “price”, but nothing has “value” - we all suffer.
This film has been racking up awards and making people all over the world think about the bigger picture for months now. If you haven’t seen it, go have a looksy and tell a friend. Then if you’d like to take your involvement even further, you can Download the film and edit your own version. Audience participation is encouraged.. No joke.
Eventually all of the multiple versions and additions will be reconfigured and they’ll be releasing a 2.0 version in 2010. Perty dern cool. Who knows, It may just keep evolving and transforming for years to come. A harbinger of it’s own change. A newly formed migrating butterfly encircling and fertilizing the globe with knowledge, enlightenment, and freedom through our massive maze of human communication.

alGARhythm: One of Central Florida’s best kept secrets. Tucked away in his secret laboratory somewhere in the wetlands of Volusia county, this digital shamen will bring the ruckus as he performs his special brand of electronic rock and roll for your eyes and ears. Multiple drum machines, circuit bent toys, and an array of samplers are his weapons. Your brain stem, his target.
Pan/Dos: The end of tv as we know it. Pan/Dos combines the analogue hardware of yore into a chaotic, yet melodic soup of sight and sound, using VHS and TV Tubes as the ingredients. Must be seen to be believed.
Dr.XnLb: This is what happens when a certified code ninja slices his way into the music scene. By touching his mac in its naughty places, he can tease beats into a digital tapestry of circular logic and musical run on sentences with more segues than Dean Kamen. Also, pancakes.
DJ [HexWarrior]: This host of WPRK’s Talk Nerdy To Me and founder of the Nerdapalooza music festival will start the night off right with his own mix of Nerdcore, Chiptunes, Wizard Rock, and other genres so geeky, they make Woz himself blush.
-> dr.xnlb: 9 - 10PM
-> alGARhythm: 8 - 9PM
-> Pan/Dos: 7:15 -8PM
-> dj[hexWarrior]: 6:30 - 7:15PM
