Dubstep pioneer KODE9 at the Eagle Theater
Deep dub production from KODE9, who chisels his crisp beats and gloomy sub bass to create a new dimension to dubstep mechanics. Like another garage hybrid, grime, it uses dark sounds, but differs from grime in being largely instrumental. Dubstep incorporates UK garages sparse clipped beats, technos futurism, jungles skanking half-time rhythms and the sheer bass weight of dub reggae. The bass is the thing. That moment of delicious weightlessness before the b-line drops. Says Kode 9: The sub-bass is the thing thats consistent. Anything goes on top of that. For the Glaswegian producer that means cinematic samples and booming tones. With NOSPECTACLE: nospectacle is a laptop band-DJ hybrid project founded in Detroit in 2008. It is made up of sound/film producer Chris McNamara (Thinkbox), and Jennifer A. Paull and Walter Wasacz, both of Paris '68 DJs. Drones, dubs, subsonic bass immersion and live video mixing all find a place in the group's dream factory discotheque. So far this year they've played at: Eero Saarinen Shaping the Future exhibition at Cranbrook Art Museum, Movement, and the DSO's 8 Days in June Festival.

Deep dub production from KODE9, who chisels his crisp beats
DEVON WILLIAMS: Carefree, Devon Williams' debut album, has a melodic complexity that belies its immediacy, and descends from a lineage of great music. Those yearning for a return to intelligent pop music-- songs as gratifying on their 1,963th listen as they are memorable after their first-- need look no further. Over the course of a year and a half, Williams recorded at three different studios around Los Angeles, walking away with a handful of songs each time. Laying down multiple guitar tracks-- making as many as ten different mixes for some songs-- Williams scrutinized every moment to achieve his ideal sound. Songs such as "A Truce" or "Honey" presumably come from a lifelong fan of greats such as Nilsson and Chilton, Cope and Downes, Lennon and McLennan. However, Williams sports an unlikely background. While many people had a hyper punk band in their teenage years, the controversial Osker, a group formed when Williams was 16 years old, was signed by Epitaph Records. He quickly learned the benefits and dangers of the scene as he proceeded to kill punks' idols. As Williams grew up, the manic energy of Osker became less appealing than an expansive pop sound, so the band broke up. This led Williams to test new approaches, recording and touring in various setups before centering in on the sound that defines Carefree. Help from friends Allen Bleye and Greg Arnold, with whom he still plays, were key. Carefree should have seen release a year ago. However, before he finished mixing, Williams was contacted by his friend and string arranger, Steve Gregoropoulous, whose band, Lavender Diamond, was looking for a guitarist, so Wiliams joined on. He spent the past year touring and performing with the band, and, upon completion, added the final details to Carefree, gaining a fan in folks like Dan Bejar (Destroyer, New Pornographers) along the way
