Nisennenmondai

A Japanese female instrumental trio, the name means "Year 2000 Computer-Bug Problem."
They have an album coming out on Lindstrom's label, Smalltown Supersound, at the end of July, composed of two previously released EPs, which have song titles like "This Heat" and "Pop Group". This is live in Shibuya, Tokyo, 2004.

This is some fiery stuff, so be careful. I'm not really sure what to call it, in the way that it might perhaps be difficult to find a name for my own breath, my lungs, my blood, etc.

I think it is safe to say that the grift of this band does not end, if you know what I mean.

Recognize.

Complicated Drumming Technique

Commercial for DVD of unparalleled drum training from legendary percussionist Jens Hannemann. Educational DVD presented by Fred Armisen and available from Drag City



Customer review from Amazon.com: "Like Sudoku, Hannemann's technique is easy to learn but hard to master. And like Sudoku, I predict that this DVD will sweep the world by storm. A Gale Force storm. A storm that leaves many victims in its path, but empowers the rest of the community to join together to rebuild in its wake. Then Hannemann can step in and release a charity CD to raise funds, but more importantly ... awareness."
