Why do we like this?
Yesterday saw Mochipet play Nightlife at the Cal Academy of Sciences in San Francisco.

Frontman David Wang was joined for the first time by an on-stage live drummer, a new approach that he has been crafting on the back-end but was yet to premiere...until last night.

The cool part? They stuck to the event's dinosaur theme, entering stage wearing Jurassic masks that reminded me a lot of Deadmau5 (yes, there were LEDs). The crowd was pretty solid to start, and enjoyed the antics greatly. Many found themselves shifting back and forth to the glitch-rock / noise-rock of Mochipet.

That said, I'm not sure this was my favorite kind of live show. Things got pretty redundant -- as if I was listening to a modern-day jam band. My favorite parts were the bridges that popped up here and there: a quieter approach that allowed you to actually distinguish the harmonies. Unfortunately, the rest could have been done with in the first five minutes.

By Kyle Suss on Oct 22, 2010 | A Kraddy set is designed to do one thing: get you dancing like its 2999. Mission accomplished for Kraddy, but unfortunately I can't say the same for his successors whose sets left me somewhat less than impressed. Lucky for us, this review is about Kr... read more →

By Jason Grishkoff on Aug 22, 2011 | This is one of those songs that I don't expect The White Stripes anticipated a glitch-hop group remixing. Probably because 8 years ago, no one knew what glitch-hop was. Released as the first track on their 2003 album Elephant, "Seven Nation Army" rea... read more →
