Each week we send Turkishomework out to capture a sliver of our city’s blurred-vision nightlife. Presenting the final part of her Twilight Zone take on CMJ, a set that makes our Clusterfuck party look kinda creepy. She also got a nice laidback shot of Amazing Baby singer Will Roan, one of many local artists who hopped onstage for Spanish Broads’ bizarre improv set. Read more

F#CK CMJ: Presenting 7 Reasons Why Glasslands Is the Only Place You Need To Be Next Saturday

Posted on October 16, 2009
Filed Under CMJ, News | 2 Comments

The following people have played our annual Glasslands party in the past couple years: MGMT, Yeasayer, Jay Reatard, Amazing Baby, Holy Fuck, Blaqstarr, and a bunch of others. All before they ‘blew up’. Or at the very least, before they started playing places like Bowery Ballroom. We’re not bragging; we’re just stating facts, followed by a list of seven bands we’re certain will be blowing up the ‘blogosphere’ in the coming months.

(Please note: We decided to bypass Ticketweb this year to save you money on fees. If you want guaranteed entry—and these spots are limited, mind you—please E-mail events@self-titledmag.com ASAP and we’ll try and get you sorted through a simple $10 PayPal purchase. So DIY of us, we know!) Read more

OSCILLATIONS Returns To (Le) Poisson Rouge With a CMJ Bill That’s Been Pre-Approved By Pitchfork, The New York Times, Kanye West & More

It’s been a good nine months since we last held an OSCILLATIONS party at (Le) Poisson Rouge. Which is unfortunate considering our School of Seven Bells show was a resounding success, making us want to throw such a thing on a monthly basis.

That didn’t quite happen, but we’re over it. You see, all that time’s been spent building the best possible bill for self-titled’s first official CMJ showcase; one that’s related to TV on the Radio, Grizzly Bear, Kanye West and Pitchfork’s Best New Music section. (An unofficial all-nighter—much like last year’s deliciously messy Jay Reatard show—will be revealed in the coming days.) And here it is, with $10 advance tickets available now on LPR’s site…

All right, we gotta be honest here: Brooklyn, you nearly brought self-titled to tears on Saturday. While the weather outside looked like monsoon season as Glasslands opened its doors, you guys packed the place within a few hours. As a thank you, we encourage anyone who had a hell of a time with us to e-mail events@self-titledmag.com about who you’d like to see at s/t’s next party, as we plan on booking more cheap, intimate, no-bullshit shows in the coming months. More details to come soon. For now, the evidence …
