Now here’s a high/lowbrow blend we can get behind: a pair of Lincoln Center events that’re curated and scored by Andy Votel and Mahssa Taghinia. In case you’re unfamiliar, Votel runs the Finders Keepers family of labels—including such mind-blowing imprints as B-Music and Twisted Nerve—and Taghinia helps the London-based company out on this side of the Atlantic.
As for what they’re doing uptown, here’s what the Film Society has to say about Thursday night’s festivities:
Join us as we celebrate the release of Pomegranates, a compilation of Persian folk, funk, and psychedelia on the Finders Keepers record label. This special night features a feast of ultra-rare vintage film from Sixties and Seventies Iran, culled from hundreds of hours of material from the pre-revolution years. Curated by Mahssa Taghinia and Tom Fitzgerald (programmer at Los Angeles avant-art house Cinefamily, and director of Edan’s Echo Party), “collaged” by Fitzgerald, and soundtracked with a live Persian mash-up by Finders Keepers founder Andy Votel. The night will also feature an unearthed music video pastiche of songs from the compilation, along with vintage commercial reels, and a montage of selected scenes. The curators of Pomegranates will DJ the afterparty.
