1MM: Three Drinks Past Drunk and Oscillations Stays Up All Night at Tribeca Grand With Memory Tapes, Tanlines, Minimal Wave and XXXchange

Shitty photos of our free Oscillations party last night at Tribeca Grand? Oh, we’ve got plenty. New York turned out in force to catch Memory Tapes’ first headlining show as a live band. We couldn’t tell what surprised modest Tapes-guy Dayve Hawk more: that 1,000 people RSVP’d to see him, or that the crowd packed onto the floor and danced itself into a sweaty mess during the set of crisp, propulsive and impressively polished drummer-backed tracks from Seek Magic. Big thanks as well to Minimal Wave’s Veronica Vasicka, the Tanlines dudes (thank you for not making good on your promise to play an all-ska set), XXXchange, GrandLife and the Pop Manifesto.

TEST PRESSING: Get Psyched For OSCILLATIONS At Tribeca Grand, With Rare Tracks From Memory Tapes and a Special Film Score Mix By XXXchange

February 20th, 2010 | File Under: Test Pressing | Leave A Comment

A couple last minute details about tonight’s OSCILLATIONS show:

1. Memory Tapes goes on around 11:30, with Veronica from Minimal Wave opening with a set like this, and Tanlines and XXXchange closing out the night. (You may remember the latter from his last-minute support slot appearances at Animal Collective’s two sold-out shows last summer. The former Spank Rock producer/one-time Kills collaborator has also delivered floor-filling remixes for Panda Bear, Yeasayer, El Guincho, Santigold, Gang Gang Dance and a bunch of others.)

2. We’re expecting a decent crowd, so please show up early, as we’re letting people in until we’re at capacity and, well, there’s free vodka at 10.

That’s it for now. Check out a slew of Memory Tapes songs after the jump, along with a special DJ mix from XXXchange…

2009 IN REVIEW: Part One of Our Complete Guide to the Year’s Best Releases, Including Girls, Memory Tapes, The Flaming Lips and 17 More Must-Listens

Sorry to break it to you, blogosphere, but we just don’t believe in lists anymore. They’re just so arbitrary, and a couple mouse clicks away from being obsolete, you know?

That’s why we decided to give you a completely random rundown of our favorite ‘09 releases—because it’s not as predictable or pointless as an argument over “who’s No. 1 this year, Dirty Projectors or Animal Collective?” Be sure to watch out for a second set of s/t-endorsed records before the clock strikes 12 on Thursday night.
