We'll keep this one brief, these guys Particle Devotion are friends of friends of ours from New Orleans, and we're pleased as punch to be putting them up at the Way Out Club this Thursday, 10/6. These guys employ a wide range of instrumentation to sculpt flawless artisanal dreamy indie rock gems. Seriously, anytime you have somebody in your band credited with both vibraphone and vocoder, you have our attention, lol. Give it a swing if that is your thing, and then come catch them Thurday with locals The Oddfellows and Comrade Catbox. Full album available at: https://particledevotion.bandcamp.com
(cough) also, don't forget WAY OUT WEIRDO WEDNESDAY #13 also at the Way Out the day prior, 10/5, featuring Nebulosa, Scheiffv, Jason LaChance, the long awaited return of the original 4-piece lineup of Brain Transplant, and a musical blind date between Santur (persian hammered dulcimer) player Ali Naeini and percussionist Drew Gowran. SUCH FUN. (cough cough cough)

snacktime - neiman martin "nights in paris/progress/slow walk"

You know what they say, "the best laid plans of mice and pterodactyls often go awry". Yeah... We delinquent. We know. New episodes and snacktimes have been slow to materialize, because life is crazy right now. Playing/booking/working lots of shows, new jobs, school, babies. We busy. But it would have been EXTREMELY remiss of us not to drop this today, like we meant to do weeks ago.
Neiman Martin is a sharp, fresh, young rhymesmith that bowled us over when we caught him at a hip hop show at the Way Out a couple months ago. He turned in a confident, skilled, and arresting set, on an absolutely killer bill full of hot talent that also included perrenial champs The Domino Effect, gothy tinged R&B from Sailem, and our new pals Insane Analog (head honcho Patric Brown serendipitously showed up and filled an unexpectedly empty slot for us at the last Way Out Weirdo Wednesday, sans backing band- if you were there, you remember how good that was for sure).
Neiman's lyrical sensibilities are smart as fuck, his beats are refreshing, and he's from North County. Triple threat, I'm tellin' ya. We're rushing this snacktime episode out tonight because we love you and don't want you to miss your opportunity to catch him yourself tomorrow night, (10/1/16) when he returns to the Way Out Club (I'd put the address here, but if you follow this podcast and haven't picked up that info by now, you're pretty much hopeless lol), appearing alongside Ali Kool, $leazy, Bry Bee, and SHVL. So check out these three tunes, some of our favorites off his mixtape "Music Vol. 1", which you can find along with other goodies at https://soundcloud.com/neimanmartin Or better yet, come to the show and toss dude a five spot for a CD copy, because you KNOW that local talent deserves your support.
