JAN 25 - JAN 31
Living in the present moment is really just like skating on thin ice: first you're in 2005, awaiting the winner of the first annual Story Prize, anticipating Miranda July's latest, listening to Brazilian Girls, and then a random blip tweaks your cortex and, suddenly, embedded memories come flooding forth. This week, the zeitgeist samples liberally from bygone eras. We find ourselves ensconced in the '30s watching down-home cinema gems and learning about crooners. Then, it's a Burton-style flashback to the '50s. And from there, it's only a hop, skip, and a madeleine to '80s icons like London's Leigh Bowery and '90s stars like our local Body&SOUL crew, the Fresh Prince, and D-Nice. Pop this in your RAM, and spread it... |

Justin Faunce |
| | Justin Faunce's large acrylic paintings are hysterical pop mandalas, where naked girls emerge out of birthday cakes, satellites reflect prismatic rainbow beams, and crescent moons grin like idiots. But it's not all fun and games. With painstaking precision, Faunce illuminates the popular terrain of art and advertising to reveal a disconcerting minefield of fascistic iconography and corporate villainy. In Emperor Tomato Ketchup, a Che Guevara/Michael Jackson hybrid is feted with the feverish fanfare of 20th Century Fox searchlights and BP Petroleum bursts. Meanwhile, the royal brass drips oil on a mountain of Campbell Soup cans and Matisse's dancers cavort precariously on the rim of a toilet bowl. (RA)
Note: This exhibit runs through Sat 3.5 (Tue-Sat: 10am-6pm).

| | As often available in record stores as bookstores, with pages largely supported by indie rock advertising, Brooklyn's finest, funniest cultural muckraker has always maintained an odd musicality. How better to grease up the Gutenberg than a benefit featuring big screen projections from an era before video killed the radio star? Tonight, many of the '30s — '50s' strangest jazz and country performances are screened — including those of Louis Jordan, Bob Wills, and Sister Rosetta Tharpe — and four minutes with Red and Struggie should leave viewers muttering "Outkast who?" WFMU DJ (and Joe Franklin scholar) Dave the Spazz gets jiggy in between reels. (MJ)
 Which Stay Free! issue and article outlines various commercial ventures, with quotes from the people behind them? The third and fourth correct answers each win two copies of issue 22.

| | Continuing to fight the good fight with an early shoe-in for one of 2005's blockbuster dance parties, One Family brings together the city's top selectors for a night of unmitigated madness, with all proceeds going to the American Red Cross International Response Fund for Tsunami Relief. The highlight comes early as Body&SOUL veterans Danny Krivit, François K, and Joe Claussell reunite on the decks
(with Ariel on lights!), followed by a soulful slew of big-room regulars including Junior Vasquez, Peter Rauhofer, Johnny Dynell, Hector Romero, Jeannie Hopper, Nicolas Matar, and Willie Graff. A true feel-good party. (JKG)
At which popular outdoor concert venue did Body&SOUL appear in the summer of 2001? The fifth correct answer wins a copy of the Deep Space NYC Vol. 1.

| | Though millions remember him for his shoulder-and-snap handshake on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, not to mention getting tossed from the Banks' manse like a rag doll, DJ Jazzy Jeff is a far more accomplished turntablist than sitcom personality (check "Brand New Funk" from his Fresh Prince days; you can thank us later). On 2004's Hip Hop Forever II, his first mix CD, Jazzy deftly
beatmatches Nas, Raekwon, Black Moon, Pete Rock, Cypress Hill, and the Pharcyde, cross-fading 20 years of moody hip-hop like a daydream. Peanut Butter Wolf — hip-hop's Alan Lomax — shares the booth with Jazzy tonight. (YS)

| price: | $21-25 |

Event Info |
| | Writers who are dedicated exclusively to the short story, such as the much-celebrated Alice Munro, are an endangered species these days. But tonight may be a key step in reversing this trend. Former O. Henry series editor Larry Dark and Julie Lindsey have established the new Story Prize, which drops no less than $20k (the largest sum of any US book award) on its honoree, specifically to sustain short
fiction. After stories by each of the 2004 contenders — Edwidge Danticat (The Dew Breaker), Cathy Day (The Circus in Winter), and Joan Silber
(Ideas of Heaven) — are read by Sonia Manzano, Kate Burton, and Jane Curtin, respectively, the winner is announced. Take in the fiction and the competition in one fell swoop. (JKG)
What award have you won that you cherish most? The best description in under 100 words wins a pair of tickets to this event.

| | Pulling together serious talent for a good cause, Giant Step donates 100% of tonight's door proceeds at hot spot Canal Room to Habitat for Humanity. The Brazilian Girls aren't from Brazil and only one is a girl, but that single feline female is enough to set this night ablaze. Their self-titled debut on Verve — which drops February 1st — launches this unique cabaret electronica quartet from Nublu to the world. Detroit-based soul hip-hopsters the Platinum Pied Pipers keep the energy high-paced, while sets by Nickodemus (with guest percussionist and MC Nappy G) and Rude Movements' Tyler Askew and Gamall ensure the upbeat élan holds through the night.

Event Info |
| | Curator Taylor McKimens champions a group of artists who won't be strangers to the public much longer. Focusing on those who circumvent the establishment's restrictions by taking alternative routes to high levels of individual creativity, Stranger Town features the characteristically manic cartoons of Daniel Johnston — an influential figure in the early development of alt-rock — as well as the Clayton Brothers' combination of folk images and expansive street energy, and others emerging from the American underground. But McKimens further broadens his scope to include Japanese artists emerging from that country's protean manga industry as well as hip Hong Kong graphics man Saiman Chow, in both cases illustrating the fertile interactions between US and East Asian subcultures. (AM)
Note: The exhibition runs through Sat 3.26 (Tue-Sat: 11am-6pm).

| | On the eve of releasing the breathtaking nearly all-vocal Medúlla, Björk playfully announced that instruments were "so over." Tonight, in equal parts defiance and admiration, modern jazz composer Travis Sullivan leads the NYC-based Bjorkestra down the opposite route in a big band paean to the Icelandic genius. Sullivan uses the singer's music as the ultimate framework for improvisation and interpretation. Accompanied by an 18-piece orchestra composed of some of the city's finest musicians, he traverses the vast musical landscape of Björk's catalogue with innovative and intricately woven orchestra-meets-electro arrangements. Bjorkestra debuted last September at the Knitting Factory, and their performance has been the buzz of the downtown set ever since. One Ring Zero open. (AP)

| | Leave it to Tim Burton to unearth the life of filmmaker Ed Wood — or as he was known among friends, the "Worst Director of All Time." Made infamous by the absolute atrocity of such flicks as Bride of the Monster and Plan 9 from Outer Space, Wood's kitschy persona was best expressed by his cross-dressing gag, Glen or Glenda — a John Waters-like coup d'état when it hit theaters in 1953. Johnny Depp plays the title role with grinning grace, and Martin Landau won an Oscar for his portrayal of an aging and morphine-addled Bela Lugosi. This film is essential viewing — the best of Burton and Depp, and, well, the worst of Wood. (PJW)
Note: There is a post-screening gathering across the street at Dempsey's Pub (61 2nd Ave, 212.388.0662) with complimentary Stella Artois.
Which of Wood's screenplays did he not direct? The first three to correctly name at least ten each win a pair of tickets to this event.

Hit the Breaks! feat. Liquid Todd, Haj, and Chill Whitey

| price: | $8 |
| links: |
Event Info | Liquid Todd |
| | Spotting radio DJs outside their lairs isn't hard — just attend a few concerts, grand openings, or other shill-worthy events. But finding one behind the decks at a proper club is far more unusual. Tonight, K-Rock's Liquid Todd joins the
Hit the Breaks! crew, with Haj, Chill Whitey, and the inimitable MC TC Izlam on the mic, and residents Sean Infinitee and Wavewhore in the mix from open to close.
Todd's Saturday night Solid State show is the local radio locus for all things breakbeat, but we're guessing his live set leans more toward nu-skool. Considering the recently remodeled Sullivan Room now sports an ultra
high-performance Cerwin-Vega VISION sound system, we suggest you prepare your limbic system for a serious working over. (CEH)

Gregoire Maret Trio

| price: | $15 |
| links: |
Event Info | Gregoire Maret |
| | Since the '60s, Toots Thielemans has been the undisputed master of the jazz harmonica. But in Gregoire Maret, a rising star on the instrument, Toots finally seems to have a worthy challenger. Not yet 30 years old, this Swiss native has already wailed on harmonica with greats such as Cassandra Wilson, Tito Puente, and Meshell Ndegeocello. Although Maret usually remains in the wings as a thoughtful sideman, tonight he shines on his own at this gig with funk brother Charlie Hunter on bass/guitar and the great Mino Cinelu (who cut his teeth with Miles Davis) on percussion. Look forward to raw funk, percussive grooves, and plain old musical mastery. (JM)
What was Toots Thielemans' first instrument? The seventh correct answer wins a pair of tickets to this show.

| | Jace Clayton's blog has been turning heads with its astute expat political commentary, omnivorous culture mulching, and ethnomusicological musings. But laptop fanboys and mash-up noiseniks know this Harvard-alum best as DJ /Rupture — the genius behind two essential mixes, Gold Teeth Thief and Minesweeper Suite, as well as '04's more nuanced studio album, Special Gunpowder (Tigerbeat6). This rare trek back from Barcelona teams him with like-minded eclectronica wizards I-Sound and Shadetek Sound System to connect the dots from Nusrat and Squarepusher to Dizzee and Missy. (JL)

Lenny Kaye's You Call It Madness: The Sensuous Song of the Croon

| when: | Fri 1.28 (10:30pm) |

| price: | $8 |
| links: |
Event Info | Lenny Kaye |
| | With the invention of the microphone came the
emergence of the croon, an intimate singing style that enabled performers to cradle audiences in the crooks of their arms and the gleams of their eyes. Sinatra, of course, is the most famous example, as he wined and dined and wined (and have we mentioned wined?) in shag-carpeted rooms across Las Vegas. Lenny Kaye, Patti Smith's old guitarist and a hugely important rock critic, appears tonight promoting You Call It Madness, his tremendous overview of the style, focusing on lesser-known singer Russ Columbo. In addition to reading from his tome, Kaye also busts out his own croon! Ladies, start your lashes! (YS)

For those of you as yet unacquainted, seize this opportunity to experience Stark-raving insanity at his second annual Idiotarod. In brief, the race is a demented homage to the Alaskan Iditarod. But here, humans are substituted for dogs, shopping carts for sleds, and beer for all other liquids. Thankfully, the course runs a mere five miles (down from 1,049) from DUMBO to Union Square, punctuated by well-stocked
checkpoints. There are prizes for the top placing teams as well as for Best
Saboteur and Best in Show. So costume yourself in furs and foil, and harness
your hopes to a chaotic cart odyssey. (JS)

| | We're quite spoiled, we New Yorkers. We rarely go to shows and watch every band, because we think we've seen it all. But the folks over at Asterisk know us all too well, and tonight they've got one to hold our attention. Featuring Codek Records' punk-funk mad scientist Freddie Mas, Brooklyn glitch-hoppers Ghost Blazer, a live dub-house PA from Turntables on the Hudson affiliate Zeb and Codek founder Sasha (aka Cosmic Rocker), and a late-night DJ freak-out by DFA Compilation #2 mix-master Tim Sweeney, this promises to be one to stay the night for; and that's a good thing — it's cold outside. (JAC)
Note: Zeb and Cosmic Rocker also launch a new multimedia night, iDub, at Joe's Pub on Wed 2.2 (11pm), with opening and closing DJ sets from DJs Probus and Sabo and live visuals by THESPECIALK!

| price: | $10 |
| | Moe Choi and his boys El Dopa, Erik the Red, and DJ Muz take the helm for a night of hip-hop-heavy revelry on the Hudson. Choi infuses his hip-hop base with everything from mesmeric DJ Shadow beats and jazz understructures to the whispers of Sade, hollers from the Pixies, and seductive freestyling by Ladybug Mecca. As his album Unfolding the Serious Mystery demonstrates, Choi focuses on the art of mixing itself, rather than on scratching or beat juggling. Live, this bewitching talent and his friends should kick the boat party into Choimatically-crazed high
gear; and don't worry about freezing — the dance floor is below decks. (FAY)

Rice, Pepe Villegas, and Joie Polaroid. Hosted by filmmaker Sam McConnell and designer Benjamin Weber, this monthly party brings together the city's disparate creative tribes and fosters the kind of diverse, playful, and eclectic vibe that keeps us warm at night.

Event Info |
| | Verbatim Verboten taps into the guilty pleasure of public eavesdropping and punches it up considerably: word-for-word transcripts of covertly recorded conversations between the rich, famous, and shameless are brought to life by a versatile cast of seasoned actors. Examples include President Reagan joking about nuking Russia, Rudy Giuliani fiercely berating an animal-rights activist, and a heartbreaking phone conversation between Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman as their marriage enters its final lap. (The latter was so well-received by Mr. Cruise's lawyers that they sent Verboten's producers a cease-and-desist letter.) The transcripts and cast will rotate with each
performance, but tonight is NYC's first installment of this Chicago hit, so keeping it edgy shouldn't be a problem. (TL)
What is the worst thing you've ever said or written that got back to unintended people? The six best descriptions less than 50 words each win a pair of tickets to this show.

| | Miranda July is obsessed with the spaces between people. Her past fiction and video works frequently placed slightly awkward, lonely individuals in close proximity to — but forever apart from — one another. It is a very distinct sense of alienation that drives her dry, realistic narratives, which occasionally offer room for escape through flights of fancy and absurdity. Already an accomplished writer, performer, and multimedia artist, July has now written and directed this feature-length film which screens at Sundance later this year. It comes to NYC courtesy of the "Sundance at MoMA" series, with July
herself in tow to introduce her work. (BB)

| | Throwing a Monday night weekly is no easy task, but Wave Music owner François K has made his Deep Space a staple in the reformed Meatpacking district. Tonight, King Britt heads up from Philly to join in the fun. Since busting boundaries with jazzy intonations of hip-hop in '92 alongside Digable Planets, Britt has added silky, nu-soul tinges to everything he touches — he promises to deeply dub out for K's bottom-heavy dance ritual. If only everything were this easy. (DB)
Which of Britt's albums takes the sound of the '80s as its main inspiration, and what alias was it recorded under? The eighth correct response wins a pair of tickets to this show and a copy of Deep Space NYC Vol. 1.

Event Info |
| | Bosom Buddies meets Mad TV in this bizarro musical farce about friendship, health care, and God. Two straight roommates fake a gay marriage so that the jobless one (Marcus) can get health insurance under the plan of the insured one (Giovanni). To keep two FBI agents from calling their bluff and to avoid jail time, they put on a homosexual vaudeville à la Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. Irreverent and relevant, A Modern World weds sociopolitical one-liners with pure ludicrousness for a good time way off-off-off Broadway. Post-show, enjoy a Pabst Blue Ribbon open bar, musical guests, and DJs. (ÇK)

| | Known for her gouache on paper portrayals of cartoon-like figures that deal with issues of identity and social strife, Laylah Ali returns to New York with a new body
of work that seems slightly less angry. Her focus here favors isolated figures over politically engaged groups, and the solitary characters appear
more festively attired, if equally glum. From slouching caps to radiating headdresses, hats and headgear become symbols that veil the underlying nature of the
individual, while cuts and scars suggest suffering souls. Set against spare blue grounds, Ali's wounded waifs float in an ambiguous world, awaiting release from an
overly ordered state. (PL)

| | He perfected campy makeup for the pop stage before Boy George; he modified his
face and body in dramatic works of performance art that foretold Orlan; and this
Australian-born queen unfurled glamorous capes (of his own design) at fetish nightclubs way before Priscilla set foot in the desert. Leigh Bowery — a London underground phenom during the '80s and early '90s — is chronicled
here in several marvelously costumed portraits by photographer Fergus Greer and
two rare films by Charles Atlas. Don't miss Mrs. Peanut Visits New York,
where Bowery manically sashays through Brooklyn streets while locals gawk at his striking mix of girth, grace, and get-up. (JK)

| CD REVIEW: Lemon Jelly, '64-'95 |
|
XL
Released January 2005
$12.99 (Amazon)
|
On their previous two releases, Lemon Jelly's Fred Deakin and Nick Franglen led the way into a surreal fantasy land, peppered with nursery rhyme-like samples, colorful characters, and superbly psychedelic visual art to match. This time, not only is the duo traveling to other realms — it's also traveling through time. The three-decade sampling '64-'95 finds the two expanding their milieu by masterfully delving into big beat ("'88 aka Come Down on Me"), trip-hop ("'95 aka Make Things Right"), and even disco ("'75 aka Stay with Me"). However, in time-tested fashion, they saved the best for last: "'64 aka Go" is an atmospheric beat-poetry-esque affair narrated (over 40 years ago) by that other great frontiersman, William Shatner. It's a slow-builder that erupts in guitar rock towards the end, boldly going where... well, you know the score. (DL)
Which Lemon Jelly song features the sound of a train? The tenth correct answer wins a copy of the CD, along with matching poster and pin.

| LOUDEN UP NOW: Plug Independent Music Awards |
|
Many of the artists that copped the most buzz among plugged-in fans in 2004 —
TV on the Radio, Dizzee Rascal, !!!, Joanna Newsom, and the Arcade Fire for example
— are unlikely to be rolling down the red carpet at next month's Grammys.
Which is why Plug exists: to recognize the artists and the albums that haven't been
released on major labels, but nonetheless make a major difference in our indie little lives every time we listen to them. This year's Plug Independent Music Awards
will be held at Webster Hall on February 9th, with performances from Dillinger
Escape Plan, Ted Leo and the Pharmacists, Aesop Rock, and Rjd2. But there's still
time for you to affect the outcome — just click over and vote for your
favorite artists, albums, and labels by February 3rd. (JKG)

| MUSIC DOWNLOADS: Smart-Music.net |
|
While the post-Napster years found record companies and the RIAA kicking and
screaming about illegal downloads, today's savvy record labels are realizing the
strategic importance of the format. Smart-Music scours the web for legal, free
mp3's, and is an easy way to keep up with electronica's complex permutations
without having to navigate the spyware-laden world of peer-to-peer networks.
Examples of the site's variety include esteemed minimal house producer John Tejada's remix of the Postal Service, and the atmospheric warmth of Ezekiel
Honig's experimentation. In addition, Finnish producer Luomo proves that vocal
house doesn't have to be a bad word, with a deep and sultry tune from his debut
album, Vocal City. (CJN)
