My liver has finally stopped aching from my weekend sojourn in Minehead. All who made the expedition had a splendiferous time at the Dirty Three curated ATP festival. Myself, rather blearily, included. Although owning a few of their records, I'd never seen the Dirty Three do their thing, and 'hazard!', I cried; they are bastard-well brilliant! If there were medals for sheer presence, a tidy row would be pinned across Warren Ellis' chest. I particularly enjoyed his twix s... MORE

Photo by Ilix - http://www.sxc.hu/profile/Ilix JULY 2000: A rainy day in Glebe, Sydney, Australia. Some electric violin, the sound of tin shimmering as if drum patterns can form light, a guitar chord thickening with one stroke like someone lightly touching the back of your neck. What a sweet chill it is: The Dirty Three, loud and clear. New music for a dying afternoon at Badde Manors café. Outside the window the street running with water, people running too, for shelt...

Do you have Pavlovian responses to any particular songs? There are a few that I have listened to so many times, and loved for so long, that the very first note can catch my attention in any situation.

Somewhere, someone is playing my song." The biggest one for me is Deep Waters by Dir... MORE

I'm very glad to have discovered in these past couple years the beauty of taking the vocals out of music, and creating music that seems to stand outside the current paradigm of "tried-and-true-indie" or "so-avant-garde-as-to-be-unlistenable". Don't get me wrong, post-rock, or whatever you want to call it, has had it's share of criticism of backlash, but I seem to respond far more vividly to it. Part of it is what Eno once said about his "Ambient" albums, that he was inte... MORE

Are you interest in touring China? Pitchfork posted wild cat Warren Ellis' astounding experiences during the Dirty Three Asian tour. Before they even got to China, the country's government "decided to cancel our performance permit because they thought we were a pornographic act due to our name. They asked that we change it to Dirt Three."
With the help of Australian trade organization Austrade and tour manager James Chen, the band were able to "seal the green light three... MORE

photo by Pete Ottery (www.c41.au) Sometimes I could just run into a river and drown. That's what I'm thinking about mid-way into the set tonight when some electrical thing passes over me and this other realization comes that sound is the city's river and we're here in it already, in the river of a music coming right out of our landscape, and when I think that I see that I felt this from the start, in the anticipatory pulse of the crowd as a prerecording of Television's M...
