Tonight I am DJing at the Windmill in Brixton for John Vanderslice. I think the Windmill is going to be the most awesome venue to see him. North of the river can get fucked. Don't the cool kids know that everything worth going to is south south SOUTH ? Anyway, for those of you who don't know John, he is all kinda of awesomeness. From Wikipedia "Vanderslice was a contributing producer on the Spoon album, Gimme Fiction, and has collaborated and toured with The M... MORE

This dude is way under appreciated. Sounds like a really nice show he just put on down the road at Duke. http://www.indyweek.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A161000
Fans wiped sweat from brows and Vanderslice's shirt was soaked just two songs into his set, but the heat didn't disturb his charm at all. Jovial as ever, Vanderslice led fans (including his mother, plus Dan Bryk, David Karsten Daniels and The Rosebuds) through a career-spanning set, building energy as the audi... MORE

John Vanderslice - Emerald City
(Barsuk, 2007)
7.5 stars out of 10 It is my pleasure to announce the arrival of the sixth good album in seven years by singer-songwriter, producer and reliable motherfucker John Vanderslice. It would be disingenuous to say I like 'em all the same (the songs on 2002's Life and Death of an American Fourtracker have stuck with me the least thus far), but they've all had their fair chance at rotation and they've all passed. The formula hasn'... MORE

John Vanderslice wrote Emerald City while going through drama with his French girlfriend who was trying to obtain a Visa from the US Immigration. The application was denied and this did not bode well. Emerald City is raw and stripped down to the deepest of emotions. You will be enveloped by the haunting lyrics and distressed music. Sometimes the darkest of times allows for the best inspiration to write and give yourself an outlet. While you listen to "White Dove" yo... MORE

Well this news just made my day. :) (from pitchforkmedia.com) San Francisco producer/songwriter John Vanderslice will release his sixth solo full-length via Barsuk on July 24. Titled Emerald City in reference to Baghdad's Green Zone (though we're not entirely sure why), Vanderslice wrote the majority of the record during a still-unresolved legal struggle with U.S. Immigration over obtaining a visa for his girlfriend, a French citizen he met in Paris. Emera... MORE

Thanks to Largehearted Boy for pointing me to this page. John Vanderslice's 'Pixel Revolt' was one of my favorite albums of 2005, and he has made the entire work available as a free download. The only catch is that the whole mess has been reworked by Scott Solter. Don't worry...That is not a bad thing in this case!
Go download it now!!!
No, seriously. What are you waiting for?!... MORE

so today i [being the generous person that i am] decided to take my john vanderslice cd to school and expose the people in my class to some music they're probably not familiar with and could possibly enjoy. i popped it into the cd player and turned the volume down fairly low as not to disturb anyone. plus, i thought if anyone got into it, they would probably turn it up. which they did, eventually. but not before this girl [who i know isn't my biggest fan] screamed bloody murd...
