Dark Sister at 350 Broadway

Wednesday, June 27th, 2012

Dark Sister‘s Tiffany and Jessi performed their swagged out set in a supernatural 350 Broadway setting, and now we’ve got real live video of the whole thing shot, directed, and edited by our buddy and go to camera man Matthew Caron. Unsurprisingly, and as you’ll see from the video, Dark Sister made for a insanely enchanting live show. The girls brought it and then some, barreling through the audience with reckless abandon (even pawing at some lucky fellow’s face at one point), conducting ceremonies on the ground, working some impressive choreographed and synchronized dance moves, and dousing the whole scene in a thick melange of trap rap reverb.” – Whole Milk

Long Distance Poison – Signals To A Habitable Zone
Fin Records, 2012
Directed by

“Long Distance Poison present an irresistible concoction of convergent psychedelic and analog electronic energies, everything from a love of nature, and Rothko-like visual aesthetics, to musical influences like Sky Records, John Carpenter soundtracks, minimalism, and a less-hyper Mother Mallard or post-Phaedra Tangerine Dream. They’ve released some excellent tapes on Ecstatic Peace, Digitalis Limited, VCO Recordings, Constellation Clatsu, Cryptic Carousel and more–releases that capitalize on the band’s strength in long-form electronic composition with a wealth of improvisational wiggle-room. There’s a “ground” concept for each section of each piece, but that merely serves as a taking-off point for LDP’s pulsating extrapolations, typically about 30 minutes in length total, or longer. They’ve been wowing local Brooklyn audiences for some time now, and part of the fun of their shows is the opportunity to experience the band finding their way in the moment, watching the clay of their ideas take on form and urgency as they go.”

–by Wm. Berger, host of My Castle of Quiet on radio WFMU

I shot the live footage in this Noisey special on Children Of The Night during their performance at Mishka’s 350 Broadway storefront. The black and white footage is from my video for their “Kids From Queens” single, including material from an earlier cut of the video that didn’t make it to the final cut.
