What a difference a year makes—certainly in the case of this fledgling music festival. Last December's inaugural Fun Fun Fun Fest featured over two dozen bands and DJs, and showcased a good variety of indie rock, punk, and electronic music. This year, they've grown even bigger, better, and bolder: the second annual installment will span two days and has been pushed ahead by a month, to November 3rd and 4th. Staying true to their...

Chris Adams (of Hood) puts forth his first solo effort in the form of Bracken’s We Know About The Need, out now on Anticon. Featuring plenty of lo-fi, down-tempo beats, the album is a montage of assorted sounds, ranging from dub-step to drum n’ bass, mixed and produced every which way. We Know About The Need is equal parts coherence (“Heathens”) and cacophony (“Evil Teeth”), while leaving room for some “normal” standards (“Back On The Calder Line”) at the end. Bracken has arrived at a futuristic, electronic bliss, comprised of intricately arranged textures; organs, horns, keys are all used appropriately to augment his laptop output. Adams evokes a wide range of relevant acts - there are traces of Tortoise, the Postal Service, AIR, maybe even later Radiohead (or Thom Yorke) in his work but his ingenuity separates his style from any of those. The result is a one of its kind, ethereal post-something-or-the-other album that clatters, drones, almost rocks n’ rolls.
