Dedicated Follower of Fashion
Here I am shamelessly following the herd. And who is everyone buzzing about these days w/o fail? Little Boots, AKA Vic Little. Not that I don't get the hype, she has talent and promise in spades. But her material is still few and far between, difficult even to preview, so I've been reserving my ten stars for a full-length release. If there's one thing that's swaying me to hand out premature approval, it's evidence of LB's amazing live performances. Both Sheena Beaston and Tastes Like Caramel have awesome accounts / pics from her live New York show this past week. And if that's not enough to quench your curiosity, check her out quirky performance below, on Live with Jools Holland.
Sidenote: That awesome toy she has is supposedly a Yamaha Tenori-On. It looks really similar to a Monome 256, which I was obsessed with for awhile. Check out a live demonstration video of it's crazy beat sequencing skills (Listen for Daft Punk's Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger sample). Speaking of Daft Punk, head on over to Amazon mp3 today if you don't already have a copy of Musique Vol. 1 (1993-2005); it's on sale for $1.99 as the daily deal.
