Summer isn’t over until this gig happens. Great one-two of off-kilter beauty here: Ducktails is the dreamy side project of Real Estate’s Matthew Mondanile,\u00a0who wrings some fine music out of droning bedroom jamz\u00a0and has received a lotta plays of WFMU. Dolphins Into The Future is the aqua-obsessed (not that Aqua) pseudonym of Lieven Martens, who mixes watery found sounds with head-tripping other noises, to the delight of the Wire and more. Hazy sunshine predicted around the Cube until the wee small hours. Stay here forever.<\/p>\n

Pure phase and distorted pop logic from two acts who have emerged from the passing kriss-krossed currents of cheap AM pop, distressed easy listening and a weird love for 90’s electronica. Sounds that endure and refresh.<\/div>\n

Ducktails<\/a>is Matthew Mondanile from New Jersey, who makes raw, mostly instrumental pop music that is two parts heart to one part hypnagogic: sweet, dewy analogue drones, huggable guitar figures that nuzzle at classic rock\u2019s sensitive bosom, and simple tin machine rhythms help propel Mondanile\u2019s present into the warm fuzz of the past. Also one of subsurface pop gang Real Estate, and with strong links to the Skaters\/Olde English Spelling Bee axis of psychedelic semi-recall, check last year\u2019s \u201cLandscapes\u201d album for the heartiest portion of Ducktails soup yet, and get ready to slurp yerself happy.<\/p>\n

Fading in from Flanders, Belgium, Dolphins into the Future<\/a>\u00a0plunges us yet further down the memory well. By turns strange, primal, intimate and transcendental, this is a beautifully drowsy Lowlands take on James Ferraro\u2019s more reflective moments of spooled quasi-devotional psych, with swooning prose from The Wire for last album proper \u201cThe Music Of Belief\u201d and a whole library of tapes and CDRs to get lost in besides. \u201cCamp-fiery mind music that sounds like taking a bird-watching nature hike in a sequencer\u201d, froths Impose Magazine, not incorrectly.<\/p>\n

Plus support from Bristol’s very own Woodtripper<\/a><\/p>\n

Part of Arnolfini<\/a>‘s ‘Time Crisis’ season<\/p>\n
