I get so mad sometimes



New York is hard to deal with. With so much day/night musicevent stuff to choose from, I get overwhelmed and just crawl into bed defeated and confused. Here is another thing I wanted to go to ... but didn't. God bless NPR

In an interview with host David Garland, Greg Saunier of Deerhoof admitted that he has recently liberally taken ideas from Igor Stravinsky. What more perfect pairing than this Wordless Music Series concert of the forward-thinking indie rock band Deerhoof and a wild re-imagining of Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring by the Metropolis Ensemble? The unlikely playbill was recorded live by WNYC at the Prospect Park Bandshell in Brooklyn, N.Y.

Music:
Hear the Metropolis Ensemble perform The Rite: Remixed.
Hear the Deerhoof Concert
