here's what's going on NOW here in pittsburgh regarding electro
and synthpop. 
not 'retro' but rather, current artists doing amazing music, live!

Wed October 13
SOLVENT  
synthpop-electro king from Toronto. started on his own label Suction
Records. Released an LP 3 years ago on Morr Music (German-based label
for artists such as Lali Puna, Ms Jones Soda and Mum). Released an EP
on Ersatz Audio (home of Adult and Tamion 12 Inch). Now he has a new
CD "Apples and Synthesizers", on Ghostly International (named one of
the year's hot labels by Rolling Stone!). Do you like the pure synthpop
sound of the first two Depeche mode albums? This will move you.

with US IDM artist LUSINE (also on Ghostly, downtempo stuff compared
to Boards of Canada)
plus Eko Farm and Syne Lapse Variate
8 pm  $10  all ages  Garfield Artworks, 4931 Penn Ave  
mention the goth list and get $3 off admission!

and....

Fri October 15
CHROMEO
amazing electro-funk duo from Brooklyn, new CD "She's In Control" on
Vice Records. It sounds like the vocoder funk disco of the 80s - remember
Rockwell and Laura Branigan, Sparks and EBN OZN? But it's brand new,
created by an Arab and a Jew. Some of the sexiest dance stuff you'll hear
this year, going beyond the strictures of the electroclash scene.
This will be your guilty pleasure, a maniac on the dancefloor.

with Head of Femur (members of Bright Eyes and Lullaby for Working Class)
and Low FLying Owls (Pink Floydian shoegaze)
8 pm   $8  all ages  Garfield Artworks, 4931 Penn Ave
mention the goth list and get $1 off admission!
