Ever since they released their debut full-length I Live Here Now with the help of recording audiophile Jon Low of Miner Street Recording (The War on Drugs, The National, etc.), who is currently working on The Menzingers’ next LP, Americana rock five-piece Oldermost has managed to mature their sound and unleash something that is complex and exciting. South Philly’s Boot & Saddle will be the perfect intimate venue for listening to incendiary songs like "Close to the Fire" and "Once I Left." And it will also be a great venue to catch the musings of multi-string virtuoso Jesse Sparhawk. The Boot & Saddle, 1131 S. Broad St, 9PM, $10, 21+ – Bill McThrill

Here’s a moving and pretty adorable new music video from Reek (a.k.a. Rookie McFly) for the track "Cloud 9," which is off his forthcoming LP F.a.n.T.a.s.y. that will also have collborations with Philly hip-hop vets Freeway and Reef The Lost Cauze. The single and video is dedicated to his cousin Raheem "Muck" Williams, who had passed away from a fatal car accident. It was directed by Quo Productions’ Chop Mosley and Sanfordd Jenkins. You’ll also notice South Philly’s Beautiful World Syndicate and Lorenzo’s getting a little love in the footage. Also some love goes out to his mom for sporting a Nirvana t-shirt. Enjoy!

This is one of the many reasons why we love rjd2. Get into the mind of producer/DJ/label owner/multi-istrumentalist Ramble John Krohn as he talks about vinyl collecting in Fuse TV’s Crate Diggers! And yes, we are very effin’ jealous of his collection.

Locals Psychic Teens are the kind of band that made stereotypical 1950’s housewives faint. Fresh off their sophomore release COME (SRA Records), the group’s music is an application of the most self-aware sort of psychedelic post-punk drenched in the reckless abandon of 80’s metal – specifically, imagine Bauhaus and Shadowy Men on a Shadowy Planet in a blender. Psychic Teens are bringing their uniquely grungy, wry and downright furious brand of prog-punk to Yarga’s Basement, nestled in our favorite Penn fraternity, in what is sure to be an all-out blitzkrieg on your ability to hear the next day. They’ll be joined by Michigan’s Brief Candles, the recently re-formed Oh, Adeona, and You’re Fired, a brand new endeavor born from Philly noise-rock specialists Heavy Medical. BTW: If this lineup doesn’t get you there promptly on time, there has also been a promise of something special for the first 30 people in the door. Yarga’s Basement, (Please contact yargaproductions@gmail.com for more info.), 9pm, All Ages – Daniel Ludwig

Morphine Records is planning to release a trilogy of works from avant-garde electronic composer Charles Cohen. The first will be his album The Middle Distance (which was recorded between 1979 and 1988), then Group Motion (a live recording of a collaboration with a Philadelphia dance troupe using two of the rarest synthesizers in the world, the Buchla Music Easel and the Buchla 700 series), and finally the double LP Music for Dance and Theater (which was also recorded between 1979 and 1988). Below is the opening track from The Middle Distance called "Club Revival Performance."

Here’s another new track, "Beyond Your Bones," from Far-Out Fangtooth‘s forthcoming LP Borrowed Time, due out on October 29 via SiltBreeze. The album was mixed by Uniform Recording’s Jeff Zeigler and produced by Residuels/Moon Women‘s Justin Pittney. Far Out-Fangtooth will be celebrating their record’s release on Saturday, November 2 at The Boot & Saddle.
