Turn Down for Gatsby

Formal attire is encouraged for those attending Radio Silence's intimate Great Gatsby Loft Party tonight. Known as the Bay Area magazine where literature meets rock 'n' roll, Radio Silence features stories and musings and interviews and fiction on all things music-related. Griel Marcus said it is the magazine "people have been waiting for for fifty years." The theme of the loft party is The Great Gatsby, so perhaps this is the party people have been waiting for, for about 90 years. Regardless how long you've been waiting for it, the party's going to feature live jazz from S.F.'s Gaucho gypsy jazz band and a conversation between Fresh Air book critic Maureen Corrigan and Radio Silence editor Dan Stone. Tickets include an open bar; deluxe tickets include an open bar and a signed copy of Corrigan's new book, So We Read On: How the Great Gatsby Came to Be and Why It Endures. Ah, there's the connection. Put on your roaring '20s finest and get to this party, you beautiful little fool.

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
