The group So Percussion performed on These Days this past Wednesday, and we've got the video to prove it! These guys can turn anything into a percussive instrument - an ethernet port, duct tape, an amplified cactus, and flower pots are all in their repertoire. They've worked with cutting edge composers in new music and with the electronic duo and Bj?rk collaborators, Matmos.
So Percussion are playing the Carlsbad Music Festival this weekend so you can check them out there. Here's the Pitchfork review of their latest album, Amid the Noise . We here at These Days liked the album so much that we made So Percussion our featured artist on today's show -- which means we played their music throughout the two hours.
They're fascinating guys with a lot to say about how they make music. Now you can enjoy watching them....
