Hey all,
This is what's happening this week at XYC, take a peek:
 
On Tonight's Inside Track, NC label New Body Tapes brings us Our Shadows Will Walk the latest release from Belgian dark techno producer Damaskin. Get ready for classic, trance-like repetitive bangers followed by longform dark ambiance.
 
Tune in to NSE this Friday for a carniverous night of bangin’ ballroom, footwork, and outsider house from the plush and very cute DJ Webkinz of Baltimore, MD. You’ll hear from the likes of Le1f’s producer LSDXOXO, morsels from 1080p’s roster including Body-San, J Albert, and Mongo Skato as well as some footwork up-and-comers (DJ Earl, Kush Jones, DJ Manny, Cakedog and DJ Chap), and some DJ Rashad (R.I.P) deep cuts. 
 
This fall on Hell or High Water, we are taking a close look at artists and bands who either had a connection to or a strong influence on North Carolina's (both historical and modern) music industry and culture, highlighting both our state's well known personalities and hidden gems. Tune in this Sunday for the sweet blues from the famous guitarist, singer and North Carolina native, Etta Baker.
 
On Monday's Outside Track we'll be playing the recently issued recording of Julius Eastman's Femenine. Facing prejudice as a black gay man and for the confrontational nature of his performances, he was largely forgotten at the time of his death. Fortunately, there has been a recent growing interest in his work and with that comes this recently discovered performance from 1974. Femenine is a triumph of minimalism, featuring a repeated motif of mallet percussion and bells that extend through the entire piece and slowly shifting, improvisational lines from piano, woodwinds, and synthesizer.
