See Moir Music: June 2022

Surprise it's basically June now

Wow it's been awhile since I wrote one of these… For a rundown of the last few shows:

  • Disclosure was the best show of the last few months by a LONG shot, loved it.

  • I felt let down by Fred Again..

  • Honey Dijon is a must-see DJ, absolutely incredible.

  • DJ Koze was a chill vibe that I didn't expect and didn't really want.

  • I skipped Adam Port because 3 days in a row was indeed too many :(

  • Logic1000 cancelled her show :(

I was supposed to see Parra for Cuva and Christian Löffler this weekend but with COVID seriously spiking lately, I opted for early mornings and outdoor adventures instead of late nights with chill vibes inside. 

Where I’ll Be

I won't be much of anywhere the next month or so, so I've bolded the shows that I highly recommend OR the ones that I am going to in the further future.

September

  • Wed 9/7 – Less than Jake and Bowling for Soup at the UC Theatre

    • I really just need to buy tickets to this show and admit to myself that both of these bands are super duper fun and would be so fun live. But also I've seen them both before so maybe I don't need to go. We'll see. 

  • Thu 9/8 & Fri 9/9 – Cold Cave at the Chapel

  • Fri 9/9 – Placebo at Regency Ballroom

  • Sat 9/17 – Novo Amor at The Fillmore

  • Fri 9/30 & Sat 10/1 – Odesza with Sylvan Esso and Elderbrook at Shoreline

Way Later

  • Sun 10/23 – Lil Nas X at Billy G

    • I would LOVE to see him live but tickets are ~*demand priced*~ so instead of costing $65 + fees they're listed at $220, or more or less at any given time. Sigh.

  • Thu 11/17 – Everything Everything at GAMH

  • Wed 12/14 – Sunny Day Real Estate with The Appleseed Cast at Regency Ballroom

    • What year is it?

Recent great releases

I'm pretty behind on new stuff, so maybe send me some stuff you've liked recently?

  • Tourist put out a new album! I need to give it several more listens. 

  • Four Tet put out a new single. I haven't been looking at my pager so I've barely listened but what I heard was good.

  • Daphni also has a new single. 

  • TSHA put out a great fabric mix!

Shazamming while Dancing

I haven't really made it to any shows lately but uh the DJ that played at the IFSC climbing bouldering world cup weekend that myself and Pam went to in Salt Lake City had pretty great taste, it turned out, so here's our shazams from that weekend.
