EV2BK Live Music – BRAHMS at the Convent with a Neon Indian

Recently it seems that Stereogum has been sweating a lot of the bands that we already wrote about over here at EV2BK. Another reason to come here first, I suppose. But I think they made up for it yesterday, by posting this hot remix of Neon Indian‘s “Psychic Chasms” by BRAHMS:

Neon Indian – Psychic Chasms (BRAHMS remix):

With just a simple addition of the repeated call “Oh OH oh,” Cale Parks’ voice has warmed the “terminally chill” track and turned it into a catchy pop hook. I’m feeling it, BRAHMS.

As an extra bonus, here is a video of BRAHMS performing “Another Time” at Fat Baby for the Convent store opening party, which was a pretty raucous affair (I guess that happens when they’re serving free vodka all night). The sound quality is mostly pretty good, apart from not being able to hear the guitar as loudly as we would have hoped. Sorry about that, Drew (Robinson)!

More videos from the show, including a track from Beach Fossils, are up on our YouTube Channel.

Jam of the Day – Make Brahms Do Right

Start your Friday off right by checking out this video featuring a new track from Brahms called “Make Me Do Right,” from their performance on January 22, 2010 at Glasslands with Boy Crisis and Apache Beat. Brahms just posted a couple hot new tracks on their myspace page (especially check out “Subtext Is Deadly”), or you can download all 4 demo tracks from their website for the low price of your email address.

Oh and what the hell, here’s another video of “Toward the Ghost” from the same show.

In fact, we have a bunch more of these videos that we’ll be posting from that show over the next couple weeks, so be on the lookout for that. All the videos were shot in HD by our friend Jovan Todorovic from Belgrade. Check out his commercials for MTV Adria, they’re hilarious!

Jam of the Day – Brahms in Bushwick

No, we aren’t referring to Johannes, the super famous Romantic period composer, but rather the new band Brahms based in Brooklyn. Building on the “electro-pop” sound of his recent solo work, Cale Parks formed this new band with Eric Lyle Lodwick and Drew Montag Robinson (who were already playing live with him recently) for the new year, and they have been getting some great buzz after their recent shows including one at Glasslands a couple of weeks ago with Boy Crisis, Telepathe, and Apache Beat:

Brahms is playing again tonight at Tandem in Bushwick, as part of The Sky Report Winter Showcase.

But if you can’t make it to the show, you can download two demos from the band’s website, for the price of your email address. So go over there and do it, you will like what you hear. In fact, here’s one of the jams right now, just to prove it to you.
