Love-Lore was recorded live in the studio over a single afternoon at Rivington Rehearsal Studios in New York City. The album contains a medley of 43 covers, which range from the Velvet Underground to Krzysztof Penderecki.
Muindi Fanuel Muindi wrote an essay to accompany the release, while Benjamin Piekut wrote the liner notes. “Deerhoof is not the future of music and doesn’t want to be — they simply want to embrace you, here and now,...

If you think you’ve seen everything ever directed by Martin Scorsese, then you might want to head out to this special screening of two obscure documentaries the director made in the 1970s: Italianamerican and American Boy: A Profile of Steven Prince. These films are currently unavailable on video and extremely hard to see.
Italianamerican (1974) has been described by Scorsese as “the best film I ever made.” It’s a documentary portrait of his parents, Charles and Catherine, both of whom have had numerous cameos in their son’s more famous films. The documentary is both an intimate look at the Scorsese family and a commentary on the immigrant experience in America.
(On a personal note, I remember seeing Italianamerican way back in film school about 20 years ago, and while much of the film...

Mauricio Kagel (1931-2008) was a German-Argentine avant-garde composer who made films of performances of his compositions. Two-Man Orchestra (Zwei-Mann-Orchester) features two men contained within giant contraptions that contain over 250 instruments.
Completely encased in these massive machines, the performers must use every part of their body — fingers, feet, legs, heads, et. al. — to “play” their instruments. As Film Love describes, “the performers evoke everything from Charlie Chaplin to circus music to complete atonality in a virtuoso physical and musical feat.”
Zwei-Mann-Orchester (Two-Man Orchestra) (film, 1973, 71 minutes)

For your post-Christmas enjoyment, here’s a more pagan-y ode to the winter holidays. The song is “Solstice” by Andy Ditzler; a chipper ’60s pop sounding tune about Mr. Wodan, Saturnalia and Sol Invictus; with a music video directed by underground film legend George Kuchar.
The video is bright and chaotic, with Kuchar really focusing in on the “fertility rites” part of the lyrics in the first half. It’s quite the Christmas orgy where the colors and the chick lying on the floor on her back reminds me of the ending of Sins of the Fleshapoids, the classic film directed by George’s twin brother Mike. Then, in the second half during the sacrifice of the bull, the headdress of another actress coupled with the sunny background is reminiscent of the desert-set sequences in Kenneth Anger’s Lucifer Rising.
Overall, it’s a cute, happy, cheery song and video.

Joe Dante presenting "The Movie Orgy" in L.A., a rare stateside appearance of Japanese auteur Hirokazu Kore-eda for a retrospective in New York and the Fantastic Fest in Austin are just a few of the events that serve as the perfect antidote for the endless stream of summertime sequels and toy-based franchises.
