Last Saturday, James Pants graced SF with his space-disco-elektric presence at Amnesia Bar. Damn, it was a sick show. Probably one of the best sets I've seen in a minute.
I admit that I saw his name in the most recent Stones Throw newsletter and had his mix populate my podcasts, but I slept on it!!! As penance I'm trying to catch up on all the time I didn't spend listening to his Music From the Forest mix. I actually made dinner with "We're Through" just repeating over an over for 30 minutes; yes, i AM just that lazy but he's also just that listenable.
Don't make the mistake I did. James Pants needs to get checked out. He pumps some of the grooviest 80s synthesis out there and rarely relies on samples. Plus it's refreshing that he reps a NW hesher style, you know, all wrapped up in a thick lumber and dickies instead of high tops, tight mustard colored pants, asymetrical hair, or neon.
If you like James Pants, I also suggest you check out his brother from another mother, Dam Funk, also on Stones Throw and equally as hot. Dam Funk's Burn Rubber was a hot joint that came out late 2007 on the Baron Zen at the Mall Remixes.

A living breathing Pants Party! What kind of pants did the insomniacs wear to the amnesia? Were many people panting from the dancing? Unfortunately for me, rather than trying The Pants on myself, I was making jalapeños tacos and drinking myself stone cold to this avoidable movie, tt0116671 . Where I learned you can chill and kill simultaneously by the way. Keep up the staying up and don't sleep!
