If you’ve picked up the newest issue of the New Yorker — one of my favorite magazines, by the way! — you may have noticed that KH005 artist Computer Magic got a little love from the Night Life crew! The band’s show this Wednesday, November 24 at Pianos in NYC was featured as a show to catch and was filled with lots of glowing complements! (Seriously! Being called an act with “a fully formed set of aesthetic concerns” is pretty incredible by any standard.) The band has also been featured on Stereogum a handful of times.
Our tape with the Brooklyn-based one-girl recording project of Danielle Johnson — which expands to a band for live performances — will be the first-ever physical Computer Magic release! We can’t tell you everything about KH005 just yet, but this will be totally different from any release we’ve done so far! Look for Computer’s Magic’s Get a Job in January 2011 — right after team Kill/Hurt gets back from the holidays!
