My eyes were open for a full five minutes before I closed them again, and suddenly 10:30 a.m. became 2 p.m. Goddam it. In what seemed like the literal blink of an eye, a dozen wonderful Friday performances became impossible to get to, everything from Shannon and the Clams at Barbarella, to Useless Eaters/Surgeons/Shark Toys/Peach Kelli Pop/Guantanamo Baywatch at the Cherrywood, to fucking Billy Bragg at Waterloo Records! Oh my god, how could I have missed Billy Bragg?!? This being SXSW, he no doubt played a jam-packed but intimate show, [...]
Emperor X peeled a grapefruit in one shot before starting his set at the Sound Dessert SXSW day party. "Since this is a morning show I brought grapefruit and almonds for everyone. Help yourself". As the affable singer began his set, fans clustered around, singing along, shouting out requests and yes, helping themselves to a fresh wedge of citrus. Alternating from acoustic to electric, Emperor X played a number of favorites from Western Teleport including, "Allahu Akbar" and "Erica Western Teleport." Closing out the set with the latter, Emperor X dropped [...]

SXSW started off for me this year not with a bang, but a whimper: a faint little squeak, like the air slowly leaking out of a whoopee cushion. By Tuesday, the rock and DJ people had yet to arrive in Austin, yet the movie/TV/comedy folks from SXSW's first and more "official" leg (including my favorite comedians, e.g. James Adomian, Josh Fadem, and Johnny Pemberton ) had already split. This town was coming like a ghost town. And so Tuesday afternoon at Spider House's indoor lounge started off feeling a little lonely. The first act, solo guitar strummer [...]
As much as I can get carried away by the world of power pop at times, there's always been a soft spot in my heart for great songwriters; C. Matheny is one such writer, writing much like John Darnielle of Mountain Goats . His group, Emperor X , is riding a high note after the release of Western Teleport last year, and will probably continue on a high note as Bar None Records are re-releasing their old albums for the masses. I think [...]
Emperor X , the noise/folk project of C. R. Matheny, has a wonderfully delightful new album out called "Western Teleport" that I've have not stopped listening to since I got it. Emperor X mainly uses an acoustic guitar and a dynamic microphone, but also uses a lot of percussive and electronic instruments. The diversity of the subject matter of the songs goes all over the place from plate tectonics to fixing broken air conditioners. But the coolest part is that he decided to make a scavenger hunt with his fans by making plastic containers or "nodes" [...]

eingestreut (488): emperor x - tour 2013
im dezember 2011 suchte ich nach worten zum album "western teleport" des jungen mannes c.r. matheny aka emperor x und schrieb u.a.: "kapriziöse brillanz wird ihm unterstellt, er sei eine mischung aus daniel johnston und dan deacon, seine songs seien catchy und mit lyrics unterlegt, die das herzchen anschlagen. er war gern gesehener gast in gallerien, bücherläden, universitäten, collegeradios usw., teilte aber die bühne auch schon mit sebadoh, nada surf, casiotone for the painfully alone oder john vanderslice, der ihn als "a serious genuis" bezeichnete, nachdem beide eine tour absolviert hatten.

20 Questions: Emperor X + "Raytracer" MP3 (PopMatters Premiere)
Remember back in high school when your science teacher was also an acclaimed avant-indie-folk artist who promoted his latest album by burying purple audio cassettes all across North America and leaving cryptic GPS coordinates online so that people could try and find them? Me too.

neue töne (1082): emperor x
für ihn sicher ein ritterschlag, aber noise pop saboteur genannt zu werden, gefällt vermutlich nicht jedem. bei c.r. matheny aka emperor x aber sollte sich der groll sparsam halten. er lotet schließlich grenzen aus und wird es gewohnt sein, dass nicht alles bei allen widerspruchslos ankommt. frühe meinungsmacher sind aber immerhin tiny mix tapes oder pitchfork, die seine ersten lofi speedfolk alben abfeierten. kapriziöse brillanz wird ihm unterstellt, er sei eine mischung aus daniel johnston und dan deacon, seine songs seien catchy und mit lyrics unterlegt, die das herzchen anschlagen. er war gern gesehener gast in gallerien, bücherläden, [...]

glotzt nicht so romantisch (267): remora / san cisco / jonquil / stealing sheep / emperor x
den postapocalyptic pop, den sie spielen, kriegst du nicht an jeder straßenecke geboten, hinzu kommt eine nicht minder offensive politische ausrichtung, "scara bring hope" hieß das letzte album auf silber records : remora : etwas relaxter kommen da schon diese junge menschen daher, sie stammen aus fremantle west australia und haben völlig entspannt mal ihr eigenes label am start, island city records wird dann wohl auch in 2012 die erste ep "awkward" herausbringen: san cisco : es [...]
