I am here to apologize for slightly detracting from your concert experience all year long. Why? I take photos at shows. I know it can be annoying. That said, I try my best to keep it to a minimum and usually don't use a flash (and then ramp up the contrast and exposure later). Here are my favorite 12 photos from 2011.

mp3: Nihiti - Pinko Morning Nihiti are probably one of the most mysterious and compelling bands working in New York right now.

We thrilled and honored to have these guys at our first of three CMJ shows this week, Wednesday at Tandem Bar, Bushwick. The [...]

Chrome Sparks = Heart and Soul There's been a lot of space on Smoke Don't Smoke inadvertently committed to the tunes coming from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Something that only over time do you find yourself wondering why there is such a concentrated collective of good music. Well when getting some serious hang time with Jeremy Malvin, aka Chrome Sparks , at SXSW this last year, he had brought up a great idea of putting together a compilation featuring some of these amazing artists. Of [...]

Ann Arbor, Michigan electro wunderkind Cory Levinson aka Kohwi 's incredible full-length Hidden Trees was released late last year on cassette via the stellar Wonder Beard Tapes (and the tape is still available over here ). And though y'all know we're really into cassettes here at NFOP, the fact that Kohwi's fine work is about to get an additional vinyl treatment is nonetheless exciting news. This early summer, Black Tent Press will re-release Hidden Trees as an LP (that's the cover art above) with a bonus CD that [...]
Wired - Islands (Kohwi Remix) kohwi - Reeling The Warmth Shortly before his big vinyl release I got the chance to Skype with Cory Levinson of Kohwi fame. Laughs were had, words were shared, and I bestow upon you the knowledge I gained from this endeavor. When did you start making music, is Kohwi your first project? Kind of a funny story, grew up skiing in Vermont. One winter I had weekend job working in a waffle hut by the chairlift. So it was me [...]

Kohwi - Mesa Kohwi - Every Morning (Sugar Ray cover) Our bud Cory Levinson, aka Kohwi, has been taking classes abroad this semester in music technology and all around how to kick ass. The most recent of his designs is the TED, tangible electrophonic drumstick, which hosts a filter, pitch-shifter, and delay within that sweet shaft. In more hi52ing updates, Kohwi's own Hidden Trees is finding a vinyl release this summer via Black Tent Press and his European tour begins today! Tour dates after the jump, download the [...]
So, another Record Store Day come and gone. I made a few of purchases at Sound Fix and Permanent Records (and saw EULA play). I have to admit I was really not that motivated to gobble up RSD exclusives. I just bought a few albums that I knew I would want to listen to on vinyl (including one classic double LP ). My purchases follow... Hardcore Will Never Die, But You Will by Mogwai [...]
Kohwi is Cory Levinson - sonic arts and math academic by day / electro-acoustic musician by night. Self-described as psychedelic sleep music. Music for headphones.

Kohwi - Every Morning (Sugar Ray Cover) We can all thank Kohwi for turning something as lame as Sugar Ray's "Every Morning" into a quite stunning track. This is Kohwi's version of the song: a tropical vacation of uplifting synths paired with dreamy vocals and an elaborate beat. "Every Morning" is off of Hidden Trees Remixes + Extras which can be downloaded for free along with the whole album over at Bandcamp . This just really proves that perhaps it's not so bad to remember the 90s... Photography by [...]
