Luego de su presentación en Buenos Aires , Diplo  se subió, junto a  Jillionaire, al escenario de Late Night With Jimmy Fallon con Amber Coffman de Dirty Projectors, the Roots y  Dave Longstreth  para interpretar Get Free . Mirá este explosivo show, acá. Major Lazer estuvo en la Argentina el pasado 5 de abril en el Planetario. Asímismo, el productor del sello  Mad Decent  realizó un DJ set el mismo día a la medianoche en  MSTRPLN. [...]

Major Lazer, The Roots y Dirty Projectors en Jimmy Fallon Ayer por la noche, Diplo llevó su proyecto Major Lazer al programa Late Night with Jimmy Fallo n, donde interpretó " Get Free " junto a The Roots y Amber Coffman y Dave Longstreth de Dirty Projectors . Checa la repetición a continuación. El segundo disco de Major Lazer , Free the Universe , saldrá a la venta la próxima semana vía Secretly [...]

If you caught any of Major Lazer's frantic, fun-as-hell festival-rocking live shows over the last few years, you likely saw girls twerking on speaker-risers, Skerritt Bwoy performing death-defying feats of daggering, and Diplo perched behind his DJ table, looking vaguely bemused at the whole spectacle. But the Major Lazer that appeared last night on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon was a very different beast. Diplo, all suited up, played keyboard on the slow, sultry reggae song " Get Free " while Dirty Projectors singer Amber Coffman cooed on the mic, her bandmate Dave Longstreth held down guitar duties, [...]

Dirty Projectors stopped by Conan's last night. Still riding high on last year's well received Swing Lo Magellan , the band performed the album's opening song, "Offspring Are Blank" on "Conan". Did the gingery host enjoy the Dirty Projectors ' live [...]

O Dirty Projectors continua com o pé no acelerador, depois de passar pelo Brasil com a turnê de divulgação do Swing Lo Magellan , um dos mais belos registros musicais desse ano, a banda nova-iorquina, liberou ontem em parceria com a Pitchfork Tv seu mais novo vídeo para a faixa Offspring Are Blank . O clipe de quatro minutos traz Dave Longstreth caminhando por um aterro vestindo, o que parece ser, uma capa de proteção contra radiação. Quando a câmera não está no vocalista corta para cenas em que a [...]

With all of the hype pointed in the direction for Dirty Projectors and Animal Collective in 2009 for their respective albums, Bitte Orca and Merriweather Post Pavilion, you would have thought that 2012 would have seen as much hype and insane hyperbole. But it wasn't like that at all. [...]

American experimental pop group DIRTY PROJECTORS is back with an enjoyable video clip for Offspring Are Blank, the opener for the bands recent album Swing Lo Magellan. Back in the summer they’ve already presented us a clip for About To Die, which was taken from the group’s short film Hi Custodian. Now comes more footage from

A few months ago, Dirty Projectors frontman Dave Longstreth released his Hi Custodian short film, which used a bunch of songs from the band's Swing Lo Magellan album. And now, like the " About To Die " video before it, the video for the surprisingly hard-rocking album opener "Offspring Are Blank" is built entirely from footage shot for Hi Custodian . This one, which is beautifully shot, has a whole lot of a radiation-suited Longstreth hanging out at a landfill and of the band playing at the [...]

Win our top  31 albums of 2012 ! Read the original review Retreating from the mass populous into the woods, Dirty Projectors accumulated a sum of 40 songs, choosing a dozen that touch on love, anxiety, passion, and the increasingly changing world around us. Analyzing the state of the economy in " Gun Has No Trigger " ,  the tragic dystopian love story of  "Just From Chevron" , and the heartbreaking beauty of the lullaby title track, Swing Lo Magellen [...]

Love for the Dirty Projectors isn’t about to die anytime soon. Domino, 2012 7.8 / 10.0 After releasing arguably their best album, Bitte Orca , in 2009, Dirty Projectors had some big expectations to live up to on Swing Lo Magellan. Fortunately, the band didn’t [...]

Let's say, just for the sake of argument, that you have not yet carved out the 20 minutes necessary to watch Hi Custodian , the massive and ambitious mini-movie that Dave Longstreth directed, which stitches together much of the new Dirty Projectors album Swing Lo Magellan . You will be pleased to learn, then, that the new video for the ornately tricky Swing Lo Magellan track "About To Die" compresses much of that movie, especially the parts with Longstreth in a hospital bed, into a digestible four-minute chunk. [...]

We didn't get to see too many mind-boggling short-form videos this week, but we did get one long one in which one of our greatest, most ambitious indie bands takes its packed-to-bursting, unapologetically pretentious musical maximalism to the screen, staying bizarre and compelling throughout. That alone makes it a pretty good week. Check for our picks below. Read More...

Filed under: News , Video YouTube The night was young. Short-shorted hip kids stood anxiously in line outside New York City's Landmark Sunshine Theater, humming the asymmetrical melodies of the Dirty Projectors . They were there to see the band's puppet master Dave Longstreth and the premiere of his first short film, "Hi Custodian" -- a bizarre musical flick that swims through surreal scenes about death in front of a California backdrop.

Earlier this summer, Dirty Projectors announced the existence of their Hi Custodian short film project, a 20-minute, Dave Longstreth-directed clip that's basically the Dirty Projectors' " Runaway ." The entire group stars, and the aesthetic is definitely a blown-out extension of the " Gun Has No Trigger " video, which Longstreth also directed. Head below to watch it. Read More...

Fresh off their seventh full-length,  Swing Lo Magellan , Brooklyn's  Dirty Projectors  seem to keep us on our feet with an ongoing North American tour - and wait - a new single! "Buckle Up" , a limited edition 73, is the six-piece's rawest effort to date: clocking at just under two minutes, it's the band's most lo-fi attempt. The track, not in typical  Dirty Projectors -style, has lead singer/guitarist  Dave Longstreth 's vocals and guitar work [...]

Dave Longstreth is the leader of a cult/harem called the Dirty Projectors . Many claim that it is a 'buzzband', but insiders know that the altbaguettes in the band are basically brainwashed and enslaved, forced to 'ooh' and 'aahhh' in the background while he sings his little heart out. Without the altbaguettes, many ppl wouldn't even be interested in the Dirty Projectors . Most of their shows are filled with bros wanting to 'check out' that premium alt poontang on stage making mad O-faces. Anyways, between album cycles, Angel Deradoorian left the [...]
