This message below is from Children’s Welfare Division, Social Health & Welfare Department, Fukushima Prefecture, where all donations will be sent to:

“Many children lost their parents through the Great East Japan Earthquake in Fukushima Prefecture.
In addition, many children were forced to leave their familiar hometowns due to the nuclear disaster, and their loss experiences caused a heavy burden to the children’s minds.

However, the prefecture is determined to support them for a long period of time with your goodwill donations so that they will be able to steadily go forward without surrendering their dreams that they used to have before the disaster in the midst of such severe circumstances.”

日本語
”本県では、東日本大震災により、多くの子どもたちが親を失いました。
加えて、原子力災害により、住み慣れた土地からも離れなければならない子どもたちも多く、様々な喪失体験により、幼い心に多大なる負担がかかっています。

しかしながら、このような状況においても、子どもたちが震災前に抱いていたそれぞれの夢をあきらめることなく、着実に前に進んでいくことができるよう、皆様からの善意の寄附をいただき、長期的な支援を行っていきたいと考えております。”

This is the benefit event for children in Fukushima to give hope and support to have education. To encourage and help them to pursue their dream.

Thank you so much for your support.
ご支援ありがとうございます。

Fat Albert Einstein | After the Beep

After the Beep
November 10. 2011
Carbon, Culver City

I had a lot of fun catching up with Carmen, Chris V., Jolie, Heather, Carla, Jason, and Chris and everyone.
We were out for Chris V aka Fat Albert Einstein’s record release party for After the Beep.

Vinyl and CD’s  and tapes for sale!
(You probably will be able to buy your copy at Record Surplus where Chris works.)

Fat Albert Einstein

Hailing from the suburbs of Philadelphia, Los Angeles resident Christopher Vagnoni a.k.a. Fat Albert Einstein is a multi-instrumentalist composer/producer with a taste for dusty rhythm driven songs, reminiscent of funky cross genre soundtrack themes. Christopher plays drums and melodica in the dubbers rock band Team Scrub, who was Aloe Blacc’s backing band for a brief stint. As Fat Al, he has worked with Clutchy Hopkins, the Kone and Stoup of Jedi Mind Tricks. Currently signed on Switchstance Recordings, he will be releasing his new project AFTER THE BEEP on 11/11/11.

Raised as a visual artist, drawing, painting and sculpting, music came later in life. “I realized I can apply similar aesthetics used in visual composition in my song composition. I always enjoy getting my hands dirty when I work, so that emotions may be felt in a graphic sense. Live instruments offer me this sensation. Like sculpture and painting, you can feel intention left in the piece, be it through a strong gestural stoke or by taking a breath and pausing, stepping back, so to leave a moment naked and raw in its silence. This is important to me. This is what I know.”

Fat Al is the resident DJ at Largo in Los Angeles, selecting vinyl only sets for a long list of musicians, comedians and actors such as: Sarah Silverman, Jon Brion, Aziz Anzari, Zach Galifanakis, Steve Martin, Louis CK, Larry Coryell, Brad Meldau, Nels Cline, Larry David, Andrew Bird, Adele, Fiona Apple, Jack Black and Will Farrell.

I love my friends!

Fat Albert Einstein – After The Beep – Out now!
11.11.2011 11:11

Greetings,
Today marks a very special day for us. It’s 11/11/11 and we’re excited to present you “After The Beep“, the album of our first non-german artist “Fat Albert Einstein” from Los Angeles. A few years ago Kabanjak dug in the realms of good old MySpace and ran into him. After a bunch of messages both started to work on songs together and this experience will be released next year. But Fat Albert also sent us a record he made during his hitchhikings through the USA. He took answering machine tapes he found in Thrift Stores and layered them over his earthy drums and melodica chants. We were so stoked about this dirty recordings that we decided to put it out. Now it’s here and it’s like a gift we made us ourself for our 10th label anniversary.
