The National drummer talks about 2019's I am Easy to Find, and the film that goes along with it, as well as the new music coming out later this year. He also talks about what has kept him in his home city of Cincinnati ahead of their concert date at Indy's TCU Amphitheater at White River State Park on Sunday, September 18th.
LNZNDRF is a band composed of Scott and Bryan Devendorf of The National, and Ben Lanz and Aaron Arntz of Beirut. They improvise their CAN-influenced drone-fuzz psych jams, then edit and structure them into long-form songs, with or without vocals. With pieces named for an isolated 1000 year-old tree and the changing climate and topography of the Xeric Steppe, or life partners against the world, the sounds might range from New Order’s non-dance floor hits with Krautrock undertones which may be well-suited for long road trips. LNZNDRF plays some of these expansive musical journeys from their latest, LNZNDRF II, remotely, and dreams aloud about playing basements of classical music venues and forests in the after-times. - Caryn Havlik Set list: "The Xeric Steppe", "You Still Rip", "Brace Yourself" "The Xeric Steppe":

Good Morning, Afternoon, Evening and welcome to Episode 16 of Adventures In New Music! Chris and Andy are back again to guide you through this weeks albums in their very own 'expert' way! After last weeks black metal fest we are back on more easy listening terrain this week!In Episode 16 we chat about:Our Two Skins by Gordi (Andy's choice)Andy picked this album after hearing the track Aeroplane Bathroom from this album. Gordi is the stage name of Sophie Payten, an Australian artist who is currently based in Sydney. As with her 2017 debut recording, Reservoir, this album was released on Jagjaguwar records, the home to acts such as Bon Iver, Angel Olsen and Sharron Van Etten. Described as Folktronica this album is a wonderfully personal affair inspired by and written during a fairly tumultuous period in Paytern's life. This is a real grower of an album and a mixed bag of genres which will reward you the more you listen to it. Life Drawing by Mr Ben & The Bens (Chris's choice)Self titled band leader Ben Hall begin this project back in 2012 in a barn in Lancaster in the North West of England. From there he's really put the time in and has self released seven albums as Mr Ben. Stylistically it's twee quirky indie pop (in a good way) along the lines of Belle and Sebastian, Gorky's Zygotic Mynci or The Shins. A “cloudy thread of narrative” is present throughout the album which Hall says is left open for listeners to map routes through it.Don't forget to check out our playlist to see which Gordi and Mr B&TB's tunes we've popped on there. Playlist available on the website or search Adventures In New Music on Spotify or Apple Music.

Northside-based percussionist Ben Sloan is beating on a standard drum kit, but the oscillating chords, birdcalls and Star Trek-esque bleeps sound anything but typical. "It's more like you're curating a set of sounds," the UC College-Conservatory of Music graduate said. "It's on the cusp of being a full composition and then also just improvising with the colors and sounds. Sometimes I don't really know how it's going to unfold. I have an idea and so sometimes if I hit it and it doesn't make the sound, I'm like, 'Oh, gotta roll with it that way.'" A sensory percussion trigger composed of a tiny mirror and light sensor sits atop each drumhead, which Sloan has mapped out into regions that produce various sounds, effects and loops when struck. Tapping the drum's rim acts like a keyboard's shift key, bringing up a whole new range of samples that Sloan has preprogrammed and created with audio software. "It allows you to play electronic music with the same dynamic flexibility that you get when you're playing a live drum set. I have them on these mesh heads, which are silent, but you can also put them on actual drum heads," he said. Sloan's stop by WCPO Lounge Acts is only the second time he's ever performed with this new technology, which he got the opportunity to explore when drummer Bryan Devendorf asked him to be artist-in-residence for the new National Homecoming festival coming to Smale Riverfront Park this weekend. "I've been doing a lot of production work and sitting in my room, which is also my studio with cables everywhere and crafting stuff and just making little ideas," Sloan said. "It was an opportunity to take that material and bring it to A Delicate Motor, which is a band I perform in under the leadership of Adam Petersen ... and collaboratively expand upon these little tiny ideas." "Mostly I'm really motivated by the fact that (Bryan Devendorf of The National) enjoys what I'm doing. The inspiration is like encouragement from somebody who is at the top of this kind of world. And he's like, 'You got it. You're good!'" Growing up in a musical household, Sloan was destined to gravitate toward the arts. His dad fed him a steady diet of good music and helped him set up his first recording studio, while he inherited his stepfather's drum kits and instincts. His mother founded ArtWorks, the nonprofit responsible for splashing murals across town for more than two decades, meaning he was "steeped in the arts" by the time he wrote his Walnut Hills High School entrance essay proclaiming Jimi Hendrix's drummer Mitch Mitchell as the historical figure he'd love to meet. "Maybe he would give me his drumsticks?" Sloan laughed. Since studying jazz at CCM, Sloan has played in several local and national music projects, including WHY?, Lazy Heart and Fresh Funk. He also teaches percussion at MYCincinnati, a free youth orchestra program in Price Hill. Last year, Sloan transformed scrapyard junk into children's gold when he dreamed Price Hill's Percussion Park into existence with a $10,000 grant from People's Liberty. Propane gas tanks became drums and pipes morphed into a marimba for kids to jam on at a formerly vacant lot on Warsaw Avenue. "It was a cool way to tie in what I do with my students at MYCincinnati with the neighborhood at-large. And then also we travel there every once in a while to play," Sloan said. Keep an eye out for A Delicate Motor's second album, Fellover My Own, coming in June. Sloan said they'll also record his work as artist-in-residence for The National Homecoming and make that available online.

Despite a deceptively unassuming stage persona, Bryan Devendorf's cleverly deconstructed beats are central to The National's sonic identity. He tells Joe about: growing up in Cincinnati, straddling the worlds of punk rock and jam bands, parenthood, white privilege, self improvement, and the intimate relationships at the core of The National.
In this episode, Mike and Mike discuss November 2017 featured artist Bryan Devendorf of the art-rock band The National. The post Modern Drummer Podcast Episode 113: The National's Bryan Devendorf, Embellishing the Swing Pattern, Drum Supply Aluminum Snare, and More appeared first on Modern Drummer Magazine.
The National's Matt Berninger and Bryan Devendorf join host Brian Hiatt to go deep on the making of their new album, Sleep Well Beast. They explain how weed, Donald Trump, Karl Rove inspired some of the songs, and why "rock n' roll in general is on its way out."
