As a tribute to the late Charlie Cooper (of Telafon Tel Aviv), Fhloston Paradigm released an EP.  The 2 song release (on King Britt’s FiveSixMedia) is a tribute to the impression Charlie Cooper left behind, as well as the influence Telafon Tel Aviv had on Fhloston Paradigm.

After ATF’s Joshua Sidney caught the once viral footage of Rage Against the Machine’s acapella performance at the Ripple Effect during the RNC in September of last year, Minneapolis-based filmmaker Chris Strouth reached out to us about the ‘mixtape’ documentary he was putting together using other people’s footage of the convention.

His film Unconvention will premiere today as part of the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Film Festival and will feature ATF’s footage of the Rage performance. For local Minneapolis residents, the film is playing this afternoon at St. Anthony Main at 5:15. Check out the trailer:

When we were putting together the ATF 1yr celebration, we knew it wouldn’t be a dance night without MPLS up-and-comer, DJ So Gold. Thankfully he was kind enough to apply his remixing skills to Minneapolis’ newest buzz band Solid Gold. Check out the So Gold remix of the single “Get Over It”.
