ANWEN PARROTT

For months, you’ve seen the recognizable posters covering bulletin boards and taped to store windows. You’ve read insightful, funny interviews with local acts and big names. You’ve heard classmates and coworkers buzzing about all aspects of The Pygmalion Festival – and now, finally, one of the most memorable weekends of the year is here. As buzz managing editor Sean Neumann quipped: It’s the most wonderful time of the year. As the issue in your hands details, the 2015 installment of Pygmalion is more than a weekend, and it extends far beyond the (stellar) music alone. From Wednesday through Sunday, Champaign-Urbana will be filled with artists and innovators in fields ranging from music to technology, from literature to ceramic arts (and probably most sub-categories of art in between). A five-day festival featuring that much talent takes, quite literally, a town to pull together. Dozens of local organizations – bars, world-famous concert halls, coffee shops, lecture halls, art galleries– will be housing events, and though invisible during the event itself, an extensive team of people have worked tirelessly for the better part of a year to plan and coordinate the festivities. The long hours that these people have poured into making Pygmalion happen probably won’t be the first thing on your mind during the festival; you’ll be too busy enjoying the gorgeous Fall weather (which is a particularly beautiful time of year in our Midwestern town), listening to some of your favorite bands play and hearing about the revolutionary efforts of a new start up. But after this glorified weekend has come to a close and the streets of Champaign have cleared, I hope that these people, who care deeply about both creative expression and our community, are recipients of your thanks. And the best way to thank them might be an easy one: support this community, whether that be through attending the next show that your favorite local band plays, regularly visiting one of the fantastic restaurants that fed you when you were drunk and hungry on Saturday night or purchasing a piece of artwork by a talented artist you met at the Made Fest. A weekend of C-U love and appreciation is in store for us – but that doesn’t need to end when Pygmalion does.

LIKES A CHARITY WORTH ROCKING FOR: JOSH’S FUND LAUREN EIDEN The Josh Gottheil Memorial Fund is the official charity for The Pygmalion Festival. Josh’s Fund donates money to lymphoma research, providing scholarships for nurses training in oncology. Joshua Gottheil was a true advocate for musicians. Josh began his own music career at a young age, playing drums in rock bands throughout junior high and high school in the 1980s. A C-U local, he began working behind-the-scenes for his start-up production company after high school, where he promoted and booked shows in the community. While simultaneously attending community college and running his production company, Josh was diagnosed with the blood cancer disease lymphoma. After going through chemotherapy, Josh was well enough to move to Chicago and start his second production company, Concert Ones, but unfortunately was unable to work for too long before his lymphoma returned.He underwent a bone marrow transplant, and sadly passed away at age 19 on April 4, 1989. Now, $1 from every Pygmalion ticket purchase will go to Josh's Fund. The money is given directly to nurses training in oncology bone marrow transplants. As a way to remember an important figure in the local music scene, the funds gathered from Pygmalion will help future nurses prepare for cases just like Josh’s.

SETTING THE SCORE

TO

get properly pumped for Pygmalion, the buzz Movie and TV staff imagined what it would be like if some of their favorite movie scenes featured songs from artists performing at the festival. Sylvan Esso | Zac Efron’s version of Training Day Sylvan Esso’s song “H.S.K.T.” would be the perfect soundtrack for any nightclub scene. Specifically, I believe it would work best in a film starring Zac Efron as a rookie officer trying to take down the largest gang in New York. Efron poses as a weapons dealer and is invited to meet the gang’s boss (played by Val Kilmer) in a shady underground nightclub located under the Brooklyn Bridge. As he enters the club, “H.S.K.T.” begins playing and Efron surveys the club, looking for the boss. However, while on his way through the crowded club, a young woman (Natalie Dormer) begins dancing with Efron. Efron, who is conflicted between his mission and the infectious beat of “H.S.K.T.,” begins to dance with her as the scene continues. Efron showcases break dancing moves never before captured on film that impress Dormer’s character, who leans in to kiss Efron. As

4 buzz September 18-24, 2015

they are about to kiss, which is around the 2:16 point in the song, Efron looks away from Natalie Dormer to see Val Kilmer exiting the club, smoking a cigar and shaking his head in dissatisfaction. The beat rages on and Efron knows that he has let his obsession with electronic music get the best of him yet again. Efron must then leave abruptly as Natalie Dormer calls out for him and the beat rages on. -Camron Owens BRAIDS | The Perks of Being a Wallflower One of the artists featured on Pygmalion’s lineup this year is the Canadian art-rock band Braids. Braids’ third album Deep in the Iris, which came out in April 2015, is a record of all the tiny memories we feel in the aftermath of losing someone. One of the songs featured on the album is “Taste.” “Taste” displays how the taste and feeling of someone you love never really leaves you - even when they treated you abusively to begin with. This song would perfectly fit Charlie and Sam’s kissing scene in The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2013) because of the song’s lyrics: “We experience the love that we think we deserve.” Before the

kissing ensues, Sam (played by Emma Watson) asks Charlie (played by Logan Lerman), “Why do I and everyone I love pick people who treat us like we’re nothing?” Charlie then replies with the advice Mr. Anderson (played by Paul Rudd) gave him earlier, “We accept the love we think we deserve.” They then confide in each other and kiss. -Atoosa Sayeh Run the Jewels | The Warriors Killer Mike and El-P are the ultimate rap duo. Their aggressive lyricism and dark production on Run the Jewels’ tracks are a big reason why they have taken the world by storm. As a huge movie fan, I thought it would be awesome to choose a song from the rap duo that would fit perfectly into a movie scene. One of my favorite songs is “Blockbuster Night Part 1” from Run the Jewels 2, because it is one the best beats from the album, and it gets people hyped. Killer Mike and El-P go back and forth with lyrical slaughter as the beat continues to keep your head nodding. For me, the movie scene that this song would go perfectly with is a fight scene, because the lyrics are violent, and Run the Jewels is letting

people know that they can’t be messed with. Specifically, I think this song would go perfectly with the fight scene in the 1979 cult classic The Warriors. The Warriors are trying to make it back to Coney Island, because they have been framed for murder, but there are a bunch of gangs that are standing in their way. “Blockbuster Night Part 1” would fit perfectly into the scene where the Warriors fight the Baseball Furies in Riverside Park in the boroughs of Manhattan. The Baseball Furies seem like tough guys with baseball bats, but the Warriors kick their ass. The song fits because Killer Mike and El-P are telling the industry that they will annihilate any rappers that stand in their way. -Christopher Canty

chats with Patrick Singer, vice president of the Nicodemus Agency, managing editor at Smile Politely and director of development at the Pygmalion Festival. He and Seth Fein, CEO of Nicodemus Agency and executive producer at Pygmalion, are incredibly excited to kick off the 2015 festival with the addition of a new component—the Tech Fest, which includes various workshops, discussions and a Trade Show/Demo Day on Friday at the Krannert Center from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. »buzz: What sort of initiatives helped build the Tech Fest? Why start Tech this year, and what makes this component different from the rest? »Patrick Singer: The discussion around implementing a Tech component into Pygmalion came about roughly around the time we were in Austin at South By Southwest 2014, which has a major interactive component. Of course, we’ve always been aware that there’s a great tech scene in Champaign-Urbana, but that’s the time that we started really kicking around the idea and thinking about it more seriously. It has taken every bit of the 18 months to create and plan this part of the festival as this is a major addition to an already three-part festival with Music, Literature, and Made already going full steam ahead. As such, we didn’t want to force the Tech component into the festival in 2014 when we weren’t ready-- there wasn’t any rush to make it happen right away. »buzz: How did you recruit some of the guests currently listed on the lineup? »PS: Planning and confirming guests for the Tech side took a ton of conversations and sto-

ryboarding--no doubt about it. We were lucky to have some connections to these particular guests before we even had an idea that we were going to implement this component into Pygmalion. Tommy Craggs is an Urbana native; Will Leitch went to the University of Illinois and is from Central Illinois; we were introduced to Jimmy Chamberlin thanks to the Research Park; we’re friendly with the Pitchfork folks—it was pretty organic how the process worked in a lot of ways. We feel that the lineup we’ve curated this year combines a ton of tech, media and design into on— people from outside of the community in tech and media, as well as tons of speakers that already live, work and create in Champaign-Urbana. 2015 is a blueprint year for the Tech component, and with the feedback we’ve been given already, even before the festival, we’re excited to see where it goes, and how we can improve into the future. »buzz: What are the biggest Tech events going to be about? »PS: There are plenty of panels and discussions that are planned, ranging from wearables to big data; virtual reality to brewing science; agricultural tech to creative design; and more. There definitely is a varied approach when it comes to panels. Stephen Wolfram’s keynote presentation will certainly be the biggest single-event we have planned in terms of discussion, though the Demo Day/Trade Show that takes place at Krannert Center on Friday will populate the lobby throughout the day, which is exciting. »buzz: Are there any particular guests/workshops/talks to keep an eye out for, especially

local figures? »PS: Definitely. There’s an entire day planned on Thursday of the festival that takes place at Research Park. There you’ll find some of the best and brightest local tech minds talking about their work and expertise from one of the best research parks in the country—bar none. There’s a bunch of local tech companies that will be on display at Krannert on Friday for the Demo Day, showcasing what they do and how they do it. Throughout the festival’s programming, you’ll find dozens of locals that are integrated into the panels, mixed with some out of town headliners. »buzz: What is Demo Day? »PS: The Demo Day is a trade show of sorts on Friday at Krannert Center, featuring virtual reality demos (Department of Computer Science/ Oculus VR), live coding (Wolfram), immersive technology (Personify), while there will be other companies set up recruiting students (Research Park, Parkland College) as well as generally informing the patrons about what’s happening in Champaign-Urbana’s tech scene. After the Demo Day, there’s a Hackathon that will be taking place all weekend at the ECE Building, which is something we’re excited to implement as well. »buzz: What do you hope to bring to Pygmalion (or the community at large) with a separate part dedicated to technology? »PS: Ultimately, Champaign-Urbana has already established itself as a very viable tech hub in the United States, even around the world. That much is certain—there have been plenty of amazing minds that have developed amazing technol-

ogy here. Celebrating what makes our community a great place is definitely part of the mission, but combining that with the cultural backdrop that The Pygmalion Festival has established over the past decade makes for a bit of a different look when it comes to what it means to be a tech conference. Thankfully, the Tech programming is integrated into the rest, sitting alongside Music, Lit and Made, so we don’t really consider it a separate festival per se. It’s all one festival with many parts, which will grow into the future with plans to create Food, Comedy, Film, and more. There’s a ton of possibility for what can happen in terms of Tech, and in year one, we’re going to figure out a lot of things, and we’re OK with that. It’s a long game, especially with this particular component of the festival. »buzz: How do you expect this portion to grow in following years? What opportunities are you looking to offer or take? »PS: We’re definitely expecting growth, considering this is the first time we’ve done something like this. Growing the Music component took time—same with Literature and Made. Of course, more people and more involvement is a goal, and surely we’ll have other topics and discussions that will be incorporated in future years. With amazing partners and the brilliance that exists here, we’re pretty certain that things will only go up from here. We’re in a pretty great position to be able to combine many different parts of what makes Champaign-Urbana awesome.

Metz, playing Pygmalion in 2013. Photo by Alyssa Abay

WEDNESDAY Feral States: Feral States’ newest album, Dark, is an eclectic offering to the music world, providing a unique blend of jazz, classical and rock to an already atmospheric and melancholy sound. - Lizzie Porter Big Scary: Australian band Big Scary is worth seeing at this year’s Pygmalion Festival solely for singer Tom Iansek’s wicked cool dance moves. Seriously, check them out. - Caroline Kalkowski THURSDAY Kenna Mae: After seeing Kenna Mae play at the Sound of CU kickoff last year, I am so excited that she is one of the artists featured in this year’s Pygmalion lineup. Her charisma on stage and raw vocals are just two of the many features I like most about Kenna Mae. - Caroline Kalkowski Owen: Owen is the solo acoustic project of Chicago musician Mike Kinsella. You may recognize him as vocalist/guitarist from the Midwest emo sensation that is American Football. Kinsella explores similar ground in Owen by incorporating complex guitar parts and interesting musical arrangements. The dynamic production on his last few releases have brought Kinsella’s songs an authentic intensity and an always intimate listening experience. - Jack Kelly Bully: Bully has recently grabbed a spot on everyone’s radar, making a recent appearance on Conan and being featured in Rolling Stone Magazine; I’m not sure that a band starting out could ask for more. Bully produces music that strikes a chord similar to the popular Nirvana style with plenty of grungy vibes, which makes sense for them to record their album Feels Like at Electrical Studios, which contains their hit song “Trying.” - Ryan Graves FRIDAY Tune-Yards: This experimental folk band fuses soulful vocals, unusual percussion and essentially

6 buzz September 18-24, 2015

every other instrument ever. They never fail to thoroughly confuse and delight with their enthusiastically delivered music. - Billie Schaub Zola Jesus: Zola Jesus has a nice belting quality - she usually stays in a tenor octave that’s very pleasing to the ear. Her songs are dark and mellow but meaningful, and her vocal talent is easily matched with artists such as Florence and the Machine and Lana Del Rey. Her 2014 album, Taiga, will be well represented and make for a great show. - Lizzie Porter Savoy: Savoy, a trio originating in Boulder, CO, describes themselves as the “originators of ERM” (Electronic Rock Music). You won’t want to miss their unique performance, consisting of live DJing, guitar and drums (paired with a nationally ranked laser light show) that fuses classic rock and modern dance music. - Anika Nims SATURDAY Boycut: This up-and-coming electro-pop duo is making a lot of noise in the Central Illinois music scene. Emily Otnes’ soft vocals compliment the synth-heavy pop melodies, resulting in a sound that’s difficult not to dance to. - Billie Schaub TRUTH + Klevah: Klevah’s music, lyrics and beats are of a different world in comparison to many other local up-and-coming artists. She is somewhat like a modern-day MC Lyte. Seeing her live at Pygmalion is a must and somewhat inevitable, because if you’re going to see Run the Jewels, she’s opening for them with another amazing local female hip-hop artist T.R.U.T.H, who has also created quite the buzz in the local music scene this past year. –Megha Bamola Run The Jewels: What more can be said about these guys? Since dropping one of the best albums of 2014, Killer Mike and El-P have been appearing at nearly every music festival in the country this summer. Now I am not a rap guy by any

means, but their performance at Pitchfork 2015 was my personal highlight of the festival, and RTJ2 was certainly in my top five albums of last year. There’s just something about these guys’ music that is so infectious: maybe it’s the sick beats or how fast paced it is, but Run the Jewels is one of the few hip-hop artists I can get into. So if you’re a fan of hip-hop, go see Run the Jewels, because they’re a fantastic duo; if you’re not a fan like me, you absolutely still have to go, cause you’ll still have a blast. This is the Pygmalion performance you cannot miss. - Michael Semaca Purity Ring: There’s that certain type of music you listen to when you want to dance and music you listen to when you simply want to chill. Purity Ring is the medium that exists between this spectrum. Honestly, seeing them perform will most likely compare to a lucid dream. – Megha Bamola Church Booty: Church Booty is the kind of funk you’d get from gospel music if the preacher that Sunday had led a sermon on the vitality of underground dance parties. - Jessica Peterson SUNDAY Motes: When listening to a song by Motes, expect to hear a consistent and provoking guitar melody along with haunting and mystifying lyrics. Their sound is relaxing and reflective. “Great Lakes” from their latest album exemplifies that their music is all about finding a comfortable chair, turning the jams up and then letting your eyes glaze over. - Sami Toal Cathedrals: As you bounce your head back and forth to this electronic duo, you’ll admire the ingenious combo of both the eerie and the upbeat. - Jessica Peterson Caspian: If you’ve ever wished your life had a movie soundtrack, listening to Caspian is probably the closest thing you’ll find to that being possible. The post-rock group from Beverly, MA

creates a rollercoaster listening experience that shifts anywhere from delicate guitar melodies to thundering full-band jams. It’s accurate to say many of their songs go from 0 to 100, but without any quickness. The band takes their time developing a smooth progression within each song; it’s the steady build towards an enormous climax that brings wonder to Caspian’s music. - Jack Kelly Sylvan Esso: After performances at huge festivals like Coachella, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza this summer, it will be a treat seeing Sylvan Esso perform at a more intimate venue. Sylvan Esso is an indie-pop duo, featuring Amelia Meath on vocals and Nick Sanborn on instrumentals/ production. The folkish quality of Meath’s voice combined with synth sounds and dance beats creates a raw electronic sound unlike anything else you’ll hear at this year’s festival. - Anika Nims Ride: Ride’s overall sound doesn’t differ too far from your typical shoegaze or alternative rock mold. Their lyrics are often barely understood as they accompany the loud, intensive use of the drums, guitar and bass. However, while often inaudible, the mix of the two is melodic and emotional. - Sami Toal Grandkids: Grandkids, led by the lead singer Vivian McConnell, sister and bandmate of lead singer Stan McConnell, are popular with the Champaign-Urbana scene as both McConnells are UIUC alumni. Just this summer, I saw Grandkids perform live at Mike N Molly’s for Bonestock with many other great bands. I got the privilege to meet Vivian after her performance and could tell how her personality influences the sounds in her music. I would recommend listening to their album Timeshare with an emphasis on the song “Timeshare.” If you like the sound they produce, I would also advise giving her brother’s band Santah a listen; they’re two of my favorite locallyrooted bands. - Ryan Graves

the season of festivals is coming to a close, say goodbye to summer by attending Made Fest. The unique handmade and vintage goods marketplace festival is held in conjunction with the local Pygmalion Music Festival, held right here throughout Champaign-Urbana. Made Fest was founded in 2012 and came to existence in the fall of 2013. This is the third year that Made Fest will appear onsite and is open for all ages to attend at no charge. Made Fest takes place between the Gold Rush Pawn Shop and The High Dive Outdoor Annex, at Market and Main Street in downtown Champaign on Sept. 26-27 from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. The outdoor marketplace offers a variety of booths featuring various original crafts and arts for both Pygmalion attendees and community members. The event features as well as supports local artists and crafters as well as artists around the nation. Justine Bursoni, Made Fest creator and wife of Pygmalion creator Seth Fein, expects around 48 vendors at the fest this year, which will be doubling the amount of vendors and open hours from its last two years debut. According to Bursoni, the first year Made Fest opened, there were only around 25 vendors. Now, she expects higher numbers due to the positive feedback she has received from previous vendors and attendees. “The Made Fest was created because we selfishly wanted to showcase local and traveling makers that we love and respect. There are very few opportunities like this for our vendors in the community, and we thought it would be a fantastic way to build on what the Pygmalion Festival has to offer. An alternative marketplace has always been of interest to me, not only as a resident of Champaign, but also as an artist,� Bursoni said. The items that vendors showcase include vintage clothing, ceramics, drawings, woodwork and other unique craft goods. Made Fest will also include apothecary goods, such as candles, beard care and soaps jewelry crafted out of various materials such as leather, metal and taxidermy; screen printed items; furniture pieces; and much more. “I’m interested in attending Made Fest, because it sounds like a good time to go out and see the various vendors that will be attending. It’s great that such an awesome event will be taking place close to campus,� University junior, Ralph Maguigad, said. There is a wide diversity of vendors, who sell their products at Made Fest from Ohio, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Illinois (both hyper local and regional). Made Fest’s purpose is to provide diversity to its customers. Some of the vendors who will be at Made Fest are listed on

the Pygmalion website with a short snippet about their backgrounds. This year’s vendors include Dandelion, 419 Trading CO, Weiskamp, Norden, Exile on Main Street, Arthur’s Plaid Pants, Artery Ink, Blackdogcircus, Bergfield Clay Works, Bearmojo, Lalo and many more. In order for Bursoni to find the vendors to participate in the festival, she researches artists through their websites and online via storefronts, such as Etsy. Although, Bursoni mentioned that most artists have found Made Fest on their own accord. Usually, the only obstacles are if there is another show in the vicinity that prevents artists from attending. All vendors enjoy the event, mentioned Bursoni. In previous years, Pandemonium Doughnuts and other food trucks would be available for attendees. This year, The Pop Stop and Rok’s will be directly outside the parking lot of Made Fest to provide attendees some food to snack on as they shop around. The Pop Stop has hand-made popsicles that combine fruits, dairy and spices. Also available will be Korean barbeque tacos from Rok’s. The artists and vendors are the ones who pay to have booths at the show and support Made Fest financially. Aside from Bursoni’s own financial resources to make Made Fest possible on the logistics front, there are a variety of sponsors every year that keep the fest afloat. There is a listing of all the sponsors online. “Shout out to Weiskamp, NORDEN and Smile Politely for their 2015 sponsorship, and for making Made Fest possible,� Bursoni said. Participants who attend Pygmalion and have wristbands to the outdoor shows can get in to see music directly next door to Made Fest or can check out some of the readings being offered at the free Lit Fest. Lit Fest welcomes all bookworms to attend their 3rd annual live readings. This event is also free of charge for the public. Enjoy one of the final summer festivities and go out to Champaign or Urbana for live entertainment/ shopping. Make sure to like Made Fest on Facebook and follow them on Twitter for upcoming information on giveaways and what to expect at Made Fest.
