    A couple years back the mediocre likes of Flobots scored a minor hit boasting about their no-handlebar bicycle-riding skills. Big freaking deal. Hurtbird can top the 'Bots in both hiphop flow and bicycle swagger ('I Like My Bike' could serve as a local two-wheel anthem and should be the soundtrack to any late-night bike lane adventure). Their brand-new Nature vs. City stomps through hiphop's sacred grounds with a destructive urge to destroy and creatively reassemble the storied franchise. Much like the Anticon folks-or Seattle's Astronautalis-Hurtbird pile their flowing vocals atop a vast selection of warm, live-band instrumentation. It's unlike anything you have ever heard before, and that's a damn good thing. EAC [WEIRDO MUSIC] Hurtbird's early demos and live showings always showed potential: They bucked Portland's twee popular music trend for an hip-hop/indie funk fusion that meshed tribal percussion, spoken-word poetry and dramatic synths. But it's hard to deliver on a high-concept sound without the production values to back it up. That's where Nature Vs. City is such a success. The finds Hurtbird building a sonic nest somewhere between Air's The Virgin Suicides, Cake's Fashion Nugget, Grizzly Bear's Yellow House and the Talking Heads' Remain in Light. It's an unconventional mix, but one works quite well for Hurtbird, which ties everything together for a really enjoyable, atmospheric, post-genre disc. I think Hurtbird just moved itself up a notch in Best New Band voting. CASEY JARMAN.

    KONETIUK - NAMMY Nominated poet/songwriter/producer Marco Capelli Frucht has played 40 states and two Provinces including AZ, Colo., NM, Ont., the Carolinas, Dakotas & of course closer to home in CT/NY/RI. This hunter/gatherer likes classical & folk mostly, but also digs on punk, pop & parody music. Used to play bass in a 3-piece Christian Metal band called Peace On Earth (POE) so the occasional weird influence you'll hear is probably just loose eardrums. 'If you think the music you hear here is eclectic, you should hear what I do when I'm playing out in the streets!' he once told someone in a mezzanine where he was playing classical guitar before nine showings of Phantom Of The Opera's Bus & Truck group. What he didn't know at the time was he was telling this to Sarah Brightman's Broadway understudy. She went on to lead both Broadway and touring productions. Marco currently plays full time in the summer at an amusement park, and hibernates every fall, winter and spring. The song 'Frybread' (Track 2, 2:39) has been nominated for a NAMMY (Native American Music Award) and is prenominated for an ISMA (Indian Summer Music Award). Marco and his career are nominated for a Whalie Award (New London, Konetiuk's local mini grammys) in the Best Solo Singer/Songwriter category. Shouts and Gr33tz to Snark Tuners, Zinky amps and the only new guitar purchases anymore are Navatone and Godin. Also, I wish to shout out the members of Sledge Grits Band, Keiko, Ella, Mimi and Bo-Pah!
