ASUCD News Entertainment Council ASUCD EC presents Slow Magic Saturday, April 4, 2015 @ 7:00 PM MU Quad // FREE for all UC Davis Students! ADD us on social media! Instagram | Twitter | Website: ec.ucdavis.edu | Event page SLOW MAGIC: A DIY project with worldwide scope, Slow Magic is universal and inclusive. It's cosmic electronic music culled from the ether, yet crafted with human hands. It's joyous, escapist, multi-disciplinary art that mixes transcendent performance with the nostalgic intimacy of two teenagers staying up too late on the phone. After the release of 2012's beloved and critically-acclaimed Triangle, Slow Magic became an international movement after touring with artists like Gold Panda and XXYYXX. Crowds found a masked man in their midst, bathed in fantastic light, with electronic triggers and a drum. The future-primitive combination infused the project's electronic compositions with new life. How To Run Away, Slow Magic's debut with Downtown Records, reflects this growth, oozing both otherworldly beauty and a mastery of production. Lead single "Girls" is deconstructionist house with an organic pulse and collaged, handcrafted samples. "Hold Still" sculpts elastic organs and jazz piano into an emotionallypummeling finale, while the melancholy "Let U Go" merges watery dub with spectral piano and "Closer" plays like a '90s R&B fever dream. Slow Magic is music by your imaginary friend. Registered UC Davis Student Groups Imani Clinic BOLT Join Imani Clinic on Sunday, April 12th for our 2nd Annual Imani BOLT 5K Fun Run for Health!
