The Cannibalist Manifesto #004 (21 April 2011)
Posted under: A special episode for this week’s installment of The Cannibalist Manifesto on Space Invader Radio.
As spring finally arrived in New York City, we ventured outside to create this week’s episode. More specifically, we made our way to The Trinity Church Cemetery & Mausoleum to assemble the mix live in various parts of the cemetery.
The Trinity Church Cemetery & Mausoleum–located in North Harlem–is one of the oldest in New York City as well as the only active cemetery in Manhattan (meaning people are still being interred there); it provided excellent inspiration. So, along with new tunes and/or new remixes from MF Doom, James Pants, Salem, Memory House, Mono/poly and more, we also visit some notable grave sites over the course of the show, including the grave of the son of Charles Dickens and a peak inside one of the cemetery’s older tombs (which just happened to be open when we were there).
Photos of the graves visited (in order of appearance):
- Alfred Tennyson Dickens
- Palmer Family Grave Plot
- Sechrist Family Tomb
- Sarah Barnes
- The NY Juvenile Asylum
