She’s from the Contra Costa County suburb of Brentwood, and her low-key, relatable lo-fi pop has earned her a following far beyond the East Bay.

If you had any doubt of the vast Indian population in the South Bay, consider that on opening day, the museum counted 500 visitors.

Choreographer Danielle Rowe adapted the action-packed, darkly funny film into a thrilling dance performance with original music by the North Bay indie pop band Yassou and composer Kristina Dutton. \u003ca href=\"https://www.furyshow.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Blackalicious:\u003c/strong> In 1999, if you were anywhere in the Bay Area, you heard Blackalicious’ \u003cem>Nia\u003c/em> playing out of cars, at bars or restaurants, and especially around a scene that coalesced at the Justice League, a smoky club on Divisadero. On \u003cem>Nia\u003c/em>, Chief Xcel’s production is a combination of dusty and futuristic, and MC Gift of Gab is in top form. Blackalicious is excellent live, and they celebrate the album’s 20th anniversary in a show on Sept. 19 at Slim’s in San Francisco. \u003ca href=\"https://www.slimspresents.com/e/blackalicious-61971332925/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Choreographer Danielle Rowe adapted the action-packed, darkly funny film into a thrilling dance performance with original music by the North Bay indie pop band Yassou and composer Kristina Dutton. \u003ca href=\"https://www.furyshow.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u003cstrong>Blackalicious:\u003c/strong> In 1999, if you were anywhere in the Bay Area, you heard Blackalicious’ \u003cem>Nia\u003c/em> playing out of cars, at bars or restaurants, and especially around a scene that coalesced at the Justice League, a smoky club on Divisadero. On \u003cem>Nia\u003c/em>, Chief Xcel’s production is a combination of dusty and futuristic, and MC Gift of Gab is in top form. Blackalicious is excellent live, and they celebrate the album’s 20th anniversary in a show on Sept. 19 at Slim’s in San Francisco. \u003ca href=\"https://www.slimspresents.com/e/blackalicious-61971332925/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Details here\u003c/a>. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

The producer PBDY from Brainfeeder was one of Olsen’s first followers on SoundCloud, and he introduced her music to label boss Flying Lotus, an experimental producer and one of Olsen’s idols. “And somehow FlyLo decided he wanted me on his label,” she says, her pitch rising with excitement. “I’m still freaking out about it, to be honest.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13864204\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13864204\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2-800x450.jpg\" alt=\"Salami Rose Joe Louis (Lindsay Olsen) with paintings by Muzae Sesay.\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2-800x450.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2-160x90.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2-768x432.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2-1020x574.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/08/IMG_3380-2.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Salami Rose Joe Louis (Lindsay Olsen) with paintings by Muzae Sesay. \u003ccite>(Nastia Voynovskaya)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Days ahead of her national tour with Flying Lotus, which kicked off this week, Olsen says she’s still starstruck, remembering a show in Los Angeles a year and a half ago where she met Flying Lotus for the first time. Just before going on stage, Olsen found out that he and the bassist Thundercat, two of Brainfeeder’s most celebrated acts, were in the audience. Overcome with nervousness, she didn’t know what to do, so she pulled out a dinosaur finger puppet on stage. “Sometimes when I’m scared, I go into bizarre mode,” she says, laughing. “That was how I coped with meeting my heroes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now that she’s signed to one of the country’s most popular avant-garde labels, Olsen is still in disbelief; she humbly calls it blind luck. Four years ago, she thought she’d quit her music career for good when took a job as a researcher in a chemical oceanography lab. But music kept calling: “I started coming late to the lab because I was writing music, and I kept missing the first hour of my job,” she says. “Slowly, I became a very bad lab employee.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, her solo work which she once considered a hobby has a giant audience, and has propelled her on a new path.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I always thought it was too weird,” she says, exhaling with relief. “I never thought I would show it to anybody besides friends.”\u003c/p>\n\n",

But his day-to-day life in the Bay Area isn’t nearly as glamorous. Most of the time, in fact, he can be found collaborating with local artists at his warehouse on a graffiti-covered street in North Oakland—the home base of his design studio and record label, Company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But glamor isn’t what the artist—real name Chaz Bear—looks for in a city. “If you look at Oakland and where it’s going, I feel like it’s a city for subcultural artists of color.

Those include diverse, interdisciplinary collectives \u003ca href=\"https://wineandbowties.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wine & Bowties\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://shadezine.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shade Zine\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://clubchai.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Club Chai\u003c/a>, all of whom have significantly shaped Oakland’s visual art and nightlife scenes in the past several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first show I played here was at Bottom of the Hill, and the first thing I noticed was how diverse the crowd was. The first two rows were Filipino teens,” says Bear, who is Filipino and African American, with a slight build, bleached hair and a soft-spoken demeanor. “This was my first show out of South Carolina, and I was blown away. It was cool to see a city that had a diverse subculture.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://youtu.be/Jm6hDWBZXc4\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bear arrived in the Bay Area in 2012, when he followed his then-girlfriend from South Carolina to her grad program at UC Berkeley. During that period, he rose in the ranks of the music blogosphere and became known as a key architect of chillwave, a fuzzed-out indie rock and electronic subgenre that continues to influence to today’s pop music landscape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After moving to the Bay, Bear quickly gelled with the local scene—and his sound evolved, too. In part through various DJ gigs—including several at Wine & Bowties’ homegrown mini-festival, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/11628892/photos-feels-v-oaklands-hottest-underground-warehouse-party\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Feels\u003c/a>—he honed the sleek, autotuned take on funk and disco that defines \u003cem>Outer Peace\u003c/em>. While \u003cem>Boo Boo\u003c/em> lamented his separation from his high-school sweetheart, \u003cem>Outer Peace\u003c/em> finds Bear in a productive and energized state. The album celebrates the creative hustle of self-employed artists behind their laptops; the debut single, appropriately, is called “Freelance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With creative partner Brendan Nakahara, Bear built Company’s headquarters on that “Freelance” ethos of a constant grind. When we talk, he likens it to a millennial version of Andy Warhol’s famed Factory, where white indie-rock dudes rub shoulders with black feminist photographers and Asian-American designers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really sick to see these crews getting their foot in the door, and I feel like I’m in a position where I have to come in with the assist,” he reflects. “It’s almost required as a successful person—you have to give back. If you’re not giving opportunities, it’s kind of for the wrong reasons.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As much as Bear loves Oakland, the sold-out kickoff show for his \u003cem>Outer Peace\u003c/em> tour at the New Parish proved that the town loves him right back. The eager audience applauded his slightly awkward dance moves, clapping along on the two and the four of almost every track.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13848959\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13848959\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Toro y Moi performs live at The New Parish in Oakland on Jan. 14. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Toro y Moi performs live at The New Parish in Oakland on Jan. 14. \u003ccite>(Nastia Voynovskaya)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At Company, Bear produces for several Oakland indie acts, including \u003ca href=\"https://tanukichan.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tanukichan\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://astronautsetc.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Astronauts, etc.\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://madelinekenney.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Madeline Kenney\u003c/a>.

But his day-to-day life in the Bay Area isn’t nearly as glamorous. Most of the time, in fact, he can be found collaborating with local artists at his warehouse on a graffiti-covered street in North Oakland—the home base of his design studio and record label, Company.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But glamor isn’t what the artist—real name Chaz Bear—looks for in a city. “If you look at Oakland and where it’s going, I feel like it’s a city for subcultural artists of color. It’s open-minded,” he tells me on a rainy afternoon at KQED’s San Francisco office, where he arrives wearing a neon-green, reflective worker’s jacket screenprinted with the Company Records logo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Company’s headquarters isn’t far from the final freeway exit Bear takes in his 2017 one-take visual album, \u003ca href=\"https://youtu.be/9rPOuZ4vY50\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cem>Boo Boo\u003c/em>\u003c/a>, which follows his car from San Francisco and over the Bay Bridge into Oakland.

Those include diverse, interdisciplinary collectives \u003ca href=\"https://wineandbowties.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wine & Bowties\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"http://shadezine.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shade Zine\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://clubchai.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Club Chai\u003c/a>, all of whom have significantly shaped Oakland’s visual art and nightlife scenes in the past several years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The first show I played here was at Bottom of the Hill, and the first thing I noticed was how diverse the crowd was. The first two rows were Filipino teens,” says Bear, who is Filipino and African American, with a slight build, bleached hair and a soft-spoken demeanor. “This was my first show out of South Carolina, and I was blown away. It was cool to see a city that had a diverse subculture.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

During that period, he rose in the ranks of the music blogosphere and became known as a key architect of chillwave, a fuzzed-out indie rock and electronic subgenre that continues to influence to today’s pop music landscape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After moving to the Bay, Bear quickly gelled with the local scene—and his sound evolved, too. In part through various DJ gigs—including several at Wine & Bowties’ homegrown mini-festival, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/11628892/photos-feels-v-oaklands-hottest-underground-warehouse-party\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Feels\u003c/a>—he honed the sleek, autotuned take on funk and disco that defines \u003cem>Outer Peace\u003c/em>. While \u003cem>Boo Boo\u003c/em> lamented his separation from his high-school sweetheart, \u003cem>Outer Peace\u003c/em> finds Bear in a productive and energized state. The album celebrates the creative hustle of self-employed artists behind their laptops; the debut single, appropriately, is called “Freelance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>With creative partner Brendan Nakahara, Bear built Company’s headquarters on that “Freelance” ethos of a constant grind. When we talk, he likens it to a millennial version of Andy Warhol’s famed Factory, where white indie-rock dudes rub shoulders with black feminist photographers and Asian-American designers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s really sick to see these crews getting their foot in the door, and I feel like I’m in a position where I have to come in with the assist,” he reflects. “It’s almost required as a successful person—you have to give back. If you’re not giving opportunities, it’s kind of for the wrong reasons.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As much as Bear loves Oakland, the sold-out kickoff show for his \u003cem>Outer Peace\u003c/em> tour at the New Parish proved that the town loves him right back. The eager audience applauded his slightly awkward dance moves, clapping along on the two and the four of almost every track.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13848959\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13848959\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Toro y Moi performs live at The New Parish in Oakland on Jan. 14. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-1200x800.jpg 1200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live.jpg 1920w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-960x640.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2019/01/toro-y-moi-live-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Toro y Moi performs live at The New Parish in Oakland on Jan. 14. \u003ccite>(Nastia Voynovskaya)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>At Company, Bear produces for several Oakland indie acts, including \u003ca href=\"https://tanukichan.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Tanukichan\u003c/a>, \u003ca href=\"https://astronautsetc.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Astronauts, etc.\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://madelinekenney.bandcamp.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Madeline Kenney\u003c/a>.

Artistes” and swayed to the reggae rhythm of “Run the Road” wearing a red cape covered in money, plastic water bottles and green moss. With its eccentric and eco-conscious attire (“money and plastic are ruining the environment” was the message I got) and textured, pastel-hued set design, Santigold’s performance looked and felt like something out of a ’90s Nickelodeon show—and it was glorious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her set wasn’t exactly PG, though—during her dancehall bop “Coo Coo Coo,” a dis to men who catcall women, a cartoon pig with six-pack abs and exposed genitals appeared on screen. The audience was clearly there for it: dozens of girls in Vans and tube tops stampeded to the front of the stage to join the singer for her electro-punk anthem “Creator,” about making one’s own rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842781\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842781\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A$AP Rocky performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A$AP Rocky performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Santigold’s out-there set was a climactic point of this year’s TIMF, which returned this year after a hiatus in 2017.

With the new location, Treasure Island could have also benefitted from a new approach to genres. The festival’s dichotomous schedule, with electronic music on the first day and rock on the second, is an institution that dates back to the festival’s beginnings in the late 2000s, when the prevalent hipster aesthetics were bloghouse electro and indie rock. But at this point, the separation between genres feels arcane and unnecessary, especially as Saturday grows more varied with additional hip-hop, pop and electronic subgenres each year and Sunday stays essentially the same.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saturday, the more exciting day of the fest, was all about impressive vocalists. Moses Sumney, a rising singer-producer with the self-reflectiveness of Frank Ocean and baroque instrumental arrangements of Sigur Rós, wowed the audience with his high-flying falsetto and live vocal manipulations. Throughout his set, he harmonized with his loop pedal and improvised off his violinist’s playing, which swelled from plucked, staccato beats to a chill-inducing solo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842748\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842748\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Hiatus Kaiyote perform at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hiatus Kaiyote perform at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Later, Naomi “Nai Palm” Saalfield from neo-soul group Hiatus Kaiyote stunned festival-goers with her diva-worthy vocal chops. Much like Amy Winehouse, the Australian Saalfield is clearly inspired by African-American jazz, soul and gospel traditions; Hiatus Kaiyote’s raucous instrumentation ignited the band’s R&B and soul compositions and transformed them into chaotic jam sessions. Rapper Aminé, who also played an excellent set Saturday evening, came out from backstage and watched Hiatus Kaiyote from the photo pit, mouth agape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rest of Saturday’s lineup was stacked: A$AP Rocky’s headlining set sparked several mosh pits; Pusha T’s performance had legions of hip-hop heads rapping along; Silk City (Diplo and Mark Ronson’s DJ duo) spun ’90s house; Laff Trax (Toro y Moi and Nosaj Thing) got a dance party going with self-produced disco and funk. In contrast, Sunday was dedicated to mostly shoegazey indie rock and a bit of post-punk; it felt more mellow and much less eventful. A large contingent of fans, in fact, showed up at the very end for Tame Impala’s excellent headlining set, bypassing the earlier bands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842777\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842777\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Pusha T performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pusha T performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This year, a majority of the musicians on stage Sunday were white guys; Cigarettes After Sex and Lord Huron’s reverb-laden guitars began to blend together in the hours between Courtney Barnett’s high-energy rock’n’roll and Tame Impala’s ornate psychedelia. The band Jungle got the people moving, but their take on disco sounded a bit too much like Bee Gees karaoke.

Mixing up U.K. band Shame’s hyperactive, angry post-punk, for instance, and Aminé’s mosh-worthy rap could’ve created exciting cross-pollination. Still, Treasure Island offers a chance to see internationally touring acts without the same level of sensory overload and overcrowding as bigger fests, and thus is a welcome part of the Bay Area’s music festival ecosystem.

The audience was clearly there for it: dozens of girls in Vans and tube tops stampeded to the front of the stage to join the singer for her electro-punk anthem “Creator,” about making one’s own rules.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842781\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842781\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"A$AP Rocky performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3883-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">A$AP Rocky performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Santigold’s out-there set was a climactic point of this year’s TIMF, which returned this year after a hiatus in 2017. Though it retains the Treasure Island name, the festival now takes place in Oakland’s Middle Harbor Shoreline Park due to \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13832219/treasure-island-music-festival-to-return-relocate-to-oakland-shore-in-2018\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ongoing construction\u003c/a> on the actual Treasure Island.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The misnomer might be a little awkward, but the abundance of eclectic talent, warm weather and sweeping views of the San Francisco skyline made the festival’s growing pains easy to forget.

With the new location, Treasure Island could have also benefitted from a new approach to genres. The festival’s dichotomous schedule, with electronic music on the first day and rock on the second, is an institution that dates back to the festival’s beginnings in the late 2000s, when the prevalent hipster aesthetics were bloghouse electro and indie rock. But at this point, the separation between genres feels arcane and unnecessary, especially as Saturday grows more varied with additional hip-hop, pop and electronic subgenres each year and Sunday stays essentially the same.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Moses Sumney, a rising singer-producer with the self-reflectiveness of Frank Ocean and baroque instrumental arrangements of Sigur Rós, wowed the audience with his high-flying falsetto and live vocal manipulations. Throughout his set, he harmonized with his loop pedal and improvised off his violinist’s playing, which swelled from plucked, staccato beats to a chill-inducing solo.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842748\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842748\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Hiatus Kaiyote perform at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3391-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hiatus Kaiyote perform at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Later, Naomi “Nai Palm” Saalfield from neo-soul group Hiatus Kaiyote stunned festival-goers with her diva-worthy vocal chops. Much like Amy Winehouse, the Australian Saalfield is clearly inspired by African-American jazz, soul and gospel traditions; Hiatus Kaiyote’s raucous instrumentation ignited the band’s R&B and soul compositions and transformed them into chaotic jam sessions. Rapper Aminé, who also played an excellent set Saturday evening, came out from backstage and watched Hiatus Kaiyote from the photo pit, mouth agape.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The rest of Saturday’s lineup was stacked: A$AP Rocky’s headlining set sparked several mosh pits; Pusha T’s performance had legions of hip-hop heads rapping along; Silk City (Diplo and Mark Ronson’s DJ duo) spun ’90s house; Laff Trax (Toro y Moi and Nosaj Thing) got a dance party going with self-produced disco and funk. In contrast, Sunday was dedicated to mostly shoegazey indie rock and a bit of post-punk; it felt more mellow and much less eventful. A large contingent of fans, in fact, showed up at the very end for Tame Impala’s excellent headlining set, bypassing the earlier bands.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_13842777\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-13842777\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/arts/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Pusha T performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-768x512.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-240x160.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-375x250.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2018/10/MG_3789-520x346.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Pusha T performs at Treasure Island Music Festival on Oct. 13, 2018. \u003ccite>(Estefany Gonzalez)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>This year, a majority of the musicians on stage Sunday were white guys; Cigarettes After Sex and Lord Huron’s reverb-laden guitars began to blend together in the hours between Courtney Barnett’s high-energy rock’n’roll and Tame Impala’s ornate psychedelia. The band Jungle got the people moving, but their take on disco sounded a bit too much like Bee Gees karaoke.
