   About The Incomprehensible Danny Midnight Orchestra

Our Man Midnight is the fastest DJ alive. He spins his records on two hand-powered HMV gramophones at the breakneck speed of 78 rounds per minute - they don't come any faster than that. Every once in a while he exchanges his antiques for high fidelity stereo equipment to entertain his audience with action packed sets of soundtracks from the groovy movies of the 60's and 70's. And in the cover of night he hacks up and reassembles recorded history into soundtracks for your enjoyment - with or without the complement of an actual film. The autobiographic short film "The Rise and Fall of Danny Midnight," was - in accordance with the life it portrayed - a flop. Another film incomprehensibly scored - "The Girl Who Wished to Be in the Pictures" - went to the Minimalen Short Film Festival in 2007. As of 2010, the Orchestra will be performing live in selected venues.

Hungry for more? Observe the two tributaries of the Midnight Stream:

The Shellac Jockey: Midnight at 78 RPM
The Beat Comedian: Midnight Metamorphoses

We quote from the Orchestra's own log entry at the perilous launch into unexplored My Space territory on the Eve of Christmas in the Year of Our Lord 2006:

"It is the night before Christmas and Danny Midnight launches into space. Not into old-fashioned Outer Space or worn-out Inner Space, but into a space of our age: the clammy space of the fancy-tickling monster known as "My." But how, you may ask, will a grumpy bastard such as Midnight survive in a place subsisting on the ooze of tickled glands? Oh, we may answer, he will survive by shameless trickery, by base tomfoolery and by outright evil - all feats performed behind the screen of his smoking cigar. Ha-hah! Heads off - Midnight is a-coming in!"

These boys are criminals on a looting spree in the history of music. They grab whatever sticks to their suits, stuff it full of Hell, Damnation and the Fourth of July and roll the resulting cataclysms at their audience with murderous intent.

Do not miss this chance to experience the likes of Dolly Parton, The Osmonds, Donna Summer and Roger Whittaker performed as hot headed, cold sweating rock'n'roll!

Por favor no iguales!

"Ticklin' The Strings" by Sweet Hollywaiians
Amazing Japanese hot string band playing 1920's, 30's, 40's style hawaiian, swing, calypso, blues, italian music and originals,featuring vintage instruments.3 songs with Robert Armstrong and Tony Marcus(from Robert Crumb and His Cheap Suit Serenaders)

Promotional Video(My Girl From The South Sea Isles)

"The Sweet Hollywaiians have probably the best feel for this 20's music of any string band working today. They manage the rare feat of sounding relaxed even when their playing is hot, are top notch musicians with tasteful arrangements and a full, rich, warm sound.Plus, they have a nice gamut of tunes, from King Nawahi to Giovanni Vicari to Bobby Leecan. See them live, if you can, for an unforgettable experience. If you can't, buy their Cds!" ~ Terry Zwigoff

Dear Colleagues!

Thank you for your friendship!

I'm happy and honored to
inform you
that our new album "MASISAMBA"
is almost ready to be released via internet! (there is some artwork left to do).
Thank you very much for your interest in what we do.
Our MySpace player plays more than 150 times over night ! ! ! ! ! !
It inspires my colleagues ! ! ! ! !
There is not much real Big Band music in today's world.
To be frank, it takes a lot of effort to keep musicians together.
So your interest helps me to cope with this!

cordially,
Armen Martirosian, artistic director, Armenian Jazz Band

P.S.I created a new group JAZZ ORCHESTRAS !!!!!!!!!
