     Another birthday was celebrated with another radtastic show this weekend at Alex’s Bar in Long Beach, CA. The Mathematicians brought their hard-hip-rock-hop to SoCal in full effect and totally rocked my n’abes. Unassuming at first, this nerdy trio blows the roof off with their incredible energy, strong beats and science-infused tunes. An added bonus this time was their elaborate visual effects, which was absent from my last exposure to them at BAM<\/a>. The video effects master off stage was almost like a fourth band member, complete with filming equipment and projection system. He was mixing the live feed with pre-produced footage of somewhat random and somewhat themed material (e.g. binary code flying around while they banged out Binary Girl).
\n     The Mathematicians describe themselves as harking from “the tri-county region of upstate New York,” as if that clears everything up for the audience’s geographic curiosity. “Oh yeah, I know where that is.”
\n     Pete Pythagoras (bass), Dewi Decimal (keyboards) and Albert Gorithm (drums) shared vocal duty, spanning the use of a vocoder all the way into electric hip-hop with trigonometric lyrics. At some point each one of them made it off the stage and into the crowd with tightly-gripped microphone-phury, screamin’ and bumpin’ into people (myself included), gettin’ all up in your grill while not missing a beat. Unfortunately they only played about a 40 minute (max) set, possibly due to an apparent delay in the arrival of their equipment.
\n     Pick up a copy of “Level One” or the recently released “Level Two” at their myspace page<\/a>.<\/p>\n
