A little Announcement
There's been no posts in ages and I apologize. I'm being evicted and things are hectic. Trying to find a room is making me feel fucking shit. No energy or brain ability to write stuff here for now.
Assuming I find myself settled, normal service will resume.

THE BEST OF MUSIC I FOUND WHEN I CLEANED MY ROOM YESTERDAY pt.2
Jacob Golden is bloody brilliant. I thought I'd lost his Rough Trade released e.p forever and yesterday it turned up under my bed. His fragile broken voice sounds like a thousand shattered dreams. Share the excitement and listen...
Polyamory
Carry Yourself
As she turns
Point yourself at his myspace for more recent beauty...

Someone is freaked. It might be me, or maybe it's that shadow that just jumped up, stared at the cat, then ran out the room. These Are Powers have got me shook up and scared. Anna Barie (ex Knife Skills), Ted McGraith and Pat Noecker (ex Liars) craft music for funerals of long dead and very pissed off people. As your attorney I advise you buy their e.p.
While you're waiting on the postman, get a taste with these songs..

When Steve Mason (Beta Band) announced his retirement from music last year, alot of people were hoping that he'd do a Jay-Z and be back soon.. and yep, it's happened, he's dropped King Biscuit Time and returned as Black Affair. His voice is distinctive as ever and the beats and bleeps are set to storm clubs full of people with wonky haircuts. The first single 'Japanese Happening' is currently only available to stream on his myspace or to buy through u.s.a itunes.. in the meantime enjoy these beauties..

always rock on the western side (dave apple remix)
They've also got a few wonky mixes up.

The internet doesn't just come in English! Oh no, there's a world wide web of language out there that has me scratching my head and hovering my mouse above hyperlinks. So even with my limited grasp of language I was happy to stumble across kwadratuur, a Belguim site that contains all manner of goodness. On there a found a *brand new* múm track, the first I've heard with their new line-up (check the story here)
It's sparse, piano led with male vocals.. in short, different from what you'd expect.. Hear for yourself..

Fog and Why? released their Hymie's Basement lp on Lex to little fanfare. It's an ace album and they both have a following, but there was no two man in a van world tour to promote it. That's a shame as I always sure the songs would sound great live .. and now I'm very happy to have this to prove it.. unearthed from the archives, these songs are from an ultra limited Live e.p, recorded when and where? I don't know, but I do know these performances are every bit as good as you could hope for...
America Won/America Too
The Act
All Them Boys
Ghost Dream/The Pump
Ben & Joey
Lightning Bolts And Man Hands/You Die
21st Century Pop Song
Also as another little treat....
