collection of sounds, based around some infectiously happy indie folk sounds

happy and bonkers at the same time, august 2007-Cd-Switchico-€18.99

with a somewhat dark heart to it, try to imagine the meeting of lambchop,
the handsome family and early calexico, the album has a real wide open
desert feel to it as they mix up the rustic sounds of calexico with the more
country tinged sounds of the likes of op8, the dual vocals of tracee and dan
give the album a somewhat old school nashville feel at times too, limited

Bretschneider, frank-Rhythm-This is bretschneiders first album since his
collaboration with taylor deupree on the balance album in 2002, the album
features some of the most intricate minimal techno blended with some glitchy
and very dubby laid back funk meets dubstep, with an album based around
processed glitchy sound effects and pulsing tones you can see why it took so
long to knit all of this together into such a cohesive mass, the album calls
to mind the harsh beats of early autechre meets the dubby pulsating sounds
of pole, the best way to get the full effects of this highly intricate
collection is to play it either as loud as is possible or listen through
headphones, one of the finest things from raster noton in quite some time,
august 2007-Cd-Raster noton-€19.99

galaxy 500. Then thrown in a tiny bit of modern psyche folk in the mix along
with the quirky pop sounds of panda bear. A really lovely new addition to
the ever reliable social registry label. August 2007-Cd-The social
registry-€15.99

sand blended with the slightly more dramatic chamber sounds of the

Crows of the world-Volume one-This is rumoured to be the first in a series
of ten compilations centred around the bird family corvidae which includes
blackbirds and crows, the link between that and the music on this disc seem
to me to be pretty obscure but anyway lets get on with the music, the album
features two discs packed with some of the biggest names on the free folk
and drone noise scene at the moment including the likes of finnish artist
keijo virtanen, brad rose aka north sea and matt christensen aka zelienople,
the album features some lenghty and truly haunting drone and white noise
based sounds at times comparable to the mighty boris and at other times
similar to the free improv sounds of the no neck blues bands, its a real
feast for lovers of the more melodic side of free noise sounds and is
actually quite a soothing and relaxing listen once you allow all the noise
to envelope you, limited edition double cd, august 2007-2cd-Last visible
dog-€17.99
Dead c-Future artists-The first full length album in nearly four years from
this highly influential new zealand based avant rock outfit, the album opens
up with 13 minutes of totally drone based feedback driven noise with just a
lonely isolated floor tom keeping the dirge like timing, there are elements
of the likes of boris in there along with something akin to some of sonic
youths early experiments, things get back to normal on the next few tracks
as the detuned strummed guitars come to the fore resembling some kind of way
out there psychedelic garage rock from the sixties, you can see why bands
like sonic youth and wolf eyes reference these guys as influences within
seconds of the second track the magician, if you fancy a bit of discordant
noise then these guys are probably way up the top of the ladder at this
stage, august 2007-Cd-Ba da bing-€15.99
Deep river of song-Georgia-Another fine installment in the alan lomax
recorded deep river of song series, this one concentrates on the georgia
area, the album features a total of 22 tracks recorded by the lomax family

recordings from blind willie mctell including a sterling version of boll
weevil, along with these are some really lovely folk spirituals and some
really haunting prison work songs, its a really fine cross section of sounds
from this period and the album also comes with some highly detailed liner
notes and short essays on the artists and recording included, compiled by
the rounder label in 2001-Cd-Rounder records-€17.99
Distractors-Last stand-The distractors are a new dublin based outfit and
this is their debut ep released on their own label, the ep features last
stand along with moon, the main track is a heavy blast of guitar led indie
rock with plenty of ballsy rock n roll influences, calls to mind the kind of
catchy but still heavy alt rock sounds of the likes of the foo fighters,
august 2007-Cds-Own label-€3.99
Figurines-Skeleton-This new album from danish based outfit figurines
originally came out sometime last year in their native country, the album
opens up with a lovely piano led ballad calling to mind the mellow sounds of
sufjan stevens before launching into some really classic indie rock sounds,
at times the album sounds like a heavenly blend of the slacker rock sounds
of pavement meets the very catchy but clever sounds of the likes of weezer,
the album is exploding with infectiously catchy high quality alt rock sounds
with a real feelgood factor, if you like any of the above mentioned bands
along with say the flaming lips or even mercury rev then you will love this,
august 2007-Cd-The control group-€16.99
Goatreign-Goatreign-Solo project from mike hickey who has played guitars in
extreme metal outfits venom, carcass, cronos and cathedral, hickey is joined
by longtime collaborator shawn progen on drums, this album was released
earlier this year as a very cdr only and now comes with five additional
bonus tracks, the album features some really classic sounding old style
metal like some great big lumbering beast raised on seventies rock and the
grinding sounds of labels like earache and roadrunner, its totally authentic
gutteral metal with no fancy trend setting ingredients added and its just
like that in my opinion, august 2007-Cd-Wabana-€17.99
Hala strana-Heave the gambrel roof-The fourth album from californian based
musician steven r smith under his hala strana moniker, the album is a really
lovely blend of traditional eastern folk music and the slightly more avant
garde folk sounds of the likes of john fahey or robbie basho, as the likes
of accordian and harmonium create hypnotic drone like sounds smith then
layers lots of gently plucked guitars, banjos and mandolins over the top of
it, the resulting album sounds like the meeting of early twentieth century
appalachian folk music and the eastern european folk sounds, what is
particularly appealing about this collection that it appears to be entirely
assembled using only acoustic sounds layered over each other, the lack of
digital trickery is quite appealing for a change, august 2007-Cd-Music
fellowship-€18.99
In the spirit-The gospel and jubilee recordings of trumpet records-A
wonderful collection of raw gospel sounds made for the trumpet label set up
by lillian mcmurry in the early fifties, the album features 16 vocal led

australian based songwriting sisters tessa and susannah rubinstein, the
album was produced by kramer and released on his second shimmy label, the
album features some really lovely laid back mellow alt country sounds and is
quite a departure from their last album confessions, the album is much more
of a song based collection, at times the album calls to mind the sounds of
the cowboy junkies meets neko case with a wee bit of cat power thrown in,

the byrds and the smiths, this collection compiles their first album from
1987 along with four tracks from their 12 inch ep this nelson rockefeller
and also a rare track from the compilation a la guillotine, there is plenty
of breezy jangly pop reminiscent of the likes of the go betweens in here,

bounce off tempo rhythms off each other, august 2007-Cd-Wet nurse-€14.99

Amiina-Kurr-The debut album from this icelandic based four piece who are
probably best known for their work with sigur ros and efterklang, the band
features four classically trained musicians, the album features some really
beautiful almost classical like compositions with little elements of
victorian music box sounds, along with their use of lush strings the girls
throw in lots of chiming bells and strange sound effects to create a sound
that could be described as an orchestra covering the music of either sigur
ros or mum, whilst it does have its kooky elements it truly is one of the
most beautiful albums around at the moment, comes packaged in an adorable
big hardback card sleeve, july 2007-Cd-Ever records-€16.50
Baim, matteah-Death of the sun-Matteah baim is probably better known as one
half of metallic falcons, the album also features contributions from jana
hunter and devendra banhart, this is an album of some really beautiful and
very haunting folk sounds like a slight more psyche folk version of marissa
nadler or early cat power, featuring the barest of background sounds baim
keeps things down to delicately plucked piano, slide guitars and lots of
gentle but weird sound effects, just one listen to her almost operatic vocal
delivery and you will be hooked, july 2007-Lp-Dicristina-€15.99
Bat for lashes-Fur and gold-Fur and gold is the debut album from bat for
lashes based around the voice and songwriting of natasha khan, the album was
produced in conjunction with faultlines david kosten and whilst she is
getting mentions along the lines of joanna newsom this album has a much more
lush and electronic edge to it compared to miss newsom, there are elements
of the more stripped down early kooky sounds of bjork with the haunting
spacial sounds of mazzy star and the lush arrangement of kate bush, the
album has a very lush and sometimes funky centre to it as khan works her
magic around the basic sounds, november 2006-Cd-Echo-€17.99
Beastie boys-The mix up-This is the beasties 7th studio album, 12 tracks of
totally instrumental grooves and workouts featuring the keyboards of
longtime collaborator money mark and percussionist alfredo ortiz, the album
is a completely live collection of sounds featuring no vocals or samples,
its great to hear these guys going back to their roots with just drums,
guitars and bass, the album features some rather excellent seventies funk
sounds with hints of sixties psychedelic funk and even one track where the
boys do a very very good job at some funky dub reggae, comes in a card
gatefold sleeve, august 2007-Lp-Capitol-€18.99
Black rebel motorcycle club-Berlin-Limited edition red vinyl pressing,
features berlin tony hoffer remix along with new track 20 hours on the flip
side, features some more fine sleazy rock sounds akin to some of the later
jesus and mary chain sounds or even a much more garage rock sounding dandy
warhols, august 2007-7"-Drop the gun recordings-€3.99
Boris-Rainbow-Japanese psyche rock outfit return with a new album and their
first collaboration with ghost member michio kurihara, the album sees boris
move slightly more into noisy psyche rock and away from some of their more
recent drone based albums, dont worry as there are still plenty of pure
freakout moments and totally distorted psyche rock though, at times the
album sounds like a totally distorted psyche rock take on the shoegazing
sounds of the nineties but as only boris know how, other moments have more
of a ghost influence as kurihara takes them off on a total seventies psyche
rock journey, another essential purchase for boris fans and also for lovers
of high quality noise rock, may 2007-Cd-Drag city-€16.99
Cash, johnny-The original sun sound-A wonderful collection of early singles

Deerhunter-Cryptograms and flourescent grey ep-This is one of the most
varied album you are ever likely to hear from the kranky label, its a big
distance from the usual electronic and drone based sounds that kranky are
famous for, there are still moments of layered guitar based droning sounds
within this album but its much more of a full live band affair with lots of
quirky off kilter indie rock thrown in, there is also lots of bass driven
angular math rock sounding a bit like a more psychedelic girls against boys
meets the gang of four, limited edition double vinyl pressing which now
comes with the new foourescent grey ep on side four, april
2007-2lp-Kranky-€18.99
Demons claws-Satans little pet pig-Montreal based rockin outfit on the in
the red label, lo fi distorted garage rock vibes sounding at times like the
meeting of the gun club, early stooges and the sounds of the back from the
grave compilations on the crypt label, the ablum is full of sleazy blues
rock sounds with a sound comparable to the great billy childish or murder
city devils at times too and in particular the raw sound quality of the
album, february 2007-Lp-In the red-€14.99
Dntel-Dumb luck-Jimmy tamborello returns with his dntel project and his
first album for six years, tamborello is also a member of the postal service

andrew broder from fog, conor oberst from bright eyes, christopher and
jennifer gunst from mystic chords of memory, chris hathwell from moving
units and paul larson from the minor cannon, tamborello has found the
perfect middle ground between lush electronic pop sounds and the slighly
more quirky electronic sounds of the likes of animal collective or black
dice, the sounds have a lovely happy pulsating beat to them giving the album
a real joyous electronic pop feel whilst the use of off tempo beats and
samples adds a nice quirky edge to the album, a highly complex album which
reveals something new every time you listen to it, may 2007-Cd-Moshi
moshi-€16.50
Earth-Hibernaculum-Earth return with possibly one of their finest album to
date, the album features 3 older gems now reworked and one brand new epic
track, the album carries on from the hex album with its beautifully slow
almost morricone like sparse desert sounds, the distortion of older earth
album is toned down and the new sound now includes some lovely slide guitars
along with pianos and trumpet, the album has a really haunting undercurrent
to it with the deep bass drones creaing the backbone for the sparse strummed
guitars and pedal steel effects, try to imagine the likes of mogwai writing
a soundtrack to paris texas, a real gem, pressed on limited edition heavy
vinyl and comes in a heavy card sleeve, may 2007-Lp-Southern lord-€18.99
Earthless-Rhythms from a cosmic sky-Earthless is the brainchild of mario
rubalaba aka ruby mars from rocket from the crypt and also hot snakes, this
new trio are quite a distance away from the sounds of his former band with a
real emphasis on psychedelic noise rock jams and drug induced kraut rock,
the band also features mike eginton from electric nazarene and isaiah
mitchell from nebula, this is quite possibly one of the finest psychedelic
rock albums i have ever heard, try to imagine jimi hendrix jamming with
black sabbath, hawkwind, parliament and early metallica, the album features
two extremely long guitar led instrumental tracks along with a superb cover
of the groundhogs classic cherry red, this is pure psychedelic stoner rock
with endless wah wah heavy guitar solos with some real heavy funky
basslines, if you love endless heavy psychedelic guitar solos then you wind
find a better album than this around at the moment, a truly mind bending
experience, may 2007-Cd-Tee pee-€19.99
Feist-1234-Taken from her recent reminder album, the track is a real bouncy
singalong summery piece of alternative pop with feists husky tones winning
me over every time, the single comes backed with a heavy eighties synth pop
tinged remix of sealion by chromeo, august 2007-7"-Polydor-€3.99
Funkadelic-One nation under a groove-This funkadelic album was originally
released way back in 1978 and has long been considered to be one of their
finest albums of all time, the album has now been reissued by the get back
label and still comes in the original sleeve artwork, the album features
gems like the title track itself along with maggot brain, into you, cholly,
groovallegiance, who says a funk band cant play rock, lunchmeataphobia and
more, 2004-Lp-Get back-€12.99

six classic sonics tracks, features their versions of caught you red handed,
cinderella, the witch, have love will travel, strychnine and boss hoss,

retro garage rock outfits and still sound good twenty years later, this is
pure classsic garage rock complete with sleazy hammond organ solos and
screeching vocal howls, limited edition 10 inch vinyl pressing, february
2007-10"-Beyond your mind-€13.99
Gerrard, lisa-The silver tree-Brand new solo album from the former vocalist
with dead can dance, the album features a selection of new tracks written by
gerrard with orchestration from patrick cassidy, the album features some
really haunting sounds with gerrards spine tingling voice blended over
minimal washes of synth and lots of slow moving orchestral sounds, the album
is quite similar to her score for the whalerider film, limited double vinyl
pressing, comes on heavyweight vinyl and in a gatefold sleeve, april
2007-2lp-Subway records-€23.99
Iron and wine-The sea and the rhythm-5 track mini album from sam beam and
co, originally released in 2003 on sub pop, indie lo fi sounds like sebadoh
meets nick drake at times, the album features beneath the balcony, the sea
and the rhythm, the night descending, jesus the mexican boy and someday the
waves, the album also features a coupon for a free mp3 download of the
entire album, this is the first time this album has been available on vinyl,
july 2007-Lp-Sub pop-€8.99
Jesu-Conqueror-Brand new full length album from justin broadrick on the
conspiracy label, broadrick used to be in both napalm death and then
godflesh, this album has a lot more of godflesh in it than his previous jesu
recordings and to my ears that is no bad thing, broadrick has recruited
diammuid dalton on bass and ted parsons on drums to give the album a much
more live feel, try to imagine a blend of the heavy metal edged sounds of
godflesh and the dreamy wall of noise guitars of my bloody valentine and
then add in broadricks dreamy shoegazing like vocals over the top of it all,
the majority of tracks on the album range from 7 to 10 minutes which gives
the tracks time to move through various phases of layered soundscapes and
its all the better for it too, its truly one of the finest things this man
has put his name to and that is high praise considering his past exploits,
stunning stuff and its great to see somebody putting the rock back in post
rock again, very limited double vinyl pressing on heavyweight vinyl and
comes in a heavy card gatefold sleeve, april 2007-2lp-Hydra head-€24.99
Kammerflimmer kollektief-Jinx-The sixth album from german based artist
thomas weber and his kammerflimmer kollektief on the staubgold label, weber
has expanded his sound on this new collection to include some lovely almost
jazzy like electronica and glitchy laptop sounds along with plenty of live
instrumentation, the closest thing i can compare this to is the very lush
sounds of the likes of telefon tel aviv with added brass and slide guitar
thrown in, lovely stuff and well worth a listen, may
2007-Lp-Staubgold-€18.99
Kings of leon-Because of the times [red vinyl]-This is real back to basics
rock n roll from the kings of leon again, more reminiscent of their debut
album again with a real emphasis on classic balls to the wall southern rock,
the album opens up with the hypnotic seven minute long track knocked up
before launching into twelve more short sharp blasts of old school rock n
roll, this is the reason we all fell in love with these guys, very very
limited red vinyl pressing, july 2007-Lp-The control group-€19.99
Kurihara, michio-Sunset notes-Solo album from the japanese guitarist and
frontman with ghost along with recent collaborations with drone masters
boris, kurihara has put together an album of mostly instrumental guitar
sounds but its far from what you might expect from his psychedelic based
sounds with ghost, this is a real laid back album with lots of delicate solo
guitar work, beautifully strummed guitars blend in with subtle solo work to
form a very soothing listening experience, the album is released on former
galaxy 500 members damon and naoimis label and its easy to see why this pair
wanted to release this album as it does kind of recall some of the galaxy
500 sounds, the sounds range from the slow mournful psychedelic rock up to
some dick dale like surf sounds, july 2007-Cd-20 20 20-€13.99
Little xs for eyes-Ep-The debut five track mini album from this new irish
based outfit, the band features members of butterfly explosion, 66e and life
after modelling, the album features some really lovely downbeat country
tinged folk sounds with comparisons to the likes of mazzy star meets cat
power or even neko case, the opening two tracks are two of the most
beautiful alt country tracks sounding like a more laid back cowboy junkies
with the almost whispered vocal delivery of hope sandoval, really lovely
stuff well worthy of your attention, the album features shell use you lou,
the rubble of love, confident you, sleepwalking and little boat rowing, july
2007-Cd-Own label-€6.99
New young pony club-Fantastic playroom-The debut album from this bunch of
giddy punk funk kids on the modular label, features the singles ice cream
and the bomb, the album is full of uptempo indie rock meets punk funk
sounds, its all done with a real sense of fun and comes across like the
meeting of the minimal punk funk of esg meets the more modern sounds of
brazils css, along with the bass driven punk funk sounds there are lots of
electro pop influences, july 2007-Cd-Modular-€17.99
New young pony club-The bomb-Limited edition remix ep from the new young
pony club, four track ep, features phones collateral damage mix, the
teenagers lou crush remix, kaos disco bomb extended dub and the original
version of the bomb, the main track is a fine piece of modern punk funk with
a little nod towards the shouty riot grrrl sounds of old, you may try not to
like it but its infectiously catchy, april 2007-12"-Modular recordings-€5.99
Pantha du prince-This bliss-German producer hendrik weber returns wiith a
new selection of ambient and minimal techno sounds on the kompakt label, the
album is full of mellow late night ambient sounds and at times is comparable
to the damn fine field album also on the kompakt label from earlier this
year, featuring the most mellow of techno beats weber weaves lots of lovely
warm electronic sounds over the top aswell as his clever use of strings and
orchestral sounds, double vinyl pressing, july 2007-Lp-Kompakt-€20.99
People press play-People press play-The debut album from this danish four
piece on the morr music label, the band features thomas knak from opiate,
anders remmer from dub tractor, jesper skaaning from acustic and vocalist
sara savery, if you were looking for an album that perfectly depicts the
morr music sound then this one would be an ideal place to start, this is
some of the most blissful electronic pop you will hear all year round,
taking their cues from the likes of seefeel, just a touch of my bloody
valentine, lali puna, the notwist and stereolab this outfit have constructed
one of the first feel good albums of the summer, delicate crunchy electronic
beats meets kraftwerk like analog synth sounds and honey toned female
vocals, a real joy from start to finish, july 2007-Cd-Morr music-€17.99
Pterodactyl-Pterodactyl-Pterodactyl are originally from ohio and now based
in brooklyn, this is a really fine collection of math rock meets post punk
noises coming on like some really noisy garage rock take on the sounds of
the likes of deerhoof, the band have found some happy middle ground between
old school guitar riff action and the rhythmic pulsating drum led sounds of
the likes of don caballero or shellac, try to imagine don caballero being
led by the singer from the make up, excellent stuff, released on the jag
jaguwar offshoot label brah records, april 2007-Cd-Brah records-€15.99
Rakes-Ten new messages-The rakes return with ten new selections of new wave
tinged indie rock on the v2 label, their sound falls somewhere between the
slightly darker edged new wave sounds of the likes of interpol and the
slacker rock vibes of some later pavement albums, the rakes have also added
in plenty of pulsating electronic beats and heavy synth sounds into the mix
on this new collection, heavy indie rock sounds with a slighly dark heart to
it, pressed on heavyweight vinyl, april 2007-Lp-V2-€13.50

Rough bunnies-Weisse westen dreck am-Swedish based duo with their first
album to be made available outside sweden after having released three very
very limited cdr releases, you will hear little bits of the velvet
underground, early beck, beat happening, the vaselines, moldy peaches and
even shonen knive, the album is full of short lo fi sounds like some old
style indie pop meets the sounds of the anti folk movement, the album comes
in a lovely hand made card sleeve using recycled old vinyl sleeves turned
inside out, july 2007-Lp-Ypsilanti records-€17.99
Sickboy-The a tune-The debut ep from this young dublin based four piece
outfit released on their own label slap in the face records, features the a
tune, suicide crimes against remix, blind fever and a cd rom video track for
the a tune, these guys sound like a more modern new wave tinged killing joke
with lots of added post punk elements, big chunky basslines, scratchy
echoing guitar riffs and a vocal delivery to match either interpol or the
killers, july 2007-Cds-Slap in the face records-€4.99
Silver daggers-New high and ord-La based no wave outfit on the load label,
these guys throw together the discordant sounds of repetitive no wave sounds
with the noise core of the likes of melt banana and the percussive math rock
of shellac, with the addition of a totally fuzzed up saxophone this makes
for one hell of a noisy listen, imagine a slightly more song orientated
lightning bolt with added saxophones and siouxsie sioux on vocals or even
early sonic youth jamming with the slits, its all perfectly controlled lo fi
madness, july 2007-Lp-Load records-€12.99

Sunn o and boris-Altar-This is a real marriage made in heaven for lovers of
doom and drone metal out there, japanese drone experts boris team up with
sunn o led by stephen o malley, the album also features dylan carlson from
doom legends earth, the album is a truly haunting and bass heavy collection
of some of the scariest doom metal sounds you will hear all year long, to me
it sounds more like a boris album with sunn o adding in their own little
influences, the screeching solos that attracted me to boris are in full flow
throughout, there are some rather beautiful but still rather scary quieter
moments particularly on track three the singing belle when the sound is
stripped down to piano and some sublime vocals, track four sees the band
move into something altogether new with a song based around a pounding snare
drum and trombone, these guys are much more than just metal doom merchants
as you will hear from just one listen to this album, this is like the
soundtrack to your most extreme nightmares, truly awesome, comes in a
cardboard gatefold digi pack with booklet, november 2006-Cd-Southern
lord-€18.99
Sunn o and boris-Altar limited edition-This is a real marriage made in
heaven for lovers of doom and drone metal out there, japanese drone experts
boris team up with sunn o led by stephen o malley, the album also features
dylan carlson from doom legends earth, the album is a truly haunting and
bass heavy collection of some of the scariest doom metal sounds you will
hear all year long, to me it sounds more like a boris album with sunn o
adding in their own little influences, the screeching solos that attracted
me to boris are in full flow throughout, there are some rather beautiful but
still rather scary quieter moments particularly on track three the singing
belle when the sound is stripped down to piano and some sublime vocals,
track four sees the band move into something altogether new with a song
based around a pounding snare drum and trombone, these guys are much more
than just metal doom merchants as you will hear from just one listen to this
album, this is like the soundtrack to your most extreme nightmares, truly
awesome, very very limited triple vinyl pressing, pressed on heavyweight
brown vinyl, comes in a heavy card gatefold sleeve with a stunning full size
booklet inside with photos, will definitely win the sleeve of the year award
around here anyway, april 2007-3lp-Southern lord-€38.99
Takeovers-Bad football-The takeovers are a new outfit featuring ex guided by
voices member robert pollard and chris slusarenko, since the break up of
guided by voices pollard seems to have no end of new side projects on the
go, this new one sees him rock out quite a bit more compared to his recent
solo release silverfish trivia, the album also features guitars on one track
from the legendary tad doyle, the album features some of the slacker rock
influences of guided by voices but also features a lot more sixties garage
rock sounds, the album features lots of heavy indie rock sounds with lots of
clever pop edges, july 2007-Cd-Off records-€15.99
Tauchsieder-Louder-Tauchsieder are an electronic based three piece made up
by innes smith, stuart mclean and ben hayes, the album also features guest
appearences and contributions from optimos dj twitch, colin newman from
wire, richard x and also tom elland from severed head, the album features 19
pieces of pure laid back electronic ambience, mellow pulsating analog
keyboard sounds slowly mingle with lots of oscillator sounds along with
sampled vocals and lots of rustic field recordings, the sounds range from
the totally ambient sounds of early brian eno to the slighly more synth
based sounds coming across like some kind of ambient drumless space rock,
there are odd touches of dubby ambient sounds comparable to the orb or even
pole, perfect headphone music, july 2007-Cd-Prank monkey-€18.99
Taxi taxi-Taxi taxi-The debut mini album from these two talented swedish
teenage twins on the rumraket label, the band features miriam and johanna
eriksson, the six tracks featured here were lovingly produced by bjorn
yttling from peter bjorn and john, its a beautiful raw production with a
natural sounding reverb on their voices and the barest of acoustic guitar
and piano to accompany them, its the voices of this pair that will really
blow you away though, its not that often you hear a band with two superbly
matched voices, these girls seem to have a love of the darker side of folk
music with a sound falling somewhere between the likes of marissa nadler and
early cat power, the vocal range though is really something to behold as
they can switch from kooky whispered vocals up to some haunting high pitched
dual, i love it when some like this comes along and just quietly blows you
away, highly recommended, july 2007-Cd-Rumraket-€13.99
Tindersticks-Bbc sessions-Double cd collection from their numerous bbc radio
sessions, features a total of 26 tracks hand picked by the band themselves,
the collection also comes with a lovely booklet containing sleeve notes from
david boulter, features tracks going right back to their john peel session
from april 1993 up to their mark radcliffe sessions from february 1997, a
fine album that finds the tindersticks in a much more stripped down mode
with guests including terry edwards on trumpet, mike kearsey on trombone and
tris willaims on vibes, july 2007-Cd-Island-€18.99
Von sudenfed-Tromatic reflexxions-This is brand new project featuring mouse
on mars members andi tom and jan st werner along with the truly legendary
fall frontman mark e smith, no prizes for guessing what this one might sound
like, dare i say try to imagine the pulsating and crunchy electronic sounds
of german based mouse on mars with mark e smith on vocals, the album
features heaps of motorik kraftwerk like heavy electro sounds peppered with
smiths snarling vocal delivery, there is plenty of material on this album
that could quite easily have found its way onto several of the falls albums
from the late eighties or early nineties, if you have ever wondered what
kraftwerk would sound like remixing the fall then mouse on mars have
answered all your questions, this is a real match made in underground music
heaven, may 2007-Lp-Domino-€17.99
Yorkston, james-Woozy with cider-Possibly one of my favourite from yorkstons
most recent album the year of the leopard on domino records, whilst it may
be quite different from his usual mellow laid back folk sound its still a
top quality tune with a simple spoken word ivor cutler like vocal over the
barest tinkling electronic soundscapes, jon hopkins takes yorkstons vocal
track and simple adds some truly beautiful minimal piano behind it and
somehow gives the track a completely different feeling, dubstep producer
kode 9 remixing james yorkston sounds like an odd prospect but somehow it
genuinely works, he adds some delightful dubby beats behind yorkstons
treated vocals with accordian accompaniment to come up with something that
certainly would not sound out of place on the burial album which kode 9 also
produced last year, the ep also features new mixes from king biscuit time,
quiet village and dusty cabinets, limited edition double 12 inch set, march
2007-12"-Domino-€10.99
