Well, we're just about halfway with the reposts... Today, we feature volumes 9 and 10, which were originally posted in August 2009. Volume 10 holds a special place in this blog's history, because that's when Aaron from Tsururadio offered to post the mix on his blog. That started a bit of following and it has grown ever since. Aaron's moved onto Tsuruphoto, following his passion for photography. He now has a nudie-zine featuring some edgy but tasteful art, several videos to promote the zine and Tsuruphoto, and the occasional mixtape. We owe a big thanks for his early support, and [...]

Not one ounce of an inflated ego detected with this Los Angeles based musician. Currently one half of Adamandevil , Julian Shah-Tayler`s expanding portfolio reads like a hipster`s who`s-who with collaborations and liaisons that many mainstream artists could only dream of, in fact from reading Julian`s bio/credits, multi-instrumentalist, producer and DJ fit nicely within his sublime rock/electronic persona. The forthcoming EP `Un Ange Passe` is currently on pre-release and leads with the hybrid electro/rock track `Wetter` while the elegant, slightly darker parts of the EP create a marvelled Bowie/John Foxx anecdote in a backdrop of current multi-Gigabyte technology. [...]

AdamandEvil was started in Hollywood after Scott Fairbrother and Julian Shah-Tayler from the band Whitey, moved to the west coast in July 2007. After 3 years of touring the world with Whitey and co-writing tracks for the 2nd album (including 'Wrap it Up' which has been placed on (among others) The OC, House, RockStar video game, and Grand Theft Auto IV video game) they decided to go out on their own. Their gothic electro sound is not a million miles away from Whitey, but that makes sense really. You won't be surprised [...]

English Best Friend had her daughter, Audrey on Tuesday night and so this "AIAWW" is dedicated to my new "niece." That girl's gonna be spoiled :) Anyway, not much to report because, well, I'm still unemployed. My life sucks. BUT, I have been giggling at Textsfromlastnight.com and here are some of my favorites: (720): have you ever been in a public bathroom and someone walked in, and you played "Fat or Crying" based on her breathing? (917): i got us presents. or arrested. we shall see! (519): and then she said I [...]
It's that mega-post time again - lots of goodies have been coming our way recently and so here is a sampling of some of the best, both new and old favourites.Firstly, lo-fi noiseniks Wavves have released a demo of a new track titled Mickey Mouse. Thankfully recent problems seem to have been overcome for the time being, and we're looking forward to what else Nathan Williams has got lined up for us

I'm sure everyone has had the miserable experience of getting a song stuck in their head. It happens to me all the time. This morning, however, I had the extra-special treat of having two songs stuck at the same time. I woke up and stumbled into the shower with a mashup of Eiffel 65's I'm Blue and Three Doors Down's Let Me Be Myself (damn you Geico) on repeat in my cranium. What a way to start Friday! Anyway, thanks to a listen of this week's mixtape, my horrible affliction has been cured. I hope it [...]

AdamandEvil started in Hollywood after Scott Fairbrother and Julian Shah-Tayler from the London band Whitey, moved to the west coast in July 2007. They co wrote their 2nd album, Wrap It Up , whihc gave them placement on such shows as The OC (remember that one?) House, and GTA 4. They are currently working on their latest album with Danny Saber (David Bowie/Rolling Stones) The music is indie rock with a touch of electronica, groovy basslines, and catchy guitar riffs make up most of their songs, sprinkle that with some [...]
AdamandEvil was started in Hollywood after Scott Fairbrother and Julian Shah-Tayler from the seminal London band " Whitey ", moved from London, UK to the west coast of America in July 2007. After 3 years of touring the world with Whitey and co-writing the 2nd album, including 'Wrap it Up', they decided to go out on their own. They are currently mixing their self-produced debut album with Danny Saber (David Bowie/Rolling Stones) and have ' Weeds ' placed in the upcoming Val Kilmer film [...]

Being pretty much new to the band, i`m under the distinct impression that the previous incarnation or predecessor to AdamandEvil, London based ` Whitey ` had run it`s course and bowed out leaving a very highly rated long player to argue with. Scott Fairbrother and Julian Shah-Tayler have fresh ideas for their style of Alternative Electrolica , a deliberate attempt to raise Pop sentiments with spacious beats and self produced mixes. If the now Hollywood based duo`s first EP is anything to go by, the quality laden new album will almost certainly be something special. [...]

AdamandEvil - Shooting Stars After several years of jamming in the London band Whitey, Scott Fairbrother and Julian Shah-Tayler packed their bags and flew out to Los Angeles for a fresh start. What resulted was the formation of AdamandEvil, a buzz-making act now on the verge of their debut release and first film credit - their single "Weeds" will be featured in a new Val Kilmer flick called 2:22 . "Shooting Stars" is the first song of their debut EP and my current favorite. At its core is a very simple hip [...]

I think I've mentioned this before, but when I'm writing, I like to do things in threes: three songs, three examples, three whatevers (see?). I feel incomplete and vaguely dissatisfied if I don't. Hence I give you three new songs today. I wouldn't have it any other way! Rachele Eve -- "Harold Moon" mp3 off Mouth of Feathers ( buy ) This song starts off mellow but builds [...]

photo: UNKIEPAUL Finally exams are over which measn I can start to enjoy the summer now. Well, except I'm back next week for a month or so but still, summer! There's a few tracks to check out today but it won't be too long. First songs today come from a band called AdamandEvil , who are an alternative rock band from Britain originally but they have since moved out to America. Their stuff is good, I mean I used to be into Alternative Rock majorly about 3/4 years ago but since [...]
I had the pleasure of seeing AdamandEvil perform recently and have their latest EP on heavy rotation in my dj sets and my living room. Having been a big fan of the seminal London band Whitey, the sound caught my ear and it wasn't until several weeks after listening that I found out that AdamandEvil [...]
