Be comfortable in your shoes with this simplistic pair of plimsolls! For Spring-Summer 2013, Kitsuné designed these trendy trainers in a white canvas, destined to freely frolic with you, along exotic trips or public gardens picnics. Its fine details, as the gold finishing and the navy "Kitsuné" embroidered on the tongue and printed on the [...]

Just when I think Vermont has little to offer the musical world but jam bands on skis, it turns out Brattleboro has a happening little freakout scene. I've been digging into the wild cartoon soundworld of Blanche Blanche Blanche, and I suspect my mind will be the weirder for it. With 10 or so albums blasted out in the last couple years, I truly admire their work ethic, nearly as much as I do the zigzag logic of the songs themselves. Ariel Pink is a natural touchstone for these guys, but the aforementioned rustic homeland lends them a friendly, non-menacing [...]

Botnek's Back 2 School Mix With less than two weeks before the school year hits, Canadian duo Botnek dropped a mixtape to cushion your late summer woes. Erase that frown with a slew of jaunting glitchy house sounds that have yet to be ID'd and look at the bright side. Frosh week is just around the corner and the Faceless fam are embarking on a tour that could be smashing your local watering hole. Botnek , Meati , Meech , and Wenzell are all [...]

Yo guys its been a while since I last posted or even came on here. I think its been a month and a half or so? Anyways its been a while and I have my reasons why. All I can say is that my computer life has been really FUBAR the previous month and I needed to lay low for a while as it got really tense and rather mood killing. I do apologize for not being able to update you on this sooner (hell, until the middle of last week I wasn't even on Facebook at all either). [...]
Creepy. Anyway, during this recent "not-posting-but-lurking" period, i discovered some cool tracks. And yes, it is a random tracks post, but fear not, as soon as i get my shit done (which should be in about a week), i will make a specific post on a specific artist, but for now, onto the tracks. We start off with a little british band called Delphic. This track is off their debut album called "Acolyte" and guess what, im posting the title track itself! It is nearly 9 minutes of a brilliant progressive track, which starts off [...]
![Raw Man + Blanche [Original + Remix]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2176090_lg.jpg)
Neverest is another fun, feel-good electro-pop party jam coming across AN . It's pretty catchy. So much so, that I think you'll all be boppin by the end of it. Raw Man has been up to no good lately. Already killing it, he teamed up with Blanche to create one well-established duo. Blanche is the French producers girlfriend, and soon to be wife. From what I can tell this is her debut project. Raw Man realized her talent when she was singing in the shower one [...]

Conrad Murray, the cardiologist at the centre of the inquiry into Michael Jackson's death, is no stranger to the judicial system. Murray has been arrested twice for failure to pay child support, most recently in April and before that in 2007, reports radaronline. The offences relate to a son he fathered in California with Nenita Malibiran. Although he was charged and sentenced, Murray did not serve time. Both sentences were stayed before Murray came up with funds to satisfy authorities. The entertainment website alleges its probe reveals Murray had a "messy personal life" and [...]

Again the ongoing dynamics of music promotion is rearing it`s reverberant head and to be honest, kinda leaving me a little puzzled. I gratefully receive many PR mails daily, most have indeed bothered to research our tastes, maybe checking their artist or band would be suitable for mojophenia. An artist bio with hi-res promo pictures is always included and a label cleared Mp3 to post normally gets slotted within their shiny happy email. What do 90% of these eager and efficient well presented bundles of info have in common ? Yes, they all originate from the US. Whether it`s West [...]

Tyvek seem to thrive at being musically laid bare, I have visions of the band roaming the streets somewhere around Michigan and stealing their instruments from an unlocked van nearby. Things do seem to rattle along nicely on the self titled debut album, obscure guitar riffs and relentless rhythms give you the distinct impression the band have absolutely no control over the monster they have created. Uncrafted but intriguingly raw US Punk splashed with Cale`s Velvet Underground without the blonde idiot. "Tyvek will be packing up and continuing to tour extensively in North America and [...]

It is absolutely trivial to note that certain songs crop up over and over again in the folk collector's travels; after all, as our blog subtitle reminds us, when we talk about folk, we're talking about a form that by its very nature treats older songs and tunes as part of the communication which makes us community, available to all who lay claim to culture. But just as true hitmaking is hardly formulaic, it's not often obvious what keeps a song in the stream. Our Single Song [...]

Here we are in September, not quite at fall, but still in a post-Labor day (for us in the States), early September haze. Those of us in school have returned to academia, those of us who go for nighttime jogs have found the air to be a bit chili, but those of us who drive a car have still fond the steering wheel extremely hot after prolonged exposure to the end of summer sun. Mother nature seems to be teasing people in this stretch of time: it's sunny and warm during the day when most of us are at work, [...]

Photography by the REAL Aaron Dunn Happy Friday y'all! Yeeee-haw! Let's go out with something pretty sweet and meaty, like beef fucking jerky, via Blanche's If We Can't Trust The Doctors ... Coming off as a mutant child of REM's " Country Feedback " (seriously, click that youtube link, just beautiful, I picked today's art inspiration by my good friend Aaron Dunn while listening to it) and Isobel Campbell & Mark Lanegan but raised in the deep south, to get that extra bit of [...]
JKneale is in the US so I thought I'd write about band from across the pond. Actually that's a lie as I've been meaning to write about Little Amber Bottles by Blanche for some time. So not something new (it came out last year), but another blog about an outfit beginning with B...curious. I'm no expert [...]
Blanche - Little Amber Bottles (V12) J'ai toujours eu un faible pour les duo mixtes, quelque soit le genre, les chansons qui se répondent m'entraine toujours dans un idéal révé où il fait bon vivre. Blanche n'est pas un duo, mais un groupe de Detroit, parrainé par les White Stripes pendant un temps, ils ont pas mal joué dans le circuit rock, alors qu'ils jouent de la country. De la country certes, mais pas comme les autres, une country loin des clichés nauséabonds que l'on a tous. Enfin bref, ils [...]

Podcast!! Podcast webpage Direct Link RSS Feed For some reason, Libsyn seems to think I'm using 100 MB storage, which means they think I'm over quota. This means that this podcast won't be on iTunes or other podcatchers until supposedly tomorrow. Anyhow, in the meantime it should still be available for direct download. I'm only actually using 75 MBs, so I'm understandably unhappy with Libsyn

Im Zuge des am Freitag kommunizierten Planes eines Rundumschlages der Ifpi gegen ihre Konsumenten, sollte auch wieder einmal betont werden, dass es auch legale mp3s gibt, die man aus dem bösen Internet downloaden und teilen darf. Und ich verstehs einfach nicht: welche Branche verklagt schon ihre eigenen Kunden?
