(UPDATED) The flap over requiring new Spotify users to have an account on Facebook doesn't appear to be going away anytime soon. That seems to have prompted Spotify executives to send around an updated response to their previous statement: To us, this is all about creating an amazing new world of music discovery. As most of our users are already social and have already connected to Facebook, it seemed logical to integrate Spotify and Facebook logins. We already use Facebook as part of our [...]

It's that time of year again – The X Factor is back! I'd imagine that, as usual, the total number of episodes I'll watch will be a big fat zero. But while the industry trots out the next batch of mechanically recovered, mass produced music substitute, destined to meet its end clogging up a charity shop near you this time next year, it's heartening to know bands like The Heart Strings exist. Inhabiting a world of sunny optimism where even the-morning-after-the night-before is something to sing about ( Nice Hangover ), and one of many [...]

Ottawa's The Flaps played at Mavericks for The Polymorphine 's EP Release show. They were pretty loud on their first song. But later they went to their surfy instrumental rock sound. Didn't stay long since it was getting late. I think the band were playing new tunes on an upcoming album. Here are photos from the show. [...]

The Polymorphines is a Ottawa garage rock band that has been together since 2008 July 30th will be a special night at Mavericks. They are releasing The Slip EP after touring on their widely praised album Transistor Sistor in 2010 (Get Bent Records ). Having recorded the soon to be released The Slip EP with Tim Kerr (Mudhoney, Big Boys) in Austin, Texas in Winter 2011, the boys brought chaos and debauchery to all 10 American dates they headlined in their first Southern States tour this past Spring. The four-member group has gotten tighter, making [...]

The last night of Kelp 17 took place at the Dom Polski on May 7, 2011. It was fun night to close off the celebration. It was night for one band to reunite for the special occasion. With acts playing live were: Andrew Vincent & The Pirates The Flaps Camp Radio [...]

Ottawa's Kelp Records is turning 17 this year. It's becoming an yearly event for myself to see what Kelp Records has in store for their celebration in the music scene. This year's event coincides with CHUO 's Funding Drive. Here is blurb for this year's events ( taken from their site ). We're very excited to announce this year's KELP 17 lineup, happening May 5-7; lots of changes from the usual, and lots of reunion shows too. This year we're throwing [...]

Kelp Records held a great showcase of great Ottawa acts at the Dom Polski on November 20, 2010. I only managed to see three acts. They were: Mike Essoudry's Mash Potato Masher The Flaps vs The Empiricals Andy Swan [...]

Decided to make a separate entry from Day 1 of Bluesfest . Since there were alot of photos I have taken and needed to organize them well. For those that didn't want to check out Iron Maiden and wanted something less heavy. This was one show I decided to check out. This one was the Kelp Records Revue showcase featuring: Andrew Vincent Chris Page [...]

It was a busy Saturday for Kelp 16 . One was the yearly tradition at the Carleton Tavern. This is my third year attending it. What I love about the day show is not because of the music. Its the delicious pull pork sandwiches they make every year. It was a nice day show of music and playing there were Jenny Omnichord , The Secret Loves , Andy Swan , Flecton Big Sky and The Flaps . Somehow I had the energy to attend this event. [...]

Kelp Records is 16 years old. If only Think About Life was on Kelp, then they would be singing "Sweet Sixteen" for them. For those out of the loop. Kelp Records is a Ottawa based music label and its home to various artist like Jim Bryson , Andrew Vincent , Chris Page , The Acorn (who still calls Kelp home). Its becoming an annual tradition celebrating the label's achievement and to have fun with the music. This the second year now that the shows will be taking [...]

Acoustic/indie/weird rock duo reunites for 20th anniversary show

Kelp record. Congrats to reader J.P. for getting the guestlistspot giveaway. Is there much more to say about Kelp Records ? Over the last week, dial613 has typed the label's name on here more times than 'flecton crotch shot' has been Google image-searched in the same timespan, which surely speaks volumes. The 13th Anniversary Weekend lineup is below, along with mp3s for a bunch of the acts. Each show should be a great time, not only for the music, but the atmosphere too: [...]

Amos The Transparent's favourite number is ten, followed closely by 9-1-1 This week is a bit of a sleeper, though not to be confused with being sleepy . As in, it should be a great chance to hear some new and up-and-coming music that you might not have gotten to in a busier week. Specifically, you can see Amos The Transparent , a "new" local band that includes former members of the now-defunct Keep Yourself Good Company and the not-at-all-defunct The Architects , as well as singer-songwriter Ana Miura .
