Glasser is Cameron Mesirow using GarageBand in a shoe store and playing live with Matt Popieluch and friends. She works days helping artist Mike Kelley (who you will remember from your Sonic Youth album covers) and sounds like Terry Riley four-tracking with Linda Perhacs but today she is thinking about Ace of Base and Trent Reznor. She speaks now after resisting a Diet Coke. This interview by Chris Ziegler.

The ultimate stupido, locking self out of their own flat. Thankfully some wise man invented drain pipes. This week has been super massive brilliant for new music, coincidence that the summer has finally arrived? I bet. Health open up this evenings proceeding with a riot. One of the big Twitter SXSW buzz bands was definitely Health. Experimental. Electronica. Noise. Melody.

So everyone it's dunch hour, missed brunch due to some TCB (takin care of business) action. I've been listening to the following below today and they all sound pretty good to me. or maybe i've just been sleep deprived and everything is just starting blend together. Some of it you may already know, some maybe not. But I thought I'd spread some dunch love and give you my Sunday jams. Some of you guys probably already know this, but I had no idea Karin Dreijer Andersson of The Knife had an upcoming side project named Fever Ray [...]

Being from LA myself, you think I'd talk a bit more about LA-based artists myself, so I would have thought I'd have posted about Glasser earlier. I learned about Glasser about a month or so ago through work and searching around some CMJ dates, and I finally got to see her/them (the singer is Cameron Mesirow, a friend of many of many of my friends apparently, and whether or not her compatriot/guitarist/backup singer/etc is actually "in" the band or just along for the live ride remains to be determined) open for HSB favorite [...]
Glasser - "Apply" I wanna say I'd love to wake up to this song, but I was so strangely taken by it that I couldn't fall asleep and worked instead. It's a perfect late night song, kind of tribal and a little crazy. Glasser is unsigned and without an official release, although the only band member, Cameron Mesirow, has an album coming out this month. I found this track via a friend's link to Urban Outfitters' blog , which has a 21-track playlist for free download.
