Half-handed Cloud — the solo project of John Ringhofer, who also plays trombone in Sufjan Stevens' Illinoisemakers — has to be one of the only bands out there right now that is capable of releasing a 5-song EP on a split 7-inch. Those five songs comprise the Blood Brothers EP and in total clock in at only 4.5 minutes, so that actually leaves enough time for the Nordic band I Was A King to supply the chipper, synthy pop number you can stream below, plus a Half-handed Cloud cover. (Half-handed Cloud returns the [...]
One of the bands that I've really enjoyed following over the last several years has been Norway's I Was a King . They've just issued a really small run of a split 73 EP on Splendour Records with Half-Handed Cloud , and I'm really enjoyhing their effort here. There's a great swirling melody that is underscored by the guitar work, one of the prominent instruments in this band's repertoire. If you haven't had an opportunity to check out this band, the time is right [...]

To say that John Ringhofer is an interesting character would be a massive understatement. When he is not busy touring as Sufjan Stevens' trombonist the man lives rent-free in Berkeley, California in exhcange for his services as custodian in a church. The exceedingly titled 'As Stowaways in Cabinets of Surf, We Live-out in Our Members [...]

Our good friend, Bro. Stephen has had a few hand-made releases, but now in collaboration with Crossroads of America Records and Flannelgraph Records and their Laminar Excursion Monthly , he has a new record to share with us. Here's the skinny: The record was record completely live with an all-star band in one afternoon at Russian Recording in Bloomington, IN. There are 4 songs clocking in at exactly 20 minutes (the format is a 33 CD). These songs may be a bit different than [...]

I'd like to introduce a new feature you'll see on The Tape a couple of times a week. Odds & Ends is just a way to post MP3s that we're digging, but don't have enough time to give 'em individual posts. A lot of the music on here will be singles, with full album reviews [...]
We're all missing Summer. Especially with the demise of Melbourne's weather of late. These few tunes should jog your memory of a better time, a time where everything seemed so simple. It was just you, your ipod and your longboard. Half-Handed Clouds - Set Your Beams Not as reminiscent, but ride these too. Chase McBride - House Of Stone Chase McBride - Rivermouth

![[MP3] Half-handed Cloud: "Armstrong's Line"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2629158_lg.jpg)
Half-handed Cloud,is the one-man band that is Hawaii native John Ringhofer, is known for his spirited and zany music career. He'll now be releasing his fifth album, As Stowaways in Cabinets of Surf, We Live-out in Our Members a Kind of Rebirth , on Asthmatic Kitty and the first single from it is just as quirky as the album name might suggest. "Armstrong's Line" packs about as much cute, jarring and jittery energy as possible in a song that barely breaks the two-minute mark. Gotta love the Hawaiian's for this. Stowaways is out September 28 on [...]
