The sun is shining and the day is getting warmer. It was cloudy when I woke up and only 65°. It is supposed to get as high as 75° and be sunny all day, the same with tomorrow. Well, I spend mega bucks at the garden shop yesterday and wrecked my back pulling the heavy cart. Luckily one of my former students works there and he dragged the cart to my car and filled the trunk and the back seat. For the vegetable garden, I bought cucumbers which should be enough to fill the rest of it. I [...]
Internet buzzards have jumped onto live recordings of The XX from their recent intimate London shows and uploaded the tracks "Closer", "Friction", "Strangers" and our favourite "Leave" to Youtube Although the sounds are equivalent to a calculator recording a buzzsaw you can still make the the unmistakable vocals of Romy and Jamie XX plus all kinds of tropical infused steel drums and the like. Fans will appreciate the familiar layered harmonies and pulsed beats giving the yet-to-be-named-album a real chance to top the 2009 'XX' release. Tracklisting from the first show... fill in the [...]
If you've been following us on Twitter you've no doubt been seeing the plethora of tweets going out about new material that The xx played live last week at their three London shows. Hell....you might've even posted them on your own site and not given us a via, who knows? What started off as a trickle of videos from their first show turned into more of a steady stream of videos from their last two shows, mostly of one song in particular, as yet without a known title though speculatively [...]
Género: Indie pop, folk. Cheers Elephant , cuarteto de Philadelphia formado por Derek Krzywicki (vocals, guitar), Travelin' Mat (bass, vocals), Jordan del Rosario (guitar, vocals) y Roberto Kingston (drums) que acaban de poner en circulación su tercer largo titulado Like Wind Blows Fire . Leaves es la muestra del disco, y cuando suena desaparecen las nubes. Es una vivaz propuesta pop que ilumina las mañanas mediante ágiles armonias y exhuberante orquestación. Una perlita pop con hipnóticas cuerdas y cierto aroma folk que agradará a [...]
Atmospheric LA beatmaker Matthewdavid has just released a rather special CD-R package of moody, barren soundscapes. At times warm, at others cold and hostile, but always thought-provoking. It should come as no surprise that an artist whose XLR8R podcast included track titles as "Mexican tape from the '80s I ended up throwing away" should release an album that sounds like it's packed full of field recordings, tape delays and no end of knob-twiddling weirdness. The new record 'Disk II' will see a limited release of just 150 copies [...]
It's always nice when more than one member of the band can sing. It adds vocal variety of course, but it influences the band in other subtle ways too, like in the songwriting for example: possibilities open up (call and response, reverb and so on). For the Philadelphia band, Cheers Elephant, it means that they can be [...]
When I opened the front door this morning, the sun came pouring in then just a little bit later it disappeared. It's appeared again, and Fern is lying straight out on her back basking in the sun. A breeze makes the day seem colder than it is and is strong enough to sway the bird feeders, but the birds don't seem to mind. Male goldfinches with their bright yellow chests, a pair of cardinals, my friends the chickadees and the nuthatches and titmice are all dropping by for a late breakfast. I have nothing planned for today. I'm [...]

Low Leaf put out some more music for you all today with her latest titled "Pyramid of Leavez". The song feels as though it belongs to the sounds of some scary "Lost" type forrest. Low Leaf's beautiful but eerie vocals and the trippy space sounds that accompany them make this another great release from Low Leaf. Check it below and be on the lookout for shows from Low Leaf in an area near you...
Rain maybe later tonight, but for now it has stopped. Last night the rain had an icy feel about it, and being outside felt miserable. Today is brighter with white clouds, and I'll take it and be glad. Gracie and I will hit the dump later today, one of her all time favorite trips. The trunk is already filled, and I just have to find the ambition. When I was a kid, the simplest things gave me joy. I loved walking through the piles of leaves beside the sidewalk. I'd kick the piles using one foot [...]
By this time of year people are usually complaining about the cold and the snow and the whereabouts of spring. You meet someone in the supermarket and right away the conversation turns to the weather where you have common grounds about which to chat as you choose your pasta. The word cold is bandied about as people whine and complain and you pick the ziti. This year, though, is entirely different. Cold has a new definition and complaining has taken a different form. Now we complain when the weather is in the 302s, a temperature which used to be a [...]
Artist : Message To Bears Title : Folding Leaves Label : Dead Pilot Records Release Date : January 16th BUY IT Written by Tom Johnson I've really struggled to write this review. Which is in no way meant as a negative comment against either the artist or their work, but is perhaps reflective of the overall [...]
With Lions "Leaving Me" video Christian Celaya (Benzos) and Woody Ranere (Lake Trout) make up the group known as WITH LIONS and November 1st, 2011 marked the kick-off of an ambitious four-EPs-a-year cycle with the release of, "Touch the Sound." Epic and cinematic, With Lions' EPs are broken into mini scores. Dark, saturated harmony, their music can only be described in film terms. "We try to score life," says Celaya. Director Raffi Asdourian says, "When I first sat down with Woody and Christian to discuss their vision for With Lions, I instantly felt a kindred [...]
wasn't the DRAKE suppose to take care of you ? the RIHANNA was jpeged keeping up on her well-being by arriving at the UCLA Medical Building in Los Angeles town over the weekender. no official confirmation if the she-popper laid on the floor of a tacky 902s snow lodge and wrapped herself in the rug. to be continued. wotyougot
This morning was warm, sunny and quiet when I left for breakfast. When I got home, my yardmen were just finishing clearing the pine needles from the front lawn and the oak leaves from the deck and driveway. I could see grass and pavement for the first time in a long while; however, soon after the men left, the wind started again, and the pine needled have begun reclaiming the lawn. Now the clouds have rolled in and the sun has disappeared. The day is much like yesterday, drab. While I was talking to my sister, I watched [...]
Streets and backyards are covered with brown oak leaves, recent victims of the last three days of winds. Pine needles in the front yard cover the lawn and garden. My world is drab and messy. Today Miss Gracie is six years old. After I finish here, we have to go to Agway for dog food so she'll get to pick a couple of gifts and a treat or two. Gracie won't think this too special as it happens almost every time we go to Agway. Dogs are meant to be spoiled. I sent out my Thanksgiving [...]
That beautiful sun is on hiatus, and the last couple of days have been cloudy. Last night it rained. The oak tree by the driveway has only one branch left with any leaves. All the rest of the leaves have fallen and completely covered my driveway. The wind is blowing the bare branches and the day is completely uninviting. I have this vision of me in the living room on my chaise lounge listening to Hawaiian music and wearing something flowered while I drink out of a coconut with a small colorful umbrella and a cherry on a stick that [...]
