People have to talk about something just to keep their voice boxes in working order so they'll have good voice boxes in case there's ever anything really meaningful to say. -Kurt Vonnegut At home, super sick, and devoid of a voice. There's just something about being unable to speak that forces you into your own mind, so what better thing for me to do today than share some beautiful things with you?

Bonjour fellow blogeurs et blogettes. I've decided to introduce a fresh take on our "not-so-daily mixtapes" and bring something new to the table. The following mixtape was created in a very different way. I choose a song, my collaborator chooses a song that they believe it should lead into, and so on and so forth. C/L/O/U/D_S/H/A/P/E/S/ (feat. WXYZebra ) 1. Stereolab - Vodiak (2006) 2. School of Seven Bells - Face to Face on High Places (2008) 3. [...]
Lots of new goings-on over at Danish DIY label collective BSBTA: http://www.bsbta.com/ New releases from Funny Art Collective (ft. Bjørn Svin ) and Manipulator Alligator are out now on sub-sublabel d'Oorhinge Mandarine and there's more stuff on the way from Workaholics on Holiday! and the newly-formed BSBTA Heritage project.
Cllct.com Artists : 21 Love Songs: A Tribute to The Magnetic Fields (March 10th, 2008) I have decided that when listening to a tribute album it is better to not know a great deal about the source material. Personally, (I am ashamed to admit) I have never given a good listen to The Magnetic Fields, so when I picked up a handmade, photocopied, cd-r version of cllct.com's tribute I knew more about the artists on the disc (i.e. Tinyfolk, James Eric, redbear., Secret Owl Society, Porches) then I did about Magnetic Fields.

Oh sweet merciful Christ and--oh wait, this is actually a really good compilation. Can you believe it? We couldn't at first, seeing as how covers most times make us cringe, but we've seen the light. Stephen Merritt would be so proud of all of the artists who've gone ahead and paid tribute to him in this endearing, outright astounding mixtape. Tell me you couldn't fall in love with this project and we'd call you a liar. Tracklist: 01 Monica y Carlos - [...]
" The bands, when you think honestly about it, are the ones that ever really mattered. It may not be Depeche Mode, but the bands the bands you loved in high school you will love forever " and convincing the girls to fall for him over their lyrics, Matthew Baringer of Asaurus Records (formerly home to a favourite here, Pants Yell!), has created a little project to rekindle the love of old favourites (previously done with The Smashing Pumpkins, titled " The Hiss That We Have Missed: Lo-Fi Vs. Smashing Pumpkins "), with the latest instalment on Depeche Mode, taking [...]
