ein paar aktualitäten von chemikal underground , einem label, das heuer immerhin seinen 15. geburtstag feiert, mit ihnen hatten sie im jungen 2010 ein erstes higlight, die alten aereogramme unter neuer bezeichnung, tourdaten siehe unten: the unwinding hours - knut gleich, nämlich am ersten des monats märz wird ihr neues album "the law of large numbers" erscheinen, und damit die rückkehr der ex-delgado dame zu chemikal feiern: emma pollock - hug the harbour [...]

Last night, South China played a show at The Greenhouse, on J street. Right off the bat, let me say, it was a fantastic show. I was really needing some live music, and South China really hit the spot. The first word that comes to mind to describe them is mellow. Their music isn't always sad, but it is always very mellow.

South China are Jeremy and Jerusha Robinson, a couple from Biddeford, [...]

There are quite a few great albums on the label - Brown Bird, Chriss Sutherland, South China and more. While most bands on the label are considered "indie" and even "folk" they range [...]
Hello Slowcousticals, I bring you a weekend playlist because I don't have a feature post (let's just be honest here). There isn't even a compromise though because there is some really great music included. If you are a regular reader or are a member of the Last.fm group, you know I am a bit of a playlist fiend. So enough with the blather and let's get to your weekend soundtrack! Slowcoustic Saturday Playlist (November Edition) ~ Wonder Stranger [...]
