The Drift - "Horizon" The Drift release Blue Hour on October 4, and will be touring Europe supporting Explosions in the Sky in November.

It's been days since I last heard from Jefre Cantu. After keeping in regular contact over a span of two months, here I was on perhaps my final morning in San Francisco and I still hadn't received any word from him regarding a potential interview. I was beginning to prepare myself for the harsh reality [...]

Da quel capolavoro che resta From Bone To Satellite MP3 Tarentel - When We Almost Killed Ourselves WebSite : Tarentel
In celebration of the upcoming 200th Sunday Mix Tape, I've decided to spend a few days this week taking a leisurely stroll down memory lane. My memory's lane. I've compiled 199 official Sunday Mix Tapes as well as a few compilations that arrived on a Monday or other random day. It's time to take a look back and examine why this feature has become such a huge success. Since I can't post 200 MP3s this week, I'm going to list what is - in my opinion - the standout track from each installment of the series. About half [...]
Ace is the "wild guy in the group" who likes doing mad trickz on his bike, while "AZN Thunda" AKA Brett has a "hard exterior but a soft inside, just like mochi (being from Asia of course)". This is the bio provided of Teengirl Fantasy – actually consisting of Oberlin College students Nick Weiss and [...]
Some things bear worth repeating. Feu Thérèse is one of them, as I feel exposing their music right now would be dramatically more effective than it was in 2007, when I found myself gushing over their debut, Ça Va Cogner. They had apparently split that same year, but their permanent elusiveness had prevented anyone from [...]
Well, I was going to see Vetiver at Spaceland until I realized that my last paycheck was hampered by my having taken days off, and I have no money until an advertising check arrives sometime this coming week. What will I do until then? Well, not much. Today I went to work and had enough money to eat one yogurt and one bagel. Dinner was a box of Crispix I've kept around the house for emergency hunger situations for about the past year. Those year-old Crispix sure don't taste very good anymore. So, what are my [...]
Boxharp From: North Carolina, United States Boxharp are an ambient experimental pop duo North Carolina formed by Scott Solter (producer/engineer for the likes of Spoon, The Mountain Goats and St. Vincent) and Wendy Allen (The Court & Spark, Tarentel and The Ballustrade Ensemble) who David Bowie has named as one of his favourite current artists. The duo's new single 'The Green' is about [...]
Danny Paul Grody, ossia fondatore dei sempre lodati Tarentel e mente delle evanescenze jazz marchiate Drift. Qui, per la prima volta, in veste solista, scegliendo intrecci di chitarra con retaggi Aerial M. "Fountain", questo il titolo dell'album, scorre fra rimandi post e lontani echi folk, bilanciando atmosfere acustiche ed elettriche intrise di una sottile malinconia svagata. [...]

Hidden Shoal Recordings is proud to announce the signing of American ambient experimental pop duo Boxharp to its roster of artists. For American duo Boxharp, inspiration comes from 78s of Burl Ives and John Jacob Niles' children''s songs played on a Fisher Price record player, and Zoviet France albums encased in burlap and tinfoil. Field recordings, layered harmonies, found objects, obsolete hand-me-down machines - all these things brought producer Scott Solter and singer Wendy Allen together. In their music, the disparate parts lead down diverse paths, rich in atmosphere and emotional resonance. Boxharp is [...]

The remaining systems within ten light years are the binary red dwarf system Luyten 726-8 (8.7 light years) and the solitary red dwarf Ross 154 (9.7 light years). Our closest solitary sun-like star is Tau Ceti, which lies 11.9 light years away. It has roughly 80 percent the Sun's mass, but only 60 percent its luminosity. The closest known extrasolar planet to the Sun lies around the star Epsilon Eridani, a star slightly dimmer and redder than the Sun, which lies 10.5 light years away. Its one confirmed planet, Epsilon Eridani b, is roughly 1.5 times Jupiter's mass and orbits [...]

When there are thirty minutes left in your work day, and the only thought on your mind is whiskey, it's nice to know sometimes that your manager is having the same thoughts. What's even nicer is when he allows you to leave work early, under the pretense that you walk to the adjacent liquor store to shop for new bottles of whiskey. I picked up a bottle of Elmer T. Lee's Kentucky Straight Bourbon Whiskey, which I will be sampling in a few minutes as I watch MTV's The State on my newly acquired - but long ago [...]
I hope this week is better than last week. For fuck's sake, could something possibly go right, for a change? Anything? Anyone? Bah. No one's listening. What's more, I thought today was the 21st, and had a mix tape prepared to mark the occasion, but later found out that's not until next week. Good God, man. I need some fucking relaxation. RULES for uninitiated noobs : With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a weekly Mix Tape to be deposited on your iPods or Zunes or Kingklangs or whatever the industry is currently pushing [...]
Trevor Montgomery si è fatto conoscere grazie ai Tarentel, che qualcosa, nel passato recente, avranno pure sbagliato, ma il molto di buono fatto in precedenza è, almeno qui, ancora decisamente apprezzato (gli scontati, per bellezza, "From Bone To Satellite" e "The Order of Things"). Trevor fa nascere il progetto Lazarus nel 2001, per desiderio di libertà [...]
