Two new videos from The Parcels

Feb 4, 2010, 9:04pm Shelflife Records
The Parcels & Pecan Sandies' TV appearance on Haikai (Japan).
AJ who was in The Parcels recently digitized these two videos and I thought I would help spread the word. The Haikai TV show was recorded by our good friend Kenji Sekioka for Japanese TV. Shelflife had a segment as well. I need to post that at some point. Enjoy!

Creation Records reissues

Feb 4, 2010, 7:25pm Shelflife Records
Creation Records reissues I must admit I have a pretty decent obsession going on with the Edition 59 Creation reissues. I have most (if not all) of these tracks on cd already (not to mention all the other formats), but there's something special about seeing them as 33 cds that I can't resist. The Vollwert-Records digipak reissue of "Girl Who Runs The Beat Hotel" is absolutely gorgeous (and I don't actually own it on cd). Only 99 copies of that one. Looking forward to the Revolving Paint Dream stuff coming down the pike! [...]

Thieves Like Us - Never Known Love

Jan 28, 2010, 9:42am Shelflife Records
NeverKnownLovehiquality.mp4
Thieves Like Us debut a new song and video from their upcoming album "Again and Again". Fire wins out over my self doubt. Her blue sea was seeking me. Broken dreams were breaking me. Swam into the deep blue sea. Days were heavy with despair. Broken dreams were breaking me. Cherubs pushed for more and more. Painted hearts on my front door. Burnt my file and I was free. Swam into the deep blue sea. Never went back home again. Yesterday it fades away. Fire wins out over my self doubt. Her blue [...]

Korallreven - Loved-Up 7″

Jan 4, 2010, 8:22pm Shelflife Records
Korallreven - Loved-Up 7″ Korallreven's "Loved-Up" made my top 20 songs of 2009 and when I heard Fastcut Records in Japan were releasing a 73 of it, I thought I would offer up some copies in the Shelflife shop (while still expensive they're probably $5 or so cheaper than if you ordered direct from Japan - Japanese 73s have always been pricy... I guess they don't like to lose money on them - ha). Anyway, Korallreven is a project featuring Marcus Joons and Johan Duncansson (from the Radio Dept.) - and I think Daniel is part of [...]

Podcast #3 - Top 20 songs of 2009 (by Ed)

Dec 22, 2009, 9:04pm Shelflife Records
Podcast #3 - Top 20 songs of 2009 (by Ed) I finally settled on my top 10 list of 2009, so I thought I'd get this podcast done today (it's been exactly a year since our last one, so the timing couldn't be any more perfect - ha). You'll notice in the end Seeland beat out Sally Shapiro. "My Guilty Pleasure" just didn't have the lasting power I thought it would, especially compared to how amazing that Cloetta Paris cd was last year. So Seeland takes the #1 spot. "Tomorrow Today" is a perfect album and one I hope [...]

One year old…

Oct 29, 2009, 10:16am Shelflife Records
One year old… I just noticed that the Shelflife blog is a year old today! Wow, time sure flies when you're not posting regularly (ha!)... Anyway, I hope everyone has enjoyed our posts over the last year. It's been so much fun sharing the music we love. So let's start "year two" with a preview of a song that Laura and I have been working on called "Let's Go". It's another exclusive track that will appear on her "Songs From Dreams" release, which is very close to being completed (another month I'd say). Laura wants you [...]

Katsen - It Hertz!

Oct 27, 2009, 7:00am Shelflife Records
Katsen - It Hertz! Today we're pleased to announce the official North American release of "It Hertz!," the debut album from Brighton's synthpop heroes Katsen . From the moment I heard "Chequered Flag" and "Where Nobody Can Find Us," I was instantly in love. Katsen's sound reminds me at times of a casio-driven version of Section 25's "From The Hip" or the upbeat moments of Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark's "Architecture & Morality" re-recorded by Altered Images. And unlike many modern synthpop groups today, they don't hide behind their electronics. They [...]
