I hate to admit that the last time I posted anything about Devendra Banhart was concerning his relationship with then-girlfriend Natalie Portman. I'm happy to change that, as Banhart has been offered the opportunity to remix Oasis. It's a bit random, but terrific nonetheless. Oasis gave him the liberty to remix any track from their 2008 LP Dig Out Your Soul , and here's the fantastic result. Oasis - (Get Off Your) High Horse Lady (Devendra Banhart Remix) [yousendit]

When Ian first mentioned the name Six Organs Of Admittance, we were shopping at Other Music with a kid he went to college with called Ben. He asked one of the clerks where they would file that band. Upon asking if I'd heard of "them", I immediately turned off any receptors that might glean a bit of information from Ian, and decided that the name was stupid and not worth my time. After all, it was probably some stupid electronic project. Organs? Fuck those. Sometime in the near future I heard Ben Chasny's music for the first time, [...]
