Diving With Andy - Sugar Sugar .. anybody know anything about these cats, everything i find on them is in french?! no hablo french :( Sergeant - K OK Also really digging the Fanfarlo record.. Luna kills it, def one of my fav records of the year
blahscience - I can speak french, if you pass me on a link to an article you're curious about I'll gladly translate for you. That song is awesome by the way, I went to listen to straight away thinking it could be an Archie's cover and turned out it wasn't but it didn't dissapoint me a bit.
The XX - Basic Space - beautiful, soothing sounds from South London's newest creation
Maxwell D - Blackberry Hype - entirely hilarious and addictive
Micachu - Golden Phone - still, after months, I can't take this off repeat
Fleetwood Mac - Everywhere - it makes summer seems bright
yeah me too, there's some really nice eerie qualities I wasn't expecting. I'm glad they went down that route. Did you know Romy has a side project with DJ Biffstruck, the beats guy in The XX? (it's kinda dead now, but there's some beautiful stuff) called O Lousy Tired Gal? There's a myspace page with a few tracks on still I think.. Oliver had a short lived solo page with some soul tracks on too..I'll see if I can dig them out.
My love of Kurt Vonnegut has only been increased by Ice-9 Ballads, the new soundtrack to Cat's Cradle he recorded in 1997 with Dave Soldier. My favorite track is "Nice, Nice, Very Nice". You can grab 2 other mp3s from it here.
