I have filled my weary brain with a cocktail of Pixies, Squarepusher, 65daysofstatic and Radiohead. I now need to soak it in coffee for a while and consider my Stereolab options.
I'm working on making radio for the AV festival coming up in a month and am wondering how much of this crazy noise is actually space. Honor who is one of the members of radioqualia, is now AVfestival director.
Listening to the Juno soundtrack. Got some tracks that are interesting and probably never listen to again, but it's a pretty decent collection all in all with stuff like The Kinks, The Velvets, Mot The Hoople, Sonic Youth, Cat Power. Not minding it at all...
Now: Double Seven by Upsetters Before: Dots and Loops by Stereolab Electric Heart Strike by Nullsleep The Shepherd's Dog by Iron & Wine A couple of tracks from Battles' Mirrored
right now, putting finishing touches and tweaks on my album before sending off to various vocalists around the world for them to play with and scream sing and garggle over.
soft shoulder is amazing, they are a local three piece guitar/drums/saxophone with an occasional clarinet. its more free jazz noise, broken up with short punk rock songs. they have another split seven inch that i think has better songs, but just rad people and rad music.
