10KLF Showcases – Family Groove Company
It’s about time I took a second to share some of 10KLF’s music with you rather than just babbling about it and telling you where to get it. I decided – like Summer Camp – to start off with some Family Groove Company, seein’ as they’re one of my favorites and all. Sadly John and…

Burning Oak Podcast #01 – 10KLF Preview
Here it is, Burning Oak’s first podcast. I decided a podcast would be a great way to share tunes from the bands I intend to check out at 10,000 Lakes Festival next weekend, so this first edition is basically an audible schedule for me on Thursday. That is, this is each band I will be…

Flaming Lips Live @ Stockholm
This BigOWorldwide release came with no fanfare or even description/review on the site, but the site has a great reputation in my eyes of quality recordings of good music, so I bookmarked it immediately when I saw it. I’ve only had a chance to listen to “The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song,” so leave a comment…

Happy 4th of July
Thought I’d put up a picture and a few tunes to celebrate today, the 4th of July, The United States’ Independence Day. I’ve found a few tunes that I think sum up today, and even one for the picture above. Everybody have a great day off, grill some food, drink some beer, mess around with…

New Stuff – Dimanche À Bamako
Artist: Amadou & Mariam Album: Dimanche À Bamako Label: Nonesuch Records Country of Origin: Mali Year: 2004 I’ve been loving this release from the second I heard the track “Sénégal Fast Food.” It took me a listen or two to really get into the whole thing (it’s a little harder when it’s in French), but…

New Stuff: Gravity Won’t Get You High
Artist: The Grates Album: Gravity Won’t Get You High Label: Dew Process Recordings Year: 2006 From: Australia So this one didn’t impress me at first. It sounded alright, but it really wasn’t my style, or so I thought. After a good week of letting it sink in though, I realized I was slightly perplexed by…
