Your Creepy Uncle Skeleton

Endlessly satisfying, fuzzy feel-good pop delivered from some idyllic scene through your grandfather's broken tube radio. The satisfaction keeps coming from this dirty music box with divers shifts, meanderings, soothing snippets of sound and sudden U-turns to keep you on your toes there Champ.....thanks to Yewknee.com for the tip.

Newfangled "Catchpenny" from Burro Music























Quaint
adj. quaint·er, quaint·est
1. Charmingly odd, especially in an old-fashioned way.

Well there is something quaint about the above picture. A cozy flat with drainage pipes creeping down the brick like stealthy, entwined elephant trunks. For more of the selfsame charm I give you the revised little ditty "Catchpenny" from my forthcoming EP, "Hollow to Holy".

Ochre's "Like Dust of the Balance"

Expect a full write-up very soon, but to state it simply, this is full on beautiful, otherworldly and atmospheric music with pristine arrangements of organic instrumentation and exacting, synthetic rhythms.

Listen for the intricacies of the drums on "Circadies" or the enchanting minor-key melody of the plucked instruments on "Napolese".

Listen below and purchase Ochre's albums here.

The Terrible Twos


Birthed from the depths of a giant, pulsating, semi-viscous, indefatigable mother brain with nerve centers spanning two continents, I give you "The Terrible Twos", truly the brainchild of those behind the Electro Freaks.

Even at this tender age (just 2 years old), the Freaks have managed a behemoth compilation spanning 33 tracks of original electronic output from around God's Green Earth. Enjoy responsibly.

Royksopp's Latest Diversions

Here you have Royksopp's recent release, "Senior". Not to be a simpleton or to degrade the work in any way- but this is real good, much better than it's been before, though not always better than it's ever been, speaking of the A.M. (sometimes rhymes are fine and no, I'm not clever). Listen and purchase below:
