some music from around the blogs. i like blogs.

silence is a rhythm too has a neat little mix from kelpe, a nice mix of ambient and textured beat type stuff, the kind of thing thats nice to put on for a sunday afternoon when you are sitting in the backyard having a cup of tea. bumps, tape, gonzales. incidentally these will be the names of my first three children.

a mix from geologist of the animal collective. some cool stuff. mainly notable for the fact that it starts with “steppin out” in its entirety and then goes into a very cheap and nasty - but effective - re-edit of a phil collins song that is so cool i’d never even noticed before. “i’m not moving” its called. i tracked it down (the re-edit) here at a blog specialising in the “long seventies” called art decade - there you’ll also find the original phil collins track. just don’t tell phil. i’m guessing he is not down with the sharing of the files.

speaking of blog aggregators - rich mcf at rose quartz is doing a particularly good job at the moment of picking out the wheat from the chaff, so to speak, vis a vis blog music… check out this playlist for example. consider yourself shouted out to, you vivacious kiwi.

aside from that - and heaps of other things - the new daedelus record continues to be awesome. and i’ve got the new cassetteboy on pre-order. woooo…
