\nGONZALES feat FEIST<\/strong>\u00a0[CANADA]
\nlovertits\u00a0mp3<\/a>
\ni played a track today (‘mushaboom’) from leslie\u00a0feist<\/strong>‘s album, ‘let it die’ – the album was co-produced by\u00a0gonzales<\/strong>, which seems a little uncharacteristic. we’re talking alt.folk from the man who spent a great deal of the last few years hanging around with\u00a0peaches<\/strong>… and strangely this mp3 (taken from\u00a0gonzales’<\/strong>\u00a0‘z’ album) is also one that was featured on\u00a0peaches’<\/strong>\u00a0debut album, here rendered in a very different version by\u00a0feist<\/strong>. [site<\/a>]
\nADEM<\/strong>\u00a0[ENGLAND]
\neverything you need<\/strong>\u00a0mp3<\/a>
\nsome acoustica for you (which makes a diverting change from the predominantly electro-focus of the blog…) – courtesy of the bass player from the group\u00a0fridge<\/strong>. if you haven’t heard of\u00a0fridge<\/strong>, then you’ll have certainly have heard of\u00a0four tet<\/strong>\u00a0aka keiren hebden, also a founding member of\u00a0fridge<\/strong>. however,\u00a0adem<\/strong>\u00a0departs from the experimentation of\u00a0fridge<\/strong>\u00a0to go for a straight forward folk approach, with some beautiful results. the above mp3 is taken from\u00a0adem<\/strong>‘s recent debut album ‘homesongs’. the track from today’s show ‘let me give you a reason’ is taken from the promo of the single ‘ringing in my ear’, which according to the\u00a0domino web site<\/a>\u00a0is not included in the commercial release.
\nBANG GANG\u00a0<\/strong>[ICELAND]
\ninside (acoustic demo version)\u00a0<\/strong>mp3<\/a>
\n<\/strong>a return visit to fat planet for these guys, originally featured back in june. played a more rockin’ track today than this acoustic track, and strangely from a promo album of ‘pop and rock made in france’ – so i can only assume they’re de-camped from the freezing cold to the land of fine wine and great pastries. smart move. [site<\/a>]
\nKIIIIII!<\/strong>\u00a0[JAPAN] (pictured)
\nbrown girl in the ring<\/strong>\u00a0mp3<\/a>
\ngot to make sure i’ve got the right amount of exclamation marks on there… and how do we pronounce the name of the band? no idea. all i can tell you is that appear to be two very mad girls from japan making that insane blend of experimental psychedlic pop-rock that japan does so well. this is a cover of a song that i also remember be covered by the glitter-tastic\u00a0boney m<\/strong>\u00a0back in the 70s and it clocks in at just under two minutes – and half of that is a drum solo. these girls are touched by genius.
\nMUI<\/strong>\u00a0[ITALY]
\nt-10<\/strong>\u00a0mp3
\n<\/a>finally today, i’ve got to give a huge vote of support to the outstanding ‘starving but happy’ site, chiefly for the amazing compilation from keplar records that’s free to download from\u00a0their site<\/a>. the album consists of top quality downtempo electronica and post-rock from germany, italy, hungary (of all places!) and more. i strongly recommend you take time out to own this free compilation, even if you’re not on broadband \ud83d\ude42 for more info on all the artists on the compilaiton, check out the\u00a0keplar site<\/a>. the above track from the italians\u00a0mui<\/strong>\u00a0is a beautiful fresh cut of both post-rock\u00a0and<\/em>\u00a0electronica – all in one bite. and by god it tastes good…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
