My student loan goes in on monday, so I might treat myself to some decent speakers as well
Thanks, Solar Bridge is amazing isn't it?
That Xela album is incredible; have you heard his last album, The Dead Sea? It's based on a story about a doomed sea voyage in which all the sailors end up being eaten by zombies or something.
It really is
I keep listening to it on my walk home from work, as it's exactly the right length, and it fits perfectly for night-time walks.
I haven't heard a note of xela before, but I'd been recommended him by a couple of people. Plus it was pretty cheap on boomkat! I'm looking forward to that.
Ah I hope you enjoy it!
If you do, The Dead Sea is generally 3.95 in the Boomkat sales. It's fairly different to In Bocca but well worth getting.
I quite like the way the Emeralds record is so short...you don't get many drone records which exhibit that level of self-restraint.
On Thursday I'm going to spend my £15 HMV voucher.
On the first series of 'Outnumbered'. Which is not music.
i got quite a lot to spend on amazon and play
because that's all I asked for from my extended familly
I got:
Quiet City - Pan American
The pyschic nature of being - Lichens
Tago Mago - Can
Women - Women
Lost Wisdom - Mt. Eerie
Doomsdayer's Holiday - Grails
Merriweather Post Pavillion - Animal Collective
Gauntlet - Kevin Drumm and Daniel Menche
As the Roots Undo - Circle takes the Square
Some of that stuff I already had on my ipod, but wanted physcial copies of the albums, because i love them so much
Grails + Can
Crap,
Grails + Can + Lichens = massive, massive win
