Aidan Moffat has always been good value, as have Slow Club. Chuck in Malcom Middleton and you've got something. Something that we're writing about. In short, Middleton and Moffat - formerly of Arab Strap - got together to record a cover of a new Slow Club track, taken from their forthcoming record, Paradise.»
As you may or may not know, Four Tet will release his own Fabriclive album, number 59, later in the year. As Pitchfork reports, one of the tracks from it has been made available to stream via SoundCloud. It's a new mix from Mr Hebden which will be release»
A one-off show. In London. Capital City.»
New tour dates, pal.»
I can't believe it was actually this year that Toro Y Moi's new record, Beneath The Pine, came out. It seems like much longer. I guess it was in February. Either way, there's a new video for a track from it, this time for 'How I Know', which features some»
Win a great prize, to be honest.»
We at DiS love Aidan Moffat. And that Bill Wells ain't a bad fella, either. We also absolutely bloody loved their album together, scoring it a massive 9/10. Deservedly so. Read our review here. Anyway, that's why we're quite delighted to show you their new video, for Cages. It's new, like we said, and you can see it here...»
This week's Spotifriday playlist featuring tracks from Vivian Girls, DOOM, Ringo Deathstarr, Mogwai, Ane Brun and then some. Click here to listen to it. 1. Vivian Girls - 'Take It As It Comes' Now, let it be said that this obviously isn't one of Vivia»
The great thing about Vivian Girls is their uncomplicated nature, and also the fact that they are very good at what they do, as demonstrated on their most recent full-length record, Share The Joy, which we reviewed here. We said it doesn't profess to be a»
Stephen Malkmus & The Jicks release a new record later this year, on August 22 through Domino. It is called Mirror Traffic. Now there's a UK tour to support it in November. I mean, you could call it a tour, but it's not very long. Anyway, this is all you're going to get, I presume, so be thankful.»
New Wild Beasts video, would you believe.»
Slottsfjell is situated in Tønsberg, a medium-sized town on the Oslofjord. As a festival it is partly comparable and partly incomparable to anything in the UK, but on the whole more leaning towards incomparable. A festival is about music, but what makes a festival is often not the greatness of the line-up or performances alone. People and atmosphere are a huge part and you'll be hard-pushed to find a better bunch of people to party with than the Norwegians.»
New bands for festival funtimes.»
The Grammy-award winning and multi-million selling soundtrack to O Brother, Where Are Thou? is to get a tenth anniversary re-issue and re-release, with original producer T-Bone Burnett involved in all aspects of it. Good news. It will contain the original»
Earlier this week we ran a video of the new Joan As Police Woman single, for 'Chemmie'. You can watch it here. It was something we quite enjoyed. We've now got some more audiovisual JAPW-related content for you, and this time it's her speaking about Joan »
It seems like it's been a while since the latest acts were announced for any of the December ATP festivals. In fairness, the organisers have probably been quite busy enough with all the I'll Be Your Mirror stuff going on. Anyway, the newest additions for »
We really had an awfully long time to wait for the man now known as DOOM to get his bottom over to the UK to perform, but just lately he's making habit of it. It has just been announced that he'll follow his performance at ATP's I'll Be Your Mirror with a»
First taste of the new album.»
The Bronx have been pretty successful in their mariachi guise as Mariachi El Bronx and released their debut album under that guise a couple of years ago. They are now almost ready to release the second one, now, entitled Mariachi El Bronx (II), which will see the light of day through Wichita Recordings on September 5.»
Last week Feist posted a video clip on her website which was massively cryptic at best. Naturally, we all thought there'd be an announcement of some kind in the coming days but we didn't know when or what. We thought an album and that is what it turns out to be, as Pitchfork reports.»
Polyvinyl Records will release a compilation tribute to Japan and the earthquake and tsunami victims from earlier in the year. The compilation is entitled 3.3.11 and will be released physically on September 26 but is available now, digitally from here. It»

AT LAST.»
ATP's I'll Be Your Mirror event takes place this weekend at London's Alexandra Palace and the two-day line-up is fairly spectacular. It includes PJ Harvey, Grinderman, Swans, DOOM, Company Flow, Godspeed and a ton more. As IBYM works out as the b-side to the main, full-on festival-type ATP events, we've got a selection of fabourite b-sides from some artists playing the festival. There's also as many handily embedded YouTube clips of the b-sides in question as we could find.»

It's official.»
A few days ago Girls announced a UK and European tour which is kind-of to coincide with the release of their new record, Father, Son, Holy Ghost, which comes out on September 12. Now they've offered up a free mp3 download of a track from that record, enti»
