Head is alive. Hence the sound of music.Archive for pay attention
No vices except the major ones. Honourable Mentions I
Since people might demand a recount

Voxtrot EP (myspace) - spot the twee pop! just can’t shake them off
Camille - Le Fil (dir) - an album with a concept that goes rampant. she nouvelle vague’d it too, but i prefer her solo
Amy Winehouse - Back To Black (hah, myspace)
This is so cliche.
Eglantine Gouzy - Boa Master (zip) (site) - after listening to Boa, you’ll get it. special thanks to the cookshop
toe - New Sentimentality EP (zip) (myspace)
Wax Tailor - Tales Of Forgotten Melodies (Que Sera, via) - so, french people can be cool
OOIOO - Taiga (JP) (myspace) (zip) (UMO, via ) - ladies and gentleman, we have rhythm!
Hisato Higuchi - Dialogue (JP) I should have actually put this in the main list. Pity I forgot - you really need to hear the electric guitar in the hands of a former puppeteer. (site) (Manazashi No Saki E/眼差しのさきえ mp3) (Himitsu/秘密/Secret mp3) - damn, i don’t know precisely what manazashi no saki e means.
I hope y’all have made some good discoveries today.
Note: Take a shower, clear your head, have a green tea, let the music reel ya in. Whatever you like, you can find here or here to buy. Oh and happy something something. For link removal, mail me.
things that go bang in the middle of the night
I haven’t done unsigned goodness in a while, heck, I ain’t done nothing much in a while. I’ve been planning my trip (mainly getting to Chopin’s house and what to drink in Poland) not that you care much, but I have to get my passport tomorrow after compromising with the lady at the desk (it was due the 10th of July I think) and leave on Tuesday bright and early, but shit I can’t be fully happy until I have that bloody piece of binded plastic and paper between my evil toes (natch!) or fingers.
MySpace has been leaving me terribly afflicted lately, no goodness in the indie rock department that I could find. I did a couple of poorly-planned searches and left empty-eared or angry at the staple mediocrity.
Gav however is way better at discovering very good under-10 000 views pages of the electronic variety.
Before you can say panties-in-a-twist, something of note showed up. CC & the Spades. With virtually under 10 results for the band name on Google, I’d say we’re safe if we were to bring up the topic of good lesser-known bands with hipster acquaintances.
Never you mind that, this is quality pop-punk with an ever-flowing instrumentation, and vocals tailored to fit the whole aural scene. The music doesn’t go upwards or down (based on the two songs I instantly fell in love with on their myspace) but carries itself lazily along, summer-turns-to-autumn-style with wind blowing through the cracks of the deserted chalet the band’s practicing in. That’s what the music inspired me to write, and lo and behold, the westerly winds were blowing in my direction giving me a hairstyle that made others cry with envy goes CC’s wonderlandish-bio entry. If you’re into PJ Harvey you’ll be all over CC’s smashing low-rider vocal qualities.
I don’t know why, I uploaded this song for you..
CC and The Spades - 8 Hours Of Little D mp3
It’s available for download on CC and the Spades’ myspace however along with another fine cut.

Sometimes I think art is doomed to perish.
Then I discover Ramona. Post about him later on.
Oh but this Marco Chiandetti dude is a nice find. The first two snapshots are from his video, Silence is the distance between two sounds.
