Getting us back to spoken wit and guitar banging for a bit of a beat, here’s Stuart James. This is quite long overdue, and I have some other myspacians for you to check out, so come back, and come back often. Well maybe not that often.
Standout track: City On A Roll remix (mp3)

I’ve tweaked the feedburner feed for eashfa, so it now should include mp3s I post delivered directly to your RSS reader. Eashfa feed w/mp3s, soon enough
Whatever’s going on in the UK, it’s all very thrilling. There’s a crop of talented people that are bending genres, giving melody and story-telling a new lease of life and while some are more indie than others, I can’t ignore the pop!
The Bishops really are the Bishops – a set of brothers, that is, Mike and Pete Bishop, and a lad called Chris McConville, drumming an eager drum, who they met in a local bar. Since they’re so catchy in this first phase of listening, and they sound like the 60’s-style pop Yang to The Pipettes’ Yin, I’m trying to decipher if they’re a one-trick pony, but I’ll have to wait until October to hear out their LP for that. If you like The Kooks, you’re going to like this too.

elsewhere: The Hype Machine
I rarely champion bands here more than once or twice, which just means there’s so much music – or only so much music you’ll listen to time and again; (sort of) fact: people only listen to around 23% of the songs on their iPods habitually.
Mumm-Ra, as of now, are among the 23% of my listening habits.
Sounds menacing doesn’t it.
I’m out until the 12th or the 13th, depending when or if I choose to come back from Open’er. But before I go, here’s some of my favourite music to smoke, eat, shower, walk, imagine driving, drink a nice bevvie to, this darkening side of 2006.
Love Is All – Make Out Fall Out Make Up mp3
Nouvelle Vague – Ever Fallen In Love mp3
Larrikin Love – Downing St. Kindling mp3 (6 Music – BBC Session)
The Kooks – She Moves In Her Own Way mp3
Conrad Newholmes – Noonday night mp3
Beirut – Rhineland (Heartland) mp3
The Radio Dept. – Why Won’t You Talk About It mp3 (via Labrador)
Sunset Rubdown – A Day In The Graveyard mp3
Herbert – Something Isn’t Right mp3
and a remix – Wolfmother – Woman (MSTRKRFT remix) m4a
Sigur Ros you’ll just have to buy. Or take a look here.
Right, now go and check out some of my fave blogs on the Further music page. Although some of them might be on hiatus too, they’re all worth a try, especially bigstereo. My main inspiration, although it might not look it.
Oh and wolf! Don’t let’s be snarky.
