Mount Eerie - I Whale Single
2008-04-07 06:35:00 Mount Eerie represents the latest evolution of Phil Elverum's musical vision. Formerly known as The Microphones, Phil changed his project's name to Mount Eerie while maintaining his subtle, lo-fi, and lyrically dense fuzz-folk aesthetic.Elverum explained this change in an 2003 interview with Discoder, asserting that "Mount Eerie is a new project. The Microphones was completed, or at least at a good stopping point. I did it because I am ready for new things. I am new."D/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?yiilej 3owtv More About: Whale , Single , Mount
The Microphones - X-Ray Means Woman
2008-04-04 21:41:00 The Microphones is the name of a project that Anacortes, WA's Phil Elverum has headed since the late 90s. Its sound is best described as lo-fi "fuzz folk," ranging from drum-crashing, bass-thrashing sonic freakouts, strummy classical guitar love songs, angelic vocal choirs, and almost-whispered vocals over harmoniums and bell kits. In 2004, Elverum abandoned the "Microphones" name to begin recording as Mount Eerie.D/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?o5xey ibde0y More About: Woman

Relatively Clean Rivers - S/T
2008-03-28 22:45:00 Vernon Joynson's Fuzz Acid & Flowers:Former Beat Of The Earth leader Phil Pearlman assembled this band in the early seventies and eventually recorded this magnificent rural rock album in 1975. The Relatively Clean Rivers album stands with the very best albums of the era, possessing a purely American sound and walking confidently past the shadow of its previous incarnation. Amazingly well produced for a private pressing, it is the very antithesis of his earlier releases that could be classified as garage (at a stretch, perhaps - they are not without a certain tangible sophistication). No measurable degree of time or expense was spared in the creation of the Relatively Clean Rivers album, which took over a year to assemble and is the most flawless snapshot of the California seventies underground scene you will ever hear.D/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?0lv9ew vqumn

Rings - Black Habit
2008-03-23 16:14:00 Rings is Nina Mehta, Abby Portner and Kate Rosko, three women who live and play in New York City. The three of us came together when Abby joined in June of 2006, after Nina and Kate and former member Melissa Livaudais released an album and seven inch under the name First Nation. The three of us started writing new material, and continued to play under the name First Nation, until we recorded our album in Rove Studios in Kentucky with Kristin Anna Valtysdottir aka Kria Brekken (formerly of the band Mum). The record was going to be called Rings, but, then we decided that 'Rings' described us as a band more than First Nation. We all sing a lot, play drums, guitars and keyboards in circular patchworked tranced feminist compositions. We're inspired by lots of different music, like folk, hip hop and r&b, and traditional and pop music from our own city and farther lands. Rings is a name for our circular compositions, the bonds between us, our decision-making processes, and the circular ... More About: Black , Rings , Habit

Kool Keith - Lost Masters
2008-03-19 18:49:00 An original member of New York's new-school pioneers the Ultramagnetic MC's, "Kool " Keith Thornton is best known as a solo rapper. His signature style is stream-of-consciousness lyrical flow and complex vocals, two skills that earn him a perennial nod from the underground hip-hop community. The average Kool Keith album is peppered with bizarre, disjointed, even delusional or disassociated themes, concepts, and references. Nearly all of his albums incorporate a satirical dislike for more commercialized strains of hip-hop, as well as major record labelsThe Lost Masters D/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?4xzd uzud1imLost Masters Vol. 2D/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?czxw3laxnm w
Dr. Octagon - Dr. Octagonecologyst
2008-03-19 17:10:00 Dr. Octagon is but one of many of Kool Keith's alter egos. Under the Dr. Octagon moniker, his initial release was 1996's Dr. Octagonecologyst, on which he collaborated with Dan the Automator Nakamura and DJ QBert. After the moniker was killed off in favour of Dr. Dooom, it was widely believed that it wouldn't be used again, until the release of 2006's The Return of Dr. Octagon.The original album acheived critical acclaim and was a springboard for Dan the Automator's young career, but Dan the Automator and Keith have been reported to have had a falling out. Keith drew from an entirely different group of collaborators for The Return including One Watt Sun, DJ Dexter, formerly of The Avalanches, and New York MC Princess Superstar.Prior to release, a digital comic accompanied by remixes of material off the new album was released. The digital comic contains mp3s in each of its eight weekly installments, remixed by Alines, Kid Loco, Cassettes Won't Listen, DJ Ese and catchdubs among...
Phosphorescent - Pride
2008-03-18 17:33:00 Also known as Mathew Houck, Phosphorescent is what a lonesome Georgian summer would sound like if there were morning doves all covered in grit, flittering about, the dust flying from their wings as they reveled in the sunlight. Blissful, sad, and a little country, Mr. Houck's crackling voice invokes plenty of melancholic nostalgia.As an artist on Warm records, he released his first full-length in 2003, A Hundred Times or More, to much applause and teary-eyed folk. A year later came The Weight of Flight, also on Warm.To D/L the Phosphorescent Discography go to Cuadro LetárgicoD/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?f x6dyvzbjeg More About: Pride

Wildbirds & Peacedrums - Heartcore
2008-03-14 17:41:00 Wildbirds & Peacedrums are one of those rare resounding instant keepers. This is truly a non-cliché fresh bold and dexterous power in a way that does waves along our spines. We are proud and honored to work with this extraordinary band. Lacking a better comparison, Wildbirds & Peacedrums are as if Laurie Anderson was a great sexy sweaty polar bear or a cavewoman: esque raw & hairy but gentle and warm fist. From the stone age. Sounds interesting? It is! The duo, Wildbirds & Peacedrums, started in 2005 and has since then spread their fantastic and special music from the stage and through a couple of self-produced CD-R’s. Mariam Wallentin and Andreas Werliin build their music on vocals and drums and then expand and develop it with some help from electronic devices and other instruments such as the sitar and the glockenspiel. A perfect mix of spiritual pop, free-blues and raw soul music makes this band one of the most interesting in Sweden todayD/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?migjni hyi2z

Lucky Dragons - Dark Falcon
2008-03-06 21:35:00 ...formed in 1999. This is the band that never breaks up: The cut and paste digital derivative of musique concrete, melodic memory, splintery soft glitches, anxious dada, dirty indie, beautytronics. Lucky dragons is Luke Fischbeck, who edits it like a magazine to make sure it stays going. There are so many others to share the light, though: singing, drawing, dancing, touching, plucking and spinning or sewing with sound files or just listening really well. We are a diy sound branding and sound breaking collective. Records are densely knit collages of ecstatic language, folk melodies, and AM radio rave ups. Live shows are convulsive celebrations of sounds from hard drives and gentle skin contact. Our aesthetic is handmade. Contributing members currently live in Providence RI, Philadelphia PA, coastal Southern California and New York City.D/L:http://www.mediafire.com/?byizyj y1cem More About: Dark , Falcon , Dragons
