A new mix for you to hear today....
Meantime happy to say that the The Holiday Crowd Mini-LP "Over The Bluffs" is officially out now from both our good friends at Shelflife, and a Canadian label New Romantic, here's a clip for Pennies Found from the LP :)
Now, done to the nitty gritty of who and what's on today's mix -
Sci-Fi Caper from Fresno have 2 free download eps, "Skeleton Tracks" ( where "Bloom Like Roses" comes from ) and "In The Garage" which is a 'recorded practice session', ( no doubt in their garage ).
Model Railway Exhibition are a 3 piece from London and you can grab their "Jennifer's Brother" cassette/download ( out via Verulamium Records ) from their bandcamp ( only 2 pounds but worth more !! ).
Obedient Wives Club are from Singapore and had a 3" cdr out via Happy Teardrop Music ( 80 only, long sold out ) but the 4 songs from the ep and a bonus song are for sale on the band's Bandcamp.Bit of Dufflecoat related news - the Sunny Street/Kuraykin split is out out now - both sides brilliant songs, "Hungry Hippo's" being from there. There are recent releases from Astrolab & Watoo Watoo as well and I'm spreading the rumour here and now that We.The Pigs will be coming out on a future split, which is exciting news.
Burning Hearts will release their "Extinctions" album on Feb 1 ( yes next week !!! ) via the Finnish label Solina Records ( & eventually on Shelflife I believe ). Meantime "Burn Burn Burn" is a single from the album which you can pick up via the Finnish iTunes ( if you're allowed from your country ).
The Sundae release on Little Treasure hasn't surfaced yet ( any day now for sure ) in the meantime a preview track from the ep is on Sundae's Soundcloud. ( as well as the great Nixon cover I'm playing on today's mix ).
Strawberry Whiplash's "Stop Look & Listen" 7- inch ep on Matinee is a bit of a ( very juicy ) taster from their upcoming debut album 'Hits In The Car" - as they say in the classics 'can't wait for that one".Also today we hear a few songs from the SEA Indie scene - Serenaide from their 2004 "The Other End Of The Receiver" album on Fruit Records ( which I think has folded ), Talkless who are from Thailand & Taman Kota from Indonesia from an upcoming release on Shiny Happy Records, who will also release the Burrrn track we're playing today soon ( they are from Japan ) on an ep called "Artistic Destruction & Construction".
The SEA Indie blog has also put out a new collaborative Filipino comp with Pop Scene Manila, another great collection of Filipino pop, which you can grab here. Always BUY music and support bands and labels :)
