[Flashback] – Beck – “Sea Change”
The first in a series of looks back at great or underrated albums from 10 years ago. “Sea Change” doesn’t feel like a Beck album; it feels like a Beck Hansen album. It took us closer to the real man than ever before, and we’ll probably never get as close again.

[Listen] – New Album by The Sea Of Cortez – “Make It Sound”
Listen to “Make It Sound”, the new album by The Sea Of Cortez below. A little over a year ago this young band appeared on my radar who impressed me enough to write an Introduction piece about them. The five piece from LA at that time only had a couple of songs to their name but now, [...]
[Album Review/Listen] – Stephen Malkmus And The Jicks – “Mirror Traffic”
Buy the album on Amazon – Vinyl | CD With 90′s nostalgia becoming a legitimate phenomenon, we’d be hard-pressed to find anyone who doesn’t remember Pavement. Headed by Stephen Malkmus, Pavement gathered an enormous cult following in their day and are held by many to have been the best band of the nineties. [Ed: it's a shame that Silver [...]
[Introducing] – Mixel Pixel
You could be forgiven for expecting Mixel Pixel to be a chiptune outfit. Not quite. They call themselves glo-fi, which might have been appropriate when they started as a duo making cheap cassette recordings all the way back in 1995, though no one would have used the term then, but these days the home-studio recording [...]
[Introducing] – The Vliets
If you’re the sort of person who reads this blog regularly, you probably know where Radiohead got their name from; but can you tell where Dallas boys The Vliets (pronounced like “vleets”) got theirs? If this seems like a very obvious question to you, then congratulations: you officially have some serious musical chops. If not, I wouldn’t [...]
[Listen] – Beck – “Stormbringer” (John Martyn cover)
This post is a “QuickPick”. QuickPicks are my attempt at getting all of the music that’s sent to me that I like (or just music I like but have no words for because it’s so awesome), out into the dubya dots. Any time I get sent music that I like I “star” it in Gmail [...]

[Introducing] – Sinthesis
It’s rare that shared Facebook ‘likes’ actually provide any kind of insight into whether you’ll like an artist’s music: Megadeth ‘like’ Led Zeppelin, I ‘like’ Led Zeppelin, but I sure don’t ‘like’ Megadeth. Yet, when I checked out Sinthesis’s facebook page, our one shared ‘like’ was revealing: “You and Sinthesis both like Beck“. This duo [...]
[Introducing] – Jordan Bolton
Can you remember what you were doing when you were 18? Obviously if you’re 18 or thereabouts I’m going to guess the answer is yes. For me though, 18 was quite a few years ago (no I’m not going to say how many, if you’re that interested you can find out through one of my [...]

[Introducing] – Andy Maher Candy Bar
When I listened to the first few bars of “Steve-O Don’t Move To San Francisco” by Andy Maher Candy Bar, I was almost about to hit the stop button immediately. Call me a heathen, but strummed acoustic guitars just immediately turn me off, I don’t know why. I’m so glad I chose to delay [...]
[Listen/Download] – New Album By Lykke Li – “Wounded Rhymes”
If you’re expecting another “Youth Novels” then you’re not going to get it. Although youth still plays a part on “Wounded Rhymes”, lil’ miss Lykke Li has gone and growed up, all smart and wise-like. At the time of writing I’ve listened to the album a fair few times and so far I’m just not [...]
