Song of the Day

CMAT

Irish musician Ciara Mary-Alice Thompson, who simply uses CMAT as her identifier, is beginning to make headway across the Atlantic.

Her 2nd album, Crazymad, for Me, features the song “Where Are Your Kids Tonight”?

She’s assisted on the song by the American artist John Grant.

 

 

Mary Timony

Mary Timony, guitarist and songwriter for such legendary bands Helium, Autoclave, Wild Flag and Ex-Hex, will soon release her 5th solo album, Untame the Tiger.

We have waited 15 years for this album. Much too long but now we have the “Dominoes” to remind us of her musical gift.

Anti Atlas

Anti Atlas, the London electronic duo Ned Bigham and Chris Hufford, create sound landscapes with musicians from around the world.

Their latest EP Fractals features the vocals of Fred Lessore, as heard here on the song “Somewhere in the Trees”.

Record Store Day and The English Beat

Record Store Day Black Friday is today.

We celebrate the independent music stores that enhance our lives with the artists that inspire.

Today there are many special releases including the double vinyl LP, I Just Can’t Stop It by The English Beat. This is a limited edition on clear vinyl, 5000 copies only.

Included on this expanded rerelease are live versions of some of our favourite English Beat songs, a few broadcast live on WBCN, Boston from the Boston Opera House in 1982.

Listen here to the live version of “Twist & Crawl”.

Björk & Rosalía

Björk has just released a new song with Spanish singer Rosalía.

Oral” is her protest against Norwegian-owned commercial salmon farming operations on Iceland’s native ecosystems. The fjords are threatened due to parasitic parasite-ridden fish that are genetically different from Icelandic salmon.

“Opal” was written by Björk years ago but felt it was appropriate now.
