The Oedipus Project
Off the road for a month so back to posting music that is worthy, and what better way to begin than with the exquisite Laura Marling.
She has collaborated with the Mercury prize-winning producer Mike Lindsay and together they call themselves LUMP.
Curse of the Contemporary is their first offering.

I’m off to wander Japan, so today’s artist is avant-garde Hatis Noit.
She hails from Hokkaido but now lives in London.
Her name from Japanese folklore means the stem of a lotus flower, connecting the living world of the flower and the spirit world of the root.
On her new EP, Illogical Dance, she collaborated with electronic duo Matmos.
Illogical Lullaby
