The Mountain Goats


Director Rian Johnson filmed John Darnielle a.k.a. The Mountain Goats as he played songs from ‘The Life of The World to Come’ in a room. The result was captured on a special DVD release for record store day this year, and is still haunting to watch as this take of “Ezekiel and The Permanent Efficacy of Grace” testifies.

Caribou Vibration Ensemble

As you know we’re big fans of Caribou here and so we are really excited to hear about the new double LP live album that they are preparing for sale on tour. The artwork is beautiful and anybody who caught Caribou at either of our two shows earlier in the year or Field Day 2010 will know how good Dan Snaith and his cohorts are live.

The live album is recorded from a special set at ATP New York last year and features Four Tet and many others. This sent us on a rather geeky hunt for footage of the performance and this is the fruit of our labour:


Caribou Vibration Ensemble – Melody Day (Live at NY ATP)

Haunting version of one of our favourite Caribou songs. Sparse backing and nice chorus of voices really brings out the togetherness of the song. Interestingly it sounds a lot more like the Four Tet remix of Melody Day which is special in its own right:


All of which makes us very excited about the tour only limited edition vinyl which you can pick up at Caribou’s shows over the next few months including our own Four Tet curated show in November (wonder if we will see a special collaboration there too!)

Wildbirds and Peacedrums

Check out the singular Wildbirds and Peacedrums at a world renowned boxing gym. The duo bring their percussive free falling folk to the table while the regulars spar. They didn’t know what hit them and neither do we.

(They play for Eat Your Own Ears on the 27th of November)
