Je Suis Animal

I don't really care for most modern indiepop; the kind that gets lauded on blogs, anyway. Je Suis Animal are rather wonderful, though. This is from their new(ish) single on Cloudberry, which you can buy here. It's easier to get their album now it's available in the UK, too.

*NB: I've re-posted all the vinyl rips in slightly louder form after Weesee complained that I'd taken Jonathan Richman's "music shouldn't hurt a baby's ears" dictum to silly extremes...

The Mountain Movers

Daniel Greene's other band (one of them, anyway). There's an interview with him here.You can buy the new album from Safety Meeting. Mine was two hundred and fiftysomething out of an edition of three hundred, so don't hang about. It sounds great: warm, clearly separated tones, not compressed within an inch of its life.

Outrageous Cherry / Sportique

As promised, a couple of 7" single sides. Can you spot the subtle thematic link?

There's a new Outrageous Cherry album imminent. As for what Gregory Webster is up to, who knows. Something, hopefully. You can buy the Sportique single here.
