hi all,
Just got the new NME (12th June) here
in da UK and there's some idm-related
interesting stuff in there, so I thought i'd
pass it on. I'll try to do this semi-regularly
if i remember..
Another festival at Pontin's (ancient holiday
camp!) in Camber Sands, September 17th-19th.
Bands include cool 'indie' stuff like Arab Strap,
Sterelob, Tortoise, Ween, but also some nice idm
things like Plone and Plaid live.
Cylob's new album is called "Lobster Tracks" and
it's out on Rephlex July 12th, along with a new record
from Jones (hurrah!), "The Jones Machine", same
date, same label.
Andrea Parker's "Kiss My Arp", heavily delayed cos
of the Mo Wax label-ownership shenanigans, is out
in the UK June 28th.
Reviews include Plaid's "Rest Proof Clockwork" getting
7/10 ("both furiously modernist and strangely quaint:
breakbeat electronica that's too ornate and eccentric to
be remotely streetwise").
Umm, and that's about it :)
Later,
h0l
