It’s a re-working of their songs to become a soundtrack for Spirited Away! ooh…

Looks like it’s his first in four years. Saw his live AV show in the observatory at the CERN with a load of physics nerds around that time, and it was absolutely mesmerising.

Rather belated comment from last week but has anyone heard the Jade Hairpins album?

Thanks for the Roly P heads up - didn’t know he was back in town.

also if you haven’t already got this live mini album from a couple of years ago, she’s now donating all profits of it to BLM

i picked it up at a show last year but might buy the download anyway

Listening to this now!

Didn’t think much of Roly Porter on first listen

Stumbled across this lovely record after hearing a song on the radio

He’s apparently the singer in band I’ve never heard of called Ladybug Transmitter. He’s American but it was recorded in Norway and has something of that simple, sweet melodic sound that you associate with people like Kings of Convience or Sondre Lerche. It reminds me a bit of The Lilac Town and a few other things I can’t quite put my finger on.

Not the sort of thing that normally excites me that much but I really like it.

New Covet is out today. Twinkly tappy instrumental emo/math rock but written by someone who actually understands melody.

Face melting hardcore

you mean i can’t just spam random notes really quickly and hope something good happens by chance??
