NOW PLAYING April 2009

The latest spinning at Outlandos HQ…

1. Mike Gent, Mike Gent

mike-gent

A pop masterpiece. Seriously. It’s easy, it’s smart, it’s fun, AND it has balls. Speaking of, Mike’s other band, The Figgs, has long been one of my favorite live outfits. Read more here. Hear it here. Buy it here.

2. Found, Let Fidelity Break

found

Scottish outfit. Couldn’t get enough of them in Austin. This is off their new EP, The Fidelities EP. Quirky, catchy, techno psychedelia. And funnily/sadly, occasionally relatable. Hear it here. Buy it here.

3. The Guggenheim Grotto, Fee Da Da Dee & Her Beautiful Ideas

guggenheim-grotto

Irish guys, their 1st album was AMAZING, and you should own it. This one, I hate to say it, not so much. Except for tracks 2 & 3, 2 especially, very David Byrne. Hear them here. Buy them here.

4. Jeff Buckley, Grace

jeff-buckley

After reading A Pure Drop (which I don’t necessarily recommend as the writing is terrible, however the subject matter is obviously fascinating), it made sense to hang with Grace again. Forgot how much I’d missed it.

5. Kyle Andrews, Sushi

Kyle has a new one out, surprisingly pop-y for him. This song caught my ears a couple of times at first listen but I just couldn’t embrace it. Until I saw this. Funny how sometimes a visual can energize a song for you in a completely different way.
