Control: Free of the best
http://thebluepaint.blogspot.com/2008/10/free-of-best.html
Monday, 20 October 2008. Free of the best. The best things in life are free". A completely stupid phrase as nothing's completely free! However, some things don't cost any pennies. Often I find 'free' albums, but upon playing them realise they are complete nonsense and have hurt my ears! This of course is not always the case and more importantly this is not the case (in my opinion) of the albums in this post. They're all completely free and legal to download, which makes it all the better. Free of the best.

Control: Powder Blue
http://thebluepaint.blogspot.com/2008/10/powder-blue.html
Tuesday, 14 October 2008. Her eyes are just like black spiders. I funking love Elbow! They're one of the few bands I can listen to whatever mood I'm in and they make me smile. They're also one band I keep forgetting exist. This would be a shame were it not for the fact that I get the excitement of rehearing their music every time I find one of their albums! I'm so happy they got the Mercury Prize this year :D. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Seems So Out of Context. Free of the best.

Control: Japanese Mathematics
http://thebluepaint.blogspot.com/2008/10/japanese-mathematics.html
Thursday, 16 October 2008. A math-rock band from japan? Yes, exactly and they're called LITE. I found this band just recently and being an admirer of math-rock (who isn't? I liked them straight away. They're technically very good and also touring in the UK right now although not venturing northwards into Scotland :( so go see them if you can! Their tour dates are on their website.

Sunday, 26 October 2008. Seems So Out of Context. I spent this weekend going to see none other than Frank Turner live in Manchester, kind of a strange gig because Funeral For a Friend were playing in another part of the venue so as you can imagine - EMO! Instructions are on his website and he might even get into the top 40 :o well anyway I leave you with this live cover, which you might recognise and makes the title of this post make more sense.

Control: July 2008
http://thebluepaint.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, 24 July 2008. My Feet, My Arms and My Ears. Last night I found a cover of Aphex. To Cure A Weakling Child/Girl Boy Song. And turns out he's done a whole album of covers too. I really like the original versions of these two Aphex. Twin songs, and I also like Adem. So put them together and you get something great. It's the first time I've ever heard someone actually cover Aphex. Twin (usually he's just being remixed), it's an acoustic take of both songs sounding quite Amiina. It's been a long time.

Monday, 8 September 2008. The playlist to end all playlists. As we seem to be nearing the potential end of our planet at the hands (or more precisely the bloody big mouth) of a blackhole I thought I would make a playlist in honour of this (end of) historic event. A Hole In The World – Thursday. Another Planet – Pendulum. As The World Falls Down – David Bowie. Disaster Song – Send More Paramedics. End Theme – Zero 7. Endless Skies – VNV Nation. Exit (Diseased World) –Velvet Acid Christ.

Control: C is for Cornelius
http://thebluepaint.blogspot.com/2009/02/c-is-for-cornelius.html
Thursday, 5 February 2009. C is for Cornelius. I first came across Cornelius about 3 years ago. I was listening to a lot of new music given to me by various friends whilst lying in the sun in a grassy University park, and that day 'Bird Watching at Inner Forest' made an impact, it fitted the day perfectly. My favourite has got to be 'Drop' remixed by Kings of Convenience, however for it's visual effect, I present the video for 'Toner', as I find it so entrancing! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
