Eh up! Jed Whedon is back to his proper job. A ludicrously good deal on the complete discography as well also.
One Wot I Like
Contemporary Tunes that tickle my fancy
In Which Enon Comes Out Of The Closet
ゲスの極み乙女。「人生の針」
Mass Of The Fermenting Dregs – うたを歌えば
Uncanny
Daimon Orchestra – 扇情のオーケストラ
The chaps with the nifty footwork are doing a traditional festival dance of the region.
International Bandcamp Day
37 email notifications from bands have subtly reminded me that it is Bandcamp waiving not drowning Friday where they give their share of sales to good causes. So I endured the multiple PayPal checkouts to buy, amongst others…
Mizu Amane from the Anoice stable makes sure those whose Japanese isn’t up scratch don’t feel left out by singing in archaic language people from their own country would struggle to understand.
I caught up on the Tanya Donelly fund raising series – here doing a track by the other US band on 4AD in the 80s who were quite good but never in Throwing Muses’ league.
After a bit of a cock-up on the upload front Mass Of The Fermenting Dregs bring you You.
Unintentionally winding me up as I can’t quite remember what Glue Magic from their new EP reminds me of is Tenma Tenma (so good they named it twice).
Twas early Phoenix I was thinking of.
A little more left field from Takara Araki on Tanukineiri Records who appear to have gotten out of the pottery business.

Not Sure About The Bod Reboot
But the music is a step up from Alberto frog.
mei ehara – 群れになって
A bit tenuous but I think it was the green background that did it.
Bandcamp Friday
On the one hand I’m beginning to feel guilty that Bandcamp never make any money when I splurge on these Friday events but on the other I’m still disappointed that ‘name your price’ offers won’t let me enter ‘Kevin’.
Just a brace of albums this week but managed to cover a reasonable amount of territory: American octogenarian actor / singer Ronny Cox
And from Japan of uncertain age it’s i-fls once more with…
ゲスの極み乙女。feat. Sincere Tanya – The Record of Life
Sounds Like My Sort Of Thing
‘Music-for-going-to-the-studio-depressed-allowing-the-instruments-to-slowly-fill-a-dark-empty-void-in-my-head-and-slowly-walking-through-the-night-somewhat-more-at-peace.’
And as it turns out it sounds like my sort of thing…
藤本ちゃお – バカちんぽ天国
The excellent new album from Fuji Chao offers those learning Japanese a chance to widen their vocabulary.
