And it made us feel alive/alike.

It took a little while for me to get into the vocals, but the new Efterklang is finally growing on me.
I really dig a few tracks; this one in particular.

Also, going to see Malachai tonight at Le Poisson Rouge.
Missed them down at SXSW and I'm quite curious to see how they pull off their live show.

Ashes, ashes, all circles vanish.

Seeing Broadcast tonight at Le Poisson Rouge with Atlas Sound.
Going to be a great show.
Just starting to really get into their new album.
This track is classic Broadcast.

Plus I got to pick up some 45s today from my favorite DJ shop, Deadly Dragon.

My heart, slow down. Won't you beat a little slower? But don't stop. Never end your hunting. You'll see I'm lost without your rhythm.

As far as I know, "The Snake" from Wildbirds & Peacedrums has actually been out for sometime now,
but it seems to have gotten some kind of reissue/re-release lately,
which I'm all for, as it was a really tough one to find there for a while.
They're playing a number of times in NYC over the next few weeks,
including a show tomorrow night at Le Poisson Rouge with Deerhoof and next week with Fanfarlo.
"My Heart" is a song of theirs that I completely obsessed on when I working in London last summer.
I used to play it really loudly late at night at my desk
in the Wieden + Kennedy offices when everyone was already gone for the evening.
Oftentimes, it was after I had been out already with all my work mates for a few rounds of pints.
I'd be a little tipsy, turn it up and sing to myself and wonder where my life was headed.

Apocalypse Now (or quite soon)

Stop making that big face.

Congratulations to Warp Records on 20 years of making progressive, challenging, raw, beautiful, ugly, bizarre, inspiring creations.
If you're in NYC, celebrate with them during the next few days as they're having parties, shows and screening all over the city:
I'll be there.
Here's to another 20.
