Beach House - Teen Dream

^ Some dream pop from this year that should be fairly cool. And...

Ali Farka Touré & Toumani Diabaté - Ali & Toumani

^ ...the second collaboration between these two chappies following the success of In the Heart Of the Moon and recorded just before Touré's death from bone cancer.

My copy of 'In search of the lost Chord' by Moody Blues arrived today, which pleased me greatly. Along with 'Moseley Shoals' by OCS (replaced for about the 7th time) and 'Life's too good' by the Sugarcubes. Happy days for me today.

Downloaded a rash of albums last night..

A Silver Mt. Zion: He Has Left Us Alone but Shafts of Light Sometimes Grace the Corners of Our Rooms, Kollaps Tradixionales
Don Caballero - What Burns Never Returns
Janelle Monáe - The ArchAndroid
John Coltrane - Ascension, Live at Birdland, A Love Supreme, My Favorite Things, Olé Coltrane
Miles Davis - Birth of the Cool, Sketches of Spain
Death From Above 1979 - Heads Up
Rahsaan Roland Kirk - Bright Moments
Talk Talk - Laughing Stock
Talking Heads - Remain in Light, The Name of this Band is Talking Heads
Thelonious Monk - Brilliant Corners
Toe - The Book About My Idle Plot On A Vague Anxiety, For Long Tomorrow
Wire - 154, Chairs Missing

Either stuff I should've already had, stuff I used to have or something new. Janelle Monáe I already knew about but this album was released this year, Talking Heads was redownload, Toe was on the recommendation of a friend, Don Caballero is a wildcard, etc.

Right now Death From Above 1979 is kicking my ass and I love it.

Got a pair of albums by O Pioneers!!!

A little more hardcore than I'm used to, but I still like it, the vocals aren't unbearable, and I do like the instrumentals.

Wow, interesting. Really powerful. Never heard of him before, but I googled him and found out that he worked with SPK and was generally involved in that early industrial scene with Throbbing Gristle, Coil, Nurse With Wound. As I am a fan of early industrial I really need to check him out. Thanks for the videos.

I've always hated O Pioneers! actual music, but I've met them a few times and they're pretty nice guys. If you want something a little more mathy, and a lot more enjoyable in my opinion, check out twain harte.

As for me, I've been completing my prefuse 73 collection:

Morcheeba - Blood Like Lemonade (2010)

I'm enjoying this so far, it's a lot more relaxed than some of their previous albums, however I still don't think it's as good as Cherango (2002)

Deer Tick - The Black Dirt Sessions (2010)

Initial reports are telling me I'm not going to find much from this album, however I quite enjoy Deer Tick's blend of alt. country and indie rock so I feel obliged to give it a try at least.
