ok well i'll give it a try then...

well ticketweb says sold out.. maybe there'll be some on the door. hopefully ross or someone can let us know whether it's worth making the trip? jeez.. so what's with all the kids buying tickets in advance??

sold out i beleive??

if you're there for a while, then you might want to check out student halls.. there are loads of them about.. (edit) oh wait.. two weeks.. maybe not. i should learn to read.

a fan here.. first heard them on the how does it feel to be loved? compilation and picked up a 7" (fire escape) from one-up last year.. ..there are so many really good indiepop bands out there at the moment. we've actually been considering trying to get a few of them up here.. we're not sure whether anyone would actually turn up though!

i thought someyoungpedro were pretty good.. kept my attention anyway. those other two were on top form as usual:up: thought the tunes afterwards could've been a bit more consistant.. would've enticed a few more folk to dance for longer (i can't talk). was pretty wasted.. but remember hearing that Fuck Buttons tune.. not sure how dancable that particular one is.

hi there, check out my myspace... MySpace.com - herzog - Aberdeen, UK - Electronica / Folk / Experimental - www.myspace.com/herzogmusic i'm always up for collabs and the like..

this'll be the third time we've been treated to a bit of Caribou in as many years, no? therefore i expect, nae demand this trend to continue, mike.. ..perhaps we can declare a special "caribou day" every year and make it a public holiday? am i being too greedy?

i laughed harder at the comments "That would suck if the guy hit that girl by accident like he was giving that guy directions and pointed and hit the girl and the got his ass kicked for no reason." "right after the guy hits his girlfriend that guy in the yellow fuckin beat that piss out of those fuskheads what a bunch of dicks"

..as if anyone would do that!!

Cancelled - according to their myspace anything else happening at DHC instead?

ian_brown.. you have no soul.

hands up who thought that was rather good?? and yeah.. the left side was pretty shit.. but it was mostly made up of people going to the toilet.

supports are: screaming tea party.. and roys iron DNA ..parently. never heard of 'em.

gah. i really wish primavera would be at a more agreeable time of year for those of us blighted by exams/coursework submissions (then i guess they'd have to change the name of the festival, right?). benicassim falls on my birthday this year.. but the line-up is still a little uninspiring if you ask me (i realise no-one asked me). i feel like primavera 2008 is mocking me with it's aceness... i mean.. POLVO! jeez. looks like it'll be Indietracks for me this year.. indie-pop... on a train.. and in a church? with a bouncy castle? serious twee.

hello! ..so i am fed up with Rough Trade's slow delivery and poor service and communication. i'm going to take my record-buying custom elsewhere. any recommendations?

oh.. it was kind of a speculative can-i-please-support-stars-of-the-lid gesture.. but i'm a bit shy and bashfull

*ahem* pleeease??

*bump* this saturday!!

i'll be there.. wherever it is (if you don't find anywhere.. text me or giles, we'll 'avim in our front room)... and i'll be *dancing*

great night sharon! i get the feeling quite a few regular snafu-goers were rather surprised to witness two french guys beating the shit out of a drum kit and some amazing vintage synths. quality!! b.xx

can't wait! if last.fm is anything to go by, then this might be pretty well attented! more canadians please!! : )

if anyone's interested - someone sent me a link to this today: possibly one of the strangest reviews i've ever received. tokafi - Net Decks 23 Herzog - Ocean! Be Our Blanket Slowly but surely the name Bill Bawden is getting around. A firm insider tip among attentive ears, his EPs and sampler contributions for UK-outfit Serein have left an impression not just with fans of romantic and heartwarmingly off–kilter-ambient, but with musicians and other netlabel heads as well. 12 Records, for one, were extremely chuffed about being able to present the third in a string of short-form releases by Bawden’s nom de plume Herzog. “Ocean! Be Our Blanket” passed us by at the time of its release, but makes for one of these equally upsetting and uplifting “How could I have missed that!”-and-“What a brilliant discovery!”-moments one occasionally encounters when the sky is premonitiously grey, the mood’s gloomy and nothing seems to work out right. “Ocean! Be Our Blanket” certainly caught me off-guard and turned a morning which promised nothing but uninspiring work and stress into an oasis of rest and peace. “His idea of transforming analogue sounds into short-form ambient-compositions fit our intentions perfectly.” 12 Records bosses Sim Sullen and Sven Swift mention in the introductory notes, but there is quite a lot more going on here. Especially in terms of instrumentation, Bawden avoids the trapdoors of monochromaticism and builds his orchestra from various field recordings, minimal piano trickles, rhythmically broken radio frequencies, powerful pads and soft drones, as well as intangible echoes of what could be a guitar being plucked. With the gentlest of movements, casual and careful at the same time, Bawden then stirrs these elements into glistening photonic crystals like a pastry chef mixing in beaten eggwhites with a cream of quark, raisines and cherries. His melodies are recursive and seem to fall back into themselves, like a skater in a halfpipe, creating the sensation of movement without really advancing one step. Herzog uses reverb with utmost care, preferring intimacy above majesty and enjoys delaying his motives into spiralling grooves of high emotionality. Especially so in the closing “I’m no cathedral”, with its deep organ root, far-away drum machine clatterings and filtered psycho-acoustics, a piece which reaches out to several scenes and genres at the same time. So does the entire release, which has a strong coherence and continously references itself without ever actually repeating a note. A mixture of Winter and Autumn-tunes glowing in the rays of a Summer Sun and with the promise of Spring. Postrock, Glitchpop, Future Rap
