Tonight we started with (and scattered through the whole show) a whole lot of what could loosely be termed “pop”. Neil Gaiman, in his journal, mentioned a song by comics author/genius Alan Moore and his Sinister Ducks called “The March of the Sinister Ducks”, which appeared on a flexi-disc with Fantagraphics’ Critters #23 anothology, although it dates from even earlier than that. It was a collaboration with David J of Bauhaus, so we had to hear a brilliant classic by Bauhaus after that. Can made an appearance because Damo Suzuki is in town, and a bunch of new stuff got featured: A new CD from Trinkets, instrumental folky post-rock, featuring beautiful violin and occasional cello, from Brisbane – yay!
A new album by Dublin-based Herv, released on his Compactrisc label, showcasing an innovative electronic scene that seems to be springing up in the capital of Eyre what with Skkatter as well – and the Maersk track on the same label is really nice postfolkrock(tronica?) too!
And finally on the new tip, there’s a new album by Fantômas, mastered as one 74-minute (or something) track. The press release says “Needless to say, this won’t be played on the radio”, so I had to take the bait, and played a 5(ish)-minute chunk that was pretty UFog-friendly!
