Playlist 12.10.08

Music, music, music. We’ve got some jazz remixes in here near the start, initially pretty free electronic improv, then the wonderful Vert remixing the Novara Jazz Festival(!) – highly recommended – and also the newie from the The Matthew Herbert Big Band, wowee.
Qua‘s new album Q&A is out, and it’s album of the week here on FBi.
We’ve got a sneak preview of the forthcoming Underlapper remix album, and a couple of tracks from the Lymbyc Systym remix album.
One of the albums of the year came out this week – In Ear Park, from Department of Eagles. It’s been highly anticipated in these quarters, and most certainly does deliver. Among the things you can find on the net are a bunch of videos: four songs performed on a rooftop for Pitchfork.tv – Part 1 and Part 2, and a completely new track from Stereogum. Check ’em out.
Also new this week is the new album from Restiform Bodies, a much less discombobulated affair than their debut, and as yet I’m only convinced by a couple of tracks. Interesting all the same. And Melbourne’s This is Your Captain Speaking do epic post-rock in a pretty straightforward but nonetheless accomplished manner.
