My Sad Captains, Bad Decisions
Filed Under Album Picks | 6 Comments
The members of My Sad Captains are: Nick Goss – guitar, samples, Jack Swayne – bass, Ed Wallis – vocals, guitar, Jim Wallis – drums, vocals and Cathy Lucas – vocals, violin, keyboards
Bad Decisions, their debut single leaves me wanting more! Delightful jingle pop that just puts a smile on your face. Their band name is taken from a Thom Gunn poem and their music is reminiscent from some of their influences such as Pavement and Sparklehorse

Chet, Fight Against Darkness
Filed Under Album Picks | 8 Comments
Fight Against Darkness is the third full length album by this British Columbia based band. It gives you that kick back and chill sort of feeling. Ryan’s majestic voice commands your attention but after a few listens it becomes almost enjoyably haunting. So sit back and relax…

Fight Against Darkness 2007 (Aaargh!) GET IT
And you might have noticed Untitled Records is officially launched, a big thank you to Pip for everything and a big thank you to Squashed over at Bricolage Fantasy for his Word Press wisdom and advice. It has been a long time coming but I am pretty damn proud of how it turned out, that being said please update your links and bookmarks accordingly. :) Cheers!

I’m having one of those music inspired moments where music and thought sync up and there is all this creativity and passion running through your body…And I know some of you may be wondering what I’m on but I assure you nothing. I mean I agree that I may have exaggerated the emotions a bit but I was just making sure that point was clear. ;-)
But actually I was just talking to my talented dear friend Tara about forging your own path, with your own unique style, adding something to your own field(s) of interest something I admire about her…And something I think I may have been lacking in my posts lately.
My daily affirmation: Be original! Stray away from the heard! Weeee!!
And I got an early birthday present this weekend (I’m smiling) a turntable! But it gets better…The turntable plugs right into my computer and converts the marvelous music to mp3 (of course you can’t reproduce the glorious sound of a record and man it is glorious) but it makes it that much easier to share my growing record collection with you. Weeee! I will post a song from the first records soon. :-) So thankful and happy!
