El humo azul
el fuego negro
el viento espeso
la tierra costra
la costra acuosa
el destino hilado
el inicio callado
la luna de mediodia
el plastico quemado
el diablo blanco
murmuros…
Matmos - for the trees (return)
Savath & Savalas - folk song for a cello
Populous - clap like breeze
Lippok & Morgenstern - sommer
Jaga Jazzist - for all you happy people

Today is Easter in the Unit States. As part of my celebration of easter i’m going to listen to some rad easter tunes.
Crishy picked out some winners, oh man, that Rev. A.W. Nix kills me ! those harmonies on the Morris Family track, it just don’t get better!
In our part of the world people do dress up in pastels and listen to the reverend for easter, but i’d rather take to the street and parade. Caribbean revels: Haitian Rara & Dominican Gaga documents street music during the Easter celebrations of these people.
i’m going to parade this afternoon, i think.
word out!
Oh-mmh
Rev. A.W. Nix- Who Dressed You Up For Easter Nix & Dickinson Vol. 2 (1928-1931)

Good morning. And yes, this list is 3 days and 5 hours late for actual intended purpose. But It’s still has some good music in it. It is a lovely list, designed specifically to wake up on weekend. (or weekeday even) Starts slow, then build up and end with a very energetic punk piece. All of these tracks are my recent favorites.
01. Tarentel - Two Sides Of Myself
02. Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions - Clear Day
03. Green Milk from the Planet Orange - Sweet 5 A.M.
04. The Velvet Underground - Sunday Morning
05. Point Juncture, WA - Cardboard Box
06. Sonic Youth - Unmade Bed
07. Dream Bitch - Dream Bitch
08. Apollo Sunshine - Today Is The Day

Just before I depart up to the mountains I’ll take some time to whisper to you some of the songs playlist I’ve organized to play on my way up. I’ll see you back on Sunday.
Efterklang - monopolist
Lampshade - plakka plakka

Static Discos has remained at the forefront of experimental electronic music in Mexico since it beginnings in early 2002. The label was established by musicians Fernando Corona (Murcof, Terrestre), Rubén A. Tamayo (Fax) and Ejival, in Tijuana México as a sort of response to the emergent intelligent dance music community in the country and around latin america.
Recently, the label has released its first compilation, entitled “Lucky Stock”. On the cusp of a gamut of electronic genres (minimal techno, electronic pop, kraut techno, indietronica, elektrotecno, dub and digital jazz), and with a modest yet steady growth, Static Discos collects the best of the best to craft an engaging and important document of this emergent movement in our country.
Future-wise, the label will most likely continue to release its large core of artists and attempt to remain on the cutting edge of electronic music- it’s done an amazing job, thus far.
Childs - Oliver
One second bridge - ghost (aguardiente remix)
Carrie - Cat power
Pepito - the new world
H. Amézquita - quota
Murcof - el cielo
