Hello everyone, long long time. I hope you're all fine. It seems this forum turns around a handful of hardcore forumers.

I have a blog and I wrote an article focusing on St. Vincent's discography :

I've never made any new year resolution in all my life, except this time indeed.

First, and yes, stop smoking. This can sound like a good clich?, except I began to smoke seriously about two years and a half ago in order to bear the smell of my dear wife's cigarettes, but also an occasion to jump ...

Three is few but a good number anyway, so here are mine, in order of what comes to my mind :

Animal Collective - Feels
Hanne Hukkelberg - Little Things
Andrew Bird and The Mysterious Production of Eggs

For the rest, I dig out:

Sightings - Arrived in Gold
Lightning Bolt Hypermagic Mountain

Yes, guys and girls, I owe a TV for about three weeks now ^ . After a hiatus of about 13 years, I have to say this makes me feel very childlike. With this I went to the cave and fetch boxes with old videotapes and my video cassette recorder. And oh my god, so many nice movies I still have and all ...

I know her from only one track, but something is telling me that girl could be my next sweet and big little discovery after Susanna and The Magical Orchestra at the beginning of last year, and YES, she's Norvegian too. Not my fault, they got class that is! Surrounded by some fellows from Jaga ...

Now playing in tha headphones "RaYDONcONG 2005" by Mahjongg, a band coming from Chicago, or so it seems. Angie ...

And, Dave, to go on further and jazzier, The Magical Orchestra is indeed one man called Morten Qvenild, he's 26 and a very nice and low profile guy. I talked a bit with him that famous evening. The guy, besides having played with Jaga Jazzist and now in Shining and The National Bank, has his own ...

Two excellent concerts for me these last weeks with first the over-talented Andrew Bird accompanied by a super fine drummer only, his name is Kevin O'Donnel and you can admire his nice incisive touch all over Bird's great records. Watching Bird multitracking in real time his violin, pizzicato and ...

No, I don't play much music the last weeks, far from it, but this evening I went on with that fine jewel that "Smiling & Waving" by Anja Garbarek is, the duet with Robert Wyatt called "The Diver" being its climax, but a song like "And then" with its prominent harp and very poetic lyrics won't be ...

Indeed, but I'm quite too late, so to speak... [l)]
