Happy Halloween folks, but don’t forget Samhainophobia: Your fear of Halloween can result in the following symptoms: breathlessness, excessive sweating, nausea, dry mouth, feeling sick, shaking, heart palpitations, inability to speak or think clearly, a fear of dying, becoming mad or losing control, a sensation of detachment from reality or a full blown anxiety attack.

Efforts by a new generation of artists like Marc McGuire and his Emeralds trio, Oneohtrix Point Never, High Wolf, Steve Hauschildt, Ducktails, Sam Goldberg, James Ferraro, Sun Araw sparked a newfound interest in new age / synth music as well as cassette players, bringing back the glory days of kosmiche music and krautrock

My last.fm says I’ve listened to this particular song for 26 times, something I seldom do. I truly can’t stop listening to this one, and FOR ONCE I even care about the lyrics of an indie rock song. Sing along with the Real Estate who’re releasing one of the best LPs concieved this year, and this one comes from a an indie-rock/hipster sceptic. Out soon on Woodsist.

Used to have a few songs from this one and I think I even played one in previous undomondo shows, now I have the full release and it’s full of gold. Dating from the most lucrative period in music history the 60’s and the 70’s, it’s highly unlikely to be otherwise, anyway. Must get this one, piece of history I say!

Seems the recent interest in experimental beat & everything cosmic has helped UK beatmaker Kelpe get more air time with his fourth DC Recordings offering “Cambio Wechsel”.

Coati Mundi aka Andy Hernandez, member of the chicano funk/roller disco troupe Kid Creole and the Coconuts is back from retirement with a new release on Rong Music which is just a teaser for an upcoming full length!. If this one can’t make you feel happy, you might actually start considering suicide..

Just had this Neon Indian’s synth based electro disco treat for Au Revoir Simone’s Another Likely in our mailbox. Not our usual cup of coffee but this hazy nudisco sound has its ups for sure. Coupled it with Nite Jewel’s What did he say. Nite Jewel = The queen of haziness.

This nugget by one half of Partial Arts Al Usher has been gracing our sound systems for a good two months, but I was looking to couple it with another track or a piece of news. I found the news I was looking for a few days ago, there’s a new bunch of remixes from Gatto Fritto, Mark Seven and Prins Thomas.
