My Feet, My Arms and My Ears

Last night I found a cover of Aphex Twin's To Cure A Weakling Child/Girl Boy Song by Adem and turns out he's done a whole album of covers too. I really like the original versions of these two Aphex Twin songs, and I also like Adem so put them together and you get something great. It's the first time I've ever heard someone actually cover Aphex Twin (usually he's just being remixed), it's an acoustic take of both songs sounding quite Amiina-esque. Anyway, what are you doing still reading this?! Listen here.

My Latest Novel

This isn't really my latest novel but a new discovery of a band, recommended to me by last.fm and its shiny new interface. They also happen to be from Scotland like much of the music I've been listening to recently, albeit from Glasgow but this where the music scene seems to be. Sister Sneaker Sister Soul was the first song that grabbed my attention along with The Hope Edition both of which you can listen free on their website, always a good way to get people to listen. Here's a video of Sister Sneaker Sister Soul it isn't that exciting visually but the music is nice and if you like them I think they have a new album out soon!

Consequence

I'm relaxing at the moment, so sat down and started my music player. I came across an album that I've not heard in probably a year or so, Neon Golden by The Notwist. It's not an album that I have particular fondness for, but there is one track on it that I love - Consequence. I'd forgotten this track even existed; I got used to seeing it on my playlist and never played it. This made me wonder how many other tracks I've neglected. Tracks that deserve to be played! I'm now on a mission to find them and make a super playlist of glory!
