Can't go back

Man oh man...

Winter has hit Jo'burg here in South Africa and as always I am not prepared at all! Well my own personal little soundtrack to warm up with is sorted as always, just the usual day to day venturing into the cold is the hard part. Luckily there are (as always) some fantastic releases I am catching up on that makes it all just that little bit easier...


Jason Quever is the man behind The Papercuts, a young man in love with all things analogue and spreading a gospel well... according to him... And there are definitely no complaints here. His new album for Gnomonsong, (Devendra Banhart and Vetiver's Andy Cabic's label), Can't Go Back is a retro pop gem of timeless tunes that is sure to warm you up some...

Just another thing to dust is something of an ode to Led Zeppelin's Going to California... The album in a nutshell? Retro chamber pop for the hazy days...

Collaborations with Casiotone For The Painfully Alone and The Skygreen Leopards just adds to an already impressive resume...

Do yourself a favour and listen to these and then go buy it!

Dear Employee
John Brown
Just another thing to dust
+ MYSPACE

Needless to say if you are going to San Francisco, be sure to wear some flowers in your hair and go check them out live!

I'm always on the outside looking in...

John Brown is a great song. very classic sounding. I've been listening to it for the past couple weeks. I could have sworn the lead singer was a female.
