Map of Buss Island, a phantom island put on maps for years but eventually un-discovered.
Marches – “Cold Hands Warm Heart”
4AM Is The New Midnight
This album is absolutely strange, and none of the tracks are at all like any of the others. This weird electro-R&B and its staccato horn section really caught my ear, though.
Nightjar and Whip-poor-will
The little frost-work which Titmouse had thrown around his heart, began to melt like snow under sunbeams.
Samuel Warren, Ten Thousand A-Year
Early Day Miners – “Marauder”
The Last Snow EP
Normally a very sedate band, Early Day Miners pull out the big guns on this track. Well, they’re normal-sized guns compared to everyone else, but still. Relatively big.
Bellmour: But tell me how you would be ador’d — I am very tractable.
Congreve, The Old Batchelor
Skygreen Leopards – “The Heron”
One Thousand Bird Ceremony
One of my favorite songs, period. Just the absolute pinnacle of jangly forest-folk. From a fantastic album (their follow-up was disappointing).
