Julie Doiron - Julie Doiron and the Wooden Stars



It is currently raining in Halifax, and what better way to accentuate the weather's beauty than some beautiful rainy music. I cannot think of a better record to bring light to the monochromatic skies that reign over the trees on Spring Garden Road. Julie's music has been around for a long time. She started out playing her Rickenbacker bass in Eric's Trip - one of Canada's most rockilicious, lo-fi gems - along with Rick White in the nineties. Her first solo record came out in 1996. She just released her ... ninth (?) solo lp a few months ago. This record is certainly a highlight in a brilliant catalogue, and unfortunately her only one with the Wooden Stars. You'll hear more rocking, full band arrangements of her songs on this one than on many others. If you enjoy this record, I highly recommend checking out the others, especially Desormais, which remains one of my all time favourites (and will probably be posted in the near future). As Feist reigns queen the indie music scene in Canada in terms of success, it could be argued that Julie reigns in terms influence she has had on musicians across the country, whether it's through Eric's Trip, or her solo work. 

And watch out for that last track...

Ruckus Roboticus - Playing With Scratches


Long time no see! My internet bill has finally been paid, so, to inaugurate:


Artist - Ruckus Roboticus
Album - Playing With Scratches
Year - 2007
Vitals - 320kbps MP3 CBR

This one's a little hard to come by, for some reason. Which is too bad, because it's fantastic. Something of a concept album about the life and times of a fictional, masterful turntablist.

this record is:
funky, playful, silly, clever, bizarrely retro. get it in your ears.
