--- Quote ---"Balletesque’ is like a dignified Southern gent, the music flowing as smoothly as bourbon. But while you can relax and enjoy it you won’t be able to resist dancing."
Stuart Gadd, Artrocker

“Balletesque makes significant claims for a band whose time has come.”
Michael Quinn, BBC Muisc

Scandanavian War Machine:
downloading based on the cover alone; I am a sucker for accordions.

--- Quote from: barista.babe on 08 Dec 2009, 06:21 ---Is anyone else anxious for the new Final Fantasy album? I believe the new album is entitled "Heartland." I probably should rephrase that to "Is anyone else anxious for the new Final Fantasy album to leak?"

I am incredibly anxious. Owen Pallett is my hero. But! I will not download the leak. I am too loyal of a fan to grab it.

--- Quote from: Guardian ---Jackie Oates is deservedly becoming yet another young celebrity in the new folk scene, but she has some famous friends to help her – especially her brother. He is Jim Moray, the highly experimental folk star whose Low Culture album was one of the highlights of last year. Here he acts as his sister’s producer, while adding anything from guitar and mandolin to bass, banjo, vocals and a dash of sampling to her gently breathy vocals and violin, viola and cello work. She’s also assisted by that fine Scottish singer-songwriter Alasdair Roberts, who wrote the title track and adds guitar and vocals. But none of that should take attention away from Oates herself. She is capable of handling anything from traditional songs such as The Miller and his Three Songs (helped by Moray’s percussion effects and some sturdy melodeon work from Saul Rose) or the powerful murder-ballad The Butcher’s Boy (on which Roberts adds vocal backing) through to the totally unexpected: a string-backed treatment of the Sugarcubes’ Birthday.

Soundpool - Dichotomies & Dreamland [2008]



Youtube
Seriously good shoegaze. Take the fuzzy guitars of My Bloody Valentine and the weird electronics of Black Moth Super Rainbow, mix, and add dreamy female vox.
