So about a year ago I was browsing around on last.fm and when I searched for “fully streamable artists” in my last.fm, I found Pogo. I blindly downloaded one Ep, Wonderland, and said to myself “If I like any of it, I’ll download some more.” Once I heard the first track, “Alice” I was already [...]
Triphop/chillout doesn’t get any better then this. Underground rap/hiphop mixed with the Japanese electronic skill of Jun Seba, you can’t go wrong with this album. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=UYSALZP7
Longmont Potion Castle is an anonymous prank caller that has described the albums he has made as “phone work” or “absurdist” art. Those on the receiving end of a Longmont Potion Castle call are often left confused and/or extremely angry, however his calls are rarely mean-spirited in nature.

This increased radio play allowed the Dream to play much [...]
It’s been 40 years Charlie. The Beach Boys covered “Cease to Exist” called “Never Learn Not to Love.” They changed “cease to ‘exist’” with ‘resist’.
I’m drinking coffee and talking to a loved one, discussing this album. He says, “If Boards of Canada released this album, people would go fucking insane.” I said, “It’s not a bad thing though, it’s lovely to be in the vain of genius musicians.” Not to mention, Lunar Testing Lab is a small time artist. [...]
Sounds like: shoegaze meets dream pop meets psychedelic rock Looks like: late-night amusement park seen from atop a ferris wheel Feels like: drowsy afternoon naps, covered in a blanket of disappointment Smells like: fireworks in the distance My dog Twix says: “I like when Max plays this on overcast afternoons and we take a nap.”
This is my favorite psychedelic album of all time, and perhaps the most original album I can think of in the whole genre. For those who don’t know anything about Gong, I’ll write a bit about them, because they’re related to everything else I’ve posted on here so far. Daevid Allen is the bandleader. Before [...]
