I’m now in San Francisco and have been listening quite a lot to the forthcoming Aspera release, Oh Fantastica, schedule for stores on 3 June from Jagjaguwar. The boys are carefully tweaking their tunes for a one-sided LP to come out later in the autumn time frame. If you are a fan of the Birds Fly sound (and how couldn’t you be?), you will love Oh Fantastica and all that comes later. Unwed Sailor : The Marionette and The Music Box is going for adds on CMJ stations this week, so any support is appreciated, especially as well-informed listeners. Keep your ears open and attentive. Unwed Sailor is planning an August tour of the US with Early Day Miners, more details will be announced once they are finalized. Do you have EDM’s Jefferson at Rest album yet? It is something you need to get this week. I had a great time hanging out with my friends in LA and was able to make a second stop at Randy’s Donuts on the way to the airport. Perfection in a donut?

I just returned from a short trip to Montreal. I may end up going back over the course of the year, hopefully getting to see the Expos and Godspeed You! Black Emperor both play. No dramatic revelations or observations, really. A very special congratulations to my friends in Umea, Krister and Ylva who just had a baby boy. Krister’s hoping he will be a Swedish rock star someday, just like Krister. One-sided LPs…Early Day Miners will be out in a couple of weeks or so and features tracks a little more subdued than the rockers on their latest release, Jefferson at rest…Yume Bitsu artwork is being completed still, but we all know what we’re going to do for it, at least…The Six Parts Seven will come out in August or so, once Ethan gets the covers silk screened, this is definitely some fine instrumental music and you will be impressed…Aspera, Kind of Like Spitting, and Starflyer 59 are in the progress of recording…Brother Danielson has a concept and is getting ready to record…It is all coming together… :::scott:::
