It's good to be here again after a summer spent shaking my head at the lack of interesting music coming from these shores and sheltering from the awful English weather. I've still managed to amass a pile of new albums however and that's why this first podcast in a while is a little new track heavy.

Little Jackie - 28 Butts
The Ruby Suns - Adventure Tour
Voice Of The Seven Woods - Second Transition

An Ears Wide Open Special – The world of 'The Olivia Tremor Control'.
May 15, 2008 05:08 AM PDT

The Olivia Tremor Control hail from Georiga, USA. They were founders of the Elephant Six collective, a group of experimental musicians and friends that spawned, among others, Apples in Stereo, Of Montreal, Elf Power, Great Lakes and Essex Green. I've concretated on the bands nearest to The Olivia Tremor Control on the E6 family tree as an introduction to this wonderfully psychedelic underworld of music.

If you want to know more about these bands and the Elephant Six Collective I can recommend their very own website: 'www.elephant6.com'.
