My Brightest Diamond, "Pressure"
from the LP "This Is My Hand" 
Available on CD /Vinyl / Digital 
September 16, 2014
from Asthmatic Kitty Records.

Lyrics:
mountain on top a fire below 
the pressure grows pressure
I feel the weight of a billion years 
come down on me come down
I tried to do it all right I went down down down
workin' hard little delight I forgot the sound of
diamonds

so bright I cannot hide 'em
so heavy I cannot mine 'em
all of this pressure's makin' diamonds
so wild I cannot tame 'em
so shiny I cannot name 'em
all of this pressure's makin' diamonds
disperse the white light

dancing on top the glitter glow
the pressure slows pressure
I feel the blade the cutting edge move out out out
I tried to do it all right I went down down down
workin' hard little delight I forgot the sound of
diamonds

pink purple green red yellow blue
I am in that mood indigo
pink purple green red yellow blue
I am in that mood for diamonds

Cloud Seeding is a music singles project by guitarist Kevin Serra. The project was conceived as a space for collaboration to showcase vocalists he admires. There is no one signature sound, no fixed or preconceived notions, just a space for improvisation that is free to change. Past singles include collaborations with Marissa Nadler, Nadine Carina, Greg Hatem of Heart of Hearts, Sara Syms and Kris English. More singles will be released in 2014.

When Ben Crook – one third of the group – describes their songs as “never finished, just abandoned”; he’s describing a creative process that burrows its way down and down until each track has to be wrenched away from their originator’s hands, given the sheer amount of avenues that the three-piece manage to open up during conception.

Astrid Swan's Astrid4  gets a UK release on 22nd April 2014.
“I don't care for the forest. Never been a nature creature really. I don’t go berry picking in August, I’m fine in the city. But a natural order began to outline itself in the concrete. There are black bears behind my closed eyes, wild deer hoofs in the night. “
If one song from Astrid4 embodies many of the themes within, then it's Black Bear & A Hoofer.
Taken from Astrid Swan's Astrid4 (Soliti 018)

Liu Bei
Infatuation / Atlas World
7th July 2014
Ltd 7” vinyl and digital release

'Atlas World' produced by San Felu
https://twitter.com/SAN_FELU

“We heard something on the radio about Liu Bei, a Chinese warlord who was known as an amazing strategist and a really caring, benevolent leader. He was also eight feet tall and had ears so big he could see them. Seemed like something to aspire to.”

Liu Bei (“Lou Bay”) explains frontman Richard, was born out of a desire to move away from years of solo acoustic songwriting and embark on something entirely new. In August 2013, on the brink of retiring from live music and concentrating fully on an already successful career writing music for TV shows and ads, Richard embarked on a collaborative project with a few friends which eventually led to the full formation of a band. After falling in love all over again with the likes of Slowdive, Ride and Mazzy Star, he felt an urge to create something epic and timeless.

The first song to come was Infatuation – a shimmering, reverb soaked lament charting “how dedication and unconditional love can so quickly turn into something dark and sharp toothed, an aggressive obsession.” You can hear the life cycle of the band within - it retains the reflective, introverted character of its early acoustic form, but builds those raw emotions into something more panoramic, a wash of delayed guitar and building drums reminiscent of the Cocteau Twins.

The accompanying video - a compact cinematic epic - was created by London-based filmmaker Jake Dypka, who upon hearing an early demo of the song knew he had to be involved: “Jake heard Infatuation and said it transported him to his adolescence – to that time and place where every teenage crush eats you alive. He wanted to shoot something that conveyed that – in the end we actually went to the town where he grew up, we even filmed in his childhood home.”

Infatuation was recorded and mixed by James Kenosha (Pulled Apart By Horses, Rhodes, Dancing Years) at The Lodge studio in East Yorkshire during the first days of 2014.

Liu Bei play Servant Jazz Quarters in London on July 10th 2014.

Elizabeth Bernholz is <a href="https://www.facebook.com/gazelletwin">Gazelle Twin</a>. The mystery around her character shows through her music with deep, dark and distorted vocals providing a sense of chilling yet beautiful eeriness. Ripping up the rulebook, Gazelle Twin does things differently, creating a lane of her own within the music world. As she steps up to provide this week's Slumber Session, let the Brighton-based singer and producer take you on a disturbing journey through time, space and sleep. Listen out for two exclusive tracks from the girl herself as you enter the out of body experiences of Gazelle Twin.

"The edge of the bed forms the platform. I am the station building. Spread-eagled over tracks. Inside me, brown tiles, carpeted waiting rooms, walls in beige gloss, green paper towels in dispensers. Geometry binds me. 

A presence is felt before the eyes have seen. A malign figure in a mass of clothes. I become a vase. My head, shoulders, hips and feet. All hollow. I must do everything to fight the gag instinct. I think of sun-baked clay. Then white, glowing, writhing eels slide together, multiplying, bending, oozing.

Flowers ablaze and a black hole engulfs everything. A great pull downwards, into a pit of crystals. Then daylight on a farm. Dwarfed by a vast silo and the buzzing sun."

Slumber Session: Gazelle Twin

"Descarga Pintoresca Y Cosas Chéveres" is an upbeat driven descarga track with psychedelic organs and keyboards.
Released 19th May 2014 on Demencia Tropical, the latest compilation on Galletas Calientes Records.
Stay tuned and look for the vinyl release mid June.
Romperayo is a musical journey through Colombian tropical folklore of the second half of the 20th century, a mischievous and modern interpretation of the up-tempo rhythms of “Descarga” and the psychedelic sounds of ’70s cumbia.
Even if you've never heard of Romperayo, you maybe know some of the musicians playing in the band: 
Romperayo was formed by the “capitán” of the new generation of Colombian percussionists: drummer Pedro Ojeda, who also plays in Los Pirañas, Palanca, CieloMama, Frente Cumbiero, Ondatrópica and Mucho Indio.  Eblis Alvarez (from the world-renowned Meridian Brothers and Los Pirañas)tweaks samplers and electronics, Ricardo Gallo plays the synths, and Juan Manuel Toro is on the electric bass.

Asthmatic Kitty Records is an independent record label that was co-founded by Lowell Brams and his stepson, singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, in 1999. Since its founding, AKR has released albums by a variety of artists, including Lily & Madeleine, My Brightest Diamond and Helado Negro, and is currently home to Sufjan Stevens, Angelo De Augustine, Denison Witmer and The Welcome Wagon. 

Asthmatic Kitty was named after Sara, an orange and white tabby who wandered out of the woods pregnant and starving near Holland, Michigan in 1994. For fourteen years she brought joy as a beloved friend to Lowell, enjoying a happy life despite her initial hardships. Her asthma improved after moving west to New Mexico and Wyoming, where she lived out her days as an asthmatic kitty in name only.
