We premiere ‘How Do You Know’, a nightmarishly melancholic track, taken from Irish Producer’s Ghost of You EP.

Momentum continues from the Infernal Sounds camp who welcome Darkimh to their digital series with his Ghost of You EP.

3 tracks make up the stylistically broad release from the Irish Producer. Spanning from screwface-dirt to Eerie Indiana vibes, the uniformed weightiness and crisp finish to each piece of music will draw in your attention, and the subtle audible nooks and crannies littered throughout will keep you hooked.

We premiere How Do You Know, a nightmarishly melancholic track with 16 bit – President of Europe vibes. It’s a beautifully crafted, yet terrifying bass-heavy sinister affair. Perfect.

Ghost of You EP by Darkimh is out on 6th August via Infernal Sounds. Buy directly from their Bandcamp here.

So this is a split record from some localish bands (I think), first up we have Cousin Scampi, fuck knows what the name is about but this WELL reminds me of something else that, unfortunately, I can't quite put my finger on. It kind of jumps about a bit stylistically and I'm not sure if it all works. Wouldn't say it was contrived or whatever but perhaps they should stick to what they are good at (the first more melodic track for example) rather than going for the KraZy! KrAzy! angle that's so popular at the minute. So much of that stuff just gets on my tits really really quickly, but then again, loads and loads of people dig this stuff these days so me not liking it might well mean you love it...

The other side is given up to Teen Amateur who have some nice Eerie Indiana ripping artwork going on. Musically it's more straight forward instrumental stuff, kind of repetetive but I can dig it though perhaps only in short-ish doses. It's more sort of big riffing stuff rather than the quiet-loud-quiet shtick of your Explosions in the Mogwais, I think I prefer this side overall.

So yesterday my grandparents found a big box of old 78s that they’ve had in an attic for years, and wanted me to transfer them to CDs. Most were in pretty great shape, no cracks and few scratches. Lots of 1930s sweet/hot jazz, British big band & swing and a few Decca classical ones. This one had its label peeled/scratched off on the a side, on the reverse was a Parlophone march.

90% sure by playing it it’s unleashed some kind of 70 year old curse.

Something strange about @alphachromeyayo and @MadiganDanny Grangeweird cover even though it's just an anassuming picture of a house with a still pond/lake. This album as a whole really reminds me of Eerie Indiana, especially the story in the liner notes👍 https://t.co/a0qFhoFGxt

Hailed by critics and fans alike as a one of the finest songwriters of his generation, Dean Friedman has achieved legendary, pop-icon status for chart-topping hits, Ariel, Lucky Stars, Lydia, McDonald’s Girl and more.

Following last year’s sold-out, 40th Anniversary Tour, Friedman returns to the stage armed with a stunning collection of his insightful and compelling, true-to-life ‘story songs’ – songs of pathos and humor that deal with family, friends, neighbors, work and the seemingly trivial, yet ultimately essential stuff of everyday life.

In addition to his familiar radio hits, album releases and touring, Friedman composes and produces music soundtracks for TV and film, including the music to the hit Central TV series BOON, NBC’s Eerie Indiana, Nickelodeon’s Nick Arcade and the indie horror classic, ‘I Bought a Vampire Motorcycle’. He’s also published a respected tome on the art and craft of songwriting titled, ‘The Songwriter’s Handbook’, based on songwriting workshops and songwriting masterclasses he’s conducted at universities and music conservatories around the world, including L.I.P.A. (the Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts).

A consummate entertainer, Friedman will be performing solo, on guitar and keyboard, featuring songs from throughout his four-decade career, including familiar, radio hits and fan favorites, drawn from his eight studio albums. Invite family and friends and join Friedman for an evening of powerful, poignant and hilarious songs about the ordinary and extraordinary lives we share.

Haner signed his first record deal with Polydor under the name of Brian West. His self-produced first album "Don't Stop Now" featuring the Tower of Power Horns was successful in Europe, where it was certified gold in several countries. Throughout the 1980s, Haner recorded and toured mainly in Europe. In the early 90s, his composition work extended to scoring television shows and films, including TV101 and Eerie, Indiana. From 1998 to 2003, Haner produced his wife's hypnosis show as he continued as a session musician. in 2003, he signed with a Nashville music publisher and released two CDs; "My Old Guitar" and "Carney Man". Carney Man's success led to a successful run in stand-up comedy.

So a quick perusal of the tags page indicates I never talked about the podcast It Makes a Sound on here. Which is fair enough because in and of itself, It Makes a Sound isn't all that Eerie-esque. It's awesome and also a bit hard to describe so I'm going to be lazy here and copy-paste from TVTropes:

It Makes a Sound is a serial fiction Podcast from the Night Vale Presents network, written by and starring Jacquelyn Landgraf as Deirdre Gardner, a nostalgic childhood fan of local musician Wim Faros, who uses her amateur radio show to wax rhapsodic over his life and work in the hopes of revitalizing Rosemary Hills, the podunk, declining hometown where they both grew up.

Anyway, the podcast is awesome and well worth listening to, but what I really wanted to link here is the album that was released at the end of January. You guys, it's so 90s and beautiful and there are ghost deer! It brought me right back to being a teenager in my bedroom singing along with the gigantic five disc cd changer. 12/10, would recommend.

Dean Friedman, one of the pre-eminent songwriters of his generation, announces an epic 32 date UK tour, April-August 2019. The tour kicks off in Belfast, Crescent Arts Centre on April, 19th 2019 and takes in The Bloomsbury Theatre, London on May 11th, 2019 and finishes up at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August. Tickets on sale now.

Dean Friedman will also be hosting, performing and producing two orientated SongFest – micro-music festivals which includes masterclasses in songwriting and celebrating good songs with the artists that make them. This takes place:
July 20/21 at the Springfield Country Hotel, Wareham and August 27/28 at Wychwood Park Hotel, Crewe.

This follows on from the huge success of Friedman’s first SongFest last year. Both SongFest will feature, legendary singer/songwriters: Chris Difford (ex Squeeze); Richard Digance; Boothby Graffoe; Tracey Curtis; Fiona Bevan; Boo Hewerdine and Kal Lavelle - with more to be announced.

Says Friedman, “A good song is like a combination time-machine and transporter-device; with nothing but a handful of words and melody, it creates an instant-universe capable of transporting the listener into another dimension, immersing them in a vivid, virtual world, filled with humor, beauty, pathos and joy. Every one of the incredible songwriters performing at SongFest does just that – each in their own unique and wonderful way.”

Last year marked Dean Friedman’s 40th anniversary in the music industry, where he celebrated with a sold-out UK tour and the re-release of his digitally remastered, 1978 ground breaking album “Well, Well,” said the Rocking Chair’.

Friedman will be performing solo, on guitar and keyboards, featuring songs from throughout his four decade recording career, including his classic hits: ‘Lucky Stars’, ‘Lydia’, ‘McDonald’s Girl’, ‘Ariel’ and ‘Woman of Mine’, as well as selections from his last studio album, ’12 Songs’ – which was fan-funded.

This year marks Friedman’s 16th appearance at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where in addition to his regular concert runs, he’s written and produced several hit children’s musicals, including ‘Smelly Feet’ – a children’s musical that really stinks!

Ariel was a top 30 hit in 1977. It was the only chart single for singer songwriter Dean Friedman. He went on to write jingles and music for films and TV. He was born May 23, 1955 in Paramus, NJ. As a teen he played the New Jersey wedding and bar mitzvah circuit with Marsha and the Self Portraits. He majored in music at City College of New York. One of his teachers was guitarist David Bromberg. Bromberg sent him to the New York City club The Bottom Line and owners Allen Pepper and Stanley Snadowsky agreed to manage him. This led to a record deal with Lifesong Records owned by the duo of Terry Cashman and Tommy West who recorded as Cashman and West. Friedman's 1977 debut album Dean Friedman was produced by Lifesong house producer Rob Stevens. They used session musicians like Jim Ryan on guitar, Tony Levin on bass and Rick Marotta in drums. The sax solo is by George Young who was in the Saturday Night Live band. Ariel reached #26 on the Billboard Hot 100. It is Friedman's tongue in cheek tribute to life in the suburbs of New Jersey. It could have been a bigger hit but some radio stations refused to play the song because Ariel was described as Jewish in the second verse. Friedman's second album "Well, Well" Said The Rocking Chair did well in England as the single Lucky Stars, a duet with Denise Marsa, reached #3 on the British chart. Ace Records has released both albums on one CD. Friedman continued to record occasionally on his own label. He wrote the music for the British TV series Boon and he wrote for Eerie, Indiana and Nick Arcade. One guy clearly influenced by Friedman is Barenaked Ladies lead singer Steven Page who ,appeared on one of Friedman's albums. He still performs and records on his own label. Here's Dean Friedman performing Ariel in Asbury Park, NJ July 23, 1977.

A Perfect Circle has released a music video for the song “So Long, And Thanks For All the Fish.” The track is taken from their latest effort Eat the Elephant, which arrived earlier this year. The clip takes you on a doomsday journey as it reminds you of a Pleasantville meets Eerie Indiana town. As Revolver explained, there are a number of references in this video including a nod to Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

October is precisely the time when the guys over at Upper King Street's Graveface Records & Curiosities come alive. I mean, it's completely decorated in dead things; the very essence of Graveface is Halloween-inspired.

Here are the other 10 reasons why the store is your one-stop shop for all-things Halloween, in case you need an excuse, other than killer records, to check this place out immediately.

8. The Marshmallow Ghosts

Supposedly out of Eerie, Indiana (haha, nice one, guys), Graveface the label's the Marshmallow Ghosts describe its sound as "all-year-round Halloween music for kiddish adults." Sounds about right. The group puts out an album every October on Graveface, and this year is the group's 10th anniversary, so the new release The Marshmallow Ghosts & the Spooky Sideshow is extra special.

Prolific British composer Dominic Glynn, who revitalized Doctor Who’s classic theme for “Sixth Doctor” Colin Baker in 1986 and scored episodes of the series until its classic run ended in 1989, will be a headliner at Con Kasterborous 2018. The premiere southern Doctor Who convention is set for June 9-10, 2018, at the Westin in Huntsville, Alabama.

“We are thrilled to welcome Dominic Glynn to Huntsville for our seventh annual con,” said organizer Bonnie Auten, who created the event in 2012. “Dominic has been on our radar for ages, and we’re thrilled the stars have finally aligned to welcome him into the Con K family!”

Glynn was among the rare composers tapped to rearrange the iconic Doctor Who theme created in 1963 by Ron Grainer and Delia Derbyshire. His version, used on TV during Season 23, remains the Sixth Doctor’s signature theme in new audios from Big Finish Productions. Glynn went on to compose incidental music for the Doctor Who TV episodes “The Mysterious Planet,” “The Ultimate Foe,” “Dragonfire,” “The Happiness Patrol” and “Survival.”

A regular writer for Universal Music Publishing Group and other production music libraries, Glynn’s composing credits range from the theme to the hit Dutch TV thriller “Vuurzee” to the interstitial Adult Swim “bumps” on the Cartoon Network’s late-night programming block. His work has appeared in episodes of “The Simpsons,” “American Idol,” “Red Dwarf,” “Dead Like Me” and “Eerie, Indiana,” as well as the film “Holy Man.” He scored the British thriller “Bad Day” in 2007, contributed to the 2011 documentary “You’ve Been Trumped” and its 2014 sequel, and composed the score to the 2014 movie “A Dangerous Game.” He also wrote music for “Blake’s 7” audio plays by B7 Productions, based on the late-70s cult TV series.

A stalwart of the alternative electronica field, Glynn runs the No Bones Records label, recording under the names “Fluid” and “Cybajaz” and with Justin Mackay as “Syzygy.” He is a regular DJ at the Big Chill music festival. He also composed music for the Acclaim Entertainment video games “Forsaken” — performing as The Swarm — and “Re-Volt.”

Back in April, we wrote about I Was Trying To Get There But It Was Hard To See From The Balloon, a gloriously weird spilt album from Lewtrakimou and Henry Demos released by Fox Food Records. We described the former as “short and sweet and strange”, as if she had “gone foraging in cassette bargain bins and filled her wicker basket with fragments of lo-fi pop songs” to create “a bad dream in a demented toy box”. Well, today we’re delighted to unveil the first video from a forthcoming release from Lewtrakimou with Adam More, and delighted further to announce the song is every bit as odd and intriguing as her previous work.

The track and its video take normality and invert it into something unsettling, using everyday sounds as a trojan horse for the weirdness to worm into your eyes ears. The song features gentle vocals which loop and overlap, mixing with the unnervingly simple instrumentation to create something almost sinister, like the sounds a malevolent entity might make to attract kids to its shadowy home. This segues into minimalist electronica around the halfway mark, switching with the imperfect logic of a half-remembered dream.

The video follows a similar method, with Lewtrakimou riding her bike through a world undeniably ours and yet obviously not, resulting in a viewing experience akin to watching the opening to Eerie, Indiana on some kind of medication. Not once is this careful arrangement broken by something outwardly extraordinary, the cycling and walking and note-taking done from beneath a veneer of indifference, as if things are exactly as they are meant to be. The result is something interestingly apt for the modern age, living out lives surrounded by the surprising and bizarre yet slogging through straight faced, as if we don’t have any other choice.
