We're still here, surprisingly! Artists this time include The Veils, Kelly Willis, Gillian Welch, I Was a King, Alice in Chains, Adding Machine, Takako Minekawa, The History of Apple Pie, Blood Diamonds (feat. Grimes), Wilco and Adrian Belew.

Sort of a random assortment, mostly just stuff I've been spinning lately.

Christmas Wish

It's been a long, busy week, but we're still here. This time, bring you Christmas wishes from the super cool, Takako Minekawa. Sadly, it doesn't look like she'll be gracing us with new music anymore. At least we still have the gifts she has given us, including her Xmas EP, (A Little Touch of) Baroque in the Winter, upon which you can find this track.

Takako Minekawa - Christmas Wish

Never/More

I just ran into the coolest fucking song. It's a remix of Takako Minekawa's Never/More. The remixer is done by some peeps called Sweet Trip who, evidently, are from San Francisco. How cool is that? From what I can tell, the track is on the Japanese version of the Recubed EP, and I have only the American release of that disc. I like the static-y sheen they add to the song, it's like drifting through white-noise clouds on a grey and overcast day. Very lovely. The original version is on her quirky and very cool Roomic Cube album. I might have to see if I can find the Japanese issue of Recubed.
