complexity is the mother of pretention

microfilm:

So it’s that time of year where the radios spill out Christmas tunes. Last year we decided to throw our hat into the ring and do our own attempt at an OTT shiny (not so) happy Christmas ditty.

‘There’s No Snow Here For Christmas’ is the only synthpop holiday song that quotes Nico and has sleighbells on it. Fact!

You can grab a free download of it and one of these two locations:

Fairtilizer: http://fairtilizer.com/track/NoSnow

and

Soundcloud: http://soundcloud.com/microfilmmusic/theres-no-snow-here-for-christmas

Also, are autumn EP ‘Blips Don’t Lie’ is still available for purchase on:

iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/blips-dont-lie/id333777491

or Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Blips-Dont-Lie/dp/B002QR4IVW/ref=sr_shvl_album_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1259601963&sr=301-2

X-mas shopping easy as 1-2-3.

Hope you enjoy the music and thanks again for your support!

Happy Holidays.

Delightful!

I found this old mix CD in a pile of stuff while i was “organizing” (read: looking through old stuff with no intent to do anything with it but play with stuff i forgot about). I though i’d post the track listing. I’m guessing the concept behind the mix was to use all female artists. I listened to this mix to death with my friend Amanda about 4 years ago. I honestly thought she had this mix CD, apparently it’s mine again!

Ye Olde Menses Faire

sinead o’connor - no man’s woman
switcblade symphony - naked birthday
fiona apple - sleep to dream
siouxsie and the banshees - kiss them for me
hole - use once and destroy
tori amos - God
tegan and sarah - speak slow
bjork - crabcraft
alanis morisette - would not come
ani difranco - the diner
fiona - Tymps (the sick in the head song)
sleater-kinney - jumpers
sarah mclachlan - black and white
tori amos - cornflake girl
pj harvey - shame

i don’t know how the last PJ harvey song got on there, because i kind of hate it. she says “Hyp-ma-tize”. it drives me insane every time.
