Ambient Music & Post-Rock Photos
Posted on | May 4, 2007 | No Comments
I’m a big fan of photo sharing site Flickr, and one good way to learn more about the music I listen to has been to look for photos of artists I’m familiar with. I recently took a look at my 4 Star+ playlist in iTunes and tried to see how many photos I could come up with. The results are below. See how many PowerBooks you can spot!

Solace, by Jakob
Posted on | May 2, 2007 | No Comments
I picked up New Zealand band Jakob’s Cale:drew back in December, and liked most of it. So when I noticed a new Jakob record available on eMusic, I picked it up. Solace, by Jakob, is a post-rock-ish record, and a nice one at that.
Their record label, Midium Records, claims the new record won’t be out until May 7, 2007, but I’ve got a copy playing right now that I downloaded from eMusic, with a release date of April 2, 2007. Perhaps their talking about hard copies. In any case, I’ve got it, it’s good, and I think you should have a listen.
