Lots o’ craziness in my life lately, so I haven’t put up the setlists in about a month. I get lazy towards the end, but my picks are in green. Hey guess what? You can totally google them and get the same info I link to when I’m not sucking. Sorry it’s so long, don’t feel compelled to scroll through the whole thing. Like you would any way
6.3.08
time- artist / song [album]
06:54 PM- carolina chocolate drops / sourwood mountain [dona got a ramblin' mind] on the music maker label.
————————————————————————————————————-
06:47 PM- sunset / man’s heart complaint [bright blue dream] on the autobus records label. This is Bill Baird’s (founding member of Sound Team) new project. I was lucky to see Sound TEam play their last show ever at ACL last year…OK the show was awful because the sound guy didn’t know what he was doing and you couldn’t hear any guitar. Really?!? I guess they’ll hire any one to run sound at ACL (note to self!). This song is probably the strongest on the album. Interestingly, most of the members of the now defunct Sound Team contribute.
06:45 PM- animals & men / car crash blues [revel in the static] on the hyped2death label.
————————————————————————————————————-
06:40 PM- yuganaut / channeling [this musicship] on the esp-disk label.
06:35 PM- lee scratch perry / i am new yorker [the end of an american dream] on the megawave label.
06:29 PM- ted leo and pharmacists / la costa brava [living with the living] on the touch and go label. Indie pop rock, really the best of this genre imho. And they played at Rice a few years ago, which gives them a special place in drmiggy’s heart.
————————————————————————————————————-
06:26 PM- various / ada-ada srambahan srepegan nem [shadow music of java] on the rounder label.
06:23 PM- price, connie / tell me something feat. aloe blacc [tell me something] on the ubiquity label. Modern soul with a smattering of reggae. Smoov.
06:20 PM- last poets / mean machine [this is madness] on the restless records label.
————————————————————————————————————-
06:14 PM- various / Dry Rib-quail Seed [technicolor yawn: kvrx local live vol. 12] on the kvrx label.
06:11 PM- lemon jelly / 95 aka make things right ['64-'95] on the xl recordings label. Each song on this album samples music taken from the year indicated in the song title, and the album title references this as well. This particular track was bouncy with plenty of acoustic guitar set against samples from ‘95.
06:05 PM- basement boys / gotta hold on [mudfoot jones] on the savoy label. Mudfoot Jones doesn’t really exist, he’s just a figment of the Basement Boys imagination. BTW if you’re name is Mudfoot Jones and you are reading this I apologize for the misinformation. This track was pretty solid, dancey electropop with soulful vocals and horns.
06:00 PM- ray barretto / manha de carnaval [ritmo afro-cubano] on the fantasy records label.

05:50 PM- grosse abfahrt / the lack americans connected what disappears [everything that disappears] on the emanem label.

06:25 PM- hunter, charlie and bobby previte / submarine canyon [altitude] on the thirsty ear label.
————————————————————————————————————-
06:21 PM- boris / statement [smile] on the southern lord label. Heavy rockin’ Japanese trio Boris’ last few album have received critical acclaim from SPIN, Blender and Pitchfork. While this album is a bit “mainstream” in comparison to earlier works, I wouldn’t count on Boris “selling out”. They are still fond of capitalizing their name to denote more mainstream work and using lowercase (Boris or boris) to denote experimental pieces. Maintaining that convention indicates to me that Boris intends to continually draw on their experimental roots.
06:18 PM- various / run mary run [african congregational singing] on the smithsonian folkaways label.
06:14 PM- dj spooky / rekonstruction (rhyme and reason mix) [subliminal minded the e.p.] on the bar none label.
