Eclectic Mainline – 11th May 2011

Every so often (actually, quite often) some music comes along that I think is amazing.  Every so often (literally) I see some album artwork that I think is amazing.  Enter M. Ostermeier, whose new album combines beautiful music with a quite captivating, ‘is that real?’ cover photo.  It is real, and to find out where it is from, simply clickety click on the photo below.

You would be forgiven for missing the first half of tonight’s show and watching Waterloo Road instead because I, as one fifth of Wilful Missing, had music featured in today’s episode.  A very proud day indeed.  If you did miss any of my show you can listen again for up to 28 days.  Here’s a full list of what I played (several long tunes tonight, hence a smaller number of tunes in total):Low – “Nothing But Heart” (LP – “C’Mon”) (Sub Pop)
Matthewdavid – “Being Without You” (LP – “Outmind”) (Brainfeeder)
Nguuni Lovers Lovers – “Beth Kathini” (single b-side of “Cheza Ngoma”) (Dream Beach)
Frank Turner – “Peggy Sang The Blues” (single) (Xtra Mile)
Panda Bear – “Afterburner” (LP – “Tomboy”) (Paw Tracks)
