Oslo

A few photos from my recent trip to Oslo, Norway....




When in Oslo, check out Tiger Records and Big Dipper Records. They both had a variety of albums by local acts and international artists. I ended up buying a couple Einar Stenseng albums which are brilliant.

Factory Kids "Get Gone" EP

Today marks another release from Tim's and my project, Factory Kids. This time, it is our "Get Gone" EP, released as a free download by NOECHO records. It is definitely the most experimental stuff we have come up with so far...

the Manics take over Rock Radio

Tune into Scotland's Rock Radio on Tuesday, 21 September, from 10pm as James Dean Bradfield and Nicky Wire from the Manic Street Preachers will be playing their favourite classic rock tracks. You can listen at 96.3 FM in Scotland or online from anywhere.

Also, the Manics album Postcards From a Young Man is out today in the UK! Then next week the Manics kick off their UK tour in Glasgow.

A Dead Skeletons Post

This year I have been really into the Dead Skeletons, which consist of Henrik from Singapore Sling, Nonni Dead and sometimes Anton Newcombe, among others. Their first track "Dead Mantra" has finally been pressed onto vinyl and made available at Cargo Records.

Then last week they released a video for a new track, "Kingdom of God". I really want to find out what old Disney cartoon this is, because it looks absolutely amazing!




Lastly, Anton Newcombe along with his friends have a brand new TV/radio station, We Are the Radio, which broadcasts live from Reykjavik and Berlin. Every time I tune in, there is always something interesting to listen and/or see...watch here.

Video: Robyn's "Hang With Me"

Swedish popstar Robyn currently holds both the #1 and #2 positions on the Swedish album chart with her albums, Body Talk part 2 and Body Talk part 1 respectively. The first single from part 2 is the lovely "Hang With Me".



Body Talk part 2 is out now everywhere on Robyn's own label, Konichiwa Records.
