It lead to this article on wired about Robin Guthrie, the founding member of the influential band, Cocteau Twins.
Last month, his new album, Carousel was released and you can grab it directly from his site. http://www.robinguthrie.com The article is a good read about how the times have changed and includes his thoughts on social networking.
As autumn weaves its way into reality here in Hollywood with its grey skies and cool breezes, it reminds me of 20 years earlier, listening to Cocteau Twins and other 4ad/ Beggars Banquet label artists while either on a long train ride or driving my jeep through the blankets of lightly moistened yellow, brown-red leaves throughout PA, NJ & NY. I can even smell the scent of rain and the dust of the trees in the air!
Now I am even more excited to be heading to the east coast in time for Halloween!
More on east coast performances and DJ gigs later. (hang w/ me in Albany on the 31st)
