matmos, son lux
Two very interesting electronic MP3s turned up at the Moose today. The first is Rainbow Flag from Supreme Balloon a new release from the electronic experimentalist and occasional Bjork sidekicks, Matmos. Matador releases Supreme Balloon in the U.S. on May 6 and in the UK/Europe May 5.
Meanwhile I came across Son Lux as I was watching YouTube videos on my Apple TV…the video for the song Break is quite good but I love the song. Here’s some hyperbole about the album, not sure who wrote it -
Son Lux - At War With Walls And Mazes. Release date: 02.26.08
“At War With Walls & Mazes is a stunning debut wrung from classical precision and good old human gut-wrench. Son Lux’s first is a heady collection of songs breathing the same air and sharing the same space; painted from the same palette but set apart still—each is a distinct region of one broad, heaving sonic landscape.”

Dave, I just Google’d your blog after seeing your comments on my friend Caren’s blog over at pastemagazine.com. Ryan (Son Lux) is a friend of mine — he’ll be jazzed that you dig his stuff. Vive Serendipity!

@Reid and Son Lux, serendipity indeed, and such a small world inside the giant internet universe…
