New great site - Rebuilt Tranny

A great site from a good friend, he is going through the process of digitalizing all his rare/weird records. As a friend who has sat with him through some of his current and future posts, there are some really great albums that will be posted. If you love rare music here is where to go.

Junior Boys - Begone Dull Care

Third album from this electronic duo from Canada. An excellent offering to the music world, not as fast paced as most electronic music but better in my opinion. The beats are slower, Junior Boys let the beats sink into your bloodstream and take control. The opening track "Parallel Lines" is probably my favorite, for some reason the beat makes me think of the film Escape From New York. "Hazel" is another great song from this album, probably the most danceable as well. "Work" is another fantastic song, sounds like an LCD Soundsystem track. This may not be the best album for a saturday night party, but is perfect for a relaxing time after work. Enjoy here.

Why? - Eskimo Snow - News

And also due to the positive response from the "Eskimo Snow (Sock Hop Version)", I found the album Version, Here.



And, finally for all of you still enthraled with Alopecia, I found the complete "Alopecia Demos" Here.

Spoon - ETC

Recently got some older stuff by Spoon, and thought i would upload them. Also their newest EP.


First up is the single "The Agony of Laffitte" from their album "Series Of Sneaks". Here


Next is "Car Radio" single another off of "Series Of Sneaks". Here


And Now their New EP "Got Nuffin", hope this will keep you satisfied till their next release. Here


Telephono, is their release from 1996, crazy to think about how long they have been around. Not as polished or minimalistic as their music now. But still very good, and definetely worth the time. Fav tracks are Dont Buy The Realistic, and Nefarious. Enjoy


Soft Effects is an EP released in 1997, all songs are really really good. If you were to add a few more songs to this it would be a hell of an album. Enjoy.

Yim Yames - Tribute To [EP]

Most will know that Yim Yames is actually Jim James of MMJ. This EP is a collection of George Harrison solo songs, as well as a few Beatles tunes. MMJ will be on hiatus for awhile, after years and years of releases and touring, so Jim James solo projects will hopefully keep you hooked. Enjoy Here

Congrats Roger on #15

WHY? - Etc

First up is a WHY? MP3 put up to draw attention to a cause to help the Sudanese people. Check out the link to see how you can help by buying a Vinyl mix, with songs from Why?, Jim O'Rourke, Dan Deacon, and Mount Eerie. All money made goes to the cause, please help out if you can.

Sanddollars (EP)

Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest

After listening to the band's side project Department Of Eagles and their latest album "In Ear Park", I thought it would be really tough for the band to top it, not to mention their fantastic album "Yellow House". But they proved me very wrong. This album lived up to the months and years of hype, and all the shitty leaks that have been heavy throughout the internet for months. This is one of the best of the year so far, (i think i can say that since the year is about half over). Cant wait to see these guys at Pitchfork. The album was recorded in a small church, and the sound certainly matches the setting. My favorites are Two Weeks (backing vocals by Beach House s Victoria LeGrand), Cheerleader, While You Wait For The Others, and Southern Point. Enjoy
