Eclectic Mainline 7th September 2011

If you missed any of tonight’s show, but would like to catch up, you can use the BCB listen again feature.

Here’s the video to one of tonight’s tunes, by The War On Drugs:

Like a muppet, I completely forgot to play something from PJ Harvey‘s Mercury Prize winning album Let England Shake.  I’ve not heard all the other shortlisted albums, so I can’t comment on its relative merits, but in its own right, it is an astonishingly good album, as I have said several times since it came out.

Anyway, this is what I did play:

Stateless – “I’m On Fire (Blue Daisy Flammable Mix)” (“I’m On Fire EP”) (Ninja Tune)
Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – “Maniac” (single) (v2)
Monty Adkins – “Etched In Air” (LP – “Fragile.Flicker.Fragment”) (Audiobulb)
Milk Maid – “Dead Wrong” (single) (Fat Cat)
Fruit Bats – “Dolly” (LP – “Tripper”) (Sub Pop)
Slow Club – “You, Earth or Ash” (LP – “Paradise”) (Moshi Moshi)
Martyn – “Masks” (single) (Brainfeeder)
The War On Drugs – “Baby Missiles” (single and LP – “Slave Ambient”) (Secretly Canadian)
King Creosote & Jon Hopkins – “Bats In The Attic” (LP – “Diamond Mine”) (Domino)
Temporal Marauder – “It All Came Rushing Back” (LP – “Temporal Marauder Makes You Feel”) (Spectrum Spools)
Sweet Baboo – “Bounce” (“Girl Undder A Tree EP”) (
Air Afrique – “Randompercussion” (compilation 2xCD – “SM 4”) (Spezialmaterial)
Stephen Malkmus And The Jicks – “Stick Figures In Love” (LP – “MIrror Traffic”) (Domino)
JG Thirlwell – “Ecclesiophobia” (split single with Teho Deardo) (Specula)
