The re-release of Sir Pie’s 2001 rock/jazz/hip-hop masterpiece “We Attended Different Schools” will not be available on CD for another few weeks, because of various bugs in the record factory.  But you can already download the album from emusic and itunes (and soon from klicktrack). Check it out now!

In Episode Five, Serene meets Scruffy, the bagpipe player for the world renown Dropkick Murphys. Learn more about bagpipes than you’ll ever expect to hear
without putting on a kilt yourself and having at it. See what item of Road Booty Scruffy chooses to torture the rest of his band with and what deceased celebrities just took the lead in this month’s Death Race 2008.

Also: A new segment “Sounds Unheard” where ala Maxim, Serene reviews albums he hasn’t heard a note of. And enjoy our tribute to Edith Piaf which proves without a ghostly doubt that you CAN have your cake and Edith too. Don’t even ask me what that means.

Two of last year’s greatest releases, Joaquin Esquivel’s “What We Know Of Heaven” and Green’s Restaurant’s “Ekofisfält“, are now available from itunes and emusic.

Biljardakademien’s classic single is available again, now with a bonus previously unreleased live version of “Fallbilder”. More info here!

And Solicium have recorded a whole bunch of great tunes for their forthcoming album. Two of them are now released on the single “Boxes”. Check it out!

So, why aren’t there any new releases? Well, actually, I have a couple of new releases for you but at the moment they are having some trouble at the CD factory. Right now, I have no idea when these errors can be fixed. Be patient!
