Andy the Doorbum – The Soundtrack of Human Desolation

Andy The Doorbum is the moniker of Andy Fenstermaker, who earned his handle as the 7-night-a-week bouncer at the famously seedy Milestone Club in Charlotte NC. And like the dirty, boarded-up, crack-addled population surrounding the Milestore Club, such is the imaginative landscape of Andy the Doorbum’s music.

Shouts of Joy continues exactly where its predecessor, the “Back Home” EP, has left off after staying at #1 of the German Alternative Charts for a full eight weeks. Being a big “Thank You” to the fans both lyrically and musically, Shouts Of Joy is sometimes quite reminiscent of ’80s Tears For Fears harmonies, yet modern, danceable and somehow brute at the same time. Be careful – it might infest…

Blithe Field “Warm Blood” Vinyle 12′ / Out April 12th on Poulpe Mort Records.

Blithe Field puts forward the white voice of childhood and the misty layers of a late afternoon drawing out. The songs are brief, there’s the urgency of great dreams but also of doing well. “Warm Blood” is a collection of folding travel hymns to take away, landscapes visible to one’s eyes shut that make you wanna stretch out and stare.
