The Ruby Suns – There Are Birds
The second part of this charming series has arrived as of this morning. Another ten quality tracks from independent artists, only this time I’m already a fan of several of them – so it shouldn’t have come as that much of a surprise when I was told that I was the first one to buy it. Once again, the compilation is a mere €4.50 (cheaper than a pint, I think you’ll find) and apart from being carefully and lovingly put together, the money goes directly into the pockets of the artists. Should you need any further incentive, just listen to the above track – I think that’ll clinch it.

I’m just after finding this accidentally, but it’s a nice little collection of cool artists like Galaxie 500, Bowie, Joy Division, Yo La Tengo, etc. and can be streamed online here.

I am delighted to discover a new music blog instantly deserving of your attention. My mixtape-mate sammyg123 now has his own space where you can download his mixes on a daily basis – and believe me, the man knows his music and each mix is worth savouring. For instance, when I merely gave the Elephant 6 collective a mention recently, Sammy has the whole covered in a fantastic mix – from which the above track is taken from. Head over to Sammy’s Tunes for the download.
