wowowow, it’s been a long time since i last uploaded any songs for you! it’s pretty much summer here, with the odd rainy day and huge gust of wind. been listening to alot of cheery sweet summer’esque tunes, maybe you’ll like them too.
PS. if you haven’t heard of the west coast pop art experimental band (dammit, i wrote their name wrong in the image above, tooo many words), go download loads of their music, or better yet, go to this site and buy! soooo great, and they are definitely a huge part of my favourite summer listenings. xo and enjoy the summer sun!

photos from the ANDREW BIRD show at dream factory. frankly, not one of the best shows I’ve been to, mostly due to the crappy sound situation at dream factory, as well as the general layout of the venue. when that place gets packed, it’s a miserable time, anyone not standing within a couple feet of the stage can’t see anything except for the tall assholes in front of them, which leads to alot of chatter and general sounds of revelry from the back. still, i had a good time, i stood on the wings of the stage for a while and he really is a great performer, as well as an excellent whistler. yay!

stoked to see that my friends at SPLITWORKS are bringing more awesome Canadian bands to China! HOLLERADO are doing an insane 14 city tour across the PRC and they’ve even organized a chinese site to generate more buzz. they play this SUNDAY at YUYINTANG. see you there!
ps. also stoked that the GREAT LAKE SWIMMERS are gonna be rolling by in january. yay, canada!

settling fairly quickly into a winter rhythm, cold weather means bundling up and more time spent in the kitchen and in the bedroom. the fog is upon us this afternoon (peep the view out the w+k windows) and all i wanna do is crawl under the covers. made a new mix, full of warm & fuzzy!

so we flew back from beijing early on saturday after the monster SOURCE party and slept for a couple of hours before going to see the fucking yuyintang. even though we were super tired, i was SO GLAD we went, those dudes rocked super hard and stage dived and sweat their asses off and it was one of the best shows i’ve been to in what feels like ages. i also managed to get a sweet spot up on stage, so it helped that i didn’t get trampled in that sweaty, crazy, dancing crowd.
thanks SPLITWORKS for yet another awesome gig. check out more handsome furs photos HERE ON MY FLICKR.
