Guess these bands! 48 band names have been illustrated into icons by (I am guessing) Cinismo Ilustrado. Have fun and don’t look at the answer key til the end!

In 1969, a 14-year-old Beatle fanatic named Jerry Levitan, armed with a reel-to-reel tape deck, snuck into John Lennon’s hotel room in Toronto and convinced John to do an interview. 38 years later he made a film about it. This film absolutely blows me away.
The monthly mix from Skatterbrain is available for download, with tracks from Pia Fraus, The Radio Dept., Sambassadeur and Felt among others.

I can’t find any clips… but I’m dying to hear even a snippet! This reminds me, must listen to some Clientele albums, perfect for this crazy southern California rainy weather (a contradiction in terms… the end of the world must be near).
alasdair maclean (the clientele) and lupe núñez-fernández (pipas), had started a new band project, amor de dias.
wow! id love to hear it, even if its just an audio clip, ive spent more time than im willing to admit imagining what it might sound like.

The Stylophone Beatbox
I’ve had this Parker Lewis song on repeat the last couple of days because it’s making me all kinds of happy.
A Faulty Chromosome - Little Miracles
I’m liking the sound of this group. In this song they use a beautiful array of instruments to lay down a beat. They use some synths and also sample a few clips of people speaking. The electro type sound that they have with the energetic vocals and beats is such a beautiful combination. Just a relaxing group of tracks that they produce. Experimental groups these days come up with more and more to try.
Hey, listen to this!:
