icarus syndrome - Pie Rhymes

I was gonna wait for Mark to post this on the You're Sitting On It blogspot, but I already had this uploaded a while ago. I understand that Andy recorded this cassette right after working at a group home for the developmentally disabled. The imagery in the lyrics invokes thoughts of waking up in an embryo woven from the fabric of dreams. Thanks to Paul Kim for the sweet digital copy of this.

M. Pyres-Used To Sail

Good friend Matt Sage, the mastermind of M. Pyres, forwarded me this sweet compilation of unreleased M. Pyres material that he put together for this blog. I have to say that this some of my favorite M. Pyres music to date. I'm particularly partial to the song "Radar Dust." Matt tells me he used to sail a sunfish boat as a youngster (hence the title) and talked of how that played a part in his music over the years. There are definitely some dream coated seaworthy sounds on this mostly instrumental experience. There is also a beautiful collaboration here with Sterile Garden, experimental Colorado musician (expect more from him on this blog in the future). Sail Away.
