OLO RADIO - G47 - BLIND MAN'S COLOUR - COMING HOME - 30/10/08

Our next guest mix comes from BLIND MAN'S COLOUR!
Myspace / Website

"We're a band from the state of Florida, USA. These songs have influenced and meant a lot to us over the years and we wanted to organize them in a way in which they all worked together. Rather than just a bunch of songs, we wanted it to become it's own album. A few of the songs I'm sure no one will have heard before and we're happy to introduce them here, including our own. We hope you can connect to our nostalgic "Coming Home" mix as much as we do!"
- Kyle Wyss (Blind Man's Colour)

'Coming Home' is the full name of this EXCLUSIVE mix given to OLO Radio. Enjoy!

DESIGNING THE NEW OLO WEBSITE

BB: "i cant type out what i wanna say, we'll have to all meet up and discuss it."

DF: "I take it you are going to convey the idea using mime or dance then. are you not even going to try and explain it in writing? if not then no worries, just let it be said that you all hold me back."

All done by J.Nation, S.Jensen, K.Slack, M.Hankins and maybe others?

OLO RADIO - BB29 - JUST HANGING IN THERE - 27/10/08

Bruised and battered by the musical, the splinter group of confused outcasts wonder around in need of help. Dry ice is sprayed on these drinkers as the season's change. When the smoke clears the cast of the musical will save the spineless for the doctor and take the rest down to the lake at night and drown them.

LOOKS GOOD (Merriweather Post Pavilion)

They NEVER fail to surprize me! Below is the cover for 'Merriweather Post Pavilion' the new Animal Collective album! Spooky...it's moving, but not moving. Takes me back to my magic eye days. I'm soo excited about this album..probably more so than any other release before. Knowing 80% of the songs that'll end up on the record i can say this will be one of the greatest albums ever! (ha! another one of my many grand statements. It's true though).

OLO RADIO - G46 - SCHOOL OF LANGUAGE - IF I MANAGED TO COMBINE ALL OF THESE THINGS.. - 17/10/08

Our next guest mix comes from SCHOOL OF LANGUAGE!
Myspace / Website / Facebook

"I've been trying to make records, either on my own or with my brother, for years and years, some of which has been released as Field Music, some as School of Language more recently. Many of the things our records have been compared to are records I don't know or don't like or am just not all that bothered about (I mean, XTC are okay, but...). Here are a few things I've been actively trying to rip off!"
- David Brewis (School Of Language)

'If I managed to combine all of these things on my next record would it be regarded as one of the greatest albums ever or would it still be mostly ignored?' is the full name of this EXCLUSIVE mix given to OLO Radio. Enjoy!
