Cool, will give it a go. Have you heard of Koop? Top, top band. They have a new album coming out soon as well.

I saw Four Tet "live" last year. It was pretty shocking, but I guess he is always going to struggle for a live show. Kid Koala was there as well, mixing four decks with no headphones. It was unreal.

The most disappointing concert I've seen was probably Thievery Corp. around the time of The Mirror Conspiracy. They had a crap MC and just played their musics with very little changes in an outdoor music festival. Completely out of place.

I imagine four tet could only work in a seated show with some psychedelic VJing going on in the background. Haven't seen him live, though.

Edit - Jarabe de Palo? 😞 Have to agree with Seitse there...

Todo no parece bonito para ti?

To be honest, I saw this video () while queueing in a bank in La Paz, Bolivia and loved it.

I see...It's the memories, not the music. I can relate. 🙂

A couple of good Australian bands well worth a listen to are Eskimo Joe and Thirsty Merc. Great music!

Feels by Animal Collective. Get this, listen to it repeatedly, be slightly sick, but very happy. (like how you get after eating too much candy floss)

Very slim chance, but one of your ozzies might know.

I heard this band at Mardi Grass in Nimbin in 2003. They were brilliant. Female lead singer, nice chilled jazzy sound. The rest is kind of sketchy.

What is the name of the band? 😀
