What’s tickling our earbuds in July – part 1

By / July 21, 2011
Before TOW heads off on holiday on Saturday here’s a run down of the aural delights that have got us hooked this passed month. Yes, it’s lazy not to do individual postings but there’s just TOO much good stuff out there! So wrap your ears around this very random list of newbies who’ve sent us a note in recent weeks… Then we’ll be shutting up shop until The Other Woman Podcast goes to The Big Chill festival 5-7 August, for our show on Big Chill FM. Can’t wait!

Shonen Knife – Perfect Freedom

New from these Osaka rockers from their album Osaka Ramones. Infectious, glorious pop-punk from these girls, they never let you down!

Mary Ocher – On The Streets Of Hard Labour

Thanks to Skopjemusic for the tip off on this one… she’s like a Soviet Kate Bush with splashes of the brilliant Frida Hyvonen, this punk/folk poetess used to front Mary and the Baby Cheeses but is now solo.


Micropixie – Alice in Stevie Wonderland

  

Micropixie dropped us a line about her new cover of Sinead O’Connor’s Sounds So Different, which you can hear and buy here, but we liked this little mini mix of her debut album Alice In Stevie Wonderland on Soundcloud too… She says of herself: ‘Made in Bombay, born & raised in the UK, and based in SF-Oh!, Micropixie aka MPX is the extra-terrestrial alter ego of writer, fillum-maker and fulltime human being, Single Beige Female.’
