Got the Haints of Dean Hall the other day.

Their latest album is available for free download from arch hill in high quality MP3. Arch Hill has started offering some free albums from their site, this is the second after their 10 year retrospective.

No sound but what a vision.
That made me think of Roy Montgomery's instrumentals so I put on Scenes from the South Island while I watched it. It worked quite nicely.

Or Rhian Sheehan's New Zealand Landscapes. Perfect!

There's an official video, but it includes a graphic (triggering) image of self-harm, and flashes of light. I'd rather not post that version.

Born Free samples legendary NYC duo Suicide, so who does MIA get to play keys on Letterman – Marty Rev of Suicide. Holy heck.

I hadn't met her before yesterday, but she struck me as having an excellent sense of humour.

Yes, and a great face for television, or any other visual media she might care to present herself in. I mean, nicely complements the voice, of course...

Now what were we talking about…

Listening to the new MIA album at the moment. Is it just me, or is it a lot more like Sleigh Bells' "Treats" than it is like any of her earlier work? As in, lots of noise, lots of vocal distortion, giant beats and heavy guitar lines?
