Some American Radio 2/15/2010
Aaaaaand we’re back. After a two-week hiatus due to the preposterous weather conditions in the D.C. area, the Some American crew (minus one Sean) returns for some more music and bickering. Sadly, Jamie acts solely as a talking head this week without any music to share. She has good reason though, as we’ve just relocated the podcast HQ to a new house that is (still) without internet. With any luck, everything will be back to business as usual by next week. Until then, an hour of our nonsense will have to suffice.

new mux mool - “lady linda”
As any listener of Some American Radio will know, there are those of us here who enjoy music of a more electronic variety, and then there is me… who doesn’t. But it is a criminal fallacy to believe that I thus hate all electronic music, as every so often a song or an artist will capture my attention and cause me to reconsider trusted formula of music listening: keyboard/machines = bad. Mux Mool is one such artist.
Mr. Mool, neé Brian Lindgren of Minnesota, brings a nerdish disposition toward collecting, working feverishly and continuously collecting bits and pieces to weave seamlessly into his creations. “Lady Linda”, the first single from his upcoming full-length debut, Skulltaste (March 23 on Ghostly International), is measured and unhurried, full of soft, vintage tones, and injected with eerie, even alien sounds and “melodies”, and rounded off by a wave of lush strings that pulls it all in from the outer reaches. A crisp break-beat, a subdued air, some odd touches, and a varied trajectory: it’s not that hard to make me like an electronic track, friends.
