HOMEMADE LOFI PSYCH --- WHERE TO START?





"There is so much great music here..." WHERE TO START???

I recommend to
start with the HLFP-Samplers (especially HLFP 04).
Here you will come to know many of the bands/musicians featured in this blog. If you like what you hear, you may check out more of their music later on.
(You may also click on the picture on the sidebar and you will find the original post with download links.)

There is also a "FOCUS ON..." section. Here you will find albums that imo are absolutely great (***** = "five-stars-recordings") and that are essential listening and strongly recommended for download.


I TRY to RE-UP some stuff that has been down from time to

time, but I still don't have enough time to

listen to/post much new stuff.

Sorry!

IMPRESSUM: see here!

Golden Boots - Coyote Deathbed Surprize/EV (USA 2008)


Cover from GOLDEN BOOT's 2008 vinyl release

"GOLDEN BOOTS is an alt-alt country band from the American Southwest 
(m-f: Tucson, Arizona, USA), home to open spaces, Roy Rogers, and the Hydrogen Bomb. We've been around for seven years, the first four years can be summed up by two suitcases overflowing with strings of primitive lo-fi four track tapes and a handful of performances shifting around a hodgepodge of instruments.
Me (= Dimitri Manos) and the other 'boot' Ryan Eggleston met after a pancake breakfast in 2001 and decided to embark on a song writing screed that culminated in the first collection of recordings ambitiously entitled 'Super Gold'..." (info by D. M.)

Some of their tracks (like "Ancient Buried City" or  "Ghost Machine") do in fact remind me of the good ol' CHARLATANS, others (like e.g. "Days are Night") even of the FLAMING LIPS, especially the singing voice... Anyway: well worth a listen, very talented guys with some sort of special humor...

Their "Coyote Deathbed Surprize/EV" vinyl LP, released by Olympia, WA based People in a Position to Know Records in very limited quantities, features a color swirled side A playing from the middle of the record out and a double grooved side B (like the Monty Python "three-sided record").

"Their warped and fractured mixture of psychedelic rock, folk and country has drawn comparisons to ALEX CHILTON, THE INTERNATIONAL SUBMARINE BAND, BECK, and THE MONKEES."

Enjoy!
