24/09/11 - Amorphous and Noel: hear the first clip!

It seems the Noel Gallagher and Amorphous Androgynous collaboration due next year will feature ten original songs, and three reworkings of tracks from Noel's first solo record, High Flying Birds. The first snippet can now be heard in the form of a 30 second sample of the Amorphous version of new single If I Had a Gun here.

It sounds... like Amorphous with Noel Gallagher, really. No surprises there.

03/09/11 - Cranium Pie on FSOLDigital

Cranium Pie's debut album, Mechanisms Part 1, is available to purchase as a download through FSOLDigital now. As featured at Amorphous shows and on Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble mixes, Cranium Pie provide some psych-prog-craziness, described as "a conceptual debut album [...] set in the radioactive dust of a post apocalyptic mecha-tyranny, involving the fight between simple organisms and machines to keep consciousness from extinction, as well as a sideways study of the insanity of the present day......part 2 due early 2012."
All that for £4.49. Madness.
