I haven't heard any of the music yet but I'm really enjoying the album covers.

Well, there is a bulldozer outside my window and an arab guy sitting across the room from me, but I'm pretty sure I'm not. I'll try to sample this sweet indiepop goodness again later.

What should I start with? After the Peel project, I have limited hd space these days... Anything quirky but not twee?

Most people would disagree. What's so bad about Ogg Vorbis?

He means worst name for a format ever.

OGG is somewhere between RAR and Betamax on the "Superior" But Unpopular Format Annoy-O-Meter.

Obligatory "You down with OGG?" reference.

I'm really enjoying Her Highness and Tiny Creatures - thanks! I really don't see how it can be called pop though (Her Highness's voice seems best likened to Mutsumi Kanamori from Mu).

Just out of interest Klang, what was this 'Peel project' that consumed all your hard drive space?

I imagine klang is referring to this.

Oh no, my wife is going to love this...

Listening to Tiny Creatures is like listening to an intelligent ant colony expatiate upon predicate calculus, Harlequin romances, sour gum balls, the infield fly rule, Ikea furniture, Debussy, and Encyclopedia Brown books.

Nailed it in one!

after listening to about half the albums on here, i must say again how good this is. almost as good as this (which, incidentally, has been updated since it was posted).
