Deaf Indie Elephants

My current obsession is Low, I wake up, drive, concentrate and sleep with Drums & Guns constantly playing. Now for my pleasure I realized Pitchfork.tv has made available in its “One Ween Only” section the new band’s documentary You May Need a Murderer which I watched

So, I did a little research and found a download of 6 bonus tracks from the DVD including a minimalist version of Pretty People and an acoustic cover of I Started a Joke (which is available to download at bottom)

Tengo una obsesión con Low, me levanto, manejo, concentro, me acuesto con el Drums & Guns (y eso que lo llegué a escuchar tarde… y aceptar hasta no hace mucho) y por si ya eso no fuese suficiente, Pitchfork.tv tiene por esta semana en su sección One Week Only, el nuevo documental de la banda You May Need a Murderer, el cual lo vi completico

Haciendo research veo que por los caminos verdes está disponible una descarga de unos bonus tracks de ese documental, 6 canciones que no pasan en conjunto los 12 minutos, desde una íntima y minimalista Pretty People a una acústica versión de I started a joke (el cual se los dejo para descarga)

Low - I Started a Joke

Hello friends,

I’ve had a little conversation by email with Michael Toland – Manager of National Productions at KLRU-TV in Austin, Texas - that’s the station that produces Austin City Limits.

We talked about posting unauthorized files from the shows and one of my questions was if they were considering the release of these performances on DVD.

He explained to me that even though they want to see all the shows come out on DVD and CD, it’s a matter of their distribution partner New West Records and the artists coming to an agreement.

For that reason he proposed and encouraged to spread the word that if fans want to see certain shows on DVD, they should e-mail New West at clare@newwestrecords.com and let them know which artists they want as part of the Live From Austin TX line.

New West is keeping a talley.

Well, that’s it. Just wanted to share and spread the word about this. If you check the DVD and CD catalog of ACL’s series is very poor, and as a matter of fact I DO like to see/have Wilco, Arcade Fire, Calexico, Sufjan among others ACL’s shows on DVD and CD.

So, let’s take this opportunity.

Feel free to distribute this information as you wish.

Thanks for the attention.
