New on the ‘Nets this Week

Around the internet, what is new around the blogs, top news, and the like…more or less.

~~

• HearYa had a nice post on what to look forward to in 2009, and The Deep Dark Woods right after it!
• Yours Truly is making a splash – well, with my friend E over at das klienicum at least…but seriously check out the Theodore interview here, my new favourite ‘slow as molasses’ (mostly) Americana act.
• Kirkeby Kritikk has some ancient (well not ancient) mp3s from John Darnielle/the Mountain Goats – too bad about the reason for them being released…check it here.
• I am Fuel, You are Friends has a new location and look – check it (and set your bookmarks).
• The Rawking Refuses To Stop! has some feelings on the new Animal Collective and gives us updates on Akron Family – freak folk fans rejoice!

I will leave you today with what will be my eclectic playlist for the afternoon while I switch my music collection from my iMac to my external drive – I always end up having a totally unconnected playlist when moving music, as I see stuff that I haven’t listened to in a while and rediscover small portions of my music collection that have escaped me.  Enjoy some examples of cobweb cleaning at Slowcoustic HQ.

Cobweb mix 2009 includes (and look way down for links);
Goldmund
Mumford and Sons
Mariee Sioux
Pure Horsehair
Adam Selzer
Chad VanGaalen (sorry for quality, but still good, no?)
