SummersRadio™ Best Of 2010! Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse Feat. Gruff Rhys!

SummersRadio™ Best Of 2010! Danger Mouse & Sparklehorse Featuring Gruff Rhys - 'Just War' After much delay the collaboration between Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse - called 'present Dark Night Of The Soul' finally saw light of day with a proper release in July of this year. Delays were apparently caused by a legal dispute between EMI and Danger Mouse - but then tragically in March Mark Linkous - the leader of Sparklehorse - committed suicide so he never got to see it released. Sad indeed but the gift left behind is a masterpiece so I will feature several tracks from it - the album is an indie rock lovers paradise featuring collaborations with legends such as Frank Black and Iggy Pop. While we may not have achieved world peace this holiday season there's still next year... this is 'Just War' featuring Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals and Neon Neon - the song is accompanied by fitting visuals from a 1983 Soviet anti-war film called 'Konflict' by Garri Bardin - Enjoy!

SummersRadio™ Best Of 2010! Tony Da Gatorra vs. Gruff Rhys!

SummersRadio™ Best Of 2010! Tony Da Gatorra vs. Gruff Rhys - 'In A House With No Mirrors (You'll Never Get Old)' On July 26th in the U.K. Gruff Rhys of Super Furry Animals - and more recently Neon Neon - fame released another side project under the guise 'Tony Da Gatorra vs. Gruff Rhys' with a brilliantly titled album called 'The Terror Of Cosmic Loneliness'. Apparently Tony Da Gatorra is a Brazilian tv & vcr repairman who has fashioned his own instrument in the form of a 'Gatorra' - a cross between a guitar and a drum machine - I'm not making this up! I first posted this (via the FB group) on it's day of release - which was coincidentally the day before my birthday... it rocks - and I found it comforting! :) Enjoy!
