hexachordal is the YouTube channel of Tom Milsom, an English boy who dislikes the typeface Helvetica, covers and composes 8-bit music and songs for the ukelele. He verbalises OMG as “omguh.” And has a zine. Confused? Don’t be. Just watch and let the anxiety melt away… (Tom’s 8-bit cover of The Magnetic Fields‘ All My [...]

There’s something about repetition in a name or phrase that sucks me in. Luckily so, because otherwise I might not have bothered to listen to Boys Boys Boys! (and that would have been regrettable).

I admit to having a big electro-crush on Yelle. With a bubblegum-synth sound and a tongue-in-cheek range of 80s outfits to match, she certainly deserves her stage name (the feminised form of an acronym for “You Enjoy Life”).

I don’t know if it’s just me but I feel that the musical side of this blog is tending toward electro-indie.

Looks like Radiohead really has set a trend. Girl talk are releasing their album (Feed the Animals) over the internet with the ‘pay what you want’ scheme that Radiohead pioneered.
