My friend keeps yelling about Nite Jewel.
I should probably check them out.
new track on a forthcoming Alberts Basement tape. Serious.
Anyone know of any touring plans to melbourne?
I love them!
Haven't been able to stop listening to Nite Jewel recently. So good.
they have a gazillion shows coming up, but none in oceania, sadly...
song on the Milky Disco 2 compilation is sweet! definitely gonna check out more.
blinks
how did aB make this happen?
It's lovely stuff, IDIB is pretty much a flawless label. Looking forward to that Albert's Basement comp!
new single out this week on idib (here).
thankfully she's cleaned up her production a little. the overtly lo-fi sound was a wee bit frustrating.
You're just saying that because you love deep house!
ah yes, the production values of deephouse warrants a good chin stroke.
i suppose the low-fi hiss that nite jewel has in her tracks is the tape equivalent to the canned vinyl crackle that jonny jewel adds to all his tracks.
funny, I really like the hissy sounds of her home recorded stuff on MP3, but I got 'What Did He Say' 12 inch on IDIB and admittedly the hiss sound is much more enhanced on vinyl...
'want you back' is gorgeous. like she's channeling arthur russell in parts.
an arthur russell + chris and cosy collaboration.
hey anok where did you pick up the 12'' from? i used buy to idib stuff from hearnow records in the city (i'm assuming you're in Melbourne) but they've shut down. i’m not sure now what non-internet record stores stock this label.
slsk, but I'll buy it from the Internet later. no idea where to shop post-hn
i'm fairly sure there isn't anywhere now...
in the beginning, there were two... glass candy and chromatics
soon, farah joined them. then, desire and nite jewel.
HOW MANY MORE??
Is Glass Candy and Chromatics similar to Nite Jewel?
Everyone go listen to Ariel Pink's Creepshow right now. (It's on Worn Copy)
I think Nite Jewel is closer to stuff like U.S. Girls and such than GC or Chromatics but she definitely still suits being on Italians Do It Better. Tiedye are another recent enough addition to the IDIB roster, doing a really cool cover of Metallica's Nothing Else Matters.
what are you getting at?
anyway, the best thing on IDIB is invisible conga people!
mezabel stocks some of their stuff.. they're local but mailorder only
they still have that tiedye remix of rubies which is a stunner
i THINK round n round records in brunswick had some idib last time i went there but not sure. they have a small section of off kilter disco type stuff worth a look at anyway... picked up some arthur russell and betty botox edits
but yeah. hear now was the best :(
and the italians sleeves look so good on a shelf
did you catch the invisible conga people remix of woolf vs projections on permanent vacation records last year? gold!
thanks shunt, looks like its mailorder/internet then.
agreed, its disappointing that the new 12's have dropped the standardised sleeve
Where's round and round records in brunswick?
On Sydney road.. before A1 but after savers.
yeah, i reckon they'll bring em back though, seems to go back and forth
new video for want you back... there's a baby fox, aw!
oh. this is probably one of the funniest fan clips I have ever seen. so bad! why?
I really like these humans.
dam funk + nite jewe; = nite funk - cute viewing.
I heard that nite jewel might be visiting Australia in March?? Can anyone confirm this here?
yep sounds promising. an album on stones throw is in the
yep sounds promising. an album on stones throw is in the works
way
Mmmm some serious technical difficulties with M&N today
a new ep - am i real?
new stuff is really disappointing. none of the charm of the first release. wha happened?
from this
to this
:/
what did he say it aint, but i quite like it. is there much else floating around?
Not as dreamy for sure. Still ok. Maybe it will a be a slow burner.
Actually, no. Chorus just kicked in. Definitely not a big fan of this newer stuff.
