Photobucket

This track is included in the Dark Was The Night compilation. Along with the other tracks in the ace compilation, You Are The Blood is a cover (Castanets). Laden with thumping electronic beats and hypnotic lyrical intones in between, this 10-minute song is not your usual Sufjan Stevens piece. If you want to listen to other tracks, just visit Dark Was The Night myspace. As mentioned before, each track will be release/stream for a day. Get a move on.

Hi Johayra,

On behalf of 4AD, huge thanks for plugging "Dark Was The Night", the multi-artist charity album benefiting the Red Hot Organization (release dates February 17th US and 16th UK) ... .. we would, however, kindly ask you NOT to post pirated copies of unauthorized individual tracks from the album - or the album itself - on your site (or elsewhere) ... .. aside, of course, from "Knotty Pine" by David Byrne and Dirty Projectors, which is the official preview / promo track and which fans and bloggers are very welcome to host / post / share etc.

Additionally, a series of one-day-only streams are also available on the official, "Dark Was The Night" MySpace page at http://www.myspace.com/darkwasthenight ... .. these are being streamed on a one-track-per-day basis and fans and bloggers are again welcome to link to them on the actual day of each preview stream (only) ... .. although Red Hot and 4AD have asked that people don’t then rip these tracks and continue to host them on their blogs or post them onto file-sharing sites … .. all proceeds / royalties are going to AIDS and HIV projects and research and, understandably, everyone involved in this project is seeking to maximize legitimate sales (and pre-release postings can potentially have a negative impact on that goal).

Following in the wake of the streams , a series of official widgets are also now available at http://www.darkwasthenight.com/getthewidget and fans and bloggers are invited to select up to 3 of their favourite tracks to embed, again using these official widgets exclusively and again with the request that you don’t then rip and post pirated copies ... .. so, as you can see, the selection of pre-release promo tracks now available is very fair to say the least and we would again ask you NOT to leak tracks from this charity album (other than as per the above guidelines).

We do appreciate that you are fans of / are promoting the many artists who have generously donated their time and their songs to this project - and that you are helping to promote this good cause - but Red Hot, 4AD and all of the artists concerned would greatly appreciate your co-operation in removing your links to the files in question.

For info on Red Hot’s 20 years of charitable work and to pre-order a copy of "Dark Was The Night", check-out www.DarkWasTheNight.com .

Thanks Again,

After a listen, first thing you've probably notice about Gin Wigmore is her grating voice oscillating inside your eardrums. With a style that reminiscence me of Ida Maria and Duffy, Gin Wigmore is little by little becoming my next guilty pleasure. This is the kind of songs you listen everytime you plan on being oblivious to the surroundings while attempting to take on a cool hermit poise. LOL. Check her out. +/- Gin Wigmore Gin Wigmore is a distinctive singer/songwriter, whose sound is driven by a startling voice; her delivery succinctly described by a critic as ‘whiskey and dry’ and whose self-penned songs provide a refreshing new take on life as a ’20-something’ and yet relate across the generations.

I picked yesterday The Script debut album which was made available this 8th of November. The Script, an Irish trio band describes their sound as a whole new brand of Celtic Soul, blending hip hop lyrical flow with pop melodiousness, state-of-the-art R'n'B production with anthemic rock dynamics, classic song construction with gritty contemporary narratives. +/- The Script It's got all the emotion and passion you would expect from across the Irish sea, but it is glittering in its modernity, universal in its singalong addictiveness and global in its syncopation, music for the feet, heart and head. Think U2 versus Timbaland, Van Morrison remixed by Teddy Riley. Cos if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me, And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I can be, Thinking maybe you'll come back here to the place that we'd meet, And you'd see me waiting for you on the corner of the street. The Man Who Cant Be Moved We Cry Breakeven Before the Wo...
