When we're not reading Goodnight Moon to the tomato plants, we're often looking at some cool stuff about music online.
- Heading out to see (or hemming and hawing about) the Neon Marshmallow Fest at the Empty Bottle this weekend? Our intrepid experimental music lover Chris Sienko has the breakdown of the best of the fest. (Look for our epic reviews this weekend.)
- I added a great music-oriented Kickstarter project to the Gapers Block curated page this week — help a local musician record on wax cylinders!
- DJ Chrissy Murderbot (aka Chris Shively) is selling his record collection (or most of it, anyway).
- You won't be able to get any Numero Group titles in the iCloud — they explain why they're opting out.
- Wilco's the featured band on All Songs Considered.
- Video from White Mystery's performance at the MCA.
- If you got all teary watching the very last episode of The Chicago Code and want to relive it, check out the song that was playing by Parlours called "I Dream of Chicago." The band plays at Martyrs' on June 18. (Thanks, John!)
- Video from Thao & Mirah at Do Division Fest last weekend. Oh my, remember when it was all sunny and hot? Seems like so long ago.
- The Bitter Tears were on 848 back in April. Listen again, for the first time.
- saki records is celebrating their first birthday next weekend (June 17-19) not only with three days of in-store performances but with deals and giveaways to boot! Details in their blog.
- Pitchfork: The Movie? If this was posted April 1 and not June 9 I'd be suspect.
- Check out these rad flyers from Detroit's '90s techno scene. (via)
