With her heavenly APE debut album WARM ROBOT only a mere few weeks away, New Mexico's neutron nymphet Jen Olive presents part 2 of the album podcast. Jen walks you warmly through such beautiful songs as the seashore seance ALL MY HEADS MEET, the lucid luminescence of WAFFLESONS DREAM and the sugar sad swing of HERE I GO. This is one truly beautiful record that we at APE are very proud of. Captain Andy P himself mixed the music and even contributed percussion and little keyboard dabs in places. WARM ROBOT is released on March 28th but we will be making it available to pre-order before then, with the added bonus of a free download version for the early birds. We'll update you on it all as soon as we can, in the meantime enjoy part 2 of Jens podcast. audio,,latest blogs@weatherbox.co.uk no No http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/12/jen-olive-tells-it-gently-warm-robot-part-1/ http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/12/jen-olive-tells-it-gently-warm-robot-part-1/#comments Wed, 02 Dec 2009 10:43:58 +0000 steve http://apehouse.prevuz.com/?p=459 http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/12/jen-olive-tells-it-gently-warm-robot-part-1/feed/ 3 21:22 APE's latest signing is the jensational JEN OLIVE and by way of introduction to this astounding allegro algorithm from Albuquerque, we present you Jen ... APE's latest signing is the jensational JEN OLIVE and by way of introduction to this astounding allegro algorithm from Albuquerque, we present you Jen in her own words as she takes you on a jentle aural ride through her forthcoming album WARM ROBOT. Its no lie to tell you that everyone who's heard fragments from this truly beautiful record has nothing but immediate love and delight springing from their lips, we think you will too, it's something very special. Join Jen here in part 1, and hear some of the landscape behind the songs ROBOT BOY, WIRE WIRE, SET IT ON FIRE and more. The album will be out in February 2010 but if you cant wait to hear the jewels in the box (and they really are), then listen here for a tour inside the head of the warm robot herself. audio,,latest blogs@weatherbox.co.uk no No http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/11/giddy-pugcast-part-3/ http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/11/giddy-pugcast-part-3/#comments Tue, 17 Nov 2009 15:17:40 +0000 steve http://apehouse.prevuz.com/?p=437 http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/11/giddy-pugcast-part-3/feed/ 2 18:54 Pugwash's Thomas Walsh And Keith Farrell take us through the last of 3 podcasts to conclude their oratory for the last 5 tracks of ...

APES Doctor Doolittle of music mangling, Lighterthief aka Stuart Rowe,has selected,squished and squeezed music and images together to give you a flavour of his latest EP TRICK PICTURE. He's diced the three very different but very marvelous musical pieces into an odd medley and spliced up footage of Lighterthief the band, live and in rehearsal. The aural and visual equivalent of getting a free piece of cheese from a lovely lady in a supermarket. Get yourself over and take a peek,and if you havent heard the music of Lighterthief yet we suggest there is no better way than to download the TRICK PICTURE EP{or its pulsing predecessor MAXIMALISM}and then you'll hear why those already in the know are in the know audio,,latest blogs@weatherbox.co.uk no No http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/09/pugwash-pugcast-part-2/ http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/09/pugwash-pugcast-part-2/#comments Tue, 22 Sep 2009 09:40:40 +0000 steve http://apehouse.prevuz.com/?p=365 http://apehouse.prevuz.com/2009/09/pugwash-pugcast-part-2/feed/ 4 9:23 Listen to part 2 of Pugwash's compelling and amusing insight into the tracks on their new soon to be released compilation Giddy.
