Unsigned Manchester Music

Great free music has been fisted forth once again from the Foilface clan. Their second EP is entitled "EP2"(perhaps in homage to the Ronseal approach to naming?) It's no cause for concern though; although the title of this EP may be slightly lacking in imagination, the contents is most certainly not.

A great lyric and melody combo that will hook you in faster than an open day at a brothel comes in the first track, called "Hello Everybody Eyebrows", when these words of advice are forcefully bestowed upon us in typical Foilface style: "Why don't you just colour your hair like Bryan Ferry"!

The free mp3 player is on the homepage, so have a listen online to this first track and you'll see what I'm talking about. As with the first Foilface release - Jean-Claude Naive EP - whole of this second EP is available as free MP3 downloads, or free zip download from the Manchester band's own website. I suggest grabbing these tracks while they're on offer.

Paul Higham is an awesome guitar playing afficianado from the gloomy north. His latest mentalist escapade involves churning out an original guitar tune every day for a year.

The project is called acousticprogress [365] - if you like musical projects that sidestep the conventional toss, you should definitely pop in.

I think this tune is my favourite so far, but it's already hard to pick, so christ knows what the agonising choices will be when the next 353 pieces are thrust forth.

I like this very much - a straightforward listing of the full Glastonbury 2009 lineup with live links to all the bands performing, meaning you can easily see who's playing when & where then just click on the band to suss out their sounds and get more info etc. Jolly good stuff, I say.

I'm not talking about listening to music on the iPhone, I'm talking about tunes actually created using an iPhone - and this timeline music video is by far the best example of iPhone music there is. Seriously, check it out here - I promise you won't be disappointed.

Manchester band Foilface, have now released their first EP "Jean-Claude Naive" on the Whisky Adaptor Records label, and made the whole six track EP available for free download from their web site.

This new music release is due out on CD in the very near future, for sound quality boffins and collectors alike, and all six tracks stand up to the hype, in my opinion. You don't need to download the MP3s to be able to listen to the EP - there's a player right on the front page of the site, so you can check out all the tracks first.

These tracks will only be available free for a limited time, according to the Foilface web site, so grab the free MP3s before they disappear.
