A Muso's Top Ten - MGMT
Anyone who's listened to our album is not going to pigeonhole us easily, stylistically, Ben Goldwasser of MGMT warned us recently. This might be an accurate enough statement, but it reeks of a challenge if ever we've heard one. To set us off on the right track, the electro-acoustic-bombast-funk duo sent us away with a list of ten tunes that helped them refine their palette. Read more »| 01 Apr 2008 -

A Muso's Top 10: Yeasayer
Given the eclecticism of All Hour Cymbals, it was no surprise that Yeasayer gave us a top ten covering five decades, three continents, million-selling mega-hits, out-of-print odd-jobs, and multiple styles and fashions. It's a myriad list that defies obvious logic; just how we like it. Read more »| 06 Jan 2008 -

A Muso's Top 10: Future Of The Left
Communicating from ""some god-forsaken ferry on the channel"" as he makes his merry way to Belgium to kick off a European tour with Against Me, Andy Falkous from the downright kick-arse FOTL rattles off a list of the albums he's been using to distract him from certain seasickness. Suffice it to say, there's not the slightest whiff of a Decemberists or Modest Mouse tune on this playlist. Read more »| 07 Nov 2007 -
