well, if you're reading this, you might be wondering what i've been up to, but i can't tell you now because i'm busy at work. so you should instead hunt down some tracks by these people:

Deuce from Poland, like crazy wonderful mix of my diamond sky high radical friend Luke Lucky Dragons Fishbeck and the artschool video explosion of Mixel Pixel. Also, he dude is part of what seems to be a rad collective that I would know about if I had time and money to read the Wire.

Kackala from the CZ. Umm, well, five women singing intense a capella covers, I mean, look at the picture fer christsakes - an all girl punk a capella troupe!

Band of Endless Noise also from Poland, who recorded their first album with two of the members of the Magic Carpaithians. Their new album, Riders On the Bikes, has this great sort of Thinking Fellers sounding song called "The Union of Those Driving Slow" and they also play the singing bowl - some psychfolkers took an extremely long walk down bushwick ave and ended up in Warsaw.

And Aktual, also from the CZ, early band of Milan Knizak and the Plastic People of the Universe. "Drop Acid You'll See." Indeed.
