Students for Scarves and Charm

there is no sound, it's only noise

This week's Students for Scarves and Charm features new and forthcoming releases from Shrag, Spectrals and Eux Autres amongst others and classic indie pop from the likes of Life Without Buildings and The Slits. We're also treated from an impromptu and swooping visit from the show's producer, Pernilla.

I also introduced a new feature to the show, Wish I'd Kept A Scrapbook. Each week I will be choosing a song that I consider to be a perfect moment in pop music and cherishing it in an aural scrapbook. The first song is 'Superboy and Supergirl' by much loved indie pop band Tullycraft.

This week Unsigned Act is Bake Sale who evoke the dreamy pop of Au Revoir Simone and the mysterious and tragic girlhood and hazy summer nights of The Virgin Suicides. You can download a free EP by them here: http://doublephantomdigital.bandcamp.com/album/the-alice-ep (Which is actually called The Alice EP, not I Left My Heart In Memphis. My bad.) and visit their myspace here: http://www.myspace.com/bakesalememphis .

You can download 'Go Dancing', a free and legal download from Eux Autres' forthcoming album, Broken Bow here: http://www.largeheartedboy.com/blog/archive/2010/10/daily_downloads_2429.html and 'Chip A Tooth (Spoil A Smile) from Spectrals' new Extended Play Ep plus some older but still awesome tracks by him here: http://pitchfork.com/forkcast/14956-chip-a-tooth-spoil-a-smile/ .

See you next week,
