It’s been several months since we’ve done a Forkast update. There are two main reasons for this. The first is, you know, who cares anyway? You have plenty of stuff to listen to without this. The second reason is that the Fork has been posting a lot fewer actual mp3s lately. They’re posting lots of videos and iMeem streams, but the mp3s have been few and far between. Here are the good ones.
• Matthew Dear – “Pom Pom” [fr0k]
• Throw Me the Statue – “Lolita” from Moonbeams. [fr0k]
• Augie March – “There is No Such Place” (acoustic version) from Moo, You Bloody Choir. [fr0k]
• Soulsavers – “Through My Sails” (Neil Young cover featuring Mark Lanegan and Will Oldham) from It’s Not How Far You Fall, It’s the Way You Land. [fr0k]
• Schooner – “Carrboro” from Hold on Too Tight. [fr0k]
A bunch more after the jump, including Kanye West, Radiohead, Chris Walla, and Lou Reed…
Another round of mp3s featured on Forkast recently…
• Happy Mondays – “Jelly Bean” [fr0k]
• Arthur & Yu – “Come to View (A Song for Neil Young)” from In Camera; due June 19 on Hardly Art [fr0k]
• The New Pornographers – “My Rights Versus Yours” from Challengers, due August 21 on Matador [fr0k]
• Kanye West – “Young Folks” from Can’t Tell Me Nothing mixtape. Yes, it is exactly what you fear it is… [fr0k]
• Okkervil River – “Our Life Is Not a Movie or Maybe”from Stage Names due August 7 on Jagjaguwar [fr0k]
A couple more after the jump…
Anybody else notice that Forkast has recently become skimpier with the mp3s? They’ve been pointing to a lot more imeem streams than mp3 downloads.
Maybe that’s fine. I rarely keep free mp3s from the web; I play them once or twice, and if I really like it I’ll either buy or download the album. Unless it’s something that I know I’m only going to like the single, like “Crazy” or “Ring the Alarm” or “Young Folks.” So maybe streaming is okay as long as we’re always on the internet (which we are).
Anyway, some recent good stuff from Forkast after the jump…
