All music is folk music. I ain't never heard a horse sing a song.

I've been overdosing on the hip-hop and electronic based music in general recently so I've been relaxing with some nice folk and a tea (or three) tonight. I've got a divshare account so I can post tracks without them being big clunky Youtube videos and can give you guys a download. It requires a bit more time and effort per track but seeing as the writing on this blog is lacking in both of those things I'm sure I can manage it. So here's some of the relaxing folk music I was talking about. Click titles for download.

Mountain Goats - Woke Up New


Mason Jennings - The Flood


Mason Jennings - Memphis Tennessee


Joanna Newsom - Bridges and Balloons

Bach

Mmmm

Tasty track dedicated to a tasty drink.

Pogo

Nick Bertke AKA Pogo is a electronic music producer from Austalia, most, if not all his work consists of samples from one film or scene of a film including a quite a few disney and pixar based tracks. His amazing track 'Alice' got a shit load of attention so you may know it. Here are a couple of other really nice tracks, one using Snow White clips and the other using bits from Up which is a personal favourite film of mine and the track is almost as good. You can download a fair few tracks at pogomix.net

Saki

More hip-hop this time from NegroSaki from Florida who really loves his samples. I just stumbled across his soundcloud today, I'm loving his tracks and this picture by him which you can find on his deviantart. He also has a track entirely of Super Smash Bros Brawl sound clips along with Tekken and Final Fantasy remix albums which is pretty damn cool.

Sub Swara

Sub Swara make glitchy dubstep, hip-hop and dancehall with the occasional ethnic drum beat woven in. I heard about these guys a while ago on www.bwompbeats.com which is a great blog well worth checking out. Here are a few of my favourite heavier tracks and a nice picture for you all.

Clappp

More from Japanese hip-hop producer bugseed, I cannot fault this guy's beats, his Bohemian Beatnik LP I posted a while back sounds like Miles Davis with an MPC, if you didn't pick that up get it at his bandcamp. These few tracks are of equal quality, Japan seems to never stop giving us great producers!

B-Ju

Gunpowder, Treason and Plot

Today's the day that we celebrate the foiling of one of the most famous terrorist plots ever by burning oversized dolls of one of the plotters on large fires. Plus there are loads of pretty fireworks! I could post a load of songs related to bonfire night but I can't really think of enough off the top of my head. So instead I'm just going to post a few songs I've been listening to a lot recently. Also we have our first follower that isn't someone I know which is pretty exciting so thanks to Jules for reading and thanks to everyone else reading we are starting to get quite a few hits from outside the UK!

McMash Clan

Heard these guys on a Kanji mix on mixcloud and had little flick through their soundcloud and turns out they are pretty damn good. Do a variety of dancefloor genres and always fun listen and download a few of their tunes below. You may have seeing them before at Glastonbury playing the awesome fiery spider that is the Arcadia stage!
