AMPed Show #554

You're listening to AMT, the official weekly update for the Association of Music Podcasting.

This is AMT, show number 554. I'm your host for this episode, Stuart Morrison from Insomnia Radio.

You're listening to a feed of the Association of Music Podcasting at musicpodcasting.org.

This is AMT, and this is Hefevesent.

AMT, the official weekly update for the Association of Music Podcasting.

and was the submission to Amped by Peter Clitheroe of Suffolk & Cool.

Suffolkandcool.com, of course.

Peter tells us that this is from the album Pondlife Fiasco,

available on Jumendo, which was released way back in 2005

when records went round at 78 RPM and were made of shellac, really.

Hefevescent is essentially the solo project of Lancashire, UK-based Andy Duran.

Writing, performing and producing each track,

Pondlife Fiasco features this track,

which is the most downloaded on the ever-excellent Jumendo label.

You can have the whole album for yourself, for free, at Jumendo.

Hefevescent.com is where to find out more.

Yeah, welcome to Amped.

Nominally show 554, but the numbering isn't really relevant now,

as we've missed so many shows in the last few weeks.

I'd like to make a few announcements and requests

on behalf of the Association of Music Podcasting, Amped.

The podcast, the official weekly update for the Association of Music Podcasting,

or Amped as it's known, is taking a break.

It's the first in many years.

In fact, we aren't sure if we've ever had a hiatus.

Will we be back in the autumn or the fall for our American listeners?

We are incredibly grateful to you for listening

and we really look forward to bringing you more of the best new music on the planet

and to continuing to support independent artists,

the best way to know when we're coming back

is to make sure that you're subscribed to get automatic downloads

through iTunes or any other podcatcher.

I'll give you details at the end of the show.

In addition, you should soon be able to sign up to our inner circle

to get updates on our relaunch progress

and invitations to contribute to the revitalized Amped.

There'll be links on our homepage.

We'll be setting up a mailer for this, a listener mailing list for this,

and of course, we'd like to hear from you by email to webmaster at musicpodcasting.org

or add a comment to this episode.

Go to musicpodcasting.org and find episode 554.

So that's the announcement over.

We're so grateful to you listeners for staying with us

and we'll be back, maybe in the same form, maybe something different.

It's all about the music.

And to that end, here is the next track on this finale of the current Amped season.

I have this and four more tracks to play for you.

All were submitted by Amped members.

The next one comes from Ro Cutler's Dark Compass show, darkcompass.com.

This is Silver Bones with Raiders of the New World.

Raiders of the New World!

I denote a secret base

When all our long journeys end

We keep accumulating gold and silver in our chests

Steal and kill is our way

Blood and force the only law

We live and die by the sword

Like clans against the dark

They shall run for cover

As we're bound in the sea

We stand united

As we're lying in the raging storm

We stand united

With the victors on the loose

compressed air

Left at bay

We're never round again

We're always here

And make noamaan

Ever howl

Long live the day

In Авto 아니에요

Say goodbye

As we're bound in the sea

We stand united

As we ride in the storm

Raiders of the New World

Terror from across the sea

Raiders of the New World

Terror from across the sea

So let me have a fight

Raiders of the New World

That was Silver Bones with Raiders of the New World

with their new album Wild Waves

now out on Storm Spell Records

and a new wind in their sails

this Italian band's flavour of power metal

is a great crowd pleaser

with great tracks for head banging and fist pumping

Starting off the second half of this AMT,

we have another Insomnia Radio track,

this time from The Daily Dose,

which recently reached something of a milestone.

It's a 3,000th daily free track

since we started.

It started in April 2008.

Our official name is Insomnia Radio Indie Music Network,

so I suppose it's fitting that this is a track

by an indie rock band about difficulty sleeping.

This is The Runaway Club with King-Sized Bed.

I, I'd be more comfortable on the floor

Every word I should not have said

I go over them in my head

A joker lies on this here king-sized bed

I, I just can't sleep at night anymore

I, dwell on a joke I told years ago

I, I just can't sleep at night anymore

Every word I should not have said

I go over them in my head

A joker lies on this here king-sized bed

I take nightmares

In prescription chemicals

Counting sheep that don't seem to be working anymore

I take nightmares

In prescription chemicals

Counting sheep that don't seem to be working anymore

The word I should not have said

I go over them in my head

I, I'd be more comfortable on the floor

Every word I should not have said

I, I'd be more comfortable on the floor

Counting sheep that don't seem to be working anymore

I, I just can't sleep at night anymore

The Runaway Club with King-Sized Bed

I, I'd be more comfortable on the floor

of slowing down

release

between the walls

and the worlds that sleep

Nick sent us a track

by the Blazing Rays of the Sun

and it's called

Closer

Closer to you

I wanna get more of what you got

I wanna get more of you

Just, just, just this wish

Just, just, just one kiss

Is all I need to know

Is all I want

Just love, don't think none of it

Just wanna get more of it

What I do for us

What I do, what I do

I would love to get you close

Take the time to take it slow

I need your love

I want just to get you close

To get you, get you

Love me, lead me where you will

I'll follow, fall in gear

Until you leave my love

You want me to get you, get you

Closer, closer to you

I'd better be more than what you got

I wanna be more for you

I wanna be it all

Don't be shy

Don't say

You got things to do

Cause I won't lie anymore

Not, not, not when I tell you

That I wanna get next to you

Next to you

I want love to be

Get you close

Take the time to take it slow

I need your love

I want just to get you, get you

Love me, lead me where you will

I'll follow, fall in gear

Until you leave my love

You want me to get you, get you

Closer, closer to you

Take the time to take it slow

How to get you close

Tell me how to love you

Tell me and I'll know

I just wanna know

Tell me how to love you

Los Angeles-based Blazing Rays of the Sun

just released their first record this year,

and this is the single.

An absolute gem of a track, this, says Nick,

which grows and develops into a beautiful crescendo.

For technical reasons, the show notes for this amp

will list this as my submission, but it's really Nick Tan's.

BlazingRays.com is where to find the band.

And with that, we've come to the end of this amp show.

Here's a reminder of what you heard.

We started with, from the UK, Hefevescent,

Deep Sea Diver, from Italy, Silver Bones,

with Raiders of the New World,

and again from the UK, Boys, with Nice Guys.

Then after the break, Canadian band The Runaway Club

with Kingsized Bed, from Cincinnati,

The Upset Victory with Signals,

and the last track was, from LA band,
