This week, we'll look at the tension created when fashion comes full circle. As Massive Attack's Tricky points out you have "A dread of the past and fear of the future. You're brand new, You're retro" Finding that singular point for us on the edition of Idyllic Music are Polished Chrome, Return To Mono, Letters In Numbers and Cassettes Won't Listen. I'm Jim Nye.
We'll start with German Electronic Music producer Marc Chrome reveling in 'First Experience'
Hear more Polished Chrome at sine-music.com This is San Francisco-based trio Return To Mono with 'Give Me Something'
Find more at www.myspace.com/returntomono Here is Letters In Numbers with the epic 'Hooked'
Look to myspace.com/lettersnumbers for more We'll close with the decidedly analog Cassettes Won't Listen and 'Paper Float'
Listen to more from Jason Drake pop creations at www.myspace.com/cassetteswontlisten Help support many of the artists you hear on Idyllic Music by buying a song or CD from them. There is also a book corner with where you can browse through 20 great music books including Miles Davis's autobiography and the Trouser Press Guide to Music. And look for all 4 Volumes of The Idyllic Music iMix.
Thanks for listening. I'm Jim Nye.
