[...] Props to nialler9 for sending Blak Thor my way. He played their track ‘Rascal’ in his June podcast which quickly prompted me to find out more about them. There isn’t much in the way of hard facts to be found about the five piece hailing from Georgia, USA. The have recorded 4 EPs to date, two of which (That’s The Thing About Blak Thor & That Is SO Blak Thor) are available on both iTunes and eMusic. ‘Rascal’ can be found on Thats The Thing About Blak Thor and is a hypnotic electronic number with the same sort of quirky factor that Fujiya and Miyagi brought us with Transparent Things.

The original version of Body Baby was featured on the June Nialler9 podcast – which has lots of other great tracks hand picked by The King of the Bloggers himself. We also heard Agency of Bastards from Party Weirdo, who had their 7 inch single release party on the night of this show in The Lower Deck. Very much looking forward to having the Party Weirdo ladies on the show later on in the summer. [...]

Hey Gav
Damn sorry that we missed that gig – hope to catch thinguma*jigsaw before they head back to Norway. I’m sure adebisi shank played a stormer on Saturday as well!
Nialler – radio presenter in chief? Wicked bad.

the lower deck on saturday night was my first experience of thinguma*jigsaw-they played right beside the bar,unamplified and opened with a cover of ‘walking the cow’ by daniel johnston.they could’ve been playing anything and the amount of feeling and immersion in their sound would have been exactly the same.it was the first time i’ve been at a gig in dublin where people shut the fuck up for the entire duration of a set.something very special indeed.
looking forward to downlanding this sucker when i get in.
