Beat Happening

Label: K Records
Genre: Pop

Two bands in my heavy rotation right now: Beat Happening and Lync. With our late autumn here, until the cold hit this morning, what better songs to celebrate the warmth than those of Beat Happening's "Indian Summer" (and the excellent cover of this song by Spectrum, aka Sonic Boom of Spacemen 3) and Lync's lovely album These Are Not Fall Colors, also on K Records many years ago. Plus, Calvin Johnson, indiedom's Barry White (for the baritone, not the love songs), founder of K Records, member of Beat Happening, the Halo Benders, and Dub Narcotic Sound System, is playing in town tomorrow night with Tender Forever. Sure, some of the offerings below are a crappy 56kbps, but with music this good and already this lo-fi, who cares?

Angel Gone [MP3, 2.9MB, 128kbps]
In Between [MP3, 1.0MB, 56kbps]
Bad Seeds [MP3, 1.3MB, 96kbps]
Bewitched [MP3, 1.2MB, 56kbps]
Cast a Shadow [MP3, 1.0MB, 56kbps]
Left Behind [MP3, 2.0MB, 96kbps]
