[Music] The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band – Transparent Day
The West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band were an American psychedelic rock band out of Los Angeles, California, who made some of the best music of the era in my opinion.
[Literature/Art] Alvin Langdon Coburn: Vortograph of Ezra Pound (1917)
Love him or hate him (and I love his work), Ezra Pound turned literature on its head for most of the first half of the 20th Century. Here he is as a model for an experimental photograph by Alvin Langdon Coburn.
[Literature] Improved relations means American supplies for new conservation facility for Hemingway possessions in Cuba — National Post – Top Stories
HAVANA — Just before noon outside Ernest Hemingway’s Havana estate, a metallic screech cut through the chirping of tropical birds and the sound of a live band entertaining tourists. An American worker pulled open one door of a 12-metre shipping container. A Cuban worker pulled open the other. Out spilled treasure: box after box of…
[Music] OF RINGS AND SWEDES — VINYL CONNECTION
How to approach Bo Hansson’s Lord of the Rings? Having played it so often over many decades, the chances of this reviewer listening dispassionately are about the same as Gollum opening a secondhand jewellery store. It must be said that not everyone likes the Swedish keyboard player’s album. In its early days, MOJO: The Music Magazine […]
[Music] Silber Records: New Post Punk & Experimental Pop from M is We & Bronze Eye
New releases from our friends at Silber Records:
Hello,
Hope all is going well with you. As mentioned last time the increased feeling of financial stability (if not actual stability) has created a dramatic increase in productivity here at Silber. The new releases from a couple weeks ago (Chvad SB, Yellow6, & Anda Volley) seem to be getting some attention & that makes it feel like the label is thriving instead of declining. The weather is hot & the days are long, but things seem good & promising & the future seems unstoppable.
M is We is back with us for an entry in the 5in5 series. Post punk & proto goth somewhere between Christian Death, The Germs, & Cabaret Voltaire. Good stuff & only 5 minutes to check out.

Bronze Eye & LD Beghtol collaborated for a 5 minute EP of experimental pop music. I’m pretty stoked about this EP because the two of them got together because of LD’s 5in5 last year. Helping artists discover each other & work together has been a goal of Silber from the start, so this is awesome for us.
