“Exit Twilight” is the hypnotic final track from Portland “bedroom wanderer” Ilyas Ahmed‘s new album, featuring haunting vocals from the inimitable Liz Harris:

You have no idea how much you ahve made my day with the link to the reverend Green tour blog.
I know everyone is trying to be down with what has now alarmingly become retro: the cassette. But this Dirty Projectors one has got it all wrong. Anyone who can remember knows that this type of cover with a clear case would have contained a black cassette. Back when the cassettes were still white, the cases weren't all clear, but had a black backing.
Just saying.
