While we anxiously await that promised new material from Burial, this will do just fine: the great Pinglewood posted this mournful, eerily affecting cover of Burial's "Archangel," by London's Alessio Natalizia, aka Banjo or Freakout. Highly recommended: mp3: **********************************************

Love Is All have a new LP called A Hundred Things Keep Me Up At Night coming out in November. You can pre-order it here now, and you'll get a free 7" and accompanying immediate digital download, featuring lead single"Wishing Well," and the band's maybe slightly gimmicky but still totally rad cover of Faith No More's "Epic"...

It's been a slow week, so I feel fairly comfortable saying this recording of some little Ugandan kids covering Bjork's "All is Full of Love" is the best thing you'll hear all day. Listen at Bitone's myspace. The song is part of an album to benefit the Bitone Children's Home, and the whole record was recorded with a laptop and one microphone in the center's living room...

...for a Lincoln commercial? Recorded in June by Chan and crew. Not bad, but I think my favorite version of Bowie's "Space Oddity" will always remain Langley Schools Music Project's heartbreaking rendition. (via the pharmacist) ***************************************
