Live mix from Red Box Recorder
A friend who goes under the name Red Box Recorder did a live mix last Friday and I’ve decided to host it here for your enjoyment. It’s 22 minutes long and contains music from him, most of which I didn’t recognise. Give it a listen!

Fleet Foxes: Un concert a emporter
The Fleet Foxes play Sun Giant and Blue Ridge Mountains in an abandoned wing of the Grand Palais, Paris. Recorded in May 2008.
Slightly dodgy camera-work (did the cameraman really need to stand so close to them?) made up for by the music itself.

Don’t do this.
There’s a special place in hell reserved for people who take the complete piss at gigs by doing things like this:

Radiohead – Nude (Live at 93 Feet East, London, 2008-01-16)
Well handled by Thom, though, I must say. Reminds me of the Autechre bootleg, Live @ Lees Palace (2008-04-12), a fantastic bootleg in quality and setlist, almost ruined by some stupid bitch who keeps screaming and talking in the left channel… Or the drunken idiots who kept coming up to the bootlegger at Aphex’s 2008 Oxegen Festival gig.
It’s more excusable in the last two cases, but even so — what do you go to a gig for? To experience, enjoy and dance to the music? Or to scream into your poor, resentful friends’ ears any banal shit that comes into your thick head?

Bootleggin’
Thanks to Padraig for bringing this to my attention: a page full of bootlegs of mainly experimental electrinica artists (Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, Murcof, Björk and Autechre, to name a few), with a few odd ones (Fugazi, for one) thrown in for good measure.
The legality of this page is questionable, especially since it hosts Boards of Canada’s rare “A Few Old Tunes”, so get on it before it disappears.
