It&#8217;s the &#8220;is this going to be rubbish?&#8221; moment, and it&#8217;s outcome is either you will spend the next 10 minutes of your life listening to the promo, or doing something vastly more satisfying, like making tea (unlike other things in life, tea never [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I found a really nice (and exceedingly rare) interview with David Alvarado today. What strikes me the most about David Alvarado&#8217;s output is the quality of his albums. Specifically Mayasongs on Peacefrog (2002), the Sunkiss album (with Kenneth Graham) Unfiltered Sky on Plastic City (1998) and the Transfiguration album on NRK (2004). That&#8217;s not to say he has been slacking on the [...]]]></description>

Introduced through a mutual friend, a similar partiality to certain musical strains transpired between us. I was genuinely surprised then to find out at a later date Mike was constructing a pop album under his B-Movie Lightning moniker. I was surprised even [...]]]></description>
