Well, I have decided to start up a podcast for the site. It will act as a radio show of sorts for the great music here on the site. Hopefully twice a month I will compile a short podcast of music to give readers a chance to hear more of what they are reading about and maybe catch something that they missed. The obvious aim here is to expand the listener base of the artists featured in the show. I have decided not to host the show with any sort of narration and simply let the show notes, the embedded links, and the music speak for itself.

Read the show notes for each episode in the post that contains them and please note that this is an enhanced aac audio file for playback in iTunes or other compatible player like an iPod and contains links to find out more about the artist you are listening to by clicking the cover art of the music you are hearing in the show. I hope that everyone enjoys the shows and I hope that I can manage to stay under the radar with it to avoid any legal backlash what with this whole crazy world of the internet and digital media.

To subscribe to the show simply add the RSS feed for this page to iTunes or another podcast catcher type program and it should download episodes as they become available. Here is the RSS link to make it easy ( http://www.youdisappear.net/files/blog.xml ) and below you will find the show notes for this episode.

...and please, by all means, let me know what you think of the idea and the show.

Colleen - Colleen Et Les Boîtes À Musique

This album was released by an artist that I am sure you will see more of on these pages in the future as she creates some really beautiful music. This album is seemingly more simplistic in its approach than her other albums but really unique and beautiful all the same. It leaves you with a warm nostalgic sort of a feeling. Imagine a music box that stood up and grew a personality and started making music that you could not imagine such a simple thing creating where layers and layers of plucked metallic and haunting notes ring out into the air and dance around the room. With the first track here you will hear the winding of a music box and it is the perfect introduction the the otherworldly sounds that will follow. Its a unique album that most certainly hear. I have included a song below to give you an idea of what you will find here, it’s my favorite song from the album and one of the more peaceful ones and is called ‘Your Heart Is So Loud.’ I would Imagine this is the sound a heart would make if it were breaking. click through to iTunes or her site for more.
