The Vienna Noise Choir - "Dreaming Collective(ly)"

Here's our first look at a new My Idea of Fun project called The Vienna Noise Choir, you might recognize the track from the #2 album of 2010, The One and Only Matt Miller (and Friends) Present(s) The Vienna Noise Choir in Mid-Fi™ which, if you haven't already picked up, I strongly suggest that you get on that. Looks like this is the first track from yet another MIoF full length that's being worked on right now. Excited to see what comes from this one.

Higher Fives - "All Inferno All the Time"

  All Inferno All the Time by Higher Fives

New recording from Higher Fives, this one comes from the same sessions as that "Motown and Gomorrah" track from the Early 2011 Mix. Check both of those out on their Soundcloud and then go see them next Friday at the show below.

Video: Higher Fives and Technological Epidemic

Here are two videos from this show last week in Pittsburgh, the first is from Higher Fives and the next is Technological Epidemic. Then head over to My Idea of Fun 101, there are videos of The Hit and Miss Engines and Emmett and Mary from the same show.

In anticipation of what's shaping up to be a rather productive 2011 for Johnstown, Pennsylvania's The Sunflower Spectacle, they've made a Bandcamp page to share with you their two past releases.

Go to The Sunflower Spectacle's Bandcamp page for free downloads of their 2009 self-titled full length and their 2008 Christmas record It's Christmas...Don't Be So Sad.

Here are a few tracks from S/T:







...and just in time for tomorrow's festivities, here's a fitting track from It's Christmas...Don't Be So Sad:




Keep your ear to the ground for what these guys have coming up in the next few months, here's a taste of what's going on behind closed doors:

Matt Miller - Untitled - Music from Entitled by Bret Sarlouis

Recently Matt Miller composed a play score for a DIY play called "Entitled" by Brett Sarlouis, through (un)apologetic productions. While the play is long passed, there remains a studio version of the score that you can download for free on My Idea of Fun.

I've been told that the score is a great accompaniment for anyone who had the chance to see the performance. I unfortunately did not, however I will say the score stands very well on it's own, filled with idealized aspiration and inevitable heartbreak.

Here's a track from the score called "Untitled" this one has a more traditional song composition.

Download the release on My Idea of Fun and get The One and Only Matt Miller (and Friends) Present(s) The Vienna Noise Choir in Mid-Fi™ while you're at it.

Here's two tracks off of that, too.
