Panda's Hideout!! - # 2.01 Out of Nowhere

hey everyone! it's been awhile... i'm not sure if any of you are still around, but here's a playlist i've put together. sorry... but it doesn't have the usual chitter chatter of mine. hope you guys like it though!

it's the same of junk about finding interesting to talk about, editing, being lazy, and wondering whether or not to start an mp3 blog.

if you guys don't mind downloading some playlists once in a while, come check the blog out from time to time.

hope you're having a great summer!
loves - f. panda

I Guess This Is It

The podcast has been dead for more than a month and I just never find the time...or enough will power to do a show. So I guess this is finally it for Panda's Hideout, after all these days of no action.

Thank you everyone for the support, for listening, the emails, the concerns, the comments, and all those things. Thanks you all fellow podcasters, for the ocassional emails and, not to mention, the brilliant music!

I didn't really want to see this end, I guess that's why I just kept on dragging this along. This seems to be one of the things I have total control over. There aren't a lot of those things in my life.

BUT the love of music in me will never die! and that goes for the passion that i've got for spreading it as well!

I'm actually an trainee/intern for KWUR 90.3 FM rite now! So i guess i jumped off the podcasting boat and hopped onto the radio one. i'm going to start dj-ing in 2nd semester, which should be sometime in january 2007. and i've got a co-host this time, her name's cecelia and yeah it's going to be fun :)

i guess for those who still likes my music can still tune in then! if u can't tune in at that time, i guess i'll put up like playlists files of the stuff i played on the show. we'll see then. i hope i can keep this promise.

so more information when i pass the trainee test and stuff!

till then, stay safe + take care!
love you guys!

from your friend,
fierce panda!

Juana Molina - A Different Kind of Folk

maybe some of you have seen that album cover before, when you were flipping through some albums in the cd store, or maybe some magazine even. but for me, i've spotted that cd in the store that i shop in, but dismissed it as the same kind of folk music i've heard before.

it's certainly not.

i watched her studio performance on KCRW, morning becomes eclectic, for her 3rd album : Son and became totally excited with the music she's making.

stream : audio video (real player needed)

taking on the show by herself, she created some wonderfully-layered music with looped vocals, the plucking of her guitar, and some atmospheric, yet perculiar tunes from her keyboards.

most probably because i'm not a musician myself, i can't help but feel intrigued by the way the performed. she would sample a sequence, and have the synthesizer/whatever tool she uses to repeat that sequence over. and she does that over and over again, until you have this build up of layers, perfectly complimenting each other.

there's this freeness to her music that is just real soothing.

please have a listen to her music. or buy it!

News and Updates

show's going to be updated soon, within this week.

actually. it was Panda's Hideout's 1 year birthday yesterday (June 22) which is nice. i think the show has grown, in format and hopefully flow-age. hahaha

so if you want, i just started another blog, just to write a bit more about myself and what's going through my head. cause this page is about the podcast/music.

but it still has the lame name of panda's hideout. hahaha

Panda's Hideout!! 2006 Summer Mixtape

--Wake Up! Feel the Summer Breeze!--
*it seems like a totally unrelated picture, but it's ( i think) a merch shirt of Little Wings, so there a hint at one artists that's on the tracklist

ain't that exciting?! the list is completed, and everything's done! it's more of a happy-themed cd, so good news to those who rn't that into ambient, kinda sad electronica or whatever. and the file should be up soon. i might try putting up on the feed, but if that doesn't work out, there's always sendspace and yousendit.

yeah so it's going to be an internet cd cuz sam over at monkey love records told me that people can rip the songs onto a cd if they want to do that, but it'll just be more convenient for our Ipod generation. sorry for those who wants the actual cd...

i'm sooo excited about this mixtape and just started working with it even tho only a few contacted me. but it's all good, i'm still real hyped up about this, not sure why because it's kinda similar to a podcast but just no talking and with lots more songs. hope those songs are up to par and won't disappoint anybody.

snatch it right now! at sendspace (81.3 mb in zip)

*the songs are numbered in a particular way, cuz they flow better in that order (in my opinion) so just a heads up

Tracklist

Lullatone - Wake Up Wake Up

Those Translantics - Boys and Children, Sing for Summer

Spring Boutique - So Twee

The Charade - Dressed in Yellow and Blue

Little Wings - Next Time

The Good Goodbyes - Unhinged

About - Strike You as the Enemy

Parenthetical Girls - Love Connection, pt. II

Panda's Hideout!! #38 - Mixtape or No

so for those who like dazed out when i was talking about this, it's all good i understand. but i'll break it down for you hear

does anyone want a panda's hideout mixtape for the summer? in an actual CD or something that i'll put like in a big file online and you'll give grab it urself?

cuz the problem with actual CDs is that you guys'll have to pay like $2-3 US (not sure, but should be appromixate, depends on where u live) through paypal for shipping and packaging, but i guess there'll be people who'll prefer something more personalized. as for an internet CD, it'll be free online where everyone can conveniently access it.

if 10-15 people or more contact me about this, through blog / email, i'll get right at it. in the cds will be exclusive tracks that are never played on the podcast and will never be, an exclusive thing for people who request it :)

so tell me what you think!

ATTENTION!!!!!!!! Panda's Hideout side-project!

because i haven't been great at updating the shows and some of the music i like never gets played on the show (because it's not that catchy or other people have played it before, etc.) i decided that i'll put forth a side-project!

SUBSCRIBE TO

http://feeds.feedburner.com/ph/fiercepanda

to get tunes that i've caught onto. i don't bother to write about the music or keep up with a blog because i'm just too lazy, so hope this works out. and this is more convenient anyways, to download the tunes straight into your computers, rather than having to right click and do 'save-as' and all that junk.

check out the list of songs so far

ALSO IMPORTANT - The music and sound files found on the feed are for sampling purposes only. If you like what you hear go out and support the artist and buy their stuff. If you are the owner of something featured on the feed and would like it removed, please contact me.

Amina Iceland TV Performance

sigur ros came to hong kong for a stop, with amina as their supporting act. but i missed it... then i guess i'll just catch them later, when i go to the states.

for those who haven't seen amina perform before, or have but still want to have a look anyways., here's a 30min video of their performance on an iceland tv show. watch it! it's brilliant!

CLICK

what is amina?
amina is a string quartet comprising four icelandic young women, founded in the summer of 1998. we met in tónlistarskólinn í reykjavík [the music school of reykjavík] and started playing together in 1996. we started doing lots of studio work with all kinds of pop and rock bands because there weren't many string groups taking on that sort of flexible and time-consuming work.

Panda's Hideout!! #31 - Out of It

so thanks for waiting for this long. thanks for all of those who has written to me :) and those who kept on listening.

IMPORTANT NOTE- ahhh man i fucked it up again. if you've listened to the show, you would've heard me thanking a listener called 'lailah'. we've been exchanging few mails back and forth and he never specified that he's a guy, so being oblivious (and stupid) that his name LYLE is a guy's name in the states, i mistook him for a girl. ha ha ha.... so sorry Lyle! and he's really nice about it though, he just emailed me and said that he laughed out loud when i screwed up in pronouncing his name, so that just proves what awesome listeners i have!

here are the shownotes

shelby sifers - things are beautiful

work clothes - super 8

jens lekman- throw your arms around me (direct link from triple j)

beirut - postcards from italy

some funny music- flight of the conchords

Jason over at Panda vs. Koala and Monster in Your Closet wrote about Flight of the Conchords, who are "a folk/pop/comedy duo comprising of Bret McKenzie of The Black Seeds fame and Jemaine Clement of The Humourbeasts". the pair is known as "New Zealand's fourth most popular guitar-based digi-bongo acapella-rap-funk-comedy folk duo"... what a mouthful. but anyway, they are just REALLY funny! so Jason uploaded a set the flight of the conchords did on one night stand on hbo in mp3 format.

You can download the full show / in parts that are put into one bundle. go download them now!

Track listing: 1. Intro 2. Jenny 3. Issues (Speaking) 4. Think About It, Think Think About It 5. Business Time 6. Albi 7. The Hiphopapotamus vs. The Rhymenocerous 8. She's So Hot, Boom!

Survey

I've been browsing through some mp3 blogs and the cd store and found lots of new folky stuff i can play. but i've been wondering, since those shows (folk ones) end up receiving a better response, should i do more of those / just stick to the current format? since i've only got so many shows i can put out each month, i wanna let u guys hear more of what you want. so vote and tell me what you think.

thanks : )

thom york voicing his opinions, hollar for that!

so on nov. 22, thom york posted on the radiohead blog, DEAD AIR SPACE, scorning at the actions of the US government. not that i can blame him...

"so the UN are meeting in Montreal to decide what to do after the Kyoto protocol.

and already the US administration has buried its witless head in the fucking sand.

refusing to take part.

you can even see the strings being pulled.

this is a true evil.

and on tv they are talking about the sahara and how global warming will destroy the lives of the millions who live there soon.

oh and the weather man says how weve got caught out by the extreme snowfall. highly unusual.

cue footage of stranded motorists.
but hey itll be nice for kids.
cue taboganning footage.
(sidenote: somehow this looks like it can be written as lyrics... maybe it's just me...)

and business leaders are meeting tony blair tommorrow to express their concern about gas supplies.fuck business leaders what about the rest of us?

if ever property in the country had solar panels or mini wind turbines, just like it has water supply and a satelltie dish perhaps we wouldnt need new nuclear power stations that we cant afford to please these fucking business leaders.

thm

p.s. please excuse the swearing. im mad."

how cool can that band be?!

well i don't usually do this... but not only do i encourage you guys to purchase records from bands and artists, please help our world out here by being envrionmentally friendly (cuz those super giants out there aren't really willing to do much about it) so turn off your engines when you're waiting down the street, don't leave the air-con on when you leave the house, don't forget about those lights either, don't leave your shower running for minutes, try to recycle stuff, etc. etc. the list can go on in the stuff we can do for our environment and children.
you don't have to turn into tree-huggers, but just consider it and see wat you wanna do from there.

hahah i don't really like to get serious, but i guess it's necessary. hahah

much thanks to the mp3 blog S K A T T E R B R A I N for the heads up in thom york's post.
check out his blog for a mp3 track of Radiohead's. it's a remix of the song talkshow host.

well yah,
later then,
fierce panda!!

i'm going to post soon, just about a japanese improv duo and a track of theirs. dun dun DUN!

PS: anyone can post on the blog now! i actually found that there's the option of letting EVERYONE to post, so yah, if u wanna go right ahead now. comments are always welcomed ; )

hey guys,
sorry to tell u guys that i'm not posting for the week, because of storage problems... well not exactly problems, but yah just not enough memory for me to update another show till the start of next month. it just annoys me that i need to keep on pulling down shows just so to upload another.
umm. it's gonna be some electro stuff next time, so stay tuned. it's gonna be a longer show than usual, not sure by how much tho

sorry about the wait
anyway happy thanksgiving! even tho we don't really celebrate it over here, i get most of this week off! yay!!! and i just got my sat scores back, those r really good news too!

meanwhile, go check out white magic a duo that does psy-folk stuff and released a split ep with the american analog set. i got the ep for free from authur magazine a while back and they don't really have those tracks hosted online... but here's one of their's

white magic - keeping the wolves from the door

not exactly what they did on the split ep, but i guess that's better than nothing.

well have fun for the week guys!

Finniston interview

well steven took his time to answer the questions that i sent him, so great thanks to steven!! here goes:

Q - since on your website, you've mentioned that you and your sister
have taken different musical paths while you were growing up, what
made you guys decide to team up and form finniston?

A – Both my sister and myself have been playing music since we were about four years old. We both played classical piano and violin for years until I discovered rock and grunge music, and Jolene started playing Scottish fiddle tunes. At this point our musical tastes changed quite a bit. I played lead guitar in a couple of bands at school and wrote a few songs, but didn’t start writing stuff properly until I was about 20. Then in 2002 we both found ourselves living in Glasgow one street away from each other and decided to team up and play some music! I then started writing more and more songs and then finniston was born!

Q -what are some of your band's musical influences?

A – These days our musical tastes are pretty similar. I usually end up stealing CDs of new bands that my sister is listening to so we pretty much end up liking the same stuff! My favourite bands at the moment are probably Aberfeldy (a Scottish band), Josh Ritter, and Belle and Sebastian (another Scottish band!). Other influences include Nick Drake, John Martyn, and Ron Sexsmith.

Q -why did you choose to play sort of soft rock, acoustic kind of music?

A – it was never a conscious choice really, I think that most songwriters write stuff that is related to their musical influences in some way, and I’m sure that I’m the same! I prefer to listen to acoustic music so I tend to write the same sort of stuff – never really thought about it before though!

Q -are there any favorites amongst finniston's songs for you? is there any
particular reason behind those choices?

A – I don’t normally admit that I like my own songs! I suppose at the moment I really enjoy playing ‘another love song’. The harmonies are fun and it’s a nice happy song! ‘peace of mind’ is another one I’m liking at the moment. I wrote it after an argument I had with my girlfriend so it’s got a lot of meaning to me!

Q -what are some plans you've got for finniston in the future?

A – Main plan at the moment for us is to get signed! We’ve got some interest from a couple of labels at the moment so fingers crossed! Also we’ve got our new EP coming out at the end of the month which we’re quite excited about. It’ll be available through our website at www.finniston.com, so keep checking for updates on that!

GIVE their songs a LISTEN:
finniston - another love song

NOTE: finniston has their EP coming out in SEPTEMBER so go ahead of grab it if you like that band!!!

also to seth, damien and steff!!! your encouragements kicked ass!! gave me a boost to do my show. hahah but somehow i've shown some slacking off during this show and i kinda have a feeling that laziness will pursue on further. but oh well i'll just compensate that with good choices of music.

Tied and Tickled Trio

gosh it's hot out there, it was raining for a couple of days and now comes the sizzling sun. just great... and the humidity!!
but thank god for air conditioning, so it ain't so bad. well i think i got to get the first round of shows done before Aug 17, cause then i've got to go back to school and things arne't going to be as laid back then. got colleges to plan for ...

jazzy/electonica :
Tied and Tickled Trio
album- Observing Systems
label: Morr Music Recrods
release: 2004
track i got to listen to : the Long Tomorrow

This track emphasizes more on horns and rhythms. I got this description scaruffi.com, it says “The instrumentation is inspired to 1960s cool jazz and jazz-rock, but the solos flow as if hypnotized and the group improvisations is icy as if "digitized".” It says that they play electronic jazz, but this track is more to the jazz side, if not at all.

They are a German group that have band memberes from bands like Notwist, Village of Savoonga, etc... their music is influenced by 1960s coll jazz and jazz-rock. Is said to be a mix of Tortoise and Miles Davis.

go ahead and check em out. you can stream 3 of their songs from their website

Afterhours #3- Freaky Rock/Pop Show
Hello, so here's the third show of Afterhours. Oh I forgot to date the show and number it during the show, you can tell I'm still trying to get a hang of things. Well I'm going to change the format of the show, I'm going to set a genre for each show, because I think it’s weird to throw out different kinds of stuff and not feel caught off by it. So this show it's rock and pop, hence the Freaky Rock / Pop Show!!! Hope you guys don't mind the new format.

Well, hello... first post first post first post... well for a long time i've been avoiding to set up any kind of blog. most of my friends got thngs going on xanga.com but i never got around to do it cause i just don't find my life interesting enough to write some spectacular happening every week or so...

now i've got a podcast up and going, i guess that makes my life a bit more exciting. don't get me wrong, i don't lock myself up in my own room and stare at the computer 24-7, but not one of those promiscuous, partying teens either.. i fall somewhere in between. anyhow. need to figure out how to this blogspot functions and start migrating my project from blogmatrix onto this site.

well laters
fiercepanda!!
