EDIE SEDGWICK: Justin Moyer, also of El Guapo

DORIS HENSON

Doris Henson, alright.

More cool music on the way.

After our little "break" to get Kim her library science degree, we're back with a vengeance, and the strongest roster and release schedule we've had in ages. Next up: Kansas City, Kansas's Doris Henson. Their new release, entitled Give Me All Your Money, will be out on March 21st, 2005, and it is unbelievably good. Read more »

DeSoto Joins the Year 2000

09.18.04 After much hand-wringing and furrowed brows, we finally have an online ordering system in place (note the clever avoidance of the term "e-commerce," one of Kim's least favorite neologisms of the last decade). It's Paypal-based, but it's pretty badass in that you don't need a Paypal account to play. shop »

PLAY kids compilation rages on

09.14.04 Kim continues to work on Play, which will be a compilation of lots of cool bands doing children's songs. Being 30 and childless, I'll admit that my initial enthusiasm was not where it is now; having actually heard a couple of the confirmed tracks, though, I'm pretty blown away by the quality of what I've heard so far, and I can tell you in all honesty that I think this is going to be something enjoyed by both children and jaded, single adults such as myself, ha ha. The cover art's super cute too...
