Dagger is another great song off the self titled debut recorded by Chris “Frenchie” Smith (Dandy Warhols, Explosions in the Sky, Jet). They have put this album out in Japan on Kurofune and in the UK on Young & Lost Club and now theyre releasing this in the USA on the new minted label Playing In Traffic. The Steps put on a great live show (which many witnessed at ACL fest last year) and have been winning people over one at a time and are hitting the road in support of their self titled full-length debut.

What is Psychedelic Cosmic Space Music?
‘Psychedelic Cosmic Space Music’ is a reinterpretation of psychedelic MUSIC tracing the dots from its birth in 1967 to the present – a DJ trip through over 4 decades of genre busting, sonically diverse music.
Please talk about the concept of this mix album
We started resonating to a different frequency of sound in 1997, a kind of liberation from the monochrome escaping the limitations of genre. Music that blurs all boundaries and that exists outside of all the traditional genres. This album represents 10 years of collecting and researching and DJing in this area. All of these tracks we have found to be companions or TOOLS for the spiritual search or for expansive realms of consciousness. We have given them all an extensive road test. The AMORPHIC ACID test!!! ENJOY!!!

Overman
overman
Overman is an up and coming Chicagoland band. We’ve garnered some international
attention with our song “Evolution Rocks.” Its been used as a teaching supplement in classrooms from Brooklyn to Australia, has been officially endorsed by the National Science Teachers Association, and have been performed on national television via WGN News.
North Elementary
It’s about damn time. As 2006 melted into ’07, North Elementary and producer
Alan Weatherhead (Hotel Lights, Sparklehorse) were busy patching together a
record weekend-by-weekend at Weatherhead’s Richmond, Va. studio. The
result, Not For Everyone, Just For You, is the Chapel Hill, N.C.-based North
Elementary’s most complete artifact yet. And for two years, it collected dust.
The band recorded and released a whole separate album, 2007′s
Berandals (Pox World Empire) after finishing NFEJFY. False starts and missed
connections plagued the record, putting the release date farther and farther
into a nebulous “eventually.”
