Neil Gaiman - "Harlequin Valentine" & I Monster - "Neveroddoreven"

Reading "Harlequin Valentine" (from the "Fragile Things" collection) while listening to I Monster's "Neverroddoreven" (starting with "Heaven") is a wonderful combination and quite helps to get into writing mode.

I Monster - "Neveroddoreven" and "A Dense Swarm Of Ancient Stars"

Particularly like their uptempo-music (not much sleep last night), with silly voices and friendly beats, but their slow songs aren't bad either, all in minor, with strange effects and curious lyrics.

I Monster - "A Dense Swarm Of Ancient Stars"

Same wonderful craziness. "A pod is waiting", an old man, waiting for time. Echos of loneliness, sadness. and craziness, always the craziness

"Dear John", money-counter, Madness-ish. Residents. Chord-schemes of Babyon circ us?

"Sucker for your sound", with a female voice that reminds you of the Knife or Emiliana Torrini

I Monster - "Neveroddoreven"

Curiously triphopy music. Vocoders.

Daydream in Blue sounds familiar. Remix?
It's all very much like "Heaven". In a good way.

"Who is She", grand.

"The Blue Wrath", happy, muppet-like
