some people buy a lot of records. i love how much of the T&F stuff people are familiar with, even those people who think T&F stuff is all rubbish.

four years pass...

I was fucking about amazon.co.uk and saw some new Projects cd, it was only 2 pounds something or other. Is it any good? Has some Broadcast remix or some shit on it. I loved the Projects more than any Saloon cd. I also ordered the last Tompaulin cd cause it was only a pound :).

Going through some box I have a Tompaulin on Earworm 7 inch I never played :(.

really? that's relatively rare, great record too. all the tracks are on the t&f comp of their singles i think

t&f have been pretty boring as a label for a little while, although it was good to see them put out the mahogany record for the UK

matinee still the best contender for new sarah. the names of most of the new bands they're putting out soon crack me up. bubblegum lemonade??

Matinee bands all sound exactly the same. Like they all record in the same room ... oh well :)

Found my receipt for the Earworm Tompaulin - 2 pounds :).

if you're trolling then whatever, but if you're serious i think you really haven't heard that many of them. sure, it's all "indie", but i don't see much more than that to link say tender trap with the lucksmiths

I wasn't trolling at all. i seriously think that. Look I know where your coming from Tugboat/Library and I know where Matinee is coming from. I just mean they seriously sound similar to me. I still buy them cause I am over 30 and buy cds.

T&F put out records by Herman Dune, which is a very good thing in my book (like them more than any Sarah band)

ok fair enough xpost.. i mean, there's a similar aesthetic to be sure, but i've never found myself getting the bands mixed up (although with some of the newer ones this is becoming an issue)

> new Projects cd... Has some Broadcast remix or some shit on it.

this remix is lovely (if it's the one i'm thinking of). is available on bleep.com if you want to listen. (is very duophonic era sounding)
