once a year i get heavily into listening to the jacobites / epic soundtracks / nikki sudden stuff and they always seem like the best records ever made for a little while.
this blog has some cool stuff if you dig around: http://whatanicewaytoturn17.blogspot.com/
there is supposed to be a new epic soundtracks comp coming out sometime this year, though it's been delayed a bunch of times.

Thanks. Been going through a Jacobites/Epic-phase myself, but didn't know about any of this.

four years pass...

Waiting For Egypt is really good. So's Bible Belt. I also don't think "it's nothing like Swell Maps" is that accurate, although upthread someone says some of the Swell Maps play on those records, which might be why!

Surprised to learn he did an album (The Jewel Thief) with the R.E.M. guys all over it, at the height of their fame, and I never caught wind of it. Looks like it was only released in the UK(?), which may partly explain it.
