The Daily Moo: Pink Floyd - One of These Days (Live at Pompeii)
via youtube.com
If you look closely you can spot him lose his drumstick around the 4:32 mark and carry on playing without missing a beat. This version of the song is awesome and showcases one of the best drumming talents in the history of Rock.

The Daily Moo: Scala & Kolacny Brothers - Creep (Radiohead cover)
via youtube.com
Ok, so its a choir. Normally that would make me cringe. But maybe you've heard these guys in the Social Network trailer with a weird feeling creeping up your spine and already know how awesome they are. Regardless, you need to listen to this.

The Daily Moo: The Clash: Straight to Hell

After a match yesterday which has left my eardrums damaged, we have something rather peaceful to listen to today. Enjoy this reggae and dub inspired classic from the band which defined Punk.

Music Companies worried about losses due to free music streaming - PCWorld
Free streaming services are replacing piracy as the chief culprit of music industry revenue loss in the minds of fiscally frustrated executives, if a number of panel discussions at a New York digital music conference are any indication.

It is an interesting scenario. Once you pair up broadband penetration with high speed mobile internet, you essentially have access to a huge database of online music. Maybe we need to move towards some sort of communal music ownership model, with collective patronage for the artists.

The Daily Moo: Colonel Bagshot - Six Day War
via youtube.com
Considering the turmoil in the Middle East, the Daily Moo brings you a song from another war in that region. The original by Colonel Bagshot (a one hit wonder) was made famous when DJ Shadow sampled it for his track Six Days. While we might thankfully not be looking at the kind of nuclear showdown imagined in the song, the world is still far from a peaceful place.

The Daily Moo: Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead (Original)
via youtube.com
Sorry for the delay in posting today's Daily Moo folks. But to compensate for it, we have an absolute gem of a track for you. The song that started it all; What is considered as the first Goth recording in history! Bela Lugosi's dead was English Goth band Bauhaus' first recording in 1979, a time when the term Goth Rock did not exist. Far ahead of the modern day screechers, their sound had a much more menacing, dark quality to it which did not necessarily involve serious damage to the eardrums. Bela Lugosi of course was the actor who gave us our modern image of Dracula through his 1931 film. I guess this is one of the few good things to come out of the 80s!

The Daily Moo: Radiohead - Lotus Flower (From their new album: The King of Limbs)
via youtube.com
Well, Radiohead have pulled a fast one on us. They've crept up and released another album with next to nothing in terms of publicity. The King of Limbs continues the spooky almost ambient sound of In Rainbows. Here's a speacial video of Lotus Flower, which has frontman Thom Yorke himself dancing like a lunatic.

The Daily Moo: Chori Chori, Meesha Shafi - Coke Studio
via youtube.com
Today we hop across the border to bring you the lovely Meesha Shafi from Pakistan. Somehow there's nothing more musically sensual than a lady singing the Blues; language becomes irrelevant. There is a lot of good music to listen to from the Coke Studio recordings, this is just a glimpse!

The Daily Moo: Bob Seger and the Last Heard- East Side Story
via youtube.com
A blast from the past is todays video. Most of us have heard of Bob Seger (of the original "Turn the Page" fame). East Side Story is the song which propelled him into fame. A classic swing number the lyrics evoke feelings of hardboiled Noir you'd expect to find in a Raymond Chandler story.

The Daily Moo: Peter Cat Recording Co. - Pariquel
"Sinema is the maiden record of the peter cat recording co. Recorded by the band itself, it's subject matter varies from classy prostitutes and their delusional lovers to midnight moonlight car chases to an electric victory parade marching through Tokyo after the second world war. Full of amplified hums, distant violin slides, fuzzy pianos , gypsy rhythms and fairground soundscapes.."
Sometimes you just happen to discover an amazing bit of music out of the blue. Peter Cat Recording Co. are a Delhi Band and are definitely here to stay. Check out their debut album Sinema for some fresh sounds!!

The Daily Moo: The xx - Crystalised
via youtube.com
Today the Daily Moo brings you The xx. A London band whose debut self-titled album won the Mercury Prize. Their sound is clear, rich and sparse at the same time giving you a feeling of calm and space. Something which perhaps we all need in our noise polluted worlds.

via youtube.com
Today we bring you another band from India. Shaa'ir+Func are a Bombay based band comprising of Monica Dogra (recently of Dhobi Ghat fame) and Randolph Correia. Though classified as "electro-rock" their music is hard to fit in a particular genre. Oops is from their first album New Day - The Love Album.
