Make It Mine

The album has several high points. “Couches in Alleys” featuring the Postal Service’s Ben Gibbard is an electronic indie-pop delight. The album’s closing song “Make it Mine” clocking in around 9 minutes features several of Petergem’s collaborators and makes excellent background music. The first track “Misguided” features some variety using a slightly harder beat and rhymes provided by Alias.
Introducing Silverchair … Again – An Interview with Daniel Johns
andpop.com – Jul 23, 2007
‘ I just start writing and usually I’m just trying to write words that match the emotion that the music seems to conjure. The new album also features the return of Paul Mac on keys as he has done on the last two albums. Mac is an established artist on the Auzzie electronic music scene is known for his remixes which include Silverchair INXS and Powderfinger. He’s also Johns’ band mate in the Dissociatives. “The main difference is the Dissociatives is more of a collaborative thing. Me and Paul wrote all the music together for that one. With Silverchair I write the stuff by myself most of the time with the exception of a couple tracks.

Girls rock camp rocks!
Murfreesboro Post – Jul 23, 2007
The showcase ? held Saturday July 21 ? was the culminating event for the annual camp where girls ages 10 to 17 get to have discussions with musicians receive instruction on bass guitar drums vocals or electronic music and form their own bands. Founder Kelley Anderson should be commended for what she has been able to accomplish in the five years since the camp started. The impact this camp has on the campers is immeasurable. Even if these girls don?t pursue music after high school the self-confidence they build by gaining acceptance from people they admire and spending time with girls with their same interests is invaluable and will take them far in life. I have covered the Southern Girls Rock and Rock Camp for a few years but for some reason or other never made it to a showcase.
Festival Reviews: Glade Festival 2007 – The rains came but Glade kept…
Virtual Festivals – Jul 23, 2007
I’m knackered wet cold and still drunk so I decide to ram all my soaking bits back into my bag and like Dick Whittingham head to London just in search of a shower and bed rather than any gold. I jump onto the packed shuttle bus back to the reopened Thatcham to endure the long train home with my three day hangover setting in before getting to sleep. Glade is a truly welcoming festival full of very happy people and some brilliant cutting edge electronic music. It was more about meeting new friends and dancing to top DJs than the weather but the rain played a huge part. The site began as an area of outstanding beauty but once the tents have been moved and the organisers are off-site Mother Nature is going to have to buy one giant Glade plug-in to stop the stench.
Younger Brother The Last Days of Gravity
PopMatters – Jul 23, 2007
Simon Posford drove most of the way to that end as a founder of Twisted Records home to the finest psytrance and psydub ever pooled from ambrosia for the betterment of us mortals. Through Twisted he has been heavily altering the course of electronic music history with his down to business solo work as Hallucinogen and as half of Shpongle with Raja Ram. The latter project takes credit for three of the most hypnotic trip-inducing albums the genre has ever seen with a fourth promised for early 2008. Back in ‘03 Posford got together with label underling Benjamin “Prometheus” Vaughan who has since become a notable name in the scene on the back of two solid solo full-lengths and released their debut LP later that year. A Flock f Bleeps was far from an embarrassment in its execution but the previously established styles of each producer somewhat awkwardly dominated the work. There were flashes of brilliance but most of the time it sounded like just one person could have made the whole record alone.

New York Times – Jul 23, 2007
The four players of So Percussion and the two who make up Matmos came into the Allen Room of Rose Hall on Friday night offering acoustical and electronic sounds from “the most ordinary and bizarre sources” “experiments in sonic strangeness” and “a common interest in uncommon sounds. ” Skip to next paragraph.
