London's shoegaze royalty Cheatahs just announced pre-order for their forthcoming Murasaki EP on Wichita Recordings, with 12" vinyl due 16 June (digital EP available 5 May with 12" preorder). 紫 (Murasaki) is billed as a conceptual EP influenced by Japanese poet and novelist Murasaki Shikibu, with the lyrics sung fully in Japanese.

Top 20 tracks for March (the week ending March 29th). Gives a snapshot of where we're at in the year, what releases WE'RE pushing, and what our listeners are responding to. Some tracks here have climbed up and down these charts in the last several weeks, so the rankings themselves are less important than landing on the chart itself. Three tracks have carried over from February to March, and held […]
PACKED. We can't fit any more in. We're going to tease you with prefinal mixes from the new Autodrone LP, This Sea is Killing Me. We welcome back our old favorites, as they prepare for a big return engagement at Mercury Lounge NYC on February 1st. The heady psych vibe is strong in this one. But that's just the tip of the iceberg. We're also celebrating the triumphant return of […]

It starts with pre-release awesomeness from the sweetly textured Dead Leaf Echo, and pre-release sandpaper textures from Roku Music. Both of these drop first Tuesday in March, and are well worth keeping your ears open for. Add in all the newest releases from The Casket Girls, Cheatahs, Soft Science, Glaswen, Lilies on Mars, Nights, The Open Feel, ArtClassSink, and a cripplingly lovely tune from Portland's Vibrissae, and you've got a […]
Perfect trifecta (quadfecta?) of releases tomorrow, with some of the most anticipated music of the year. Wichita Recordings brings us the self-titled full length from Cheatahs tomorrow. While some of these tunes will be quite familiar to you from prior singles and EPs, they still produce some of the most compelling music in the genre, and their time has arrived.
