German laptop/glitch record label Morr Music have released a Slowdive tribute
compilation. Titled
Blue Skied An' Clear, the first disc contains
covers by the likes of Múm, Manual, Isan and a number of other artists
of that stripe. The songs covered include the obvious choices (from
Just
For A Day and
Souvlaki) as well as parts of Slowdive's now-deleted
minimalist masterpiece
Pygmalion (the title track and
Crazy For You are listed).
Disc 2 is apparently all original compositions in a similar
direction; not too sure about that, but it may be interesting.
More information is on the
darla.com new releases page.
