Weekly
A few years ago, a coworker (Lars Russell, for those of you following along at home) introduced me to an album called Elk in Here by an electronic artist named Weekly (of Minneapolis, I believe).
Lars had a copy of the disc, so I ripped it (only because I couldn’t find anywhere to buy it; honest) and have listened to it probably hundreds of times over the last three or four years. It’s fantastic.
At that time I couldn’t find any information about Weekly on the Great Wide Internet (except for this City Pages article from 2002), but now he has a MySpace page. What are the chances?
So, in the spirit of celebration, head over to Weekly’s MySpace page and listen to the sample tracks from Elk in Here. If you like what you hear, try to get your hands on a copy of the disc — it appears to be for sale here but I’m not sure what other distribution options are available.
As always, let me know what you think. Yes, comments are still busted so drop me a line at jazer at probably this domain dot com. :-)
