RECORD OF THE WEEK
My Education – A Drink For All My Friends
Austin’s own My Education have just released their latest album, A Drink For All My Friends, on an Austin based record label, Haute Majie. This is a heavier sounding album that what My Education normally bring to the party, and it also has some samples thrown in there for good measure. This is 47 minutes and 7 tracks of pure instrumental music heaven. My personal favourite on this release is Black Box, but the other tracks do run a close second. From the opening notes of the vibraphone on ‘Introduction’ to the ending of the cacophony of sounds that is ‘Homunculus’, this is an album that deserves to be put on repeat. Their is an endearing quality about My Education’s music, and this album is just going to endear them more to fans old and new.
