Music recommendation: The band: National Skyline. The lineage: Hum, Castor, cross reference: Champaign-Urbana. Their eponymous disc now available through Parasol Records. A moody, uplifting, too short effort from this side project that eclipses the recent work of its' "parents". Organic synthesizers and a voice so imperfectly matched to the tone of the music that it functions as carrier wave all its' own. I haven't acquired a disc so worthy of the repeat button in a while, but this one definitely merits it.
