Tunes & beats

I am totally in love with so much music right now, but absolutely can't stop listening to Gypsy and the Cat.

Their album Gilgamesh has got to be one of the best albums of all time there is not a single song that I'm not in love with.

Warning history alert - Interestingly Gilgamesh was the fifth king of Uruk - modern day Iran and Kuwait and was rumored to rule for over 125 years. He was considered as a Demi God and had super human strength that he used to protect his people. He has appeared in a variety of mythical texts and is rumored to be the oldest living immortal - still wandering the world today - creepy!

The album was released at the end of 2010 and has taken off like a storm - G&C supported Kylie on her down under tour and they have just finished their sellout 'Jona Vark' tour round Oz and are planing on playing at Foreshore later this year.

Check them out here http://www.gypsyandthecat.com.au/ - they have a really cool interactive page - where you can listen to all their music and add your own images to be kaleidoscoped by their magic spinning thing - very technical I know but that's the best explanation - its kinda like an alternative music screen saver.

My two favourite songs are The Piper Song and Jona Vark.
