I swear I'm challenged in some way when it comes to finding good mellow music for mellow times, this is exactly what I need. Keep doing it the way you're doing it now. Ah, great stuff.

When they released their last record a friend of mine and I followed them around the state cause we thought it was going to be their last tour. Let me tell you one of the best moves of my life. I also can't wait to get my hands on this new record. I know it will be a destroyer. Mercury Program is one of Florida’s most amazing bands.

This is my first time listening to The Mercury Program and it's nice. I like it. <i>Fluorescent Laces</i> reminds me of a funky sounding <i>Pachuca Sunrise</i> by Minus the Bear.

Surprised there are so many newcomers to them, but who cares—they deserve all the attention. Class act fellows as well. TMP is such a great band.

Thanks a lot for the post. I'm a big ISO50/ Tycho fan, and am lurking around here pretty much daily. I'll contact you directly to discuss some of the other things you mentioned. Artwork: Somewhere along the way the cover art got a weird conversion - (looks like a browser rendering of a CMYK file). Since most/all of you who read this blog are a bit more discerning than the average bear - here's a link to a version that is a little closer to correct. http://www.mercuryprogram.com/images/chezcover.jpg Thanks again - I hope you all enjoy the record. P.S. Thanks for the heads up Marc. Hey Jakub,
