Hooray for Tuesday's MP3: Dances with Wolves

In retrospect, it may not have been such a great idea to name your solo recording project Dances with Wolves. After all, if you look up Masters of the Hemisphere in Wikipedia, it inexplicably contains a link to the Kevin Costner Best Picture winner. What's the connection? It's Adrian Finch, of course, late of Elf Power, Summer Hymns, and the Masters, and who, in 2002, released an excellent, moody solo album, South East, under the name. (He also cut a solo track, "Tippytoes," as The Phones for 2000's Kindercore Fifty: We Thank You.) Finch plays all the instruments on every track of this DCBaltimore2012 release, but he had some assist from Chris Bishop (of Radium Recordings), M Coast's Derek Almstead and Summer Hymns' Zachary Gresham, both of whom aided in the mixing. Here's a highlight.
