Found online: Report from Madison Square Garden with video & pics
While browsing the website of ProMotion (the peeps behind all those new “Perfect” remixes we posted about earlier) I stumbled across a blog entry the people over there did from the first show at Madison Square Garden.

Mute: Irmin Schmidt “Filmmusik Anthology 4&5″
Everyone once in a while here at HOME we pick a Mute release to write about because for one reason or another, we think it’s noteworthy or it’s just something we’d like to help push because it’s a great release. One of my personal heroes, Irmin Schmidt’s forthcoming album is one such release.
