Oh I have been gone. Gone, but not too far away.
Well let's make wrong things right again and get straight in to another update.
A Hawk And A Hacksaw - Cervantine
A Hawk And A Hacksaw - Lazslo Lassú: Was the big band sound of the last Beirut album making you drool? You will probably love the new album Cervantine by A Hawk And A Hacksaw. I wasn't in to the whole thing, but it does come at you with some incredible instrumental music. These two tracks here are a delight.
Adrian Lux - Teenage Crime: Yessssssss! This song reminds me of my friend Adam.
Bombaman - Mmeelloo Ssttaarr: From the new EP of the same name, a devastatingly sexy little stepper. The pitched-all-over up breathey samples make it just irresistible.
Cloud Nothings - Should Have: It's lo-fi, but more Eric's Trip and twee pop fun than Vivian Girls. From the self-titled new album!
Crystal Fighters - At Home (Disclosure Mix): The bloghousey wackiness is put in line for this great deep club killer.
Ghostface Killah - Mighty Deadly (4di Remix): BEAT SO HOT!
Gil Scott-Heron And Jamie XX - I'm New Here
Gil Scott-Heron And Jamie XX - Running
Jamie xx - Rolling in the Deep (Remix ft Childish Gambino): Jamie's been busy! His remix album of Gil Scott-Heron ended up being better in theory, but still worth a listen. When Jamie hits, it's golden. That's why Yog Soggoth gave you a next track button.
Jenny and Johnny - Big Wave: In the tradition of Metric and Beach House, off the new album I'm Having Fun Now.
Jenny O. - Won't Let You Leave (Spirit Animal Remix): Sweet pop with sword of +2 bass beat.
Kathryn Calder - Arrow: Calder's folk is wistful and romantic and oh keep singing for me fire pixie!
Lady Lamb the Beekeeper - Penny Licks: All of the plucky go-getter attitude of Tune-Yards with the surefire indie revelry of Yellow OStrich. Delicious.
Love Axe - Never: From last year's album Phenomenomenons.
Police Academy 6 - Wanting Something: More of that merging of post-dubby Mount Kimbe clicks-a-lot with that down-pitched slowed out witchy business. And a perfect tribute to a fabulous movie, to boot.
Pomplamoose - Hail Mary: Reminds me of my favourite parts of My Brightest Diamond with a dash of Florence & The Machine. Nice nice nice.
Ryuichi Sakamoto - Mill Theme (Robotaki Remix): Yeah, I wasn't expecting such a straight-up Bonobo-tribute downtempo number either, but there you have it.
Tim Hecker - Hatred Of Music II
Tim Hecker - In The Air II: Man, I was so ready to snark. I got really bored of Tim Hecker over the years. A number of his albums just left me super flat. And not like Murakami superflat either. I was so ready to be all *yawn* next?
But no, the new album "Ravedeath, 1972" does not skimp, does not bore, and does not let anyone down. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Yosemite Jack & Afrojack - Double Rainbow Replica (Cave Cake Edit): Yes yes, just had to end it with this. YOU ARE WELCOME.
Rave on.
