MP3 blog 2014/04/18

blog 2014/04/18 - the unfathomable expanse of unbridled playtime


Bibio - À tout à l'heure:  The hazy psych feel here is the perfect Bibio evolution.  Couldn't ask for more.

Bonobo - Cirrus (Dont You Want Me) (Cocolino Edit):  Let's just take that Bonobo smoothness and roll it out in to an eternal groove oh yes.

Eleanor Friedberger - Stare At The Sun (Epitonic Saki Session):  The Fiery Furnaces troubadour returns with a great live take.

Elephant - Skyscraper:  Mininig a touch of surf sentimentality, this is some gloriously satisfying pop.

Fol Chen - A Tourist Town:  Fabulous new track from the new album The False Alarms.

Homeboy Sandman - Brown:  Hot new ish on Stones Throw mines the Tom Waits percussion for some perfectly muted joints.

Icona Pop vs C2C - Happy To Love It (Fissunix mashup):  Ridiculous in concept but oh so precious now that it's here.  WHO KNEW WE NEEDED THIS?

NO - Another Life:  THIS IS NOT THE NATIONAL.   Every review has to state that upfront.  I don't really care, I love the National so much I'd love ot have another dead-ringer replacement in case their tour bus explodes.

Pascal Pinon - Bloom
Pascal Pinon - When I Can't Sleep:  So much force behind this whispered pop magic!  From the new album Twosomeness.

Philip Glass - NYC 73-78 (Beck Remix):  This could have been its own EP, all alone.  But the surprise entry in the Glass Remixes was too quickly overloked.  Here, a giant Beck expanse to just muck around in!

Poludnice vs. Liquid Molly - Dolina, Dolinuszka:  Nowadays it's amazing to hear something dubsteppy without a trap roll or brostep drop.   SO. DAMN. REFRESHING.

State Lines - Win Free:  Sometimes you just need some emo-laden punk pop in your world.

Thao & The Get Down Stay Down - Kindness Be Conceived ft Joanna Newsom:  I am loving the new Thao album We The Common and COME ON PEOPLE, JOANNA NEWSOM.  Highly recommended.

The Strokes - 80's Comedown Machine:  I've never been much of a Strokes fan but I really enjoy this song from the new album Comedown Machine

THEBLKHANDS - In Love ft Kembe X:  The XX get ripped over, and while I'm not sure why they weren't credited in the title, the verse on top goes really well.
