blog 2013/08/27 - beckoning on the horizon, the omen presents as a pony
2AM Club - Miley Cyrus: Who is this Miley person everyone is talking about? Sheesh.
CHVRCHES - Now Is Not The Time: From the Recover EP, this band makes me oh so happy.
Cornelius - Design Ah No Theme: Cornelius! Yes the dapper Japanese blender musician whom we all swooned over in the 90s! He scored a TV series on design called NHK DESIGN AH and as you can imagine, it's a pretty perfect fit.
Crash Of Rhinos - Interiors
Crash Of Rhinos - Standards & Practice: Some truecore emo sounds from the brilliant new album Knots.
Giselle - Silk (Rummage Remix): Rummage gives a sexy bass twist to this glorious little pop number.
Jill Barber - Two Brown Eyes (alternate mix): I stumbled on to this "The Our Power Solar Music Compilation" comp, and it had this gem (and the Mike O'Neill one) on it. Total Canadiana
Justin Martin - Ghettos & Gardens: Just total bass bounce without any of the side fixins.
Mike O'Neill - She Believes In Me (99% acoustic mix): In the same weekend that I was looking up old Inbreds stuff I stumbled on this great song on a little-known Canadian fundraiser comp and oh I love it.
Nguzunguzu - Drop Cage: Speaking of pure piles of clickclack bass bins….
Ryan Hemsworth - Overthinking
Ryan Hemsworth - Slurring (Baauer Remix): 2 slices from last year's brilliant Last Words album / double EP. So so so good.
Subsist - Girl: This. This is just total sex right here. All of it.
The Boxer Rebellion - Diamonds
The Boxer Rebellion - Keep Moving: Occupying a space somewhere in between The National, The Walkmen, and The Cure, the new album Promises is seeming pretty darn exciting.
The Heavy Blinkers - Perfect Tourists: From the new album Health.
The Inbreds - Amelia Earhart (live)
The Inbreds - You Will Know and Prince (live): Looking up Mike O'Neill I discovered that Inbreds had released a live album I had never heard! Woah! Live In Calgary 1997 is available for digital purchase, and fabulous if you are an oldschool Inbreds fan.

MP3 blog 2013/08/21
blog 2013/08/21 - I notice you're watching too.
Aimee Mann - Labrador: While being the lead single from the new album Charmer, and also the best song IMO, I love this song because the lyrics rework the notorious Bicycle Built For Two.
Alunageorge - Attracting Flies
Alunageorge - Lost and Found
Alunageorge - Your Drums Your Love: Body Music is an incredible album, all of the best parts of Lily Allen, UK pop bass, Annie, & Robyn. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Author - Teacher: This goes back to 2011, but it is a distillation of some of the best traditional dubstep elements, a postcard of what the genre might-have-been. A readymade nostalgia.
Cat Power - 3.6.9
Cat Power - Manhattan: Posting that remix last week reminded me that I enver really posted anything from Cat Power's 2012 album "Sun". Why? Well generally I was super disappointed with it. But I do love these 2 tracks.
Celer & Hakobune - Merges Of Hysterical Exhilaration: Time to chiiiiiiiil with a long selection from Vain Shapes And Intricate Parapets.
Ciara - Body Party (Sliink X Nadus Jersey Club Remix): A great little rework with deep enough syntyhs and an ample number of snaps.
DOOM - Retarded Fren ft Thom Yorke & Jonny Greenwood: Tragically named, but I love the beat here. From Complex Vol. 1.
La Sera - Please Be My Third Eye: This reminds me of St. Vincent in a really lovely way.
Lustmord - Babel: The new album The Word As Power is absolutely incredible, and pairs the your-soundsystem-just-isn't-good-enough drones with guest vocalists. The result is far more accessible for those scared of ambient music, and otherworldly for those of us that aren't. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Minipop - [untitled]: Space pop folk rcok smooth all over.
Monki Valley - Tanzania: Total sweet grooves from the new Where I Used to Sit EP. Amazing.
Sugar Stems - 6 Feet Under: Crazy fun sunshine pop from the album Can't Wait.

MP3 blog 2013/08/13
blog 2013/08/13 - it all clicks together seemlessly
Annie - Tube Stops and Lonely Hearts: New single from this dancefloor pop diva.
Blawan - Kaz: Blawan - Kaz
Blawan - Vibe Decorium: Totally sick deepness from Blawan, off the Bohla EP and What You Do With What You Have.
Cat Power - Cherokee (Nicolas Jaar Remix): I love it when a beatsmithy producer takes a great track and says fuck it, no beat, just float on this hot bed of synth wonderment. Let the flavours speak for themselves.
Clap! Clap! - Please Mother Rain Wash Our Souls From Human Evil: Powerful heavybass clapbang shit from Gwidingwi Dema and it's totally storming.
Esme Patterson - My Young Man: From All Princess, I, what really makes it for me is the demure male backup vocals.
Goldie - Kemistry (Justin Martin Remake - DJ Version): Justin Martin makes everything better. Cupcakes? Justin Martin cupcakes are better and covered in special sprinkles. Bicycles? Justin Martin bicycles will get you there in half the time without smelling like shit. And Goldie? You best believe this is the hottest Goldie track you've heard in a decade now.
Los Cojolites - Luna Negra (Uproot Andy RMX): Another crazy addictive banger from the always classy Uproot Andy.
Nina Simone - Feel Good (Skyphos Remix): Admit it, you never tire of the endless Simone remixes, do you? DO YOU?
Shad & Skratch Bastid - Bound 2 (Dub): Now THIS I wholehardedly endorse: Take all the best parts of Kanye, strip out all of the terrible parts of Kanye (i.e. the Kanye,) and then drop in some Shad. Problem Solved.
Speedy Ortiz - No Below
Speedy Ortiz - Tiger Tank: Major Arcana stuns with it's raw power, both musically and emotionally. The tremble alone makes your ears perk up. A fine mix of Pavement, Dinosaur Jr., Conor Oberst, and Sleater-Kinney. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Stephan Mathieu - Keid: Clinical drone action from his new album The Falling Rocket. Yeah, you keep waiting for the drop there, bucko.
Sun Glitters - Alone (Tours Edit): Smooth sailing chillbass for your own rocky shores.
The Hold Steady - Criminal Fingers: A true return to form, slipped out there on a 7" on record store day. A new classic.
The Weather Station with Baby Eagle - Mule In The Flowers
The Weather Station with Daniel Romano - Tomorrow Is Forever: Duets are often big affairs with bigger voices and bigger sounds. Screw that, we're getting together, getting cozy, and getting intimate and let's snuggle.

MP3 blog 2013/08/07
blog 2013/08/07 - azzerrrywhere
Baths - Ironworks
Baths - No Eyes: The new album Obsidian is garnering critical praise, but I can't get in to it as deeply as everyone else seems to. Disclaimer aside, there is much chugging hazy beat pop action going on here.
Beck - I Won't Be Long: Before enjoying any new Beck song, we all need a moment of silence to pity his desent in to the madness that is Scientology. May he get free one day.
Black Ceiling - Tw1n P34ks: Hitting you with with that Lynchian one-two tentacle punch!
Blue Stahli - Ghost of Love (David Lynch cover): Cover of the "single" from Lynch's first album.
Console - Leaving A Century (Marek Hemmann Remix): Part of a new trough of remixes, this one is my favourite mintech workout.
Freddie Scott - (You) Got What I Need (Danny Massure edit): Another amazing beatfunk classic gets a sly edit so you can slip it in perfectly and educate the children.
Kabaka International Guitar Band - Mangala Special (Uproot Andy RMX): If you didn't pick it up, Uproot Andy's Worldwide Ting mixtape was the hottest thing releasest in a year and lo and behold, the hot singles are coming out to blow up dancefloors everywhere!
The Futureheads - Acapella (Kelis cover): What an odd choice: releasing Rant, an acapella album? Where they hell did that come from? Track included for perfect irony.
Wooden Wand - No Bed For Beatle Wand / Days This Long
Wooden Wand - Southern Colorado Song: When the lyrics don't start until 3 minutes in, that is MY KIND OF FOLK. Blood Oaths Of The New Blues didn't win me over as a whole, but my god these 2 tracks lick my socks off.
Yellow Ostrich - Elephant King
Yellow Ostrich - Marathon Runner
Yellow Ostrich - Stay At Home: Strange Land is an album where I wasn't in to the whole, but this selection of tracks from it melts my face in such an amazing way, I just want this to be a single and declare it the best thing of the year.
Young Galaxy - Hard To Tell
Young Galaxy - Pretty Boy
Young Galaxy - Sleepwalk With Me: Ultramarine weaves another synth electro pop spell that is more sultry and simmering than in-your-face, as you might expect. This album continues to grow all over me.
