MP3 blog 2015/06/23

blog 2015/06/23 - this all prevents it from happening so fast

but we cheat and do it to ourselves slowly:  http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20150623.zip



Cadenza x FEM FEL - Electric Blocks:  This is the deep big room feel that I want all night.

Dead Land - Opium Clouds
Dead Land - Walking With Death (Eternal Exit):  2 tracks from Death Has Made It's Peace With Me, love the drift of postrock swoon.

Kin Cayo - Shot The Sun Down:  Dial down the pop from Passion Pit levels to something manageable, thanks.

King Tuff - Eyes of the Muse:  Oh gloried 60s vibe!

Little Daylight - Be Long (Twice As Nice Remix):  Electropop plod along!

Major Lazer & DJ Snake - Lean On ft MO:  Pop classic up there with Get Free in terms of being an instant classic.

Northumbria - The Ocean Calls us Home:  Drone it out in to the skies!

Oh Wonder - Lose it (Nubbz Remix):  Oh the smoothness.

Partynextdoor - Juss Know ft Travis Scott:  I can't help but think of a phrase like "I remember everything" as a horrific reveal in the scariest of psychological horror films.  Also, dat bass.

Perseus - Shadow of the Beast:  Can we agree to call housey electrop GloryHole?  I think that's a swell name for a genre.

Teeth Engraved With The Names Of The Dead - Lacerate:  Sweet digestible noisedrone from Starving the Fires (Pt. I)

Viet Cong - Bunker Buster
Viet Cong - Continental Shelf
Viet Cong - Silhouettes:  From the self-titled 2014 debut…

Watering - Baltimore
Watering - Tall Basser:  Oh gosh these are a special bliss.  It feels like post rock jazz that dance so whistfully you wonder if it will ever just collapse.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Kypski - Unknown Break (Kypski Edit):  Sometimes you just need a clean solid break.

Machinefabriek - The Measures Taken Part IV:  The Measures Taken is a wholly satisfying world of textural ambience.  Recommended.

Made In Heights - Skylark Interabang!:  It always boggles my mind that every Sufjan song hasn't been looped out the wazzooo because OMG there is so much instant emotion to tap.

Phantogram - Fall In Love (NEUS Remix):  Aces on the electropop formula.

MP3 blog 2015/06/10

blog 2015/06/10 - gentle piano intro

metal slag defeated:  http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20150610.zip



Baauer - Promises ft Fetty Wap & Dubbel Dutch:  The slick restraint on here just let's you bounce twice as high.

Homeboy Sandman - I
Homeboy Sandman - My Brothers:  I just got around to listening to the Kool Herc: Fertile Crescent EP and it's got a galloping goofiness and attention to detail that I am really enjoying.  This goes back to 2013, but still, RECOMMENDED.

Iron and Wine - Next To Paradise:  Taken from a 2013 Record Store Day 7".

James Blackshaw & Lubomyr Melnyk - Satevis
James Blackshaw & Lubomyr Melnyk - Tascheter:  The Watchers is a dizzying swirl.  I wish they would play this kind of stuff at my local spa, fuck that pan flute with birds tripe.

Lackluster - Cull Streak (Sense Mix)
Marumari - Botany (Lacklustermx):  These 2 are from the Merck Package, a pile of ahhhh lackluster Lackluster?   Some goodness when dug in to, but not a lot caught my ears, sadly.

Romare - Taste of Honey (From the City)
Romare - Your Love (You Give Me Fever):  Did I mention how amazxing Romare is?  These are from the wonderful Love Songs: Part One EP.

Vijay Iyer Trio - Break Stuff
Vijay Iyer Trio - Starlings
Vijay Iyer Trio - Taking Flight:  It's not super insta-love, but the new album Break Stuff has really grown on me, straddling between that latenight accessibility and gentle convention pushing composition.

blog 2015/06/02 - I'll never have you

But hey we grasp at illusion anyways:  http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20150602.zip



Big Brave - A Song for Foxes:  Psych folk rock like this is the sound of love, a glorious heart of shimmer from Feral Verdure.

Das Rad - Radiator:  whut.

LabField - Page 55
LabField - Straight A's In Constant Sorrow
LabField - Temporary Reasons:  Bucket of Songs is one of those special albums where the textural swirl is all so much that you just want to wrap it around you and descend downward.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Modest Mouse - Lampshades On Fire
Modest Mouse - Of Course We Know
Modest Mouse - The Ground Walks, With Time In A Box:  Strangers To Ourselves is a quality Modest Mouse album that delivers the Modest Mouse goods that you demand as a Modest Mouse fan.  Recommended.

Panda Bear - Crosswords:  I kept it around for a long time but the final verdict on Panda Bear Meets The Grim Reaper is that it doesn't fill up any hole in my life, save for a few tracks.  Time to move past.

Purity Ring - Bodyache
Purity Ring - Push Pull
Purity Ring - Stillness in Woe:  The second PR album Another Eternity is all sorts of joy.  Get it.  HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Rafael Anton Irisarri - Will Her Heart Burn Anymore 00
Rafael Anton Irisarri - Will Her Heart Burn Anymore 22:  This new Will Her Heart Burn Anymore EP is full of fuzzed out textural ambience and I love it.

The Black Ryder - Santaria:  Close it off with some sweetness.
