blog 2016/1/27 - a little bit of samba time
stock up on jerky: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20160127.zip
Adam Port - E Sound Edit: Get this groove.
Alias - Crimson Across It ft Doseone
Alias - Gold cLOUDDEAD Skiez: The 2014 album Pitch Black Prism didn't quite grab me, but I was in to these two.
Alice Glass - Stillbirth: Yeah OK she's still got it.
All Dogs - That Kind Of Girl: Oooo I love this track from Kicking Every Day.
Boyfriend - Same: Deepcore.
Dale Earnhardt Jr Jr - Gone: All about that whistle, baby. Take notes, Hot Chip.
Gallant - Weight In Gold (On Planets Remix): The bass, the horns, the vocals: total package.
Glass Animals - Gooey (Love Taps Remix): Oh this one is hot right here.
Hannah Cohen - Lilacs (Hidden Fees Remix): Like finding a b-side from The Sundays on a warm Saturday morning.
Hermitude - Ukiyo: Oooh this is hot + sexy.
Koloto - Life in Clay: Hot clicks oh my I'm all about this.
Natalie Prass - My Baby Don't Understand Me
Natalie Prass - Violently
Natalie Prass - Your Fool: Chalk it up to my failure as a human being in 2015 that I did not listen to the stunningly power slef-titled album from Prass until now. This is what I always dreamed all "Adult Contemporary" could sound like. Dramatic, powerful, and utterly charming. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
The Mynabirds - Wildfire: Close it out with this excellent pop number from Lovers Know.

MP3 blog 2016/01/21
blog 2016/1/21 - we can define the times we need alone
there is no pingback: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20160121.zip
Alabama Shakes - Don't Wanna Fight : I just wasn't feeling the new Sound & Color as much as their last album. This one came off as more following familiar lines and didn't push anything new, but still a few great tracks, and everyone ELSE seems to like it, so hey there's that.
Beecher's Fault - Carroll : From the new album Do As People Do, some massive indie pop.
Claire - Games (Henry Krinkle Remix) : Oh I love me some electropop smootheness.
DMA's - Laced : New single sounds just British enough.
Dotorado Pro - Love Marimbas : Love marimbas, indeed. Also love their deep groove.
Hundred Waters - Show Me Love (Big Wild Remix) : OH GOD JUST TAKE ME NOW MY BODY IS READY OH YESSSSSSS
Novalima - Beto Kele (Nosotros Somos) : Did I mention deep?
Sharon Van Etten - Just Like Blood
Sharon Van Etten - Pay My Debts : I wasn't totally aswoon with the new I Don't Want to Let You Down EP, but these tracks got in to me.
SmCity - Cracks In The Pillars : Amaaazing track from the 2014 Empire Fals
The Acorn - In Silence (Enantiomers) : Vieux Loup is a slow builder of cold stunning beauty that has to just simmer inside yourself.
The Cxde - Blue Ocean Floor : Hey it's ok, the boys need to catch up to FKA Twigs eventually too.
The Nebulas - Cosmos 954
The Nebulas - It's GO! Time : Dipping back to 1993 for It's GO! Time… surf rock extraordinaire
Titus Andronicus - Come On, Siobhan
Titus Andronicus - Dimed Out
Titus Andronicus - Lonely Boy : I loved their last album, but the new one, The Most Lamentable Tragedy, just kind of lost me halfway. Or more specifically, I lost steam. It's an epic musical, but I just couldn't slog through it, so I chopped out some of my favourite singles. YMMV

MP3 blog 2016/01/12
blog 2016/1/12 - find the groove and try not to atrophy
Oh how we like to delude and distract: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20160112.zip
Adam Cleaver - The Salt Mine: Sometimes you have no idea how youi stumble on stuff and you're just like welp here's something that's randomly lovely.
Bomba Estereo - Soy Yo: awwwwfuck yeah bassss
Chance The Rapper - Israel ft Noname Gypsy: Totes chill and I love how Noname slides all in there so smooth.
Deafheaven - Brought to the Water
Deafheaven - Gifts for the Earth: Missed in 2015, seems the kids these days like their banshee metal. Pretty amazing. New Bermuda is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Eskimeaux - Broken Necks
Eskimeaux - The Thunder Answered Back: Another overlooked winner: O.K. is full of so much charm and fun, with the brooding innocence of an Eric's Trip album and the confidence of Tune-Yards. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Jason Isbell - 24 Frames
Jason Isbell - How to Forget
Jason Isbell - If It Takes a Lifetime: I wasn't quite as in to this album as the stark solemn beauties of his prior album, but Something More Than Free has a few great tracks that are indispensable.
Merry Ellen Kirk - Ever After: It's that big final scene, she grasps for the curtains and stares up at the stars, filling herself with the silence of the universe. There must be some way out of this life. And that's when she notices a flicker.
Miguel - Leaves
Miguel - Waves: Wildheart is a big pile of incredibly sexy soul. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Get on this pile.
Natasha Alexander - Black Bodies: Well this is all sorts of devastating.
Rae Spoon - I Know I'm Not The Only One (Sam Smith cover): oh swoon
Thundercat - Them Changes: This is worlds of awesome. The break, the funk, the piano, the horns, my gawd.
Tobias Jesso Jr. - Can't Stop Thinking About You
Tobias Jesso Jr. - Leaving LA: Oh and here's another one I slept on, and perhaps the most shameful of the lot. Goon is like if Ween at their most saccarine jammed with Beck at his most earthen folk. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

And with a gurgle we are BACK: http://thetastates.com/mp3s/blog/blog20160104.zip
Alex Clare - Up All Night (Nadastrom 98 Re-Fix): Work that groove, let's get going.
B. Dolan - Jailbreak ft Buck 65 & Aesop Rock: First of two Aesop guestings in this update. First up, the highlight from the new album Kill The Wolf, and even Buck65 on this one? Wuhhhhhhhhhhht
Champagne Drip - Champagne Drip Theme: gimme dem HORN STABS
Dark Time Sunshine - Take My Hand ft Swamburger & Aesop Rock: A suuuuper dope track from a few years back. Aww yeah, go me, staying on top of things!
Empress Of - Kitty Kat
Empress Of - Make Up
Empress Of - Standard: January and February are the months I scavenge the "best of" lists from other places and listen to incredible albums that I missed or didn't have time to hear last year. This is one of them. Glorious pop, super addictive. For fans of Young Galaxy and La Roux. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Godspeed You! Black Emperor - [new song] (live 2015-09-10): A new song performed live? Soooo pretty.
Nancy Pants - Apple
Nancy Pants - I Didn't Say: This garage core is all up in my business and I like it.
Odesza - All We Need ft Shy Girls: full on smooth breakya
Snowbride - Breathing Neon My Sweet: Epic progressive electronics from the appropriately titled Fateful 808s.
The Weather Station - Life's Work
The Weather Station - Tapes
The Weather Station - Way It Is, Way It Could Be: Add Loyalty to the list of other albums I didn't give enough time to in 2015. This understated folk wonder takes time. It needs to sit in your head, and you need to sit with it, like a Bill Callahan album. RECOMMENDED.
