What a crazy week it has been! Barely had time to put anything together, so here's a quickie for you all.
Ancient Astronauts - Peace in the East ft Entropik: AA does the traditional downtempo bliss thingy, and are back with a new album, "Into Bass and Time", for the 2011. Check it out, downtempo breakbeat fans!
Cloud Cult - Happy Hippo: Happy little Neil Young homage here, from 2007's "Advice from the Happy Hippopotamus".
Crookers - Cooler Couleur (AC Slater Remix): BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!
David Lynch - I Know (Jon Hopkins Remix): Yes, THAT David Lynch, has been having fun in the studio for years. He drops a wonderfully processed bluesy track, and it gets a few (perfectly) sick reworks.
Douster & Savage Skulls ft Robyn - Bad Gal: Of course we are craving much more Robyn, and we'll take it in any form possible.
Everything Everything - MY KZ YR BF (James Rutledge Remix): Ha! Finally some post-dubstep ish with a bit of a sense of humour.
Hurray For The Riff Raff - Daniella
Hurray For The Riff Raff - Junebug Waltz: I had been listening to 2008's LP "It Don't Mean I Don't Love You" a lot, and these two are staggering folk standouts. Are we sure these people aren't Canadian?
LightGuides - The Lion And The Pocketwatch: Total powerpop rock, from the album "Past & Present".
Mates Of State - Second Hand News (Fleetwood Mac cover)
Mates Of State - Sleep the Clock Around (Belle & Sebastian cover)
Mates Of State - True Love Will Find You in the End (Daniel Johnston cover): Crushes is the new record and it's a ridiculously fun guilty pleasure. and you can almost tell they feel the same way!
Such a fun album of covers, highly recommended.
Ø - Heijastuva: This is such an incredible revelation for the artist. He's done amazing work in the past, but the new album Heijastuva is at the top of my favourite albums of the year so far. Stunning. Gorgeous. Captivating. APPLAUD, DAMMIT!
Simon Hinter - Take Care (Aki Latvamaki Remix): clicky and smooth and fabulous.
Tennis - Marathon: Garage rock meets 60s girl group superstars. Hand claps are a must!
The Go! Team - Buy Nothing Day
The Go! Team - The Running Range: The new Go! Team record is AMAZING. I was so apprehensive about it, but it won me over on the first listen. BUCKETS OF FUN TO BE HAD WITHIN, PEOPLE.
