Repeat: Doused//DIIV
“doused” feels like the perfect name for this track from brooklyn’s beach fossils spin-off, diiv. the thumping drums and relentless, stabbing guitars evoke some criminal conspiracy – arson comes to mind. and the spectre of dubious activity only feels more likely with singer zachary cole’s premonitory incantation. if you enjoy the smell of gasoline, and your post-punk […]
Repeat: Bob (Edu K Remix)//Otto Feat. Bebel Gilberto
May 12, 2012
eighteen years since his tragic and untimely passing, the heroic figure of brazilian formula 1 champion ayrton senna continues to inspire hearts and minds. through homages in popular culture – in music (delorean, norberto lobo) and as the subject of a 2011 documentary film, senna – his story, even beyond the realm of competitive auto racing, […]
Repeat: Obedear//Purity Ring
April 24, 2012
“obedear” is a first taste from electro-pop duo purity ring’s forthcoming 4ad/last gang debut, shrines (july 24). the moody synths, stammering beat and pitched-down samples, along with singer megan james’ sharp, girlish voice, combine for a sound that is at once familiar yet attention-grabbing. maybe something björk would spin. definitely worth a listen or ten. ƒ
Repeat: Minneapolis Belongs to You // Elite Gymnastics (LOL Boys Remix)
April 17, 2012
lol boys remix of our favorite track from the first two installments of the excellent and increasingly-prolific ruin series re-imagines the hometown tribute as a sprawling and gauzy ascent of some digital tower of babel, to, needless to say, stunning effect. or, to claim “breathe new life,” you can almost feel the soul of artificial musical intelligence […]
Repeat: The Dive//Fool’s Gold
April 15, 2012
turn on, tune in, and bliss out to the psychedelic vibes of los angeles afro-pop evangelizers fool’s gold and dir. tim nakashi’s kaleidoscopic treatment for ‘the dive’. beachy, man. if you’re outside the u.s., you can peep the studio version for now. ƒ
Repeat: Kill For Love//Chromatics
April 13, 2012
kill for love is the fourth studio album from portland’s chromatics, who, over the course of a decade, have moved further and further from the punk rock roots of their gsl days. on kill, we find the core duo of johnny jewel (the only remaining original member) and singer ruth radalet refining the italo disco of 2007′s night […]
Repeat: LGOYH//Kews
April 12, 2012
LGOYH’s (let go of your hurt) seven-and-a-half undulating minutes progressively envelope the listener in waves of synths, chimey glockenspiel, throbbing bass, and pulsing kick … but above its bleary soundcscape is kwes’ vocal, which tells a clear, unmistakable story: this here’s a love song. with all the next-big-thing hype around the londoner multi-instrumentalist/producer presently infecting the b’sphere, it’s […]
Repeat: The Recipe//Kendrick Lamar feat. Dr. Dre
April 4, 2012
“the recipe” is a fresh new cut from so cal mc kendrick lamar, who’s star continues to steadily rise since releasing his trumpeting 2011 debut, section.80. on this scoop deville produced and dr. dre featuring first peak from the forthcoming good kid in a mad city, lamar and dre trade chorus and verse over a looped sample […]
