Here’s a new one from Molice, called “Fatima.” It’s some solid follow-the-bouncing-ball rock, improved drastically by the lead vocals, which remind me of (oddly enough) the matter-of-fact delivery of Vanilla Beans. Well, only during the verses…the chorus bursts open as Molice tend to do. The above video also finds the band falling in love with the mirror effect available in most video editing software. Watch above.
I never would have pegged garage-rock kids The New House as the type to turn to Animal Collective for inspiration. There debut album sounded plenty pleasant, but never hinted at anything beyond simple post-Strokes rock aspirations. Which is why the group’s two latest demos posted to MySpace come as such a shock. Gone are the…
Electronic duo ELLEH have been building up to this EP over the last few months, and now here it is, Anthems Part 1. It collects all of the singles and loosies the pair have put out thus far, including the tipsy “American Lover” and recent highlight “New To This.” It’s the first real dive into…
It is a soundtrack made for commuting between different places in large urban spaces, filled by swarms of people shoaling and funneling across intersections, subway stations and central hubs like corpuscles pulsating in the cities veins, conducted by invisible algorithms in the symbiotic superorganism that is a metropole. とは、Submerseによる自身がリリース予定の新EP、Algorithms And Ghostsの解説。人の多い忙しい街を行き来する時に聴いてほしいとの事。 初めて東京に訪れた人は誰でもきっとわくわくするはず。ネオンは四六時中光り輝き、人々は止まる事なく地下鉄を乗り換えて行きます。入り組んだ街並みからは、きっと路地裏やビルの陰に色々な物が隠されているに違いない、と思いますよね。でもそんな感情も長く住むにつれ薄れていく気がします。アパートを借りたとたんに、どこにでもある街へと突如変貌する恐れも。 Submerseというアーティストはイギリス出身で、今は日本に住みつつ、日本の首都”東京”から影響を受けたという新EP、Algorithms And Ghostsを準備しています。タイトル・トラックによると、彼はまだこの街からインスパイアされ続けてるみたいです！Burialがこの街を寂しい孤独な場所として表現しているのとは正反対で、Submerseの“Algorithms…
As producer Nite Body has displayed across the previous two Nite Body EPs…plus Nite For Fox, a special release eschewing numbers, I suppose…simplicity is all you really need to create great dance numbers for the night. III moves at a blurry, after-midnight pace, unfolding at a speed apt for moving around to but also getting…
Trekkie Trax pillar Andrew writes that he made this funky number last September, but has shared “ELB” in 2018. Riffing off of Millie Scott’s “Ev’ry Little Bit,” Andrew creates a loose-limbed electro number fueled by clinky percussion and these big fat bass notes that give this a boogie feel. A nice afternoon pick-me-up. Listen above.
Vancouver-based blog Hearing Gold put together a special compilation titled Vacation Spirit in advance of the summer months. They write that these are “15 exclusive songs documenting the sounds of a blissful summer as personally expressed by their respective artists.” One of the contributors is Japan’s Teen Runnings, a trio that seems pretty well-suited to…
