Where the food sounds good, and the music is pretty tasty too.

The Daughter’s cover of Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky” is hands down my favorite rendition of this stellar song. But if this your introduction to the Daughter then you’re also lucky. Elena Tonra, Igor Haefeli & Remi Aguilella comprise the three member North London group and if you’ve taken a shine to bands like Florence and The Machine then Daughter will be a surefire fit. Daughter’s debut album release If You Leave is out now courtesy of 4AD and Glassnote Records. You can also get your copy on iTunes. Peace. Continue reading “daughter // get lucky (daft punk cover)”
At times you just have to revisit those songs that get you up and moving! The redo of Purity Ring‘s “Belispeak” into “Belispeak II” ft. Detroit rap resident and poetic potty-mouth Danny Brown is a match made somewhere in the disco realms of Dante’s Inferno. Pump this one again for fun time’s sake. Peace.
for those familiar with grimes you know just how sub-zero chill her music can be. however, when you take a track like, “genesis” and put it into the hands of dj/producer easy girl you’re in for a dark surprise. the “genesis (easy girl) remix” is a mendicant black scrim of melancholy splendidly covered by besmirched synths and “tussled with” vocals which sometimes go beautifully staccato. this one is definitely some kind of sexy. oh before i forget, it’s a free download. so get it while it lasts. peace. Continue reading “grimes // genesis (easy girl) remix”
Memorable songs stay with us long after we’ve heard them for the first time; embedding themselves into our very bones and ruining our ears against all other sounds. Such memorable music can be had the moment you click play, and listen to the band Daughter. You’ll quickly fall beneath the spell of Elena Tonra‘s voice. Listen to their tangible fabric of a song, “Landfill” and wrap this soft-hewn scrim about your living spaces and enjoy. Both The Wild Youth EP and the His Young Heart EP are available on iTunes. Peace. Continue reading “daughter // landfill”

A much appreciated new song, “Fineshrine,” from Purity Ring. Hope you enjoy this as much as I do. By the way, the duo’s (Megan James and Corin Roddick) forthcoming debut album Shrines is scheduled to drop July 2th via 4AD. And you can most certainly Pre-Order it on Amazon or 4AD. Peace. Continue reading “purity ring // fineshrine”
Meagan James and Corin Roddick are Purity Ring. That said, the duo makes bristling music for a decidedly earthbound heavenly choir. Their new song, “Obedear” is simple beauty wrapped in rainbow gauze. Their new (as yet untitled) LP is expected to drop July 24th, and I’m so looking forward to the tracklist and of course tour dates. Peace. Continue reading “Purity Ring // Obedear”
There isn’t much not to like about Claire Boucher and her musical outlet/persona Grimes. Her latest album Visions is something one can do all sorts of things to, but mostly a body can get lost for hours on end just vibing out and surfing the inter-channels of your mind. After the jump check out her song “Genesis” reworked by Ryan Hemsworth with the addition of the unexpected words and rhymes of Deniro Farrar flowing effortlessly of Grimes’ inherent cool. Peace.
