Simian Ghost – Bicycle Theme

Simian Ghost

Let’s get things moving right along, but at a decidedly subdued pace. One thing I want to say, Simian Ghost is just what the music doctor ordered. Like a gossamer sugar-coated screen filtering out the harsh light of an unrestrained sun. That said, the latest offering from Simian Ghost is total bliss. The song “Free Agent” taken from Simian Ghost’s sophomore release, the Lovelorn EP (released through Heist Or Hit Records).  Sebastian Arnström thank you so much for penning such lush and beautiful music. The Radiant Arp Mix is killing it. Another thing, my hat off to all the DIY indie music makers out and about in the world. You guys and gals are keeping it fresh to death. Peace.


AMTRAC – Hearts Not Made Of Gold

AMTRAC - Hearts Not Made of Gold from the new LP Came Along

Caleb Cornett hails from eastern Kentucky, although he sounds like he was born somewhere in the Centaurus A galaxy and has come to earth to save us from poor musical choices. However he got here, is irrelevant. In his current state he is commonly known as AMTRAC and we’re damn lucky he chose our planet to call home. His latest LP Came Along released via Super Music Group was released September 27th. So, if you like this you may want to cop the whole album. I’m digging “Hearts Not Made of Gold” just fine. Peace.


Born Gold – Body Songs

Born Gold - Bodysongs

Alright already, I know so many of you look forward to Fridays just because the mood around here at Mitten Mouth Music is a danceable one. I understand completely. I’m here to help Fridays feel a little more special by serving piping hot upbeat and effervescent music. Yeah, I said ‘effervescent’. First up is Born Gold, in their latest permutation these guys are casting a sinister ghostly pall of skittery Electro-Pop just in time for Halloween. Although the name is new, you many be familiar with previous monikers. Does Neon or Gobble Gobble ring a bell? Name change notwithstanding your body won’t be able to tell the difference. Because if what your seeking is music to groove to then go ahead and click play already. Born Gold‘s debut LP Bodysongs dropped September 20th, so its available immediately. Peep this, you can even name your price, just head over to  Crash Symbols and do the damn thang. Check out the whole enchilada below. Peace.

Cavaliers of Fun – Sharing Space Secrets

Cavaliers of Fun - Sharing Space Secrets

The universe created music for every conceivable situation, right? Right now I feeling pretty chill and so to soundtrack this particular mood I am playing one man band Cavaliers of Fun . I like the spacey sound, and I am set adrift upon rifts of intergalactic beats pelting my eardrums like cotton candy asteroids. You get the idea. The Sharing Space Secrets EP is the perfect little sound pill for whatever ails you. Thank you Ricco Vitali. Peace.


nicolas jaar // john the revelator

Often enough house music is too formulaic and predictable. Not so with Nicolas Jaar, and for that reason alone he is worth listening to. Mr. Jaar isn’t afraid to push the envelope and infuse his style of house music with various world influences. John the Revelator isn’t for the typical house music purist, whatever the hell that means. But it is for anyone who doesn’t like their music pre-packaged and over processed. So, light a candle, have a glass of whatever elixir suits your fancy, and simply chill. Also, check out Nicolas Jaar’s label Clown & Sunset on Facebook for more exemplar musical fare. Peace.
