††† is the side project of Deftones singer Chino Moreno combined with guitarist Shaun Lopez and Scott Chuck. Last month the trio released the semi-dark and electro-rock driven track “Prurien†”. This track is from the new EP and I’m diggin’ it immensely. You can cop a free download right here. Peace. Continue reading “Crosses // Pruient (Lopez Remix)”
Intergalactic travel always goes better with something bangin’ out of the on-board speaker system, and we got the perfect space-bending accompaniment. Check out the latest single from Mansion On The Moon and you’ll thoroughly dig their track “Athens.” This is a Pharell Williams-produced joint, so you get his hit-making Midas touch. But the bedrock of every song is still MOTM‘s typical brand of fare from this L.A.-based trio. Lane Shaw‘s vibrant drums, supporting Ted Wendler‘s dreaming shoegazy guitar, along with the perfect dash of Ben Hazlegrove‘s mellifluous vocals and lightly funkified synths. Head on over to mansionsonthemoon.com for much more of their soon to be released Light Years EP. Peace. Continue reading “Mansions On The Moon // Athens (Video)”

The album Watered Lawns opens with, “The Air” and within minutes you know you’re in a good place. The Music of Raleigh Moncrief is populated with cotton candy raindrops and beautiful music on the breeze, much like a music box high on its own supply. The song “I Just Saw,” possesses a lushness which pairs well, or at least equals what one feels when looking at Peter Paul Rubens’ The Hermit and the Sleeping Angelica, that, or being stupefied by the latest Victoria Secret’s ad, you pick.
Raleigh Moncrief has until recently been one of those shadowy figures chillin’ in the background, but now he offers something wholly original and enchanting. RM’s acumen as an engineer isn’t to be dismissed, his work on the Dirty Projectors’ Bitte Orca, is well-noted. But now, Mr. Moncrief is stepping out of the shadows and into the light of day, and the results are seductively dope. Peace. Continue reading “Raleigh Moncrief – I Just Saw”
