PS22 :: Round and Round



A great cover of Ariel's Pink Haunted Graffiti's "Round and Round". Totally awesome that these kids teachers is teaching them contemporary songs, especially from the indie scene. Read more here.

Kurt Vile :: Baby's Arms



Hard to tell with all this rain, but it's spring now. And with the slow release of Winter's grip on the days, we all could use some music to cozy up with. Here's a consideration.

tUnE-YarDs :: Bizness

Amazing video for an equally amazing song. Grab the mp3 here, from 4AD records.

Burial and Four Tet :: Moth



Got this idea off the youtube page but tweaked it a little (step one).
Step one: Smoke a blunt.
Step two: go to rainymood.com and press play.
Step three: Play the track and make sure it's the right volume (loud).
Step four: Dig.

Burial, Four Tet and Thom Yorke :: Ego & Mirror

Wait, wait, wait, wait. Hold up. Burial. Four Tet. AND Thom Yorke?!!!?! SPLOOGE! The three have been loosely tied together through various remixes and collaborative (Burial and Four Tet) but I never saw this coming. All are AMAZING, ground-breaking artists and though it is supposed to be split with Burial on the A side (Ego) and Thom and Four Tet on the B side (Mirror) it certainly sounds as if everyone had a influence in both tracks. The 12" vinyl reportedly sold out instantly, but if you dig it you can sign-up to there mailing list and they'll inform you of re-stock. These tracks are just gorgeous and mind-blowing. Hope you enjoy.

Coachella Days 40, 39, 38, 37



Glasser :: Apply
Trippy video, sweet almost meditative song.



Bright Eyes :: Four Winds
I think this album, Cassadaga, and this song show another side of Bright Eyes that people who don't know the artists dont realize exists. I much prefer his folk/ country inspired music to his better known emo-esque work.



Animal Collective :: Peacebone
An amazing track. I love the dissonace and chaos in the begining and how it all vibrates into place forming this dancy frenetic hook that just circles around you until you're part of the frenzy. It's amazing, literally the song that got turned me on to Animal Collective. Also check out "My Gurls" for a great song set to an awesomely trippy video.



Presets :: Are You The One?
I'm intriuged by this bands energy, and hopefully get to check them out down South.
