Seasonal Affective Disorder is a real disease (check WebMD) that affects dozens of people, maybe hundreds. To cope, some people take Vitamin D, some people use sun lamps, and some people drink themselves stupid. But there's a new way to get through these dark days of winter, to stay on the sunny side of life even when the outside world is gray and sad and miserable and you've gained so much weight since Thanksgiving that you can't wear anything but leggings or tights. Beach House 's new album Teen Dream is 10 tracks [...]

8.4 /10 2000'ler, kimi gruplar için gösteriş, meydan okuma, üstüne de bol hit çıkarmaysa Beach House'un müziği için zamansız tanımı hiç de fena olmaz. Geçtiğimiz on yılın ortasında çıkan Baltimore'lu ikili bir kilise orgu ve ruhtan inşa edilmiş vokal ile melankoliye yeni kanallar açarak yoğun bir drama armağan etmişlerdi. Nihayetinde müzikleri heyecan duygusundan ziyade, ehemmiyet ile besleniyordu. Yaptıkları yalın ve rafine müzik, tamamen duygulara yönelikti, ne dinleyicileri şaşırtmaya da yeltendiler ne de illüzyona. Etrafta oldukça samimi bir müzik vardı. Yeterince gönül çelici iki albümden sonra yeni Beach House [...]

Ghostly International gave Bad Fotography the heads up on Phantogram 's upcoming release, Eyelid Movies . Phantogram (formerly Charlie Everywhere) has recently signed to Barsuk Records , and while the LP will be out on Ghostly International, the CD version will be released on Barsuk. This New York band reminds me a bit of Caribou , Beach House , Blonde Redhead etc. Actually, they were recommended to Ghostly by School of Seven Bells . When I'm Small has that old vinyl crackling effect layered over Sarah [...]

Flying Lotus and Warped records have announced the release of a new album in May , Is work is acclaimed and a unanimous sign of irreverence and a poetical rawness. " Cosmogramma " will have contributions from Thom Yorke ,Laura Darlington and Ravi Coltrane. "Flying Lotus, for me, is like the Hendrix of his generation" Mary Anne Hobbs Mp3 | Flying Lotus Freebies 1 Half of the Austrian downtempo duo Kruder & Dorfmeister , Peter [...]
I have been inundated with millions of e-mails, letters and phone calls from irate fans angry at me for ignoring the Grammys (well, the other side of my split personality figured it deserved a mention). Yes, I forgot to mention the Grammys in my last post, mostly because I don't care. I really don't want to sound snobby about it (and I'm only parroting what everybody else already says) and this is painfully bleeding obvious, but the Grammys aren't exactly about the music (duh!). I'm fine with that, but at least be honest with people. You're honouring sales figures and [...]
Είναι δεν είναι συγγενής του Michel Legrand η Victoria Legrand του διδύμου Beach House δεν στοιχηματίζω και τις μετοχές μου στη Deutsche Bank. Η αναμφισβήτητη εκλεκτική συγγένεια πάντως είναι με τους Fleetwood Mac. Τόσο που αναρωτιέμαι μήπως πρέπει να αναθεωρήσω την άποψή μου για το γκρουπ που δε μου άρεσε ποτέ ιδιαιτέρως. Όντας όμως πολύ φαν του ονειροθλιμένου αυτού ντουέτου από τη Βαλτιμόρη, αντιπαρέρχομαι την ομοιότητα με αυτό που κάποτε θεωρούσα "ξενέρωτο ροκ" και αφήνομαι να βυθιστώ σε ένα χλιαρό μπάνιο dreampop. Έχω τίποτε καλύτερο να προτείνω για ένα βροχερό κυριακάτικο πρωινό; [...]

(EXCLUSIVE) The duo of Fo Chief and Kontrast of the steadily rising Fresh Breath Committee have taken one big leap higher or as they would say, "So Fuckin' High. Blown out of mind." The entitled track, "Unwind" features fellow FBC mate, Catch Lungs. "Unwind" will be released sometime soon on a mixtape tentatively called, "Cannonball Soup" (A reference to Cannonball Adderly I wonder?). The track sees Kontrast take on a deeper, "sexier" style and features a dope beat reminiscent of Pete Rock's... Read more at www.SFCritic.com

In this episode of video roundup, St. Vincent plays a feminist book store, Broken Bells ( Shins / Danger Mouse collab) wander around a dark highway, Beach House shows us a world dominated by silver people, and Taken by Trees retreats to nature for a cover of Animal Collective 's "My Girls."

Michael Palmieri When I wrote up Sharon Van Etten's debut album Because I Was In Love back in October , I felt a bit bad about giving it just a passing mention as I liked it more than just a sentence or two might have implied. But at the time my web hosting was self-destructing and I wanted to get something out there before her local appearance opening for Rain Machine , so a cursory mention it was. But with there seeming to be even [...]

Filed under: Down the Front! Location: 310 Uxbridge Road, London W12 7LJ Website: http://www.bushhallmusic.co.uk / Capacity: 400 Come to see: It's difficult to pin down any 'typical' sort of band to play Bush Hall, one of the most highly-regarded small venues in the capital. Granted, the west London club has long enjoyed a reputation as a hub of folk-tinged fare, with shows from the likes of Sufjan Stevens , Kurt Wagner, [...]
Check out Beach House performing "Take Care", my favorite song from Teen Dream. Sounds just as lovely live. I like the editing at the end. Caught me off guard!
