For Tiny Mix Tapes : ( My favorite paragraph ): Christy & Emily No Rest Klangband ...In fact, every instrumental decision the duo makes is something I'd stand up and applaud; Irmler's deft production is nothing to sneeze at, either. No Rest , in that way, mixes the perfect amount of seriousness and detachment with the adamant and the white-knuckled, both committed and reserved. The problem enters — and it's a big problem — when the lyrics begin. It's not [...]

A bit weak on the band name side of things, but what they lack in a creative name they make up for with killer songs. Christy & Emily are a female Brooklyn duo, who are making some rad psychedelic/chilled out folk/pop music. It's hard to generalize the duo, but that's what I came up with, [...]

A slight change in programming: I'm pushing back writing and posting my favorite albums list til the quiet period between Christmas and New Year's when I'll have time and energy to give these records their due. (And when I'm out of the office for almost two weeks, woo!). Basically, the list will go up exactly one hour after you've stopped caring about such things. So be it. Instead: a mop-up post of good EPs and reissues and music I loved (sometimes obsessively) in 2007 that wasn't released in 2007. And other bits n' bobs. I will [...]

Image: swirlingthoughts Island Song - Christy & Emily I could understand if you thought this was a little underwhelming as an expression of island .
