[mp3] Cloud Nothings: "Hey Cool Kid" We always love to write about good things happening to good bands, and good labels. Today comes word that Cloud Nothings , one of the few bands out there very much deserving of their "buzz" status, have signed to Carpark Records and will release a compilation of all of their scattered releases over the course of 2010. Turning On comes out October 12. From the press release: The incendiary Turning On EP, the ultra limited and rollicking Group Tightener seven inch single, and two [...]
Continuing a rapid rise through the underground which began barely a year ago, Cleveland's lo-fi pop heroes, Cloud Nothings, have signed a record deal with Carpark Records , As part of the agreement, Carpark will be expanding and reissuing the band's Turning On EP on October 14th. The new release will contain four additional tracks previously available as singles. In related news, Dylan Baldi and the rest of the band are currently in Baltimore recording their first proper album. You can expect that one to drop some time in the latter half of 2011.
Cloud Nothings is Dylan Baldi, a 19-year-old from Cleveland that creates music his buddies would probably call outdated, if only for the fact that it hearkens back to a time when record stores were relevant. His interpretation of power-pop is not without its modern traits, but overall the result is one of throwback excellence in [...]
Dylan Baldi brought his Cloud Nothings songbook to the Daytrotter studios recently. He sprinted through four tracks from his Turning On LP, he likely sipped a few soft drinks with the other underage guys in the band, and all in all, he turned out one of the more effervescent, listenable , immediate Daytrotter sessions we've heard in a while. Hear it here right now and marvel at Baldi's portrait while you do.
Cloud Nothings recently perfomed a session on Daytrotter. Following the recent trend of a few bands they played two tracks from their debut album "Turning On" and two unreleased songs. You can download the session for free here and the setlist is below. Cloud Nothings...

Welcome to our first Guest Lecture. It's a new feature, wherein we'll hand over the reins of the blog to an artist we love, giving them our forum to write about a topic of their choosing. (Yes, we ripped this idea off from another music blog; to our credit, we did come up with a cooler name for it.) In the future, expect the occasional Guest Lecture from popular independent artists on a diverse range of topics. In related news, if you represent and/or are Stephen Malkmus, we'd love to hear your thoughts on immigration policy [...]

Click here to view the embedded video. Things I learned at the Blitzen Trapper show (an incomplete list): 1.) There are some really good songs on Destroyer of the Void . I've been struggling to get into the new record (probably because of how much I love the previous two), but Blitzen Trapper's live treatment of the new material sold me on much of it. "Love and Hate" is an explosion of [...]
Kevin and I have criss-crossed the midwest to see Blitzen Trapper. We hoofed it to a snowy Buffalo to see them open up for Iron and Wine in Ani DiFranco's converted church (and ran over a deer carcass on the way home) and hauled our asses to Detroit to see them at the Magic Stick (stopping in Bowling Green for Pollyeyes). Each time it's been worth the gas money and effort; dudes slay live. In the time that we've been blogging, however, Blitzen Trapper have bypassed our fair city here on America's north coast. [...]
It's time to listen to the tracks I have not posted recently. Here is the next NOT POSTED mix. These tracks meander from the more traditional indie rock sounds to the more electronic and end with metal. Listen. Downloadables: Revival (mp3) by Deerhunter Nausea ( X Cover) (mp3) by YACHT Elixor Fixor (mp3) by Swahili Blonde Dead People (mp3) by Cloud Nothings [...]
In La Puente, a rather small community somewhere in LA county, Kevin Greenspon spends his days with something that's becoming more and more rare in our all-digital internet age: Running the one-man miracle Bridgetown Records , he has devoted himself to packing and sending strictly limited CDr and cassette tape releases by hand picked artists, most probably without ever even getting close to be in the black. Of course, those small imprints have always existed, but it probably needed that nostalgia-infused cassette revival [...]

Killer Lo-Fi-Songs sind das, die Dylan Baldi aus Cleveland in unbeständiger Regelmässigkeit raushaut. Neuster Streich die 7inch "Didn't You". Es gibt einige Urban Legends über Dylan Baldi. Eine geht zum Beispiel so: Baldi hätte entweder einen Gig mit Real Estate und Woods spielen können oder aber an einem präsenzpflichtigen Schulprojekt an seinem College teilnehmen sollen. Er hat sich für das Konzert entschieden. Letzten Dezember hat Baldi auf Bridgetown Records sein Debüt veröffentlicht. "Turning On" bietet acht Killer Lo-Fi-Songs mit dem Höhepunkt "Hey [...]
