mp3: Emily Reo - Blue Canoe The ever-so-wonderful Emily Reo sent me another new track today, the hypnotic and hazy "Blue Canoe." It might just be my favorite of hers yet. Emily is currently hard at work writing and recording new material for her next release. She will also have a new jam for everyone (including myself) to gush over on the upcoming WGWB Volume 2 compilation. Get excited. Also, for [...]
Thanks to the Decibel Tolls for pointing me to this new cover Emily Reo did of Built to Spill's "Cars." Unfortunately I'm not really that up on my BTS, so I had to youtube the original. Embarrassing, I know. MP3: Emily Reo - Car (Built to Spill) And if you missed it, here's her original track that [...]
by kevin diamond On a calm day, after the final winds of a storm of creative excess had passed, a wounded mind seeking sanctuary. A simple melody and a cushion of key strokes, wood on metal, echos of struck drums to keep time. Unwound yarn in a pile on the floor, a candy coated path with the clean rubbed off and the dirty exposed. Emily Reo , from Orlando, Florida, brings a haunt of a tune to our ears today, "Metal On Your Skin." Think: Beach House, Lo-Fi, [...]
mp3: Emily Reo - Metal On Your Skin I name-dropped this Emily Reo track in yesterday's post . I just can't stop listening to it, or the entire album for that matter. When that happens I feel rather greedy for not sharing. Enjoy having it take over your day (in the best way possible) too.
And it sounds muy bueno. Enjoy "Car." Emily Reo is on some next level hauntological shit. POSSIBLY RELEVANT ::: Emily Reo's Haunted Graffiti MP3 ::: Emily Reo - Car

mp3: Emily Reo - Cars Emily Reo just sent over this delightful new track "Cars." Drone and dreamy organ carry this jam as light gentle blips slowly escape from the background. And the voice! It's a beauty, plain and simple. You can buy Emily's album Minha Gatinha on cassette or cd over at A Dracula Records . It features the wonderful track "Metal On Your Skin" which is worth the sticker price just by itself.

There's a dangling gap between Emily 's voice, her hynotic keyboards, those glistening bells, and wherever our ears are supposed to be during these enchanting few minutes that makes the danger in this jam all the more appealing. Built To Spill has always deserved a massage this enticing. Catch Emily at Total Bummer fest with a bunch of our pals, jealous we can't make it. Emily Reo - Car (Built To Spill cover)
Emily Reo has been getting a lot of love from music bloggers that I trust, but whose tastes don't always strongly overlap with mine. Turns out, though, that this is one of the times where we can all agree. Get Off the Coast loves her, the Decibel Tolls thinks she's rad and now I'm on [...]
After a year and a half, this blog finally seems to be at the point where the MySpace electro DJs have removed me from their mailing lists and their void is being replaced by personal emails from artists I actually want to write about. I awoke to one such email last week and have been eager to share her sound with you. Emily Reo cites Kria Brekkan and Beach House as influences, which means this week makes for the perfect timing to introduce you to her music. Hollow and oceanic [...]
Sunny good-times Orlando doesn't necessarily seem the type of milieu that begets sequestered and supremely haunting lo-fi. But it did, and Emily Reo is decidedly in a league of her own. Simple synths, swells of tape warmth, junky drum machines, a touch of vibraphone, and distorted, melodic, post doo wop vocals certainly evokes Tickley Feather or a totally fucked version of Beach House. However, Reo adopts a more cathedral-tinged approach, demonstrated on "Metal For Your Skin" - a song too expansive for the bedroom. "Tell Us All" features a masterful incorporation of the evasive "circus waltz" that you no longer hear much in [...]
