Active Child is the man. The more I give You Are All I See a listen, I appreciate it more every time. Seriously, if you have not listened yet, get on it. This is the new video for his collab with How To Dress Well , called “Playing House”. It’s quite angelic but I would not expect to have a face staring at me me for half the video. I would usually think that an artist like AC, would want to be sort of secluded and mysterious, just like all his music is? Guess not. [...]
Earlier in the summer, when it became apparent that Pat Grossi's debut record as Active Child , You Are All I See , would include a collaboration with r&b transformer Tom Krell a.k.a. How To Dress Well , it put a lot of attention on Grossi's project, and he even claimed that there would be an eventual video for “Playing House,” which would have a bit of a “house party” vibe to it. Now, said video for the fan favourite has finally surfaced but it seems to be more engrossed in the artists' [...]

Ich hab noch ein wenig meine Schwierigkeiten mit Active Child , aber das Video zu " Playing House " featuring How To Dress Well bringt uns jetzt schon ein großes Stück mehr zusammen. Vielleicht werd ich mir am Ende tatsächlich noch die neue LP You Are All I See gönnen, welche bei uns am 21. Oktober erscheint. Active Child - Facebook Active Child - Homepage
Earlier in the summer, we posted " Playing House ," a sort of summit meeting of forlorn bedroom-indie falsetto addicts Active Child and How To Dress Well. That track now has a video, and whether it's intended or not, the thing comes off as being very, very silly. It's full of cheesed-out smoke effects and quivering tear-lined eyeballs and overblown lip-sync theatrics, and our friend Chris Weingarten has already rendered exactly the verdict you'd expect . Isaac Ravishankara directs. Watch it below. Read More...

In what can well be described as a falsetto meeting of chillwave minds, Active Child (with How To Dress Well) has just been revamped by Chad Valley

Active Child , How to Dress Well and one sexy lady play house in the video for Playing House , one of the highlights on Active Child’s ethereal You Are All I See . Justcuzitfeelsgood.
One of my top 5 tunes of the year thus far gets a video by Isaac Ravishankara. Active Child's You Are All I See was a recent album of the week . Meanwhile both Active Child and HTDW were remixed recently by Chad Valley and Solar Bears respectively. Listen below. Active Child - “Playing House (Chad Valley Remix)" Solar Bears - Suicide Dream 3 (Solar Bears Remix)

Will from Yours Truly (one of our all time favorites) asked Solar Bears to do an official remix for How To Dress Well , and the guys were nice enough to send the track over early this morning. The Bears wrap HTDW 's vocoded vocals in a lush cinematic timbre, which gradually unfolds into a sea of empyrean sublimity. This is some of their best work to date, and you should stay tuned for more information [...]

Just got back from Kennedy land, alive and well. Cape Cod is always a blast. We were going to travel Nantucket too, but never really got around to it. We instead soaked in piles of grease and cheap American alcohol. Well, no. Cheap American bought Canadian Club, and smoked moderately priced American cigarettes. We did not sail, but instead took a twenty-five horsepower pull-behind-my-yacht-in-case-w e-need-to-get-to-shore boat instead. The tide pulled in, and I steered this boat with embarrassingly low skill level. I resisted the urge to wear salmon coloured shorts. Kelly green ones too I got a [...]
Normally, when we think of How to Dress Well, we think of intimate moments, hushed warmth that feels so organic and personal. Maybe to mess with our expectations or maybe just because they felt like ... read more
Active Child Playing House Featuring How To Dress Well (Chad Valley Remix) I wasn’t going to post this, but I can’t stop listening. I am a big fan of all three of these artists. Chad Valley did a fantastic job of highlighting the best qualities of this track. The remix puts a heavy emphasis on Pat Grossi and Tom Krell’s haunting harmonies, with most of the R&B bassline removed, allowing the intricate piano notes to trickle through. Love this.
