Click here to view the embedded video. På I Am The Dot s senaste EP Bridges , som kan beställas på kassett genom The Great Pumpkin-förgreningen Fight the Future , återfinns det synnerligen silkeslena spåret Formaldehyde , vilket nu har blivit med video - gjord av den talangfulla kollage-artisten Stephanie Cafarella . Som bonus kommer här även en exklusiv förhandslyssning på låten Honey and vinegar , vilken också finns med på den finfina sexspårs-EP:n I Am The Dot - Formaldehyde
I Am The Dot is the project of Zach Tipton, who hails from the ever-burgeoning Colorado indie scene. His Bridges EP is the first release on Fight the Future Cassettes , the new tape label for the awesome blog The Great Pumpkin . Tipton's music is a great lesson in moderation, especially in 2010 when the year's music will be remembered more for it excess (thanks Kanye and Sufjan) than the delicate and precise instrumentation you'll find on Bridges . On "We Have Not Arrived" you can hear fleeting trumpets hissing in the background, a simple [...]
fight the future presents: i am the dot ~bridges~ I Am The Dot is the recording project of Denver, Colorado's Zach Tipton. Bridges is his new six song EP that was recorded throughout the summer and fall of 2010. The EP features four smooth tracks of I Am The Dot's experimental, psychedelic soul, and two remixes. The original songs venture into new territory for Tipton as he explores the use [...]
![I Am The Dot: The Crown [Video]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/2748103_lg.jpg)
Zach Tipton, a.k.a. I Am The Dot , has an irreparable and distinguished eye for inducing visual energy. His latest single, “The Crown” is an experimentally charged pop ballad that could very well be about anything you wish. But, with a very direct and certainly touching display of childhood imagery, his personal vision will become bloody obvious as you watch a young Zach roller-skate his way through a standard impressionable childhood. This song, from his latest EP The Royal Few , is about growth. It is about the spirit that [...]
Hello All, For those of you following this blog since the first post you know that the initial idea was to have the blog turn in a record label. Last fall that dream was almost brought into fruition, but do to the actual finances involved in pressing records I had to back down from the idea...luckily the band I was working with has become close friends. After a long time of thinking about it and gathering inspiration from a bunch of wonderful people ( Mirror Universe , Patient Sounds , Deathbomb Arc , The [...]
One of the blogs I frequent and trust with new music is Knox Road. There are a few people who, when posting new music, I'll always listen to because I trust their taste, and Knox Road is one of them. Last week they posted about I Am The Dot and before I got the chance to get in contact with the artist, the artist had got in touch with me. Making my life easier is always appreciated, although I still refuse to use those drive-through banks, that shit's taking it too far. Anyway, the guy behind I [...]
I Am The Dot is Zachary Tipton's solo endeavor when he's not performing as one half of Denver's outfit Young Coyotes . Since leaving Colorado to relocate in Georgia, Zach seems to have put focus on his new project, and I Am The Dot's kind of stripped-down experimental pop with some fine folky elements is indeed something instantly adorable. Listen to Zach's latest single The Crown (released as a two-song EP The Royal Few b/w the equally splendid Liquid Gold via his bandcamp ) and make sure you also [...]
I Am The Dot is a musical project. Zachary Tipton being the dot. Check out his nostalgic home video-y music video for his song 'The Crown'. It's pretty spectacular. Oh, and check out his bandcamp here . I Am The Dot ~ The Crown from Zachary Tipton on Vimeo . I Am The Dot- The Crown I Am The Dot- Liquid Gold
I Am The Dot is the project of Zach Tipton, from Georgia by way of Denver. He recently released a new EP, titled The Royal Few , which you can get on the major cheap (one dollar...) from his Bandcamp . Tipton has plenty of material under his I Am The Dot moniker, including five official releases, all displaying Tipton's expansive knowledge of pop arrangements, with layered harmonies, handclaps, and an array of instrumental noise. For the vocals, think Adam Baker of the Annuals . While The Royal Few [...]
Tune into UtahFM every Saturday night (except this Saturday June 19th as I will be on a much needed vacation) 9-10:30 MDT to catch me spinning (digitally) the latest and greatest... You can listen to a replay of the show at your convenience for the next two weeks right here . UtahFM is looking for a few good men & women to host shows. If you think you are interesting and others think you are interesting and you have an interesting idea for a show... do something about it and contact me. [...]
Nothing bums me out more than an awesome indie band that releases an infectiously perfect and blissful song that goes unnoticed by the mass populous. That's pretty much what happened with Denver's amazing duo, Young Coyotes. "Momentary Drowning" is everything that's great about music: Woahs. Handclaps. Dreamy vocals. A melody that takes you by surprise at almost every turn. [...]

"Zach Tipton, you bastard. Why'd you have to go and make this god damned beautiful little album? Don't you realize that every other musician you know is now going to become incredibly jealous of you? As if they weren't already. I remember seeing his other/old band open for Phil Elverum at the now defunct and oft-missed Brooks Center and being blown away by his (Zach's) presence. It's one of those rare feelings you get when you see or meet someone. Like, you know they're going to be famous? Or do something deserving of fame. Enter the IATD EP. This deserves [...]
Americans may well be more familiar with the name Carole King than I, given her greater success on these shores. On examination of some song titles, however, it turns out I'm more familiar than I thought.... You've Got A Friend , Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow? , Natural Woman ; all are s ongs I likely know from movie scores but for which the singer was never highlighted, as happens a great deal. [...]
