In the past year, Dev Hynes has really come into his own as a producer, helping to usher in great stoner-pop work from singers like Solange and Sky Ferreira. And he's still recording on his own, under his Blood Orange moniker. This past weekend, he put together a home-recorded cover of " Cyan ," a single from his friend and fellow thoughtful pop-music traveler Kindness, and it's got much of the same woozy melodic confidence that's made his recent productions so great.

[author-name] In the past year, Dev Hynes has really come into his own as a producer, helping to usher in great stoner-pop work from singers like Solange and Sky Ferreira.

Dev Hynes dominated 2012, there's no question of that. The musical polymath has got to have his hands full just writing and producing for other artists after his most recent work for Sky Ferreira and Solange Knowles , but he's still finding time to release music under his solo Blood Orange moniker. "Cyan" is a home recorded cover of fellow English musician Kindness and has Hynes displaying his assertively unique lo-fi glam R&B sound to more of an extreme than his collaborations. Like everything else he touches, the vibe of the track [...]

As a break from all his recent production work, Dev Hynes (a.k.a. Blood Orange ) took to the comforts of his own home last night to record a cover of Kindness ' "Cyan." The Solange and Sky Ferreira conspirator took drum samples from the latter's "Everything Is Embarassing" along with vocals from Cable's Tracy Antonopoulos to create this cozy, lo-fi take on Adam Bainbridge's indie-disco standout. Grab a copy of the track below. MP3: Blood Orange - "Cyan (Kindness Cover)"
Blood Orange has just posted this smooth slow jam version of Kindness's pop gem 'CYAN'. It's hazier and more tripped...

Aunque en los últimos meses no hemos escuchado muchas cosas por parte de Blood Orange , cabe mencionar que Dev Hynes es un tipo muy ocupado ya que aunque no ha presentado algo de su segundo material bajo este nombre, si se ha dedicado a producir tracks para chicas como Sky Ferreira y Solange, lo cual obviamente ha estado haciendo que su nombre poco a poco vaya creciendo dentro del sector de productores que están en el juego en la actualidad, así que por este simple hecho le estaré perdonando que sólo se de a la tarea [...]

Yes, it's 2013. Yes, we're behind schedule. But allow us to present the final part of our best of 2012 album rundown in all it's glory... 5. Bat For Lashes - The Haunted Man It’s pleasing to see an artist who grows steadily throughout their career – Bat For Lashes is a prime example, and we feel that on third album ‘The Haunted Man’ (ably assisted by respected producer Dan Carey ) Natasha Khan has finally reached her full potential. Having found previous [...]
Missed in 2012 Kindness's "House" was one of those tracks that I fell in love with immediately. It easily ranks as one of my favorite pop songs, ever. Ended up being one of those situations where I waited too long to post it and soon it I'd gone too far. Well now I can tell [...]

There were an abundance of awesome music released in 2012, making it yet another difficult year to summarize concisely. We did our best to narrow it down for this mix, but (like every year since we've started) we easily had enough picks to fill a 3 CD set. Many of our top tracks didn't make the cut, but the 30 tracks on here certainly make for a decent glimpse at 2012. Shawn Ryan & Ed Blammo - 2012 Highlights Mediafire • [...]

La última lista compilatoria del año 2012 es aquella que engloba y premia al trabajo musical en su conjunto, a los lanzamientos tomados como un concepto y un esfuerzo global por entregarnos algo nuevo, algo que no hayamos escuchado con anterioridad y que escape a los éxitos solitarios de una canción o un remix: nos referimos al conteo de nuestros 20 discos favoritos del año. Al respecto, el 2012 fue un año que, sumando y restando, estuvo acorde a las expectativas y que fue testigo de grandes nacimientos, de varias consagraciones y de uno que otro fracaso inevitable.

Artwork: Yannis Dragasakis Here we go. It may be the first days of the New Year, but we're still listening to our favorite albums, tracks, remixes and EPs of 2012. It was certainly an amazing year for us during which we started our radio show "OFF The Road", we shared with you some exclusive La.Ga.Sta. mixes by Duke Dumont, Beni, Pharao Black Magic, and we dropped our free 14-track "Late Summer Compilation 20123 with lots of fresh tunes, already downloaded by more than 20.000 vroomers! Many thanks for your support. Today, [...]

Musikåret 2012 var jag så mycket en hycklare. Jag romantiserade en svunnen göteborgsscen fylld av ölklibbiga fatwor tillsammans med Joel Alme i Björkhagen, men jag grät också när Olle Ljungström sjöng The Sounds Rock 'n' Roll. När jag insåg vilken fantastisk poplåt det är, när jag fattade att jag inte längre behövde hata mitt 10-åriga jags musiksmak med samma ängsliga emfas. 2012 var året då jag trodde jag skulle skriva väldigt mycket om musik. Vilket jag inte gjorde. Jag skrev ganska mycket. Jag drabbades av Damien Jurado, Mike Hadreas, Sarah Assbring, Adam Bainbridge, Jason Pierce. Av Erik de [...]

No podemos recibir este 2013 si es que no despedimos 2012 como se lo merece. Los últimos doce meses fueron excelentes para la música de varios estilos, con buenos regresos y sorprendentes apariciones. Para tratar de que no se nos escape nada, hemos organizado cuatro listas con distintas categorías: discos, remixes, canciones bailables y no bailables, que reflejan el consenso entre quienes hacemos esta página. Hoy vamos a empezar con las canciones no bailables. Quizás la categoría más amplia y más difícil, ya que muchos de nuestros discos favoritos tenían al menos tres o cuatro cada uno. Eso [...]

2012 ne fut pas une année musicale pourrie mais pas une grandiose non plus. J'ai eu du mal à choisir un top 1, j'ai même pendant quelques instants hésité à commencer mon top au top 2... Mais bon, le vainqueur est beau puisque c'est Field Music qui gagne. Wouaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii iis! Même si ce n'est pas le meilleur album des frères « dieux » Brewis, il est au dessus du lot (46). Les chansons singulières sont toujours là mais c'est surtout leur style qui a fait la différence: aucun [...]

Bonjour, je suis nouveau ici mais j'aime beaucoup lire vos articles. C'est très amusant de mettre des « w » à la place des « r » même si parfois on dirait que vous êtes Michel Leeb qui se moque des gens de couleur. Je me permets de partager avec vous ma compil' de l'année. Elle contient plein de morceaux extraits de disques dont vous avez déjà parlé : Ça n'est pas facile de tout faire tenir sur un disque (car comme pour roubignole , le choix d'un [...]
