Adult Swim has been on a roll with music lately. If you recognize the name at all, most know Adult Swim from their late night spot on Cartoon Network, giving home to cult classic TV like Aqua Teen Hunger Force, Sealab 2021, and Tim & Eric Awesome Show Great Job!, and also ridiculous parodies including Childrens Hospital and NTSF:SD:SUV. But last year, Adult Swim curated an excellent Singles Program , giving viewers a free compilation of 13 exclusive singles from some fantastic names on the indie scene, including Wye Oak, Wavves, Flying [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-13T15:00:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4947107/fenses-radio-show-may-10-2013/
I've been getting into several new albums of late, and when that happens, I often want to play several songs from the same band on my radio show. I restrained myself, narrowing it down to a pair each; that's the theme of tonight's show - doubles. I'll be playing back-to-back tracks from each artist I play tonight, including new stuff by The Besnard Lakes, Wolf People, King Tuff, and Arrington de Dionyso's Malaikat dan Singa. We begin, however, with a band I originally covered way back in 2010: Young Hunting.

For Adult Swim's forthcoming collaborative album, Garage Swim, King Tuff teamed up with Gap Dream for "She's On Fire." The single is a psychedelic mind-trip, unabashedly and liberally incorporating some heavy reverby guitar work. What makes it all the more alluring, though, is its unpolished sound, which is probably why "She's On Fire" has been [...]]]> text/html 2013-05-05T04:05:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/4932449/best-new-music-releases-week-of-april-30th-iggy/

Whether you're feeling moody or in a mood to dance, you'll find what you need among this week's new releases. Topping the list of must-buys in record stores today comes from U.K. trio Daughter , who were a standout during our CMJ broadcast last year with their highly emotive and engaging performance . Our Music Director, Don Yates, calls If You Leave , their anticipated debut of "an often-moving set of dark, goth-tinged folk-pop," for its "haunting, atmospheric sound featuring melancholy reverbed guitars, stark percussion, smoky vocals and lovelorn lyrics."
