what did you want to see, what did you want to be when you grew up? it's a perfect question posed by a duo still reveling in childlike wonder, both currently making music that touches the oldest of souls. it's a fairytale collaboration just waiting to be made, taking place under the envelop of bradford cox's solo atlas sound project, and featuring the buoyant vocals of animal collective's noah lennox, aka panda bear . the fruit of that partnership is "walkabout", a track revolving the simplest of loops, built upon a sample of "what am i [...]

" "Animal Collective confirmed to get first officially licensed Grateful Dead sample! "Phil Lesh loved the track..." This was an inevitable confirmation, but now that it's official we're just that much closer to receiving an intended version of "Blue Sky." So ready for this groove. Animal Collective - What Would I Want Sky? (live) (via GvB) I've been anxiously awaiting Atlas Sound 's Logos for a while now, but after the announcement of a tune with Panda Bear ...well [...]

Como ya lo habíamos comentado la semana pasada, Bradford Cox lanzará el 20 de octubre Logos , el segundo LP de su proyecto solista Atlas Sound . Este disco contiene varias colaboraciones interesantes, pero quizás la que más llama la atención es en la que participa Noah Lennox ( Animal Collective ) o mejor conocido como Panda Bear . Cuando estos dos genios de nuestra generación se unen no hay que [...]

Well, this sounds...just like as you'd expect an Atlas Sound and Panda Bear collaboration to sound! Summery, unpolished, 'electronic', chambered, layered, ambient. Wasn't a huge fan of Bradford's first solo album, or Panda Bear's Person Pitch for that matter, but I'm quite looking forward to the new one if it shares some of the ethereal charm of this record. Love how that looped, chiming sample makes the whole song sound so much more upbeat and poppy. MP3: Atlas Sound + Panda Bear - Walkabout
Enjoy the full session here. Last week, he played a brilliant gig at NYC's Le Poisson Rouge. Earlier this month, I interviewed Chris Garneau. MP3: Chris Garneau - No More Pirates
Atlas Sound's second full-length, Logos to be released in the States via Kranky on Oct. 20

Bradford Cox no para, la música le sale hasta por los codos. El año pasado con Deerhunter entregó uno de los mejores discos de 2008 ( Microcastle/Weird Era Co. ) y también fue el tiempo en que estrenó LP con Atlas Sound; un proyecto solista que es más personal, experimental y noisy que su banda principal. Este año volvió a repetir con Deerhunter al lanzar el Rainwater Cassette Exchange EP y sorprendiéndonos a todos ya anuncia que lo hará a su vez con Atlas Sound. [...]
Bradford Cox , multi-talented head of Deerhunter, is certainly a prolific character. Alongside his work with the Athens-based indie band, Cox has also kept busy with Atlas Sound , a far more introspective and atmospheric project. His 2008 debut, Let the Blind Lead Those Who Can See But Cannot Feel , was a critical success across the board, and Cox intends to keep momentum with a new release on Kranky, Logos . Slated for release on October 20th, the latest offering from Atlas Sound will feature collaborations by Stereolab's Laetitia Sadier and Animal Collective/Panda Bear's [...]
There's been an overhaul done of the MTV onscreen look, which Creative Review covers extensively . This caught my eye, though: We use the word refresh rather than rebrand as the MTV logo is still recognisable - the new logo (above) is, in fact, the old logo - but in MTV's new look, the logo remains black on a white ground - no colour, pattern or texture will ever adorn it - which is a change from MTV of old where the idents were based on the logo being played around with. "Now [...]

Believe me when I say Logo are going places. They're a relatively new duo, of which one half is Raoul7000 - the man responsible for one of the coolest disco edits I've heard to date and excellent blog-of-few-words. They've got the whole dark French thing going on, however it's expressed in a far more tasteful way than you might usually hear. They've only done half a dozen or so songs so far but I have big expectations of a broad range of inspired and quality music. Trust me! Logo - La Vie [...]

The GOP seems to have lost it's way since the Democrats clean sweep in November, trying desperately to fling outrageous-shit-lies and hoping it sticks behind the fat bodice of Rush Limbaugh. It's clear that the GOP specifically, and not the conservative movement, has no ideas on how to help the country when members of the RNC plan to meet next week to "approve a resolution rebranding Democrats as the 'Democrat Socialist Party.' " Really? It's about as ridiculous if the Democrats met to pass a resolution rebranding the Republicans as the "Republican Fascist Party." I guess, [...]

Or maybe they did and just didn't care. Anywho, this is the logo design for the Catholic Church's Archdiocesan Youth Commission in 1973. It even won an award from the Art Directors Club of Los Angeles. That right there folks is the epitomy of sour milk funny. [ Manticores Moustache via Buzzfeed ]

This is the Detroit Lion's new logo. Ooh scary. The script they chose to use makes it seem more like a fuckin' wave or a surf shop, instead of a football team. I think they need to be more realistic with their logos, so their fans don't expect too much. Check the better alternatives after the jump. The Detroit Fingers Crossed It's all based on luck. They're not gonna hit you. [...]

IMPORTANTE! VOTA LA CANZONE PIU' BELLA D'EUROPA! CLICCA QUI L'avevano in qualche modo lasciato intendere: il "successo" della rassegna web sarebbe stato premiato con una compilation. Nessuna però, fra le case discografiche che hanno portato artisti al Festival si è fatta avanti e così se possiamo avere su disco alcuni dei protagonisti di Sanremofestival.59, la categoria web introdotta da Bonolis all'ultimo Sanremo, dobbiamo dire grazie alla piccola Edel. Il cd sarà in vendita da 10 aprile al costo di 10 euro e come [...]

Recently I've been doing a lot of thinking about bands and their logos. My own band is going through the process of trying to create that perfect image. That one symbol that may not even have text in it, but people still know what it represents...a kick ass band. I'll let you know this is a painstaking process, especially in a band with 7 members (7 schizophrenic sets of opinions). So if you don't have a publicist or creative director to do the brunt work, how does an artist/band (or company) go about creating their logo? What [...]

As 21st Century music fans, there are artists we come to follow incessantly and hope with clasped hands that some new output is just around the corner. When's the new record gonna be out? When's the next tour? When's the next blog post? It's all very fleeting and consumeristic at times, but the intoxication of new music from a favorite band is simply too much. Via Deerhunter and Atlas Sound , Bradford Cox has become one of those artists for me. I'm a disciple, and it's only [...]
