Nicolas Jaar is in no way similar to Marmite. The love/hate relationship (that I hope I'm not alone in possessing) with the young NY prodigy is just far too complex. For example, his latest mix for BBC Radio 12s Essential series is what Yogi bear would describe as 'more aurally pleasing and adventurous than your average mix'. After a tad too much mead he'd probably even go so far as to proclaim that it's refreshing to hear such an diverse spectrum of music on primetime Radio 1. Yogi is dead; long live Yogi. That said, the whole [...]
Feels a little ridiculous calling Nicolas Jaar 's The Prism one of our favorite releases of 2012 so far, as the tracks come housed in a tiny, fragile (ours already broke), very cool looking $40 aluminum cube that most people won't be able to hear until Jaar decides to release all of these tracks digitally. A few Prism tracks surfaced over the weekend though - buried deep inside Jaar's perfect Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1 - so I guess it's [...]
Иллюстрация взята из журнала PRISM . Пару лет назад Yoga Records переиздали потерянный в истории семидесятых альбом Ted Lucas , и к сегодняшнему дню он превратился в настоящую классику. Простая мудрость текстов и лаконичные мелодии выручают каждый раз, когда нужно обратиться к чему-то вечному. « It's so easy when you know what you are doing », « It is so nice to get stoned », « It was so sweet, and how did it get so sour? » —сколько можно повторять себе эти строки? К счастью, даже у такого, некогда неизданного [...]

Childish Side Of The Moon
With more and more people kicking against the digital file format and the loss of physicality in music, vinyl sales are on the rise, CDs are still widely bought and even cassettes have a niche in the market. It's not just consumer's seeking out tangible forms of music either, a lot of artists are now lamenting the mp3 and its effect on physical formats. One such artist, Nicolas Jaar , has decided to act on this growing interest by throwing his own suggestion into the ring. Here Jaar and his associates at the [...]
Named the PRISM Remix but actually by the Canadian duo called GRIZZLY . Another bunch of talented Vancouvians' step up to the plate (in true baseball fashion) to smash this re-version from right on out of the ballpark ... Blatant punch lines aside, we have GRIZZLY (aka Prism) extending 'Work Hard, Play Hard' more than what Autoerotique & Ben C have done already. And by giving this a good, clean and hard polish. GRIZZLY makes this electronic & bendy with no dirty spots left over at all. TIËSTO feat. KAY – Work [...]
Just copped one of these , easily the best or worst purchase I'll make today: a self-contained aluminum " prism " of music - " a collection of lost memories " - from Nico Jaar 's own Clown & Sunset label, featuring a few unreleased Jaar tracks (including one with his Darkside collaborator Dave Harrington ). Here's one of the songs from the Prism that you've probably heard, and it happens to be the title track: _________ [...]
En una incesante búsqueda por encontrar formas alternativas de publicar y almacenar su música, Nicolas Jaar reveló una nueva idea: Una caja de música llamada Prism . Esta innovación musical es realizada a través de su propia compañía orientada a la música, llamada Clown & Sunset Aesthetics . Prism es el primer producto lanzado por esta compañía y consta de un concepto muy sencillo, una caja de música que contiene canciones precargadas de Jaar y de algunos de sus colaboradores en CSA . La caja, que funciona como medio [...]

Esce il 27 Marzo con Kanine Records l'album "In Between", LP degli Young Prisms , che cattura gli alti e bassi dell'anno scorso. Tra la crisi e la perdita di una persona amata, si percepiscono un senso di rigetto, solitudine, smarrimento. Sembra comunque che non ci sia solo negatività nella musica di Gio Bettero e Matthew Allen, amici sin dall'infanzia (non a caso il loro primo album si intitolava "Friends for Now"). Solo, non si aspettavano che tutto cambiasse intorno a loro in modo così drammatico. Sempre presente il batterista Jordan Silbert nella formazione della band, questa [...]

The Young Prisms are touring a lot these days. The San Francisco band made a stop at the Jackpot back in April, and it returns to Lawrence tonight (10/13) for a show at the Replay Lounge .… [ Read more ] [ Subscribe to the comments on this story ]
I'll not soon forget my most recent trip to Los Angeles, riding down the 101 in a rental car, windows down blaring Young Prisms most recent full-length . It was almost transcendental. I wasn't sure what these demos would sound like but-holy shit-they are stripped down, angelic versions of the songs I already love. Gnar Tapes is doing everyone a solid and giving this away gratis, but take a moment and order the cassette here if you're into it. The tape label actually puts it best: Not to blow our [...]
Here's a band we don't get to talk about much. It's been five years since Mahogany released the essential Connectivity! and it's been a long wait for yours truly. Mahogany have released two proper albums and a collection of singles and rarities which roughly translates to 50 songs over a period of nearly 15 years. [...]
