RYAT will release her new album, Totem , on June 4 via her new label home of Brainfeeder. Yeah, that's right, the strongest label in the music world just keeps getting stronger. And from the sound of Totem lead single "Howl", the label's output will remain just as consistent as ever. The track indeed features some howling, though it's done in the most beautiful way possible amid rapid pace-changing drums and heavenly synth textures. If you like your music lush and a lil' out there, you're going to love RYAT. Stream the track below and [...]

El-P vuelve con Cancer for cure vía Fat Possum James Meline aka El-P regresa a lo grande esta vez en Fat Possum, tras el lamentable receso de Definitive Jux, su casa discográfica que por años albergó a lo mejor del indie rap.

Más abajo "Tougher colder killer", junto a Killer Mike y "The full retard", primeros adelantos del [...]
When Brainfeeder signs an artist it's always interesting to find out what brand of weird they're bringing to the label. In the case of Ryat, it's singing, which is weird enough for a roster comprised mostly of beat-nerds. This mix made to promote the upcoming Mono/Poly and Ryat West Coast tour is full of what you might expect: beats full of bleeps, blips, and other strange sounds and samples, but despite being expected, it's not predictable. And it's enough to make you look forward to hearing what's on Ryat's debut, Totem , due out in June.

Originally hailing from Philly although now shacked up in L.A., RYAT is the unpronounceable moniker of Christina McGeehan and Howl is lifted from her forthcoming 'spirit animal'-inspired LP Totem (expected June 4th on Brainfeeder ). Like Olivia Merilahti vocally imitating idol Björk over an expansive array of glitches and dislocated twinkles of harps that sound as though drafted in from some distant fragment of history, it prowls like ominous portent as McGeehan howls lovably, palpably embodying lupine aesthetic as intended.

RYAT : Howl - MP3 Signée chez Brainfeeder (le label de Flying Lotus ), Christina McGeehan alias RYAT sortira son nouvel album TOTEM le 5 juin prochain. Un LP dont chacune des tracks représentera "l'esprit d'un animal". Un concept qui en dit long sur le monde enchanté et dark de l'américaine. Howl en est un excellent avant-goût. Et si vous voulez l'aider à [...]

If you're a fan of the good vibrations of Bobby Mcferrin (most famous for his 1988 hit "Don't Worry, Be Happy" ), then I have no clue if you'll like his son Taylor's music, as they sound absolutely nothing alike. This stellar track from his recent Early Riser EP is kind've everything you'd want in a summertime chiller. Its production is restrained the whole time, allowing the various elements of the song to whisper their way to the front and sulk to the back, creating a proper feeling of tension that precedes an emotional buildup that doesn't [...]
Welcome to another edition of Hypem Hunting, where we utilize The Hype Machine to find a bunch of songs we've never heard, based upon searching for a random word. This week, we'll be exploring the theme of "time". Why, you ask? First off, because time is fleeting. Second, because I haven't really had any of it free the past couple of weeks. And third, because it is a word that produces many results when searching for it on The Hype Machine. So here are this week's finds. When I saw the [...]

:dailchill: Today's delivery is brought to you by Taylor McFerrin . I'm a big supporter of having sex everyday but especially on the weekend. And, Saturday is here and there's no better day to do the deed and luckily Taylor's track is here to help facilitate it. The track I'm bringing to you today is called "Place In My Heart" which features the vocals from RyAT. Taylor's production is amazing but RyAT really brings the sexiness of this track to fruition. And just to give you a little background; Taylor McFerrin is one the artists signed to [...]

Philadelphia's RYAT concoct an outing of jumbled beat and implied frenzy on "Superficial Friction" from their album, Avant Gold . http://www.ryat.info/ http://twitter.com/#!/RYAT RYAT facebook

Place in My Heart – первый сингл с альбома Тейлора МакФеррина «Early Rider», который выйдет в этом году на Brainfeeder. Вещей в таком стиле, да ещё и такого уровня, от музыканта не ожидали – многослойные гитарные партии, тёмная музыка, сыгранная в состоянии, граничащим между красотой и болью. К этой истории прилагается не менее эмоциональный видеоряд, рассказывающий страшную историю отдельно взятой пары.
To celebrate today's crop of releases, here are new mp3s from Richard Ashcroft, Brooklyn Rundfunk Orkestrata, Buffalo Tom, Carol Bui, Dam Mantle, Dinosaur Bones, Grails, Memphis, Alexi Murdoch, Parts & Labor, R.E.M., RYAT, Shotgun Jimmie, the Sound Of Growing Up, Starfucker, Tiger Bones, Kurt Vile, Alex Winston, Wolf People and Wye Oak. Also, vote for your favorite [...]

This is the kind of leftfield pop that we can get with. Glitches and electronic hiccups wrapped around vocals and melody, while synth and drums provide the bottom line. That's what we're getting from this Ryat track, 'Superficial Friction', which is taken from the band's forthcoming album 'Avant Gold' (out on March 8). Listen to the track here: 'Superficial Friction'

Philadelphia electronic duo Ryat are gonna be in town next Wednesday, March the 9th for a Live WMC Performance at our weekly party at Purdy (786) .

[There is a video that cannot be displayed in this feed. Visit the blog entry to see the video.] Taylor McFerrin is incredibly talented. Glad to know Brainfeeder scooped him up. While this song and video are depressing they're both beautifully done.

The other day I stumbled across this pretty wicked track from Brainfeeder artist Taylor McFerrin. Ryat's vocals are reminiscent of Bjork, and definitely add a certain edge to this haunting song and video. "Place In My Heart" is taken from the forthcoming full length release Early Riser .

Taylor McFerrin has released a video for his track "A Place in My Heart" which is from his latest album entitled Early Riser. Taylor is one the artists signed to the newer label, Brainfeeder , started by Flying Lotus . The track is a groovy electronica mix that features RYAT on vocals. And, the video is beautifully shot and directed but may tug at the heartstrings. Check out the video and track below. Click here to view the embedded video.

Philadelphia's RYAT is the force of both Christina Ryat and Tim Conley which together defy musical gravity. They're onliest, in-your-face and bass heavy just the way we like our talent. I mean, if you have something to say - fucking say it. Their track Superficial Fiction does. And I'm confident we'll hear more March 8th, when their album Avant Gold sees daylight via Obvious Bandits . Spring tour also in the works. More info here . [...]
We may as well rename this damn site brainfeederbumsesh.com or something because once again the track featured here is to be released on Flying Lotus' Brainfeeder label . Although, in honest reflection David aka Jheri Kurl aka White Men Can't Run aka The O.G.G. doesn't amble about with the same musical blinkers strapped to his tiny head that I do. Like a tired old pit pony, I just want to lie down! Taylor McFerrin is Bobby McFerrin's son so if 'Don't Worry, Be Happy' is most certainly your bag then great because this is completely different. Blissed-out [...]
