BEST OF 2011: ALBUMS

BEST OF 2011: ALBUMS If you've been even remotely regular in following this blog, our number one shouldn't come as a surprise - I believe I've already bothered you enough with my love of Gang Gang Dance's latest effort (and GGD in general ). I'll leave the list unnumbered because, except for the first 7-8 entries, the rest come in kind of (but not entirely) particular order. And it's not a strictly albums -of-the-year list, as I've included some mixtapes/remix albums/ compilations. Also, I just realised we haven't covered half of this on the blog… Don't [...]

Silk Flowers, “Brush Fires” (ARP Remix) MP3

We're not super happy that Silk Flowers’ most recent album Days of Arrest was also their very last, but the Roman ruins on the front cover are a reminder that even if they're gone, they ... read more

FutureIsle.+SilkFlow ers+Gookin+EliteGym.

FutureIsle.+SilkFlow ers+Gookin+EliteGym. [RSS Readers: See post to listen to audio] Future Islands musicianship surpasses soo many artists of his genre, his talent oozes out, sadly I haven't seen him live but now its a priority. Since the first time I heard D. Gookin I thought he was from another world but I had some much respect for this live show, its leaps beyond Dan Deacon or Tobacco when it comes to weird energy and psychedelics, I can't wait to see how he does this as a one man show tomorrow night [...]

(Say Goodbye) R.I.P. Silk Flowers

(Say Goodbye) R.I.P. Silk Flowers We're sad to say that Silk Flowers is no longer an active band, and that their last show passed earlier in the summer opening for Ariel Pink. The trio, who made woozy synth ballads fueled by samples and beats and noise abstractions, were a good year or two ahead of the large wave of projects that used similar tools to tell less strange and lovely sonic stories. It's sad to see them go, but they're leaving us with one more four track EP entitled Days of Arrest, of which we're plea...

(Jock Strap) Silk Flowers' Ethan Swan documents NBA tattoos Anyone who is an avid sports fan is a secret math nerd at heart. Every sport is filled with more stats than any human needs to know, often times made up just to fit the criteria at hand (Albert Pujols has the most home runs on the 13th day of any month in MLB history*). Algorithms and pie charts are usually involved, and to this day no human can explain the BCS Bowl system, which needs a computer to calculate the results.

Obscure Sound: Best of April 2011

April was a busy and thoroughly enjoyable month in music. It's easy to point out that big names dominated most of it, some of them even brand names in indie music; Panda Bear, TV on the Radio, and Fleet Foxes are as close as you can get to that. I try to avoid featuring artists [...]

Silk Flowers l’interview

Silk Flowers l’interview Acteurs émergents de la scène de Brooklyn, Silk Flowers exposent une personnalité suffisamment tordue et loufoque dans leur art-pop granuleuse pour qu'on se penche sur eux. Leur premier album, le claustrophobe et naïf Silk Flowers en 2008, sonnait assez lo-fi pour echapper à une catégorisation cold-wave un peu réductrice. Probablement pas insensible au printemps de la chillwave, le groupe a depuis le temps décidé d'élargir sa palette chromatique et d'aérer le mix, tout en adoptant des accents indie-pop qui leurs vont bien, et ce tout en restant assez fidèles à [...]

Silk Flowers

The subdued form of electronic-pop that NYC-based Silk Flowers pursue is a glittery cross between industrial ambience and chillwave. Behind their simplistic leads of bass-synth and keyboards, the trio presents interesting pieces of percussive-laden samples that range in feel from chaos to Shangri-la. More often than not, the song’s backgrounds mimic the sounds of a [...]

RECAP OF SILK FLOWERS @ THE ECHO 03.16.11

RECAP OF SILK FLOWERS @ THE ECHO 03.16.11 Silk Flowers @ The Echo Silk Flowers At the Echo (Part Time Punks) Getting to The Echo a bit late I had missed the opening band (Frank Alpine), but hearing from a few friends that were there it sounds like I missed a set of vampires and performance art. Crazy.  Dark wave favorites, SILK FLOWERS ’ set started around 12:15 am, but with the time change it didn’t feel that late at all, and it was fitting for the witching hour. I didn’t know [...]

Grouper Remixes Silk Flowers

Silk Flowers - This Air (Grouper Remix) While in anticipation of her new double album, the ambient goddess Grouper has surfaced with a bit of remixing.  The rather still life Silk Flowers called in the gloomy prowess to remix their new "Thin Air" single into a drone fest of hollowed winds through Jack The Ripper back [...]

Silk Flowers Go On Tour, Have Grouper Make Their Music Sound Like The Winds Of Death

If you're familiar with Silk Flowers then you know they can get kinda baroque, which is cool because moping and dancing don't necessarily have to be mutually exclusive. Their track "Thin Air," however, is not as heavy as we'd normally expect from them. In fact, it's pretty upbeat. Maybe that's why they enlisted Grouper to [...]

CutCopy+Siriusmo+Sil kFlowers+Breitbarth

CutCopy+Siriusmo+Sil kFlowers+Breitbarth [RSS Readers: See post to listen to audio] The summer jams hit us early this year, not my top choice yet I can't deny the pop hooks and a history of loving a handful of their songs. Some tracks might ride the line of too familiar on the melody or sound choice end which scares me a bit. I have a feeling Cut Copy will be all over every festival DJs turntables or iPads or how ever they'll get music to us this summer. Take Ed Banger Records and make them go pick [...]

Riminiscences

Riminiscences The 20jazzfunkgreats Intelligence Unit has been parsing some historical trends in the accumulation of inhuman capital in the American population between 1950 and 2010 using US Census data. We witness peaks in the number of enrolments in witchcraft colleges during the 1970s, probably associated to the high levels of experimentation with psychedelic drugs, the embrace of paganism amongst younger demographics, and the renaissance of American horror cinema. The net numbers aren’t so striking due to the high suicide rates amongst the cohort enrolling in dark arts courses. Although the sad fate of many a sorcery apprentice may explain [...]
