Christa Palazzolo og Sarah Brown fra Boy Fiend , som jeg skrev om for et par uger siden , er også to af medlemmerne i trioen SLEEP ∞ OVER . Som navnet antyder, ynder de at dyrke det drømmende og søvnige udtryk, jeg bare ikke kan få nok af.

Silver Pines - Time Father While poking around looking at label-mates of bands I like I stumbled upon this eery sounding band out of Texas. Silver Pines is apart of Light Lodge and label-mates of Pure Esctasy . I also suggest you five ' Payasito ' a listen; if it means anything I flipped a coin between posting 'Time Father' and 'Payasito' and 'Time Father' happen to win out.

As the track in mind's title would suggest, "Epic Mana" is exactly that. Epic. Chris (of Tan Dollar fame) has just sent over a few tracks this morning right in time for NYE. Maybe a bold statement, but the way this tune gradually builds to crescendo is a perfect way to cap off the year. TD's upcoming release, Your Body as a Temple , is up for digital ( Life's Blood ) and analog ( Mirror Universe ) releases on January 4th. Plus, the release party for this album is, um, epic. So, if you're in Irvine, [...]

In addition to the gorgeous album version, the single also features an "Annacapella" which highlights Panda Bear's soaring vocal contribution (remixes, please), and this sparse, thoroughly hypnotic reverb-drowned version.

Pure Ecstasy are a few guys from Austin making beautiful lo-fi, beach-fuzz music and they definitely live up to their name. "You're In It Now" is one of the most gorgeous songs I've heard all year.

There is nothing like driving across the country. Although it might sound a bit antisocial, I prefer to go it alone. There are no distractions, and nothing to stop you from completely losing yourself in your surroundings. Out of sheer desire (I assure you it is not boredom) you are compelled by unknown forces to try unusual new things and do what you would ordinarily choose not to do. I strayed from the beaten path whenever possible. I was constantly observing, listening to, and recording my constantly changing environment. Upon returning home after a long rip, all [...]
