New Music Releases for Tuesday 7/17/2012

New Music Releases for Tuesday 7/17/2012 This week is one of exploration for us.  We recognize groups such as Citizen Cope and Boys Like Girls, but the true heart of this week's releases falls in the cracks on the Top 40.  If you want the best this week, check into Honest Engines and William Becket. Since 20092s EP Captain's Log , the guys from Honest Engines have built a solid foundation for fans of their lo-fi rock that entwines keyboards with some interspersed electric guitars and bass riffs.  The show-friendly group presents each song with a story behind it, much like [...]

Album Review: The Very Best – MTMTMK

Back in 2009, the production duo Radioclit and Malawi-born singer Esau Mwamwaya released the insanely upbeat debut album  Warm Heart of Africa under the moniker The Very Best . The British producers and the African vocalist came together in a way that sounded seamless, each half contributing equal and powerful elements to the album. Now down to Mwamwaya and Johan Hugo, the gleefully collaborative experience continues to fulfill that original vision. MTMTMK , the third proper album from the duo, ushers in the biggest change in the equation: Whereas Warm Heart of Africa [...]

song obsession friday!

Song obsessions are those songs that get stuck in your head. This series of posts isn't about what I or the other panel members think is best, but what our brain latches onto, those ear worms that loop around and around in your head. - Adrian ( me ): The Very Best - We Okay (ft. K'Naan) (mp3) ( pre-order ) Neil Halstead - Full Moon Rising (mp3) ( pre-order ) [...]

The Very Best - Kondaine (Unicorn Kid's Space Drift mix)

The Very Best - Kondaine (Unicorn Kid's Space Drift mix) Whilst we’re standing here with arms folded, looking anxiously down at our watch and asking ‘when exactly is that Unicorn Kid (pictured) album going to arrive,’ (answer – October possibly) we’ll make do with this. Make do makes it sound like second best, but really this isn’t. This remix of The Very Best’s Kondaine is all rave-space synths and uplifting steel drum sounds that make the song sound like the lost track from the soundtrack to Danny Boyle’s film The Beach . This is parallel universe music and it’s a good place to [...]

The Very Best: "MTMTMK" (album review)

What do you get when you team a Swedish producer with a Malawi singer?  You get The Very Best .  The project from Johan Hugo and Esau Mwamwaya release their second album, MTMTMK , on July 17th. The combination of electronic sounds and traditional organic African music can be a powerful one.  Beefy beats help emphasize the rhythms of "Adani".  On "Yoshua Alikuti" the beats help build the song to its explosive climax. Sometimes though, the odd couple partnership simply does not work.  On those occasions we get the ill-advised dance-slanted [...]
