Who wouldn't want to be on the sun-drenched shores of Ibiza, sipping a crisp Spanish wine next to the crystal blue waters of the Mediterranean Sea? It is from this landscape that Le Quack's "St. Lucia" emerges, a carefree disco house track that twists a sample from Los Angeles dancefloor legends The Whispers' timeless track " And the Beat Goes On ." Free download!
Nights are a pop/rock band at heart but don't hide their shoegaze influences on 'Walkaway', the opener to their new album 'Whisper' - available now .

This LP follows the Ohio four piece's 2010 EP 'A Tangle Of Arms'. Nights - 'Walkaway' [...]

Lawrence's power-pop quartet the Dead Girls released their latest LP, Fade In/Fade Out on Friday, and to celebrate, they played an album release party at the Replay Lounge. The group played the entirety of the new album, top to bottom, and it sounded fucking incredible. As the Dead Girls have gone along, they've gone from being a Cheap Trick-inspired group of guys to really covering the gamut of rock 'n' roll's poppier side. They've always been a bunch to embrace melody, but this new batch of tunes really takes [...]
Nothing quite like a burst of anthemic, whitish Parisian noise to enliven a Monday morning now, is there? Though that said, there's little quite like Black Polygons' Whisper full stop. An involving chord progression swathed in the muffle of dilapidated speakers out on their final few decibels, it's the sound of a crystalline sunrise sullied only by the unshakable black cloud caused by the weekend's filth which invariably invades the brain right around now... Whisper by Black Polygons Black Polygons' Bandcamp . The post On the [...]

Lovestreams - Shock Corridor "When people think of “confessional” or “intimate” music, they often picture a guy fingerpicking an acoustic guitar, but I think sitting and whispering into your computer is even more weirdly intimate, or has the potential to be." I imagine Will Sheff alone in the dark. I imagine him hunched over. I imagine him whispering into a computer microphone, those old ones from the '90s, white and plastic. I imagine that the room is windowless. I imagine him sitting for days, whispering [...]

For the last 20 years, music has primarily entered my lugholes via tinny computers,"i" prefixed devices and a pair of speakers salvaged from a £200 Aiwa midi hi-fi system that was already 10 years old when the Tricky stickers that adorn them were put on. This week Richer Sounds seduced me into a new decent-ish pair of speakers and my god, it's like I grew a new pair of ears! The only trouble is, everything sounds so good, if you put Morris Minor & The Majors "Stutter Rap" on right now, the [...]

Post-disco group The Whispers have always been a favorite in the Disco Filter household, and their upbeat R&B dance music has withstood the test of time. They started in the mid-1960s as a vocal group on the street corners of Watts in South Central Los Angeles, a community whose rich musical history has defied many socioeconomic obstacles . They went on to produce a string of hits you can still hear today on muzak stations in supermarkets and shopping malls, most notably, And [...]

![[on repeat] WHISPERING AND SINGING by Boomgates](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4486589_lg.jpg)
After a couple of 7" releases and a split 7" with Super Wild Horses over the past two years, Australia's Boomgates has released its full-length collection of tunes for their debut LP titled Double Natural on August 31 from Austrialian label Bedroom Suck Records ( buy ). The band is made up of members from Eddy Current Suppression Ring, The Twerps, Dick Diver, and Teen Archer. As you'd expect, the LP is chock-full-o indie goodness with classic mid-tempo to upbeat guitar rock and boy/girl melodies that are super-sweet, but not twee in [...]
