"Island of Broken Glass" is from Dragon Turtle 's new album, Almanac - a convergence of the formerly tranquil twisted and interrupted by cosmic schism drawn from acoustic and electric guitar, occasional keys, dreamy & noisy soundscapes , and submerged vocals. This album may be best served on a slow to acclimate Sunday morning when you've awoken discombobulated from the night before. The [...]
by marissa bea Another nifty collection of More Music , where we highlight some newly released material plus a few other songs that we may have bypassed upon first listen. We've got a wide array today bouncing from Beastie Boys mash ups to some stellar female vocalists, but let's kick it off with the song of the week. Bella Union shared the first single off the upcoming Beach House album titled Teen Dream . The track is titled "Norway" and serves as an eerie [...]

The Fiery Furnaces have a new album called Take Me Round Again that was released digitally only on November 5th. In theory, Take Me Round Again is a collection of cover, but it is also a collection of alternate takes of previously released songs. In other words, it features the members of the Fiery Furnaces re-writing each other's work. As Eleanor (who accounts for 1/2 of the Fiery Furnaces) put it: "I've gotten into the habit of rewriting songs Matt has written, just as a way of practicing and singing at home. Originally, I had [...]

This edition of the Graboid is all about the unknown, as I wouldn't be surprised if you haven't heard about many of these releases (I haven't, at least). Though, there are a few notable names scattered throughout including MF Doom and Ola Podrida . There is one album that I highly recommend checking out, which is Received Pronunciation , the fourth release from Pants Yell! which also marks their debut with Slumberland Records. As always, feel free to recommend anything I may have left off! [...]
Dragon Turtle is a musical collaboration of Brian Lightbody and Tom Asselin. They refer to the music they create as "Ambient-Winter-Calypso-Space- Folk," and I'd say that's a pretty apt description. The duo have a new album entitled Almanac , and it's about as weird and wonderful as a folk album can get. This here is my favorite track from the album. Listen...

I feel like I'm running a day behind with these blog posts. Oh, wait - I am. Well, let's make a quick mix tape and be done with this so I can focus on the real Monday blog update!

RULES for uninitiated noobs : With roughly 100MB of webspace, I give birth to a [...]

Hello Slowcousticals, I bring you a weekend playlist because I don't have a feature post (let's just be honest here). There isn't even a compromise though because there is some really great music included. If you are a regular reader or are a member of the Last.fm group, you know I am a bit of a playlist fiend. So enough with the blather and let's get to your weekend soundtrack! Slowcoustic Saturday Playlist (November Edition) ~ Wonder Stranger [...]

Dragon Turtle , the duo of Brian Lightbody and Tom Asselin (of Lewis & Clarke), is the newest project to arise from the enigmatic La Société Expéditionnaire. Their debut full-length Almanac , is an expansive 45-minute trek that explores an alternating fear and awe of the natural world, and everything in between. They didn't pack lightly either, hoarding a curious mix of folk, kraut rock, post rock, and small touches of world music. The maiden voyage of "Causality" pushes off with warm cider acoustic picking, muffled distant bongos and various textural percussion. Mountain-enveloping [...]
We've had 3 great new Listen@MBV streaming albums in as many weeks- and the combo player above collects them for easy listening (though not "easy listening"), so enjoy. Brilliant Colors ' classic C86-y punky pop will keep you bouncing, Jookabox 's Dead Zone Boys is the best psychedelic musical love story you'll hear all year, and Dragon Turtle 's dark & lovely Almanac will give you some warm flames to ease that chill outside. AND, we've still got a copy of Dragon Turtle limited-edition swirled vinyl to [...]
Dragon Turtle are Brian Lightbody and Tom Asselin, two musical souls split between Brooklyn and rural Northeastern PA. While Lightbody lives in the city as the band's creative director and musician, Asselin works on a tree farm and operates the band's One Forest studio. Their conflicting environments are reflected in their music as ambient folk meets dark refracted noise, aimed at contemplating natural dualities within the universe. Their debut album 'Almanac' is out now. Download 'Island Of Broken Glass' . Buy at La Société Expéditionnaire .
Brian Lightbody and Tom Asselin make up the duo Dragon Turtle, a group that I know far too little about. The boys from Brooklyn make a kind of music not easily describable, but floating somewhere within the realms of folk and psychedelia. Their debut record, Almanac, hits stores today, which you can pick up here. [...]
