If you weren't already tingling at the prospect of Anticon's remastered re-release of D33J's Tide Songs , then this will surely get your toes curling. Jerome "LOL" Potter is back once again to add his wholly organic melancholy to D33J's "Park" and he performs his duties with aplomb, measuring out equal doses of comfortable pop pastiche and forward-thinking melodic structure. I don't think I'll ever get sick of this crews cross-pollinating ways. Stream below and via the above link.
Edinburgh trio Young Fathers will be releasing the follow-up to their Tape One EP earlier this year with the appropriately titled Tape Two via Anticon on June 11th. Their sound is as eclectic as the members that comprise the band who come from Scottish, Liberian, and Nigerian backgrounds respectively. Everything from r&B to African percussion are represented. The first single from the forthcoming release is "I Heard." You can watch the group-directed video below. The clip conveys [...]
We've talked about Serengeti's persona Kenny Dennis before when he released his EP last year. Well, Kenny Dennis, the over-the-top 50 year old beer drinking and brat eating Chicagoan, is back with a full LP. The album features contributions from Odd Nosdam, Jel, and a guest spot from Anders Holm (Workaholics), and comes out on June 25th via Anticon.
Baths has found a comfortable middle-ground between eccentric dream-haze pop and minimalist electronica. The formula, used to obscene precision on the 2010 album Cerulean , is apparent again on the most recent release, "Ironworks." However, Baths, Will Wiesenfeld, uses vocal execution as a higher priority, while still sprawling tapered effects throughout. Check out "Ironworks" below from Baths' upcoming album Obsidian , set for release May 28 via Anticon .
Let us help you catch up on the week in brief. First we are bummed that Foxygen canceled their tour in the name of the band's "creative health", then electro kraut legends Kraftwerk we learned are banned from playing in China for participating in the Tiebetan Freedom Concert from 1998, and Lil Wayne disclosed that his string of seizures were caused by epilepsy and not the sizzurp. But with plenty more to gossip and talk about, jump head first into a selection of some of the week...
Kenny Dennis is the Deacon, the Grimm Teacher, the MC Crusher, the onion eater, the chop connoisseur, the 4:14 mile runner, the cool wind passing you by. He is the weather vane telling you which way the wind blows, the clerk always offering the right directions. There are moments of true comic genius in Serengeti's Kenny alter-ego. The coda when he starts listing directions like the Contra Code at the end of "Directions," is one of those instances where there is no daylight between the character and the corporeal. In interviews, I've asked 'Geti obscure questions about Kenny and without [...]
In his time working under the Serengeti moniker, David Cohn has often written songs as other people, adopting different personae through which he filters his impressively clear and direct storytelling. It seems that he'll be focusing on the Chicagoan Kenny Dennis for now (loves football, is preoccupied with the little things in life, etc.), and after releasing the Kenny Dennis EP last year, he's following that up with an album of the same name, due out via Anticon on June 24th. The first track to be taken from said album is the [...]
Without a doubt, Kenny Dennis is one of my favorite rapper alter egos out there. He's the goofball, all-Chicago-everything alter ego of Serengeti , who typically sticks to more serious subject matter. But as Dennis, he covers it all from his beef with Shaq to talking as much sh*t as humanly possible. At least, he does plenty of the latter on the lead single off the upcoming Kenny Dennis LP. "Directions", like the rest of the album, is produced by Odd Nosdam . You can stream and/or download "Directions" below. Kenny Dennis drops [...]
It’s been three years since Will Wiesenfeld , aka BATHS released his stunning debut album Cerulean to the airwaves and ears of what are now a loyal fan base. Needless to say when rumours of a second effort started floating around panties got seriously twisted. It’s official though, with the announcement of his new LP Obsidian , due to be released May 28th on Anticon. Just to crank the heat even more, ahead of the release the Californian dude has just announced a string of North American tour [...]

The Latest: Baths – Ironworks
On "Ironworks" Will Wiesenfeld, better known by his stage name Baths, mixes piano, strings and fuzzy electronic beats to accompany his gentle falsetto. He sings about "victorian doorways" and "tempestuous foreplay" as ooh's bounce around from left to right and snares explode in the distance. "Ironworks" is Baths' second single from the upcoming Obsidian out May 28.

Dirty Hurt, Young Fathers.
It was only my third gig of 2013, though Young Fathers' rice 'n' pea-powered Shacklewell Arms showing remains one of the finer evenings out of this one thus far. The off-kilt hip hop trio appeared to come of age there and then upon that most oily of stages, and an incontestable highlight came in the surprisingly refined form of a then unknown track as we now know entitled I Heard. You can hear it below, and combining the slow burn balladry en vogue at the moment having been favoured by all and sundry from Tyler, The Creator [...]

Kenny Dennis & Serengeti Give Good Directions
Kenny Dennis is the Deacon, the Grimm Teacher, the MC Crusher, the onion eater, the chop connoisseur, the 4:14 mile runner, the cool wind passing you by. He is the weather vane telling you which way the wind blows, the clerk always offering the right directions. There are moments of true comic genius in Serengeti's Kenny alter-ego. The coda when he starts listing directions like the Contra Code at the end of "Directions," is one of those instances where there is no daylight between the character and the corporeal.
