![[Introducing] – Granit](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4054137_lg.jpg)
Tweet It's been over two years since Beach House graced us with a new record. And while some simply wait anxiously for the successor to "Teen Dream" , I've found myself fully immersed in an EP over the past few weeks that's helping me through. The EP in question is a self-titled debut work by Granit , a female duo from my dad's native Barcelona. Cristina Checa and [...]

Tweet January has come and gone. In some parts of the world Lana Del Rey 's "Born To Die" has already been released to mixed reviews, nowhere near making as big a splash as was anticipated by some. I've given it a listen, it's fine, but, as I expected, nothing remarkable. In not-LDR-related news, there have been plenty of good releases so far in this past month, with Cloud Nothings [...]
When making an album, recording live is the musical equivalent of doing your crossword puzzle in pen. It's risky. If one member of the band falters or delivers a performance that's less than stellar- it shows through in the playback and you pretty much have to record the whole song over. There are very few opportunities to "punch in" where you left off in this kind of recording environment. Because of that, engineers often steer bands away from live recording. When it's done right, though, it's gold. The Album becomes a testament to a moment, an honest feel for the bands [...]

According to this , yes. UPDATE : Sub Pop says that Electric Lady Studios' post - which has since been removed - was inaccurate.

Rock n' roll has lived an eventful life thus far. In the early years it was an adolescent, playing by the rules and mimicking blues and swing music. By the mid to late 1950s, though, it hit a rebellious stage and hardly looked back. It seems that every era of rock since has offered something musically and culturally defiant that has made parents cringe and kids go crazy. But times have changed. Rock has, for better or worse, reached middle age, and it's no longer interested exclusively in shock and awe. [...]

I heard this song in a very peculiar Miranda July film of 2011, The Future. It's eery but lovely. Baltimore pop duo, Beach House, did good with this track (and a handful of others). Free download here: Master of None - Beach House
With a creaky yet tranquil voice that sounds like it should belong to a 43-year-old, British music moguls are expecting big things from 23-year-old Al Spx. Hailing from Canada, the home of many other strong acoustic talents, Spx describes her sound as "doom soul". She currently resides in London and calls her project Cold Specks,

As the end of the year approaches, it's time for us to look back at the past twelve months and decide what have been our favourite albums of the year. This time it hasn't been an easy task because let's face it, 2011 has definitely not been a great year for music, and personally, I [...]
