A hazy, unfocused, occasionally diverting collection of tracks from Mac DeMarco's former collaborator. Alex Calder, formerly drummer in oddball Vancouver duo Makeout Videotape, has more in common musically with his former collaborator Mac DeMarco than an entry on his musical CV. The two might have quit work working together back in 2011, but on the evidence of their two recently released recordings, they retain a distinctly shared vision. Both have a penchant for making warped, woozy 70s-style pop music, in the vein of Ariel Pink: sunny yet water-damaged...

Vous l'aviez peut-être manqué, c'est l'occasion de se rattraper. Jack Tatum alias Wild Nothing a sorti il y a quelques jours son nouvel EP, Empty Estate . Introduit par l'excellent titre A Dancing Shell , ce single regroupe pas moins de sept nouveaux morceaux qui auraient pu concourir au post de mini-album. Une douce ballade intemporelle dans un univers pop délicat et fantaisiste avec toujours cette fraicheur et ce grain de folie qui font le succès de l'artiste. Tracklist: 1. The Body In Rainfall [...]

It's been over two years, but New York's MINKS are finally back with plans of a new album, Tides End. "Everything's Fine" is a brand new song from it (and an mpfree no less), and there is also a rework of early 2012 demo "Painted Indian" . continue reading >>

Daily life is full of signs and reminders to us of how much we are all influenced by the ways of the world and nature and how all these factors combine to make us both vulnerable and changeable. There is also music that calls to mind that very feeling and that is what this week’s playlist is dedicated to. Listen on and if you enjoy what you hear, seek out these bands further and support them in their pleasure-giving… The Joy [...]
Shortly after the release of Nocturne, Wild Nothing is back with his Empty Estates EP, and it could just be his most captivating work to date.

The growing catalog of Captured Tracks has several bands that wear the flag for everyone, but there are some forgotten gems that I don't think people really give enough attention to, such as Minks . The last effort from the project, By the Hedge , was a special listen, though I don't recall too many people taking notice. With the upcoming effort, Tides End , I'm hoping that things are about to change. It's the purest form of bedroom [...]

Wistful off satisfaction, Sonny Kilfoyle has a new single under his MINKS moniker that can be your summer mantra for relaxation. On "Everything's Fine" he oscillates between cool and fine, synonmous yes, but doubling up on the reassurance is a way for a babe to the escapist life to put conviction in his pysche. The story behind Kilfoyle's new MINKS record, Tide's End, involves the claustrophobic deluge of New York City driving a songwriter into a mental jam up. He sought t...

Parecíera que ha pasado una eternidad desde que apareció " By The Edge ", pero en realidad solo han sido dos años los que han transcurrido desde que Minks publicó ese excelente álbum a través de Captured Tracks , así que ya era hora de que este proyecto volviera a hacer de las suyas, y que mejor manera para concluir esta semana que con dos extractos pertenecientes a lo que será su nuevo álbum, "Tides End". Bueno, la realidad es que una de estas canciones no es taaan nueva, ya que en algún a inicios del año [...]

Boston-based Captured Tracks outfit MINKS are set to follow-up 20112s By The Hedge with Tides End , so named after an estate the band encountered on the East End of Long Island - where the band decamped to combat a case of writers' block - inhabited by eccentric, isolated residents in a state of financial decline. (This according to their album autiobio .) So basically, MINKS lived their own version of the Maysles' classic film Grey Gardens , and now have an album to show for it. Great art has been born from less! The [...]

un nuovo album dei Medicine (formazione che nei primi anni ‘90 pubblicò almeno un paio di titoli da discografia shoegaze fondamentale, come Shot Forth Self Living e The Buried Life ), riuniti in formazione originale a diciotto anni dal loro scioglimento, uscirà per Captured Tracks il prossimo 6 Agosto:

On trouvait ce mois de mai un peu triste, quatre à cinq concerts par jour c'était "petit joueur" alors on a décidé d'organiser une petite Soirée de Poche histoire de corser un peu l'affaire. On serait vous, cela dit, on hésiterait pas trop. On a tellement aimé ses disques et ses précédents concerts qu'on ne pouvait pas faire autrement : pour cette 34ème soirée on vous offre le Canada sur un plateau avec Mac DeMarco. Ça sera au nord de Paris dans un très bel endroit, Mac et son groupe feront surement des blagues [...]

Wild Nothing is releasing his new EP, Empty Estate , on May 14th via Captured Tracks . It was recorded this past January in New York with the help of Al Carlson. We already got the video for one of our favorite songs this year "A Dancing Shell," now listen to all seven songs that makeup the EP in full. Dare we say, this might be Tatum's best collection of songs to date. Find the stream below.

On "Tell Me,' it's still a cold, cold world for Soft Metals as cloudy vocals drift over an analog house beat and metallic, eternally-delayed synthesizer swirls. The Los Angeles duo does what they do well – intergalactic crime driving music for both past and future. Hear more when their new one, Lenses , drops on Captured Tracks July 16.
