Out of the many artists that produce light airy and often ethereal music (see Grouper, Juliana Barwick, Laurel Halo) - Julia Holter easily holds her own - especially on the back of her lovely 2012 record Ekstasis . Today, we hear the new track "World" from her forthcoming album Loud City Song - due August 20th. Also upcoming (according to iTunes pre-order) is an album titled Maria featuring some new tracks, as well as her more popular tracks from Ekstasis - expected May [...]

Después de re-lanzar su exquisito Ekstasis con Domino Records, Julia Holter nos presenta el video "Finale" el track con el que cierra el disco. Enjoy.

For a few years now, LA-based duo Michael David and Tyler Blake – Classixx to you and me – have been remixing. Phoenix , The Gossip , Active Child and The Ting Tings are among the outfits to have had songs treated to the pair’s summer-softened, bliss-exhaling interpretations and it’s been clear from these that David and Blake are two producers pleasantly in thrall to the atmospheric loveliness of their home state, and the musical possibilities it suggests. This summer, [...]

It's been more than four years since Scottish indie-rock band Franz Ferdinand released their last album Tonight: Franz Ferdinand , and after months of touring and playing new tracks on the road they've announced its follow-up. Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action will be released on August 27th via Domino (and a day earlier in the U.K.), and will come on CD, vinyl, double CD, double vinyl, and a limited-to-500 "Passport Edition" .

Such is the ludicrously concerted throwback aesthetic to overpower every last She & Him album that it seems disorienting to talk of pressing play, as opposed to allowing for the dust-enshrouded needle to wheedle its stilted way toward black wax but I'm pressing play. And, shameful though it may be to say so, I'm thoroughly enjoying what I'm hearing. For She & Him are something of a guilty pleasure. They perhaps shouldn't be, such are their indie credentials, but that's exactly what they are. There's no two ways about it; no cause for discussion: [...]
No, no es un salto en la reproducción de la canción: Connor O'Brien deja que su voz trastabille al recitar " Was beginning to d-d-dig in and then (then) his back began (began) to crack ", produciendo un extraño efecto justo en el comienzo de la canción, e introduciendo al oyente de paso en un escenario muy distinto al que los devotos de " Becoming A Jackal " estábamos esperando: los Villagers de 2013 vienen con algunos cambios. El segundo disco de Connor O'Brien no es sólo es el segundo que firma como Villagers, sino que también es [...]

Primarily known for his frequent collaborations with everyone from Brian Eno to Coldplay, Jon Hopkins ' solo work has tragically been overshadowed somewhat by these partnerships. Well, if this Nosaj Thing remix is anything to go by then that should all be about to change. His new album, 'Immunity', promises a lot: ambitious, introspective techno balanced with hugely danceable numbers and lots of "headphone moments" as they say on 6music. If you liked his remixes for David Lynch, Four Tet, Wild Beasts, Nosaj Thing, or Purity Ring, then this new album [...]
Truth be known, I know only a reprehensibly negligible amount about The Child of Lov , aka NL eccentric Cole Williams, other than he's a predilection for pineapple and ran with the whole anonymity thing for a while back there. Though out from the shadows and into the fray, he this week released his eponymous début full-length on Domino imprint Double Six – a record we neglected to review purely due to the above reasoning that we didn't really know enough of him to come out with anything cogent. Though no matter, for what must surely be an album standout [...]

[Nosaj Thing a.k.a. Jason Chung] We have reverently lent our ears to almost every track bearing this young LA-based producer's moniker since he debuted his notorious classic Drift LP via Alpha Pup in 2009. Following up his recent Home LP release via Innovative Leisure , Chung has put together this remix of Jon Hopkin's ambient opus– "Open Eye Signal" . The Open Eye Signal (Remixes) EP is out now via Domino with Nosaj Thing's rework [...]

Out of my body, out of my mind- Later this month, Domino is set to release Animal Collective ’s Monkey Been to Burn Town remix EP. The four-track album will feature sonic interpretations from Gang Gang Dance , Traxman , Teengirl Fantasy and this take on "New Town Burnout," a hypnotic, unsettling slow-burner courtesy of Seattle-based collective Shabazz Palaces . Listen below and if you’re compelled, preorder the limited 12” here and get an instant grat MP3 of the Gang Gang Dance [...]

Monkey Been to Burn Town è il nuovo EP di remix degli Animal Collective in uscita a fine mese su Domino - sentite come suonano due brani del loro ultimo album Centipede Hz, dopo esser passati per le mani di Brian DeGraw dei Gang Gang Dance e di Shabazz Palaces:

Animal Collective 's new Monkey Been to Burn Town remix EP is out later this month on Domino , featuring new re-imaginations from Gang Gang Dance, Teengirl Fantasy, Traxman , and most importantly, as far as we're concerned, this towering, dystopian monolith of a remix by the great Shabazz Palaces , who deconstruct Centipede Hz standout " New Town Burnout " and send its remnants hurtling into space. There's also a brilliant encrypted verse from the Palaceer, [...]

After producing albums for Brian Eno, Coldplay and David Holmes, collaborating with King Creosote and composing the soundtrack for the 2010 film Monsters, london-based electronic music producer Jon Hopkins is finally releasing his new album 'Immunity' beginning of June 2013... READ MORE
To even to so much as suggest Animal Collective's Centipede Hz LP of yesteryear was patchy would be at best a rich compliment, for truth be known it was by and large rather more miss than hit . We suggested then that it was one which needed more time to develop and grow on you tumorously, for it initially seemed ridden with larval earworms (earcentipedes, perhaps) in need of further fertilisation. Though as Brian DeGraw of albeit all too modest Gang Gang Dance fame tonks in with a viciously compelling [...]

Something tells me The Pavilion's Aisling O'Riordan and Jack Collins may be tempted to pop into Plugd Records this Saturday... They say if you stand still in New York for a short space of time the entire population will pass you by. Stand still in Cork music venue The Pavilion for just ten minutes and stage production manager Aisling O'Riordan will have probably passed you by at least a hundred times, greeted everyone in attendance, put out a dozen fires and still be available [...]
