Excellent Uncut Cover Disk

Excellent Uncut Cover Disk Hot on the heels of the superb George Harrison cover disk from Mojo magazine comes Uncut magazine's Brian Wilson tribute. Rather than cover versions, it has collected together a group of tracks from bands that can all tip their hat to the influence of Mr Wilson. Artists include Panda Bear, Sufjan Stevens, Gruff Rhys, Volcano Choir, Girls and Caribou among others, and here are two of our own favourites from the disk from  Ganglians and Grizzly Bear . Like Mojo, Uncut is available from [...]

Active Child – Playing House (Ft. How To Dress Well) [Music Video + Mp3]

Active Child – Playing House (Ft. How To Dress Well) [Music Video + Mp3] Off of his debut full-length CD, You Are All I See , "Playing House" by Los Angeles based musician Pat Grossi (aka Active Child ) represents a much-needed R&B revival in independent music. The How To Dress Well assisted track is a glimmer of hope in an indie music scene overwhelmingly dominated by an exceeding number of Grizzly Bear and Animal Collective copycats. We want that TLC and Ginuwine swagger back. Though this ain't Jodeci or Keith Sweat, this is a step in the right direction for the cats out there that were not fortunate enough [...]

[Listen] – CANT – “Answer”

[Listen] – CANT – “Answer” Tweet Chris Taylor, best known as producer and vocalist of acclaimed band Grizzly Bear , has brought to light his own solo project under the name CANT. This breathy, multi-instrumental layer cake of a track is a sample of what his upcoming album, "Dreams Come True". Another major point in excitement: Twin Shadow 's George Lewis Jr. , has collaborated with Taylor on this debut album, scheduled to be release on 9/13 through Taylor's own Terrible Records (Outside the [...]

Peanut Butter & Swelly // Chiddy Bang

Peanut Butter & Swelly // Chiddy Bang Over the glorious Memorial Day weekend Chiddy Bang dropped their new mixtape: Peanut Butter and Swelly . May 27th to be exact. The mixtape is exactly what you would probably be expecting from Xaphoon and Chiddy filled with ever-flowing rhymes and alternative samples behind em. Some of the artists sampled this time around include: Grizzly Bear , Matt & Kim , Flux Pavilion , The Knocks , and even The Supremes voice an appearance. As usual, the mixtape is [...]

[Listen/Download] – New EP By We Are Trees – “Girlfriend”

[Listen/Download] – New EP By We Are Trees – “Girlfriend” After impressing pretty much everyone with his debut EP "Boyfriend", James Nee is back with his trees for the followup, "Girlfriend". This afternoon the dudes over at Turntable Kitchen premiered "I Don't Believe In Love", one of the new cuts from the EP, but now you can hear the whole thing from his Bandcamp page.  The aforementioned song is a little bit of a change of pace for the guys; songs on "Boyfriend" and some of the demos I've posted in the last 9 months or so since have a far more [...]

[Listen/Download] – Robin Pecknold & Ed Droste – “I’m Losing Myself”

Fleet Foxes singer Robin pecknold is obviously not content with getting their second album finished up and practicing that he had to go and record some new shit with some buddies, just for the hell of it. As he said on their Facebook page he "recorded three songs in LA a couple weeks ago with my friend Noah. One is a new song that's a duet with my buddy Ed Droste from the amazing band Grizzly Bear , one is a solo new song, and one is a cover. Hope you enjoy!" [...]

[Listen] – New Song By We Are Trees – “Colorado”

[Listen] – New Song By We Are Trees – “Colorado” When James (the head-honcho) from We Are Trees sent me the demo for "Afraid Of Love" at the start of February, I was under the impression that it'd be on his upcoming EP "Girlfriend", but not so! He just sent over the first single from that EP and on his Bandcamp page the tracklist for the EP shows five new jams, and you can probably expect each one to have that ethereal and laid back melodic sound that we heard on his debut EP "Boyfriend" .  So far the new songs are quickly [...]

[Listen] – New Song By We Are Trees – “Afraid Of Love”

That's We Are Trees up there, at age nine, on the right. Sippin' on a 40, tokin' on a doobie.  That's just how Asian kids roll in Virginia.  Hardcore, all the way across the sky. He's been working on the follow-up to last summer's stunning "Boyfriend" EP, tentatively titled "Girlfriend" and last week sent me over a demo of one of the songs he's thinking of putting on the final version, but to me it sounds fine as it is (choo think?).  There's a chance he'll release both a new EP and an album this year [...]

[Watch] – We Are Trees Perform “Sunrise Sunset” On New York Rooftop

[Watch] – We Are Trees Perform “Sunrise Sunset” On New York Rooftop This seems to happen, and has happened, with a lot of other music sites and blogs, whereby they post about a new artist who's trying to get some coverage of their music and over the course of a year or so they watch that artist blossom and grow and get the kind of acclaim and recognition they deserve. My first of this kind is We Are Trees , the brainchild of James Nee out of his bedroom in Virgina Beach in Virginia Land.   Since I first posted about him I've listened to his beautifully-crafted EP [...]

[Listen/Download] – Two New Demos And A Cover Of Best Coast’s “When I’m With You” By We Are Trees

I like to keep in touch with artists who reach out to me or that I contact about featuring them on the site. When James Nee, the mastermind behind We Are Trees , first got in touch with me back in July we got to email-chatting and have kept in touch since, and the dude's one of the nicest guys around.  Actually, scratch that, I don't think describing someone as "nice" is fair.  Let's say he's the coolest motherfucker on the block, that sounds better. As I perused Rollo & Grady last week [...]

[Introducing] – We Are Trees

If Ed Droste was dead, We Are Trees would be his spirit, his living embodiment. That's not to say that We Are Trees is just a Grizzly bear rip-off, far from it.  James Nee, the guy behind We Are Trees, may sound like "The Droste" but it's not just his voice that encompasses We Are Trees, there's the impressive musicianship, his intricate guitar playing, the beautiful lyrics, the production (the engineering on the EP was done by Mark Padgett, the bassist with Mae), all of which come together so well that pretty much within the the first minute of the first [...]

[Listen/Download] – New Song By The Shimmies – “And The Radio Played On”

That song title might sound familiar to you and if you've been reading this site for the last couple of months or so then you've probably even seen it on here. That's because it's a cover of the always excellent L.A. band The Delta Mirror. I posted about The Shimmies back at the start of July and mentioned back then that they have a pretty good relationship with The Delta Mirror, two of the guys from the band guest-vocalarisering on The Delta Mirror's "He Was Worse Than The Needle He Gave You", and now they're covering [...]

[Listen/Download] – The Shimmies – [Home-School Rock/Alternative]

It's pretty sweet when a band you really like starts recommending new music to you.  That's what Craig from The Delta Mirror did with The Shimmies. Not only did he recommend them but he even sent me a couple of their songs too.  The four-piece are from a land far far away in Dagobah System, California, their sound reminiscent of Grizzly Bear meets Conor Oberst meets a Jeff Buckley-fronted Band Of Horses.  High-arching guitar build-ups, resonating vocals and drum skins hit like they're going out of fashion make their upcoming album "To All Beloved Enemies" sound like a [...]

Best Mash-Ups, Covers, and Remixes of Semi-Lately

Best Mash-Ups, Covers, and Remixes of Semi-Lately Mash-Ups, Covers, and Remixes often seem to rub people the wrong way. I like to think of them more as interpretations. Just take them for what they are. No one is going to make a Bob Marley song as well as Bob, but you can interpret it in a new way. So here are some covers and mash-ups that I have been into semi-lately. DOWNLOAD all the songs HERE 1. Andrew Bird – Imitosis (Four Tet Remix) [...]

Beach House get geographical

Beach House get geographical Talk about conformists!  Beach House's latest song Norway - more Scandinavian musical inspiration! - does nothing to dispel the 'dream pop' description that the Baltimore duo have long been given.  It's a tremulous, nicely-layered slowburn of a song, punctuated by gentle vocal hums and busy guitars, and founded as usual of Victoria Legrand's piercing voice.  She's often likened to Nico, but there's something of Patti Smith for me too - a much deeper, fuller sound than most female singers offer.   This all matters to a London blog because Beach House are due in our beloved smoghole early in 2010, in [...]
