Tweet This post is a "QuickPick". QuickPicks are my attempt at getting all of the music that's sent to me that I like (or just music I like but have no words for because it's so awesome), out into the dubya dots.

L'EP de tUnE-YaRdS , BiRd-BrAiNs , me rend dingue. C'est de la folk expérimentale, super addictive, super bizarre parfois. Et puis au bout de 2 ou 3 écoutes... le côté bizarre s'évapore et c'est juste une nouveauté canadienne géniale de [...]
