Interesting new mixtape coming from the new found Bromance family/label. No future techno sounding riffs this time, but a mix of house and 902s hip-hop by L.A. based duo Pipes . The mixtape features track from own production to get promo going for an upcoming ep, keep your eyes open for that one if you're digging this mixtape.

LA-based electro pop artist, Kauf has been on my radar since his first single 'Relocate' was released late last Winter. Though he has been pretty quietly working on a full-length album since the April release of his second single 'When You're Out,' Kauf just reappeared with a stellar remix of Brooklyn dream pop trio Tony Castles' 'Heart In The Pipes.' No word yet on when we can expect the full length but it's definitely something to look forward to! 'Heart In The Pipes' (Kauf Remix) - Tony Castles 'When You're Out' - [...]

Stay Pretty - Soft Pipes Artists detailing and recording their creative process has been done again and again, and for good reason; learning about where things you love spring from is absolutely fascinating. Also, by and large, rock stars are very interesting, creative people - probably another reason we love hearing them talk so much. Check out this mini-documentary detailing the process of Anthony Policno recording the new Soft Pipes (@softpipes) EP, Stay Pretty . While you're at it- download one of the tracks from the EP. It's [...]

Australian singer-songwriter Sarah Blasko gave Brighton's Green Door Store a perhaps over-generous 17-song set on Saturday, accompanied on all but one song by Benjamin Fletcher on guitar and Matthew Guest on piano – and occasionally hitting the keys/ukulele strings herself. As well as songs from all three of her solo albums, Blasko opened with 'Bring Me Back', a track from this year's Seeker, Lover, Keeper – a new collaboration with fellow Aussie singers Holly Throsby and Sally Seltmann. Those present also heard three [...]

Tweet The way "Stay Pretty" kicks off with the line "goodbye my dear looks like you weren't the one", I was expecting a typical backhanded compliment kind of negative time-to-split song. Only with every line it sinks in that this has to be one of the more optimistic break-up songs to ever be created. My complete respect is for this song. I can't help but wonder why someone who handles splitting up like an adult rather than some jealous 13 year old is so [...]

It sounds like the Beatles piano-driven tracks, and is that ever a bad thing? I don't quite know the correct phrase for members of the '90s indie group, the Olivia Tremor Control: best of friends, or incestual? Even when the group took some time off in 2000, they all continued to play on each other's projects (Circulatory System, the Instruments, the late BP Helium). However, Peter Erchick's Pipes You See, Pipes You Don't is without a doubt the most accessible, paying homage to the more-piano driven tracks in the...
![[Indie] Introducing Pipes You See, Pipes You Don’t](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/3565120_lg.jpg)
Olivia Tremor Control's keyboardist, Peter Erchick, has been around for a while, having put out his first solo record (Individualized Shirts) under the name Pipes You See, Pipes You Don't all the way back in 2001. Since then he's been fairly elusive, with only a 2003 release keeping his name about. Now he's back with a new album, the oddly-titled 'Lost In The Pancakes', and what a startling comeback it is. Highlight track 'The Train In The Station', with its cheery piano and vocals, is reminiscent of The Beatles at their poppiest. Other stand-out songs include [...]

Anthony Polcino emerged from the shadow of his role as guitarist in Low Vs Diamond last autumn, when, doing business as Soft Pipes , he self-released a very good homemade album "When You're Done Here You Get to Go Home." Since then, abetted by Christopher Pappas and Miracle Parade , Polcino has assembled a live band and started to stretch out. Soft Pipes' forthcoming new EP, "Stay Pretty," represents the songwriter "going for it a little more," he says, with a bigger sound, grander atmospherics and more sophisticated instrumentation. The change-of-pace chorus in the title track [...]
Previous tracks, from Tony Castles' five-song No Source EP, have leavened the Brooklyn band's natural, lazing sweetness with fuzz and whimsy , or barking guitars . But this new one dispenses with all that scruff to deliver a dewy-eyed core. This is a good thing, because Tony Castles do dewy well. There's a lagging ease to the guitar and vocals of "Heart In The Pipes" that recalls Galaxie 500 a la Real Estate, or "Albatross"-era Fleetwood Mac ala Lake; it's the sort of lagging ease that paints bittersweet lyrics well. It's a walk through a house, [...]
Okay, enough is enough. I backed into a car yesterday, moved to get away from it and hit something else. The collision place says $700 to fix both areas. Why not, I say. I'm getting used to living under a dark cloud. I'm now extra careful going up and downstairs, throw salt over my shoulder and avoid ladders. I refuse to get my hopes too high, but today has started a bit better. Here's the good news: it's not the water heater but a corroded copper pipe which is now being replaced. All my flowers got planted, the [...]
