Yesterday we had the chance to handpick some of our current favorite songs for BBC 6Music Now Playing with Tom Robinson and live tweet about our picks. In case you missed out, you can head over to their website and listen to the broadcast . If you liked any of the songs we picked and don't have them already, we have links to individual streams of the songs plus ways you can own each and every one for yourself (there are some freebies in here FYI!) For those of you who heard it, please let us know [...]
I love putting together our monthly mixtapes. It's fun slowly compiling the tracks over the course of the month; it's fun sequencing the tracks for the mix; and I love that "ah ha" moment when I realize the mix is finally done. All of the pieces for this one fell into play last night, and although I normally like living with my mixes for awhile before sharing them, this one just seemed ready to be set free. You'll find lots of great new music from familiar artists like Aesop Rock, steffaloo, and Ty Segall and White Fence, but this mix [...]
The music recorded by Jesse Cohen and Eric Emm, the two guys behind the Brooklyn's Tanlines , could make a great case study in the way music, bands, and recording have changed in the past few decades. For example, a few years ago Cohen was best known as the frontman behind the dance-punk quintet Professor Murder (a name borrowed from a pair of skits on the fantastic sketch-comedy show Mr. Show ). Meanwhile, Emm performed in the math rock band Don Caballero (which also took it's name from a skit-comedy show: Second City Television ). In addition to [...]

Tanlines are the Brooklyn electronic pop duo of Jesse Cohen and Eric Emm. They released their debut album last week on True Panther called Mixed Emotions . Tanlines play Making Time on Friday, April 13th at Voyeur. Below, in exchange for your e-mail address, download "Brothers."
The music of Tanlines — the pairing of singer-keyboardist Eric Emm and multi-instrumentalist Jesse Cohen — finds a lightsome spot in the nooks and crannies of ’80s revivalism, or at least one illuminated by a disco ball. Subtle polyrhythms, bouncy synths, swooping melodies — their album "Mixed Emotions" (out last week via True Panther) is enough to get everybody off their fannies. Which "All of Me" does in the video by director Julian Barratt ("The Mighty Boosh"). Brilliantly done. And I could swear I've seen younger versions of those club-goers in Echo Park. ||| Download: [...]
It feels good to get back into the old routine. After SXSW it felt like it'd be awhile since we had a normal week (not that this has been an entirely normal week). Still, there was no way I'd let the week pass without either a Single Serving or a Served Three Ways (Served Three Ways will return next week). This week we have a lot of great new tunes including music recommended to me by Andrianna from Gluttony Is The New Black and discovered courtesy of a showcase hosted by Connor of [...]

Calling it "All of Me", this catchy rhythm is sure to get you off your feet and dancing on this lousy hump of a day. Mixed Emotions is set to drop March 20 via True Panther.

Tweet vaso link Tanlines, the Brooklyn-based electronic duo, released the first track from their new album nearly a week ago at this point. Culled from their upcoming debut Mixed Emotions , which will be released on March 20th through True Panther , "Brothers" continues on with the pair's dense indie electro. They've tapped into something basic, almost inborn with their music; it was evident on their 2010 EP, Settings . Theirs is the music of our shared past, [...]
For all their love of grimy funk and skittering beats, I never thought I'd hear deadCAT sound this dreamy and chill, but the duo's latest single — appropriately titled "tanlines" — is just that. Led by wistful synths and stuttering percussion, the song seems destined to drown in a sea of haze and sun-baked nostalgia, but there's enough bite in Britt Teusink's diffuse vocals to keep it from becoming too laid-back and listless. There's a fluidity here that's impressive, and the underlying instrumentation seems to reveal new surprises with every listen. It's not their best effort by any [...]
Tweet Listen to and download the new Tanlines song "Brothers" below, taken from their upcoming new album "Mixed Emotions" . 2010 was a fairly prolific year for Tanlines , releasing an EP ( "Settings" ), an album with Brooklyn's Restless People , as well as a single for "Real Life" , and now they're back with a new album called "Mixed Emotions" . Yesterday they [...]
Eric Emm and Jessie Cohen have been making music together for a bit now, but make no mistake, they aren't quite related. Despite that fact, they have gone on to craft a splendid single, "Brothers". While it isn't nearly as catchy or upbeat as the song that got me hooked on this duo, it feeds a hunger that has sat in my stomach for over a year. "Brothers" will sit on Tanlines debut full-length Mixed Emotions , which is set to drop March via True Panther . [ via ] Stream [...]

Although Tanlines’ recent EP “Settings” is more irritating than it is consistent, its one redeeming feature is the magnificent “Real Life”. But even as redeeming features go, this is one pretty special punch of afro-disco, with a coasting chorus that’s as infectious as MRSA, if slightly less deadly. Here’s hoping that the expected album will deliver the fatal blow. Tanlines – Real Life
