The first time I heard Vampire Weekend was like many people upon the release of their debut self-titled album back in 2008. I was working a dead end job, but at the point of my first listen, it was spring, and the music was perfectly uplifting: bright, upbeat, pop music with sentiment and heart. The songs revolved around subjects like college, Lil' Jon, and all things east coast, and these subjects can seem a little trivial. This doesn't mean that the album wasn't great, but the group had room to grow, likening themselves to schoolboys. When [...]

Bonne nouvelle - Baio est de retour ce mois avec deux nouvelles tracks! Après nous avoir fait dansé cet été avec Sunburn Modern - EP (sorti en juin chez Greco-Roman ), Chris Baio persiste et signe avec ces deux tracks beaucoup plus electro que celles de son premier EP. La chaleur de son electro-pop estivale laisse place à la précision des beats du nightclub. En attendant de découvrir ce qu'il nous réserve avec sa formation initiale (en parlant de Vampire Weekend, je vous conseille aussi d'écouter le projet de Rostam ), laissez vous tenter [...]
Maquillados como calaveras por el festejo de Halloween, Vampire Weekend , la banda liderada por Ezra Koenig , se presentó ayer en el programa Jimmy Kimmel Live! y estrenó Unbelievers .

Stream or download both songs below, and enter a world that "draws the listener deep into a long sleepless night of dubbed vocals, smokey rooms and flickering VHS tapes".

C'est à Irwin Barbé que nous devons aujourd'hui dois la découverte de Baio, l'utilisation de « Sunburn » dans son teaser réalisé pour le compte de la boutique Craie nous permettait ainsi de découvrir l'electro baléarique de Chris Baio (bassiste de Vampire Weekend). Prenez garde, la musique de Baio est la chose plus rafraîchissante qui parviendra à nos tympans cet été. A tous ceux qui sont en quête du tube parfait à écouter pour se prélasser au bord de la piscine/au balcon (on fait avec les moyens du bord), il va falloir vous procurer l'EP solaire du [...]
Vampire Weekend bassist Chris Baio released his solo EP titled Sunburn last month and dropped a video for the lead track, "Sunburn Modern" yesterday for the world to see. The video follows around a blonde mannequin as she wanders around various parts of Brooklyn before stopping for a sunbathe in the park. They did such a good job with this video that after awhile you mostly forget that she's supposed to be "not real". You can grab Baio's EP over on iTunes .
The tunes a bit boring but the video's great - check it out below: Sunburn Modern is taken from New York musician (and Vampire Weekend bassist) Chris Baio ’s new EP, Sunburn , currently available via Greco-Roman .
Gotta admit I never expected Vampire Weekend's bassist, Chris Baio to be producing such tropical Balearic goodness. It's a Greco-Roman release (home to TEED and Hot Chip's Joe Goddard) so I guess it shouldn't be that much of a surprise. I'm not sure where I first heard his Sunburn EP but as soon as I did I had to indulge and make the purchase. I'm in love with the melty delicious track "Sunburn Modern", it reminds me of something John Talabot would have his hands in. Can't give this one away or the Greco-Romans will wrestle [...]

Há algumas semanas ouvimos " Tanto ", o single do baixista dos Vampire Weekend Chris Baio com o chileno Matias Aguayo. Agora podemos ouvir na íntegra das 3 faixas do EP Sunburn , disco recheado de ritmos electrónicos que aquecem a pele. Longe do afro-beat dos Vampire, Baio recorre aos seus melhores truques de Dj para entregar cocktails de batidas house, palmas digitais e baixos empolados, preparados para fazer mexer as melhores esplanadas. EP Sunburn está disponível via Greco-Roman e no itunes . [...]
It's not very well documented, but Chris Baio has always had an unbridled enthusiasm for electronic music, though he's never had a chance to put it to any use. It seems this realisation has dawned on him recently, and with some urgency, as he makes up for lost time by embarking on a solo mission to produce his own music as Baio. In a recent interview with XLR8R he stated "As a teenager growing up in the suburbs, I would write a song on guitar and then play it with [...]
Sarebbe bello se uscisse quest'anno. Ho sempre voluto pubblicare i dischi il prima possibile, ma più vado avanti più realizzo che è qualcosa su cui non puoi quasi avere il controllo. Non siamo mai voluti essere in quella posizione per cui dopo aver fatto uscire un album pensi che avrebbe avuto bisogno di più tempo. A parlare è Ezra Koenig dei Vampire Weekend , qualche giorno fa ai microfoni dell'NME. Disco in arrivo entro l'anno? Il gruppo è al lavoro e le premesse ci sono. Intanto il magazine inglese ha intervistato Chris Baio, [...]
