Said The Lady To The Man
Bubble Porch, 2009
Dirty Projectors – Useful Chamber – Off of their latest release, Bitte Orca, a truly remarkable and original album. Along with Micachu & The Shapes‘ Jewellery, one of the most unique compositions I’ve heard in quite a long time. Beatlesque in the different parts with sudden tempo changes that make this a standout track on an album packed with highlights .
Siriusmo – The Door – From frequent Modeselektor contributor and now the first official release on their new record label, Monkeytown.
Wavves – So Bored – This is Nathan Williams. Is this hipster new school DIY punk? Maybe. I still won’t buy a pair of Wayfarers.
The Pixies – Hey (Live) – I heard this song a few months back when I saw Kevin Smith’s Zach and Miri Make A Porno and it once again reminded me of the genius of this group. This on again, off again Boston band makes, or made music that is beyond the normal understanding of words with music. They make movies in which you need to provide the visuals while they supply your inner thoughts that are perfectly soundtracked with their music.
