New Music (ish) from Brain Idea

Chicago’s Brain Idea has been bubbling beneath the surface of indie-rock stardom for some time now, but it’s going to be their most recent release on Mexican Summer, the Cosmos Factory EP, that’s going to be winning every one over this year.  It’s a brief little collection, but those of you with nostalgic leanings for all things New Zealand sounding will find your home with this little effort.  There’s that echo blend between atmospherics and bits of melody, and it’s completely winning me over this evening.  I’m sure many of you will find appreciation in the EP, and their back catalog on Permanent Records.
