heist or hit records - Austin Town Hall

Super Single from Hers

April 11, 2017 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

Her’s are quickly becoming a new favorite of mine, and now they’re dropping another tune for you to enjoy. In contrast to the immediate infectiousness of “Speed Racer,” this new track takes a moment to turn on the charm, but believe you me, its every bit as enjoyable. The quick vocal turn during the chorus of “I’ll try for you” is perfectly charming, and definitely holds a certain British flare. They’ll be releasing their new collection, Songs of Her’s via Heist or Hit Records on May 12th…so I’ll definitely be in line to grab it.

Fun New Tune from Her’s

February 15, 2017 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

There’s a breed of frivolous pop out there that always gets you going, and I think Her’s are crafting precisely that. I can’t help but to recall bits of Junior Senior in their craftsmanship, maybe even mixed in with a little bit of J. Casablancas solo work. I mean, listen to the bass and tell me you don’t want to get up and shake it with the nearest person! Oh, and hand claps! Bring back hand claps! This tune will appear on their new collection, Songs of Her’s,which hits on March 12th via Heist or Hit Records.

Sea Moya’s “Bangalore” Binds Spells

April 6, 2016 brian.gray Leave a comment

Full disclosure, Heist or Hit Records is run by friends, but so is Austin Town Hall Records and they have great stuff, so come at me bro.

This song premiered over at The Music Ninja, but I had to share. It is an instrumental only track from Sea Moya called “Bangalore” and it is gorgeous. Organic and digital all at once, it has a texture to it that makes you zone out and lose track of time. It gets better on a second listen.

Up, Down and Up Jam from Fantasy Rainbow

September 18, 2012 brian.gray Leave a comment

Met The folks at Heist or Hit Records a few years back during SxSW through a mutual friend. Good people.

Saw on Bookface that one of their acts, nineteen year old Oliver Cat doing the music thing as Fantasy Rainbow, has a song up to stream via the 405’s Soundcloud. I took a listen and liked it and decided to share. The song “Condominium” will be on the album Bos Taurus, due in the UK on 10/29. Looking into US release info.

New York friends, he’ll be at CMJ.
