Lorelle Meets the Obsolete Announce Corporal
You will certainly needs some patience with the new single from Mexico’s Lorelle Meets the Obsolete. This is not due to you having to adjust, but rather the way the group have formulated their new release, creating this sort of step by step build to the completed tune. At first, its all minimalism, beats and ambiance built in to accompany the visualizer; they layer vocals and a little bit of a more pronounced beat on top, letting that ride for another minute or so. Still, the song’s not even started, until that groove drops in and the beats just move back and forth, growing more punchy and bold. The wash of electronics that hits you in the latter half is a perfect benchmark for what’s to come on their new album Corporal, showing they can play with both the abstract and mainstream in their songwriting; the new LP is out on October 10th. Ven a Tejas amigos!
The ATH team split up on Saturday, as we all had different musical agendas; JWags was bouncing all around the downtown area, hustling to catch as much as possible, while Nathan headed to the Far Out for a day filled with traditional psychedelic sounds. Check out how our days went!
For the past however many years, 
Admittedly, we might have outdone ourselves last week; I’m fairly certain I’m the one to blame. Somehow, we tossed up 40 songs, though a few are unavailable in the streaming sites, so you’ve only got 38 tracks on this week’s playlist. There’s a ton of Austin stuff, with new music from Daiistar, Semihelix, Half Dream and more…obligatory A Giant Dog is in there and such. Plus, still continuously impressed by the magic that is Prewn. Oh, and Australia’s buzzing at the moment, and their music isn’t half-bad either, with new tracks from the Small Intestines and Soft Covers being considered as must listens. So, if you’ve got an hour or two to kill…go on and stream!
