Lorelle Meets the Obsolete Announce Corporal

Leave a comment

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!

Upper Narrows Announce Over the Praire EP

Leave a comment

A good bedroom pop tune should never go to waste, thus I’m running back to this Upper Narrows tune from the other day, along with the announcement of a brand new EP. I took a lot of joy hearing how there’s a nice little wash of keyboard building ambiance in the distance on this one; it adds the perfect texture to a tune that feels like a late night serenade to a group of friends. Tyler Jackson’s voice has this great bit of pleasantry to it, like a kindness that’s built for bringing you joy on your saddest days. Look for the Over the Prairie EP, which drops on September 23rd via Repeating Cloud.

Dramatic Shapes Return with My AI

Leave a comment

After a bunch of releases, Dramatic Shapes went radio silent for a minute; musical creator Theodore Appert moved, then took some time off as he settled into life. That said, I love the return on this new track; the bass work alone on this track totally sticks in your brain, bobbing up and down just like your body will be doing. Open up the musical present and there’s all sorts of delights awaiting you, from a indifferent vocal appeal to these angular and discordant guitar licks dancing their way through its entirety. You could probably throw it in somewhere between Pylon and the Rapture, but the sound is a bit satiated with its pace, making some of the notes hit even deeper as it avoids the pitfalls of being too frantic.

New Music from Das Kope

Leave a comment

Das Kope has has been on the ATH radar for some time now, and with the announcement of his record, we wanted to be sure this new little banger was on your radar this week. The artist is really toying with our expectation, as his previous work has really been hyper-melodic and infectious. Don’t get us wrong, this tune does have a nice little bit of a hook, but it’s sort of disguised in this murky haze of sun. In the first minute, you’re subdued by this trickling bit of production, with a twisting guitar note that just seems suspended in the air. When it drops in, the pop connection is made, illustrating how far into the dramatic pop form Das Kope has gone; expect a new album to hit later this Summer.

Color Palette Release Nights Alone

Leave a comment

If you find Mondays, or every day at this point, a struggle, then you’re going to enjoy this Color Palette tune getting under your skin. It’ll hit you almost instantly, in a similar fashion to what you’d find on a recent Black Marble or Ducks Ltd. record. There’s certainly some post-punk energy, particularly in the way some of the guitars hit sharp notes and intertwine with this driving rhythm section. The infectious nature of the track swirls around with the cooled vocal flavoring giving a nice little dark coat to match the underlying melody of what’s pumping through your speakers. Good place to start the week with new tunes!

Alexei Shishkin Announces Good Times

Leave a comment

Spent last night at a bar called Good Times, so waking up to the announcement of a new record from Alexei Shishkin of the same name seems serendipitous. And, with that announcement comes this great tune, filling us in on the promise of Alexei’s forthcoming work. He’s operating with the perfect balance, if you ask me, as the track carefully plods in with some light notes, setting the backdrop for the tune. He fills that in with a bit of a bolder noise, pushing the sonic level way up high in a way that reminds me of a modern twist on some of the early Grandaddy LPs. Good Times will be released by Rue Defense on September 5th.

Thanks Light Share Costa Rica

Leave a comment

If ever a song was justified as existing on this site, it would absolutely have to be the latest track from Austin’s Thanks Light. You see, both RayRay and I have spent time in Costa Rica, myself having lived there for some time, so the thematic reference of the happiness of that country definitely feel like they hit home. They’re offered in a playful style, sort of like a Texas version of “pura vida,” with twanging guitars being bent and stretched beneath a summery heat whilst elegant keys give the track a little more proverbial meat. Just a gentle sway in the breeze, like sitting beachside and sleeping in a hammock, “way down in Costa Rica.”

Moviola Share Slage Wave Video

Leave a comment

There is something to be said about a band that’s 30 years down the road and still banging out masterful hits, like Ohio’s Moviola. They’re dropping their 11th album, Earthbound, at the end of this summer, and our latest listen has this casual bit of warm indie rock coming through your speakers. In a sense, it has the same musical sentiment that you’d find in an old Lucksmiths LP, offering these well-thought out melodies in simplistic forms that keep you returning to find solace in the music you love. I’ll admit, there’s nothing blowing your hair back in that modern sense, but rather you’re treated to great songwriting and arrangements that should put the new LP on your radar. Earthbound hits on August 29th via Dromedary Records.

Aus!Funkt Drop New Single

Leave a comment

If you woke up today looking for a little bit of musical energy to carry you to the end, might you try on this Aus!Funkt jam that dropped today? The Montreal outfit just dropped a AA single today, and man, the rhythmic pulse of this tune below is just too solid not to crank up. Almost instantly your body is propelled into motion, whether that’s full body swaying or toe-tapping, you can’t deny the fashionable pulse of this hit. They flesh out the track with layers of shadowy vocals to pull on those dark-wave notes, with other musical excursions blasting all around the track. Don’t hesitate, and just click play!

Fortunato Durutti Marinetti Drops a Perfect Pair

Leave a comment

There aren’t a lot of songwriters working in the fashion of Fortunato Durutti Marinetti; in a sense, he resembles more of a troubadour at a lounge, though is wordplay is far more sophisticated. On this tune, the track is a subtle love ballad, and its the subtleties that draw you in as the track unfolds. You’ll find these little keyboard stabs, giving a lift to Marinetti’s vocal delivery, sort of operating like a dance around one another. The guitar licks within have a little shimmy, sort of wiggling about in the background, though they recede for the sublime little breakdown in the song’s latter half. If this style fits your needs, grab Bitter Sweet, Sweet Bitter from Quindi Records on July 25th.
