Kissing Book Reissue (S) + Bongo Remix
Way back in the yesteryear, Portland outfit Kissing Book released (s), but while it was originally out on CD, it is finally getting the Vinyl Reissue treatment via the band’s own Record Lovers. They’ve got this sound that feels like akin to early Kings of Convenience, incorporating soft jazz flourishes into a softened indiepop sound; the gentle wash is what provides the absolute charm that’ll keep you coming back. But, the band also have a little side-project going on, the Tiny Bongos, and they’ve stripped the song back to highlight the percussive element a little more. I’ve got “Hey Kids” in both the original and Tiny Bongo Remix version below, so give a listen.
Obviously, today is all about giving a dollar or two towards your favorite artists and labels, and trust us, that’s what we should be doing all year long. But, let’s not forget the music world still must go on too…and there’s a few releases today I wanted to turn your direction towards…maybe say a few words with some links for buying and what not. Check the jump and pick up some stuffs.
