Track Premiere: Lymbc Systm Remix “Paraboloid”

Leave a comment

lymbcsystmIt seems like when Mike and Jared Bell of Lymbc Systm go to work, they just go full blast. They’re fresh off a US tour with Foxing, which came on the back of their recently released (and excellent) Split Stones LP (via Western Vinyl). One of those tracks gets the remix treatment here, with some subtle touches that offer a softer approach to “Paraboloid.” The wash of atmospherics and the burst of pop emotion has been pulled back slightly, leaving you with a chilled version of the track. The duo is currently working on an EP that will be released by their label later on this year, including a remix by Austin musician Botany. You can find the original version of the song HERE, and stream the remix below. Don’t forget to grab the LP too!

Fresh Instrumental from Lymbyc Systym

wv141I’m not usually one to get drawn into instrumental music (I’ve always had a thing for lyrics), but there are a few bands that have done it right, winning me over.  Long ago, Lymbyc Systym was one of those, so it’s exciting to see them crafting some new music for their label Western Vinyl.  Their latest single,which hit on Friday, has this expansive electronic quality, though they incorporate brief samples, much as Mogwai or local boys EITS have done. For me, I’m just amazed at how impactful a song over 6 minutes can be, whilst still holding your attention.  Look for Split Stones on October 16th.
