summer skills – Austin Town Hall

New Music From ARMS

June 27, 2012 RayRay Leave a comment

Here’s a new upbeat jam from called “Summer Skills” from Brooklyn based band ARMS. Now some of you may take note that the band already has a song with this title so we’ve been instructed to tell you that this is more of a re-working of the old song. The original version of this tune appeared on an LP of same name that came out late last year. Hope you enjoy this “Bump in the night” take of this older song by the band.

More New Jams from ARMS

When we talked about the new album from ARMS a month back, it didn’t seem like the band had fully picked up steam just yet. But, now that the release of Summer Skills is nearing, more people are taking notice, and deservedly so. I love the off the hilt percussion usage in this new track, not to mention the sweeping melody that floats over it all. No need to hype this song, or album, up anymore, as it clearly is speaking for itself. What we might have lost in Harlem Shakes, we’ve definitely gained in ARMS.

New Tunes from ARMS (Todd Goldstein of Harlem Shakes)

August 25, 2011 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

In case you missed out on the now defunct Harlem Shakes, I’m here to let you know you missed something quite special. For now, we can all make due with ARMS, the project of Todd Goldstein, formerly of HS. He’s done some work on his own, but he’s now recruited a few friends to help flesh out the sound of ARMS. His new moniker in tow, he’ll be releasing Summer Skills on November 8. Some of the tracks, like the one below, you can find on a free EP over on the group’s BANDCAMP, but as for the rest, you’ll have to wait until November before you get to fall wholeheartedly in love.
