Last Week’s Jams (2.26 – 3.1)

As we ramp up towards SXSW, things have been in full swing over at the ATH camp. We ran a bunch of our “getting-to-know-you” interviews with the Ophelias, Jess Cornelius, Tigercub and Native Harrow. But, we also covered a shit-ton of new music that’s worth revisiting, if you’re up for it. Our old friends Blushing dropped a new tune from their next LP, plus we got to hear more from Dancer and Torrey in relation to their new releases. Long time ATH faves like Mo Troper and Rosie Tucker made an appearance too, with each having their own new records on the horizon. Plus, a bunch of other greats like Red Sleeping Beauty, Klaus Johann Grobe, Non La and more…so dive on in.

Yasu Cub Shares Elevator Video

Those of us looking for sounds that would be traditionally described as slow-core might want to check out Japans Yasu Cub. They’ve just released their Elevator EP, and the title track gets the video treatment, featuring the falling snows of Tokyo. Aside from the pacing, there’s some really nuanced moments that really hit me smack in the face as I was listening through, like the crispness of the guitars that ring out carefully. I loved how the song seemed to also circle back on itself in spots, with layers lapping over one another ornately, allowing the song to feel like its bending and coiling up…held together by the heavy vocal notes in the center of the mix. If you’re digging, then be sure to check out the whole Elevator EP.
