Spring already? Thank the chuff for that. Bits of me
were getting distinctly frostbitten. Here’s a bunch of stuff that somehow seeped
into the old ears this week...
Youth Lagoon (Trevor Powers to his ma and pa) conjures
up this trippy mix of psych gaze, perfect for turning on, tuning in and
dropping out to. Stick with it, it takes a minute or two to hit its stride...
Okay, this ain’t new but I’ve only just started
hearing it on 6 Music. Scroobius Pip vs DJ Yoda. Freakin’ awesome.
Post punk. Yeah! Skinny boys with skinny ties
drinking skinny lattes. It’s a skinny thing. London’s Snapped Ankles add a
little dance floor groove to the underground sound of 79-81.
What is it with geeky looking white dudes dancing
like freaks but looking as cool as a polar bear in a deep freeze (see also the
bloke from Dutch Uncles)? 2013. The year of the geek dance. Oh yeah...this art
rock beauty from Cymbals makes a pretty ace soundtrack too.
Everything that Public Service Broadcasting does is top
notch. Fusing Krautrock style motoric beats to old Public Information films
might not sound like a particularly attractive concept but it just works so
darn well. Here’s their latest...out as special Record Day 7 inch vinyl release
on April 20th
