disconaivete:
The best dream pop comes from Baltimore (just stating a fact here) and Secret Mountains happen to be from Baltimore and happen to be recording dream pop. What a coincidence. After a series of EP’s and singles, the sixtet are set to release their full-length debut Rainer through Friends…

verbreverb:
For the finish of 2011, I compiled a zine. I chose 22 songs that have meant the most to me this year - several of which were released this year, some of which further than a decade ago, all of which have made an irrevocable impact on my year as a 16 year old. On the front side of each…
Stoked for this.

yvynyl:
Sometimes, blogging pics from a show just doesn’t feel right nor genuine. There’s certainly nothing than can replace being there - feeling the sweat of a night and filling your ears with the entirety of a music. It’s probably too easy to simply snap a pic and quick send it up without commentary to say ‘hey, I’m there y’all.’ While that’ll do most times, last night’s Youth Lagoon...

Gem Club - Twins [Live]
This is a video straight off the camera, I just uploaded that I took at my buddy Dave of Stadium & Shrine’s CMJ showcase that also featured Pressed And, Noah Wall, Megafortress, and RxRy with live visuals by Nathaniel Whitcomb. The visuals for this set were done by BriAnna Oslon.
It was a gorg night in Greenpoint. Check the photos that were takin’ by...

Absent Fever // Exquisite Corpse
What can only be properly described it’s curators Tyler and Eloise have drummed up a neat project that features some of their finest artists on their label roster.
Composed by impulse and the stream of consciousness, seven juxtaposed artists came in union to create one collective vision; distinct and furthermore one. Seven of the Absent Fever...

– Tim Kreider, “In Praise of Not Knowing” (Reminds me of Bradford Cox’s advice for people who want to hear the next album from their favorite band: “pick up instruments and make your own version of what you would want it to sound like.”)

Flock of Dimes - Prison Bride
I might as well make this Baltimore Day.
I must insist you listen to this. If you listen to nothing else today you have to listen to this. I’m rarely this adamant about it but you needs this in your life. It’s the solo project of Jenn from Wye Oak and this is for the Friends Records 2011 comp.
Also do note dashboard viewers that this is a...

The idea initially was to recruit a few meditative sounds and sequence them into auditory motion. Then it swelled into eleven videos, taking that notion of motion more literally. We saw an opportunity here not only to…

Sir Clive Tanaka (the man that brought us Jet Set Siempre 1°) has spread his gracious arms and offered up a 77-minute mix of Valentine’s Day jams. Entitled Minuit et Tu (et Moi), it’s perfect fuel for your romantic (or perilously lonely) escapades. Dig it.
The man knows his romance.

First out the gates is Purity Ring, the project of Corin from GBL, and Megan James, who was in GBL’s first incarnation and whose spirit still lives on in the band. These are synth-warped, minimal, hiphop-inflected pop songs — glowy and irresponsibly hooky. (Tumblr, Facebook, …

LONELY HEARTS CLUB
saladfork:
Transparent Records always bring it with their 7”s, and their newest release is a split with Yuck and Porcelain Raft, covering each other’s songs. Yuck covers Porcelain Rafts’ Despite Everything, which was the B-side to his 500-copy 7” on Acephale Records and is still available here. I managed to get a copy of the clear sand-splatter run, a prime example of high-quality vinyl...
