Man I Need // Exercise (White Label version) by Jagwar Ma

If this two-songer is any indication of what to expect from Howlin — this Australian duo sometimes trio’s debut coming in June — then I’ve found the soundtrack to my summer.

Thousand Year Old Child by Pure X

Take a listen to the third single from Pure X’s upcoming Crawling Up the Stairs LP (due out mid-May). I really dig the noise-chill I guess I’m going to call it.

Wild Nothing Empty State 2013 Jack Tatum music Captured Tracks

A Dancing Shell by Wild Nothing

c/o perfectmidnightworld:

Empty State (Out 5.14.13 via Captured Tracks)

Well, this is a pleasant surprise. Less than a year after releasing the lovely, “Nocturne”, Jack Tatum has once again stepped out as Wild Nothing to release new music, this time in the form of a 7 track EP entitled, “Empty State”. Further good news, is that the first taste of the forthcoming release is already on the internet for everyone to enjoy. “A Dancing Shell” is the first single, and you will notice almost immediately that we’re in a different zone here than previous Wild Nothing releases. The new track is loaded with swirling, late night synths that give off a generally more relaxed and free form atmosphere. The dreamy jangle pop guitars that have guided many of the artist’s finest cuts are still there, but they’re sharing stage with 80’s tinged electro pop textures and even something resembling a distorted bit of sax (perhaps inspired by his recent trip to Miami’s neon hued nights, or his renewed admiration for Brian Eno and David Bowie). It all makes for an exciting listen and a warm weather sound that is just in time to soundtrack those summer night parties.

BLACK COFFEE » a GFYE mix

There’s no real reason for this title, other than I think black coffee and these songs are really good. That and, Twin Peaks is awesome and I love Agent Cooper’s opinions on the hot beverage.

I Wish You Knew Jim Morrison by Heroes for Sale
directed by Thunderlips

yvynyl:

17-year-old Kiwi rockers Fraser Hunter and Adison Whitley go literally balls out on this new video by New Zealand directing duo Thunderlips. Calling it a ‘romp’ would be a bit of an understatement - nudity abounds, cock socks, babies, pillow fights. C’mon. Get into it. Jeff the Brotherhood would be proud. You reading this, boys?

Find this track and more on their Bndcmp.

Awesome.
