In One Wind – What Seems (DM Stith Remix)
April 20, 2012 § Leave a comment
#Friday. Thanks to The 405’s soundcloud we’ve been reminded of a tune (What Seems To Be) that we liked a lot on first listen but somehow instantly forgot about right after we heard it. Sad how that can happen, but such is the fickle nature of our present day listening habits that it’s becoming an all too frequent occurrence. We thought we’d try and redeem ourselves slightly by posting a link to In One Wind’s album before we get lost in Friday night. So Here It Is.
Quakers – War Drums

Taken from the album ‘Quakers’
Out now on Stones Throw (iTunes)
#Friday. We’ve always been partial to a bit of old school around here. Throw Geoff Barrow into the mix and we were bound to be sold. That said, since grabbing a copy of the Quakers album last month, we haven’t found ourselves going in for the repeat listen quite as often as we thought we would. Maybe it’s the seemingly infinite (41 song) tracklist playing tricks on us. Either way War Drums remains a top pick. Give us another month or so and we might just have figured out our views on the rest of it.

Taken from the Echo of Love EP
Out 2 April Cross Keys Records
#Friday. (Marginal) vested interest alert but what the hell – the sun is shining and the song is good so we don’t care too much right now. Launch party at The George Tavern on the 4th April should be a fun eve (info here).

Taken from the 7″ single “Headlights” b/w “Horses”.
Release date TBC on Domino.
#Friday. A sprinkling of Portugal.The Man and hints of Besnard Lakes hiding out in the background of this new track by the Minneapolis trio. Not too many Prince references in there as far as we can tell but we’ll let them off this time. Still sounds great turned up.

Veronica Falls – My Heart Beats

#Friday. A new tune from Veronica Falls that’s been keeping us moving forwards this morning. We love the first 35 seconds in particular, but the other 142 ain’t half bad either.
