Posted in Play-This-List We’re taking on a slight change of pace with this Weekend’s Tunage, and a step back to 2006. An album that I’ve gone back to over the past few weeks is Midlake’s The Trials of Van Occupanther, a classic no frills indie/folk rock album. ‘Young Bride’ is my hands down favorite. Before there was Fleet [...]

Side projects are usually a means of branching out from the suffocating restrictions of being a small cog in the bigger wheel of the band. They're a means for an artist to express themselves, go their own way, expand themselves musically. With his Tunng offshoot Diagrams , Sam Genders dares to be different, on his debut solo album Black Light he plants his feet firmly inside his comfort zone preferring to photocopy the Tunng template and serve up a blend of English folk and gentle electronica, or folktronica as it has been somewhat obviously termed, familiar to fans of his ...

Les albums de 2011 (par ordre alphabétique) ASAP Rocky - LiveLoveA$AP Les albums/mixtapes gratuites sur internet sont à l'honneur sur 2011 (The Weeknd, Frank Ocean, Clams Casino, Terius Nash, Gvxxi Vvmp...). Cette galette d'ASAP Rocky n'est pas géniale de bout en bout mais contient de bons morceaux (principalement ceux produits par Clams Casino) The Black Keys - El Camino Pas particulièrement fan de leurs albums précédents mais le côté pop bien produit par Danger Mouse me plaît bien sur celui-ci.

Back in April after we had first heard Tamer Animals by Other Lives we described it as ‘a flawlessly subtle piece of work that becomes even more giddying and beautiful with every listen.’ Eight months on we resolutely stand by that statement. For Tamer Animals is one of those rich, evocative records that’s so immaculately crafted that once your ears have heard it once, they’ll want to be treated to its elegance many, many times more. To apply a genre to Tamer Animals seems unfair insofar as it puts the shackles on this cinematic, suspenseful music, but if ...
