It's been out for a couple of months, and somehow i failed to give it any attention, but i gotta say i'm digging on "Augustine," a single from Blood Orange's new album "Freetown Sound." It's wonderfully, deliriously 80's-inspired, like some kind of synthy, dreampop B-side Michael Jackson recorded in an alternate timeline. Watch the video below and grab the record from Domino.
So, this Friday is the dreaded Black Friday. As someone who works in retail, let me just say...ugh. Anyway, Record Store Day's Black Friday event sees a slew of new and limited releases hitting the shelves on the 27th, and while there really aren't many that piqued my interest, we are getting a new Ariel Pink 7", featuring an assist from Blood Orange's Dev Hynes. The two songs are taken from the film, "Heaven Knows What," and they're warped and spacey. Try to grab it on Friday at your local brick and mortar record store, and watch the video for A-side "I Need a Minute" below.
