Alan Licht and Brian Chase

Here's an echoed and cavernous ambient number from Alan Licht and Brian Chase (Yeah Yeah Yeahs) from the duo's upcoming album "We Thought We Could Do Anything" on New Images.  "Immediate Release" feels sprawling but somehow contracting at the same time.  It's beautiful, haunting fuzz.  Listen below and look for the album next month.

Egyptian Sports Network

Egyptian Sports Network is Matt Mondanile of Ducktails and Real Estate fame and Spencer Clark of The Skaters.  The duo's aesthetic could best be described as warped library music from some 80's local network television station or cable access channel blasted through outer space using rudimentary tools.  So yeah, i'm hooked on this trip.  "Leo in Cyan" has the added benefit of Mark McGuire of Emeralds on synthesizer duty.  Listen below and pre-order the "Interstitial Luxor" EP from New Image Records.
