The Body & Cel Genesis

November brings us new chaos from heavy Portland duo The Body, this time around paired with Oakland experimental and industrial-tinged electronic act Cel Genesis.  Check out the sparse, ominous, and still noisy "Candy Crush" below and pre-order the "Whole Wide World" LP here from Thrill Jockey.


The Bug + Friday Night Plans

Last month, UK electronic musician and producer The Bug started the "Ladybug" series via his PRESSURE record label, an ongoing string of collaborations with different artists.  The second in the series features trippy beats and broken, dreamy grooves with Japanese artist Friday Night Plans.  Check out "Miss U" below and download it, along with a number of different mixes, here.


Mondoriviera

For years LA based record label Not Not Fun has been the place to go for weird and warbled sounds, dubby, underwater psychedelia, new age, and pop for the masses.  And they're still killing it.  The latest comes from Italian artist Mondoriviera and his new "La Laguna Dei Bei Sogni" cassette.  Dig on the hazy, lo-fi mutant pop of "Fikisan" below and grab the album here.


Daily Jam - I've Been Waiting for You

Good afternoon everyone.  Here's some Neil Young.  Listen to "I've Been Waiting for You," our Daily Jam.

Allison Lorenzen

Here's a beautiful new ambient-inspired track from Denver based artist Allison Lorenzen.  "Healing Vibrations II" serves as an excellent accompaniment to the artist's "Deploy the Stars Upon thy Chest" from earlier this summer.  Gorgeous, soothing, and melancholic, it's music that speaks to the soul.  Check it out below and download it here.


Honey Radar

We always have room for some new Honey Radar around these parts, and so we have "Let's Talk About Swimming," the band's new 10" EP.  GBV vibes abound, which is always a good thing.  Check out the short and sweet "Fencing" below and grab the record here from the band.


Marissa Nadler and Milky Burgess

Here's a new track from Marissa Nadler, a collaboration with Milky Burgess, of an old time pop song by The Little Dippers and Billy Walker, later popularized by Pete Drake.  Listen to "Forever" below and download it here.


The Drin

The excellent Cincinnati band The Drin dropped a great new single back in May with the release of "The Pigs of Silver Linings," and they follow that up with the announcement of their upcoming and epic new album "I Lost My Way for Centuries."  First taste "Haven't Live It Yet" takes the band's lo-fi post punk sound and infuses it with a kind of dubby and chugging, krautrock-tinged psychedelic flair.  Really, really cool stuff.  This one just jumped to the top of my anticipated fall releases.  Dig on the track below and pre-order the LP here from Feel It Records.


Daily Jam - Darkness

I am having a much needed lazy weekend full of laying around, movies, and reading.  And some jams from King Khan & The Shrines.  Here they are with "Darkness," our Daily Jam.

Almost an Island

I've had a ridiculously long couple of weeks filled with 4am wakeup times and 13-hour work days.  Needless to say, i'm pooped.  So let's sit back and relax with some gentle, dreamy, ambient-tinged sounds from Almost an Island.  Snag the "Few Words Are Enough" EP cassette here from Past Inside the Present and listen to the gorgeous and transcendent title track below.
