Ben Vince

London-based experimental musician and saxophonist Ben Vince dropped new album "Street Druid" last week, a mix of otherworldly, sometimes airy, sometimes noirish tracks of tape loops, electronics, and sax.  Check out the spacey "Peace Spell" below and grab the LP here from AD 93.

Slow Dancing Society & City of Dawn

It's not even 10AM here yet, but i'm listening to the moodiest of midnight jams right now with "A City Asleep," a track from "The Dream Season," a collaborative LP between the excellently named Slow Dancing Society (Drew Sullivan) and City of Dawn (Damien Duque).  The album is a sleepy mix ambient electronica and subtle noirish vibes, a sonic picture of a city after dark.  Check the track out below and pre-order the download here from Past Inside the Present.

Moderator

Greek artist Moderator trades in the sounds of trip-hop, electronic, and more on upcoming new album "Silent Cinema."  True to the title, the LP carries a cinematic aesthetic that can be heard in all its noir-ish glory on album opener "Dark Art."  Check it out below and pre-order the album here from Melting Records.

The Saxophones

Oakland based husband and wife duo The Saxophones released their new album "No Time for Poetry" earlier this month, a mix of baroque pop, exotica, lounge, and noirish jazz.  The whole thing plays like some kind dark and strange film, black and white images in a smoky haze.  Check out the album opening "Too Big for California" below and get the LP here from Full Time Hobby.

HiFiKlub & Alain Johannes

Here's a cool new foreboding and cinematic track from HiFiKlub and Alain Johannes that feels perfect for the season or like the soundtrack to a film about a killer stalking the streets of LA.  Listen to "My Hand with a Knife" below and download the song here from Library of the Occult.

The Saxophones

California husband and wife duo The Saxophones are back with new track "Burning with Desire," a retro and jazzy lounge number that sounds like old Hollywood, cinematic and romantic with a dash of noir.  Check it out below and download it here from Full Time Hobby.

Daily Jam - Dead Heat

Let's go with some moody, brooding, noir-ish vibes to start the day.  Here's a track from the indelible Barry Adamson.  Listen to "Dead Heat" below, our Daily Jam.
