The Durutti Column - Sketch for Summer

Hat tip to my buddy Jake of Speaker Snacks

SO, SO GOOD. I’m so glad I pre-ordered the vinyl. You can thank the wonderful folks at SoundCloud and The Guardian for the stream.

POND - Cloud City

Perth band that happens to have various bros from Tame Impala at anyone time. While they do not sound the same there is still that psych influence it’s much more of a pop sound. My friend who I cued in yesterday, said it sounded like a chilled Scissor Sisters.

hat tip psychedelicmango for generating interest.

We Are Each Other - This Is Not Our Home

These guys are opening for Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros. I think it’s the perfect match up to the MAX.

So free. However their digital 45 isn’t, it’s 2 bucks which you can pick up here: http://weareeachother.bandcamp.com/

Porcelain Raft - Tip of Your Tongue

I would generally save a track like this for during the week because things tend to be a little slow during the weekends but I need to share this. An one-man project of recording and playing live with guitars, sampler, loops and keyboard. A sound that could probably be described of a twist of shoegaze and dream pop. Which to some basically sounds like the same thing…

If you’re in the U.K. specifically London you might want to try and check him out. He’s got a couple shows in the coming weeks.

My review of the Panda Bear 7”: Slow Motion > Tomboy

For those who don’t understand: Slow Motion > Tomboy. It means I think “Slow Motion” is better than “Tomboy”.
