Data Dog – Twists & Turns and Dangerous Twists
If you’re one of those who talk about a summer night like it’s current events, or romanticize a night fair in Hyannis despite never being there, or are convinced that cars sweeping on a nearby road can often sound like the ocean, Data Dog will make sense to you. This band writes in that same vacant atmosphere that a band like Deerhunter can, leaving lots of space between the rock song, the humble electronics, and your ear.

Deadmau5 – Faxing Berlin
I may be a little late on the draw for deadmau5 but i haven’t been on an aural adventure like this since, dare i say, the first time i listened to Orbital .
Random Album Title’s bass is so good it will lull you to sleep while in a different setting, could keep you raving till morning. Check out the evolution of “Faxing Berlin” (Pt’s I & II).
Flying Lotus – Do the Astral Plane
Flying Lotus has really outdone himself with his new album Cosmogramma. I loved his last one, Los Angeles, but this one just feels fuller, wider and overall nastier. Also, what’s a Cosmogramma? Cosmo Gramma – like grandma in space? (Not funny? Ok.)
Preorder Cosmogramma here. It comes out May 3.
Le Le – Breakfast
Le Le, puts together a simple beat but it’s got such a groove that it will have you shaking your head no even though you want some more. Get another serving here.
Explode Into Colors – Heat
This song, and every other one I’ve managed to find of Explode Into Colors, skirts this strange line between accessible and alienating. It tumbles into poppy rhythms and very dancy psych beats, all the while under a gloomy, doomy, cloud. It’s kind of like the Monster Mash in that way.
They have a single, and I’ve heard rumblings that something longer is coming out soonish.
Thank you Mike for sending this to our office.
Dinosaur Feathers – Early Morning Risers
In the wake of springs and summers and sands and sandwiches and good things to come, enjoy Dinosaur Feathers. Not afraid to record with half decent fidelity, they seem like ambassadors to the sounds you hear when you think of all those things. Also, I’m pretty sure they own Pet Sounds.
Saint Etienne – Spring (Air France Remix)
It’s been a while since I was completely obsessed with the Swedish electronic duo Air France’s No Way Down EP, which is amazing and got some serious play. This is a remix of the 1991 track “Spring” by Saint Etienne and it’s nothing short of ‘the shit’.
