Synkro – Lost For Words

Talk about a deep cut. I could be listening to this at my desk at work and still feel like I’m on an introspective midnight journey through empty city streets. Manchester, UK based producer Synkro makes dubstep for the soul.

Future Islands – In the Fall (feat. Katrina Ford)

Baltimore’s “post-wave” trio Future Islands recently released their In the Fall 12″ as a precursor to their upcoming full-length album In Evening Air (slated for a May release). Bringing new-wave, dreampop, and electro elements together with simple pop sensibility, they’ve cultivated a deep, almost nostalgic sound. This track makes me think they should’ve been touring with the Cocteau Twins rather than Dan Deacon.

Toro y Moi – You Hid

It’s been almost three months since I posted about Toro y Moi’s track Talamak. In that time I’ve managed to become completely obsessed with almost every track off his new LP “Causers of This”. I really had to restrain myself from posting all of them on here. Pitchfork actually slammed “You Hid” as one of the weakest tracks on the album— but I call bullshit. This one is smooth like a warm glass of cough syrup.

Tim Hecker – I’m Transmitting Tonight

This track is making my morning right now. I came across this after following a video my man Jason Bergman posted in his blog on http://togetherboston.com. Great stuff.
