L.A. lo-fi pop group Pearl Harbor has decided to now go by the name Puro Instinct, maybe for fear of being labeled with bad taste? I don’t know, but since their last awesome single, “Luv Goon,” they have recorded an EP and set up a Bandcamp page. The Puro Instinct EP features [...]

The folks over at One Thirty BPM just released the latest EP from musician Kyle Wyss’ project Chromatic Flights and it’s just great. Because what we want on this dreary, rainy day (at least here in D.C.) is more deeply chilled-out music to sink into our chairs with.

Leave a comment | Apparently the mystery band thing is still in full swing as we received another email with very little information and some nice tunes late last night. Here’s what their “unofficial” self-written bio said: Three dudes. In a band. Highly unoriginal. But from modest bedroom recordings in Harlem sprung two voice boxes, a [...] March 30th, 2010 | Tags: Canoodle, e.p., MP3 | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3, New Albums |
One comment | Nothing like a summery, shimmery track to get us pumped for a cold weekend! I haven’t heard from Ghosty in a while, but this new song reminded me what I enjoyed about them: pleasant vocals (this time Andrew Connor and David Wetzel do a little call and response) and a tight guitar [...] February 12th, 2010 | Tags: A Mystic Robe, e.p., Ghosty, MP3, Secret Language | Category: MP3 |
Leave a comment | After KR took a month’s hiatus from the Akudama boys, they’re back again with Thumbelina – their latest, free, monthly EP. The stunning range of styles Akudama manages to incorporate into their music is admirable and unique. “Thumbelina”, the title track, is very beach boys-y during the choruses and soft and folksy [...] November 2nd, 2009 | Tags: Akudama, e.p., free, Thumbelina | Category: Download, MP3, New Albums |
Leave a comment | Courtesy of KCRW’s “Today’s Top Tune”: Greg Laswell is an LA-based producer and songwriter with a few full-length original albums under his belt. For his upcoming EP, however, he’s decided to re-interpret some of his favorites songs. Here’s a preview with Today’s Top Tune, a haunting version of Kristin Hersh’s ” Your [...] August 4th, 2009 | Tags: Covers, e.p., Greg Laswell, KCRW, Kristin Hersh, Piano pop, Today's Top Tune, Your Ghost | Category: Download, MP3 |
Leave a comment | Our Akudama friends keep churning ‘em out – they haven’t once flaked on the whole monthly free EP thing yet. Impressive stuff. Also, they’re starting to add more shows to their bill (Pianos in NYC Sept. 8, 15, and 22 + Boston’s Middle East Upstairs this Thursday, 8/6) and are gaining increasing [...] August 1st, 2009 | Tags: Akudama, Barbershop, Boston, Download, e.p., free, Gina Cimmelli, Middle East Upstairs, New, NYC, Pianos, Shows | Category: Concerts / Tour Dates, Download, MP3, New Albums |
2 comments | Ah saiddd, you ain’t punchin’ those keys hard enough feller! D.C.’s Typefighter comes to Knox Road through a recommendation from good pal Aaron Leeder, of D.C. and NYC (and swiftly growing) favorites, Exit Clov. He has been incredibly supportive of this here blog, and we thank him (and the rest of Exit [...] July 10th, 2009 | Tags: Acoustic, D.C., e.p., folk, I Want To See You Game Boys I Want To See You Brave, MP3, Music, Typefighter | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3 |
Leave a comment | To be honest, something about the email we got from Bagheera’s press team threw me off, and I began listening to their music with a bit of hesitation. Thankfully, that feeling wore off quickly, as listening to the hazy, devious sound from the Liverpool, UK boys put me in the right mood [...] July 3rd, 2009 | Tags: Bagheera, e.p., Hollow Home, MP3, Music, UK | Category: Artist Profiles, MP3 |
3 comments | The New York crew is at it again with their monthly free EPs, and they’ve managed to show improvement on each one (which is difficult because I loved the first effort I heard), establishing even further chemistry. This one mirrors the time of its release, as “Sun (From Underneath The Lake)” is [...] |
