Caribou – Swim CD & 2LP
- Electronic music heading toward a more organic state can be seen perfected in Animal Collective’s “Merriweather Post Pavilion.” So when Mr Snaith takes his project to a more liquid sounding direction he goes the way of avant garde disco artist Arthur Russell. Mixing a perfect blend of the chilled out electonic atmosphere on the recent Four Tet record and the song craft of Caribou’s Polaris winning record “Andorra” making this release a dynamic auditory experience with resonant beats that swim from speaker to speaker.

MGMT – Congratulations Limited edition LP & CD
-This is a really good pop record. Sharing production duties with the sonic boom of Spacemen 3, evoking a visual experince with a multitude of subtle textures and references that are revealed with every listen. Imagine a ceremony type atmosphere in a large L.A. mansion where two ghosts possess the memebers of the band, reclaiming their late 60’s pop glory. Lots of gold and orange red plus new guitar pedals and expensive computer recording programs. Exchanging the synthesized boogie shaking sounds for the warmth of organs. – ES

New Local Releases :

Vincent Parker: Prism Myst CDR
- The making of electronic music can be a very sweatless creation. Rock musicians pummel away for hours in sweaty basements losing hearing. Vincent keeps it real with a variety of dance inducing tones with a set up that induces live off the floor mixes through dual “kaoss” pads. Creating a mind warping dance floor where the electronic musician may be sweating more then audience combined! Perhaps this is why it is called Prism Myst?

Cousin Harley – It’s A Sin CD
Shane Turner Overdrive – S/T CD
Angry Dragons – 7″ lp
