secret mommy

what i am giving to you is secret mommy. the way the glitch-pop music just flows out of his hands is incredible, especially considering most of the music you hear has been taken from field recordings. i'm presenting you with 2 albums. there is no ghetto booty bass so don't get your hopes up! i list the albums in order of importance to me...the only judge. plus like i always say, i'm not going to talk your ear off about the artist, you can research him just fine. just download it 'cause i'm telling you it's good.


for me its a toss up between the wisdome ep and very rec as the best album in his collection. wisdom ep really has only 6 songs (with 3 being remixes that i dont care for) but download this first and see if you can get in the groove.

track listing:

1. Preamble (3:45)
2. Cleaning (7:04)
3. Surgery (4:51)
4. Preamble (Dream Clap Remix) by Sun Papi K.O. (2:56)
5. Cleaning (Peaches & Cream Remix) by Kit Clayton (3:24)
6. Surgery (Medieval Rural Denture Remix) by Piers Whyte (3:54)

track listing:

1. Tennis Court (4:38)
2. Pool (3:45)
3. Soccer Field (2:59)
4. Yoga Studio (1:23)

six organs of admittance - school of the flower

first post of 08 and im gonna steal from last.fm........haha. im seriously going to post like 5 albums here in the next week 'cause i think more people should listen.

this is relevant if you live in phoenix as he will be here on the 11th @ the modified. this album is definitely more solid than some of his other albums, but hey, life is a learning curve right?

enjoy...more to come later this week.

"Six Organs of Admittance is the primary musical project of guitarist Ben Chasny. Chasny's music is largely guitar-based, however it includes eastern influences, marked by drones, chimes, and eclectic percussive elements. The band is associated with numerous current scenes, most notably the New Weird America movement. Acts ranging from folk artist Devendra Banhart to drone metal band Sunn O))) to the highly experimental Current 93 count Chasny among friends. Six Organs has always been a critical darling, and the past few years have seen their stature in the indie world substantially increase.
Chasny is also a member of the psychedelic band Comets on Fire, and has working relationships with Badgerlore and Current 93."

Bongripper-Heroin

see this is the reason why chicago seems so fun to me.  you get bands like bongripper.  experimental doom metal that will spook the shit out of you all the while leaving you with this big gaping hole in your chest that just needs more and more. lets see what listening to bongripper in an altered state of mind will do...maybe it'll make you kill your grandma...who knows.  not much else can really be said...why would you want all the fluff?  aside from my gibberish, just let heroin rot your insides.

here enjoy a super classy picture of the guitar player.

French Teen Idol - Enlightened False Consciousness

time for another awesome review from the ryguy...ok, im kidding.  ---->POINT<----

  if you are a fan of Sigur Ros or M83 you will love this cd.  if you dont love it then i think something is wrong with you.  personally, i enjoy this cd more than M83's latest efforts.  you will be sure to find ambient music with nice lyrical samples played over the top layer.

just trust me and download it, i shouldnt have to try this hard to get you to download and listen.  haha.

emperor x

emperor x is a one man band with an eclectic sense of style.  from a recording standpoint im really enjoying this cd.  it is interesting to hear how he can take super warm sounding guitar (that comes from plugging directly into his computer or mixer) and turn that into something that wont make you cringe.  if i remember correctly, ive also heard that he recorded some of the vocal tracks in his bathroom, which does give it a unique type of sound.  im telling you right now that this cd is not for everyone, but if you give it a couple of listens you will find the songs that hit home for you.  

for people who can handle: harvey danger, xiu xiu, mountain goats, and anything else sometimes found annoying....

but i leave you with this....you do have A RIGHT TO THE RAILS.

gnight.

xela-the dead sea.

if you are looking for an glitchy electronic ambient cd with enough groove to make your head nod and enough things happening so you arent bored (or falling asleep) then i suggest you give xela a listen. (pronounced "zella"(i think) for all those pronunciation nazis...).  

for fans of ulrich schnauss, dosh, efterklang....and on and on and on...

Dynamite Hack - Superfast

A lot of people (mostly bros) remember Dynamite Hack as the band that covered Eazy-E's song "Boyz in tha Hood" but no one gives them the proper respect that they deserve. "Superfast" is their debut album that no one likes and no one pays attention too. Kind of sad if you ask me, it's one of my favorites. They disappeared for a few years and then reemerged on their myspace saying they were working on a new album for release in 2007, but it never came. Strangely, they did post 8 new songs which have now disappeared.

For fans of: old Weezer (apparently they were the only band Weezer personally asked to open for them, or something. I forget where I read that.)
