Brooklyn quintet Isadora identify the early work of Andrew Bird as one of their key influences and inspirations, and that's easy to hear in their confident and diverse melodies. There's many elements to Isadora's sound that are profoundly non-Andrew-Bird-esque: where Bird's music feels...
We've featured the remixology of Coyote Kisses a few times on the site before (perhaps most notably with a "Call Me Maybe" remix), but this latest release marks as a bit of a departure from the remix-re-release norm. Coyote Kisses, who are Bryce Bresnan and Joe Sussingham, recorded live drum and...
