Let's Slow Things Down To Sixty Seconds An Hour is the title of Youan's newest release. This UK pop tranquilizer has brilliantly compiled six tracks to form this lusty mixtape. A teaser "LSTDTSSAH" sets off with 56 seconds of a preview and immediately drifts into "Promises", which contains samples of Ciara's garbled voice and lyrics; "cause baby, there's nothing I won't do, to spend my life with you". You might be able to recognize all the choruses in Let's Slow Things Down To Sixty Seconds An Hour because most of them...
Seattle 's psychedelic soundscapers, Beat Connection has yet again, connected the dots and refined an already glorious track entitled "Close" from Sun Airway. The original song is taken from Sun Airway's upcoming album , Soft Fall out on October 2nd via Dead Oceans.

As part of the Less Artists More Condos 7" series from Brooklyn's Famous Class Records, the label asked their favorite Baltimore synth-rock stars to contribute an unreleased track. In return, the alliance of Future Islands delivered a single titled "Cotton Flower". "Cotton Flower" is about being...
The joy of stumbling upon unexpectedly good shit. That's the perfect bad title for what I experienced listening to canadian-promise-(currently-being-fulfilled) Airick Woodhead's new EP under his fairly recent (2010), but already hyped, Doldrums pseudonym. Released less than a month ago on...
A Quick Word from the Author: If you're from the United States, then I hope your 4th was as splendid as the 30 second burst of fireworks in San Diego. It's a glorious day to eat a whole lot of unhealthy food, drink a lot of booze and blow shit up. It's how we do here. We're 'MERICA, and we have...
