It’s time again for Spankin New Tunes this [Music Friday]! This week we explore 10 new artists, some you may already know and hopefully many you don’t. Yet again I have enlisted the help of “Shannon the Boy” to share his picks for the latest in new music. All contributions by STB will be in red. (To download all music click HERE.)

Keepaway a  Brooklyn, New York based band, has a sound that actually gives this 3 piece the freedom to play a diverse genre of shows and grow an audience where ever they play. With their off-the-wall, harmonic chant based vocals and recipe of electronic meets organic, they can be compared to the the likes of Animal Collective, but in a much more marketable and structured package.

Keepaway -”Yellow Wings”
Keepaway -”I Think About You All the Time”

Glasser is the dreamy, ethereal one-woman project of Cameron Mesirow of LA.  She flew onto the scene last year with her Apply EP, beautifully composed on Garage Band.  For her upcoming full length debut, Ring, she gets the full studio treatment.  And the organic sounds of strings and woodwinds float her layers of vocals to new heights. In your face, lo-fi!

Glasser -”Home”
Glasser -”Tremel”

The five members of Grouplove met on the small Island of Crete in Greece. Whether it was fate, destiny, circumstance, or some combination of the three, they became so close to each other that they were compelled to come together in Los Angeles nearly a year later to record an album. Together they have created aggressively catchy little diddies and epic knee-slappin jamborees, minus the twang!

Grouplove -”Colours”
Grouplove -”Naked Kids”

UK producer Darren Williams mixes chopped and sliced beats with Dilla-like precision to create addictive instrumental hip-hop.  His first full length, Volume 1, can be snatched from his bandcamp page.  Also, check out his remix of the new Small Black song “Photojournalist”.

Star Slinger -”May I Walk With You”
Star Slinger -”Minted”

This Vermont based outfit, led by Kyle Thomas (known from the band Feathers) initially was put together to play only one show  in support of Thomas’s solo project. This project led to them being signed by Sub Pop less than six months after recording (not releasing) their first LP. Happy Birthday weave together near perfect pop gems while channeling equal parts Marc Bolan and Lou Reed.

Happy Birthday -”Subliminal Message”
Happy Birthday -”Girls FM”

Russia hasn’t produced a band this good since . . . well, Russia has never produced a band this good.  This quintet sounds like the Clientele with jangly Johnny Marr guitars and deep baritone Ian Curtis vocals.  Perfectly tuned for some Autumn leaves to drop.  Their debut LP, ALPS, can be downloaded FREE from their blog.

Motorama -”Wind in Her Hair”
Motorama -”Ghost”

If Villa Nah were from New York, London or Berlin, you’d have heard of them before now, But they’re from Finland for crying out loud! Juho Paalosmaa and Tomi Hyyppä’s (common names) comprise this sleek synth duo. At times  Junior Boys, Cut Copy, The Russian Futurists, and Ariel Pink can be heard through tangled moog cables.
Villa Nah -”Envelope”
Villa Nah -”Ways To be With You”

Beat Connection have brought the sunshine to Seattle’s beaches.  This duo describes their sound as “challenging surf-y-psychedelic-balearic-disco-dance-electro-pop infused with a healthy dose of rock and house music”.  Whether you love it for its BPM or its SPF, grab their Surf Noir EP for FREE on their bandcamp page.

Beat Connection -”In the Water”
Beat Connection -”Sliver Screen”

Philadelphia duo Sun Airway are the latest of tropical/chill/electro tsunami’s flooding music blogs and ipods. Though they sound more like an airline than a band,  they’ve done remixes for Caribou, Delorean, Here We Go Magic and The Hundred In The Hands but their own tunes are amazingly ethereal entities on their own. Comprised of songwriter Jon Barthmus and musician Patrick Marsceill, Sun Airways recorded their first album in Barthmus’s basement. End result: a gorgeous selection of mystically warm, sun-island electro pop.

Sun Airway -”Oh Naoko”
Sun Airway -”Waiting on You”

Jersey boy, Judd Hower, is Navajo Bixby.  He’s been floating these tracks around for a while now and recently added a video for Moonlighting.  But for now, I’m standing here in my swim trunks, twiddling my thumbs, waiting for a full length of his Panda-Bear-plays-calypso-core pop jams

Navajo Bixby -”Moonlighting”
Navajo Bixby -”Many Ways”

Some say the world will end in fire,

Saturday night I was invited to the Havaianas party by Geri from Because I’m Addicted. The party was hosted at a Hancock Park Mansion and had a Fat Burger truck and a full open bar with everything you can ask for… minus Jack. It was by far one of the best nights I have had out in LA since I moved back here.  To check out the rest of the pics Click Here.

Well it’s that time again! Its time for another Covers Edition of [Music Friday]. One thing I have noticed after gathering hundreds of cover songs is that as a majority they tend to be slower versions. Which makes it hard to put together a playlist that isn’t a real snoozer! Also I’ve noticed that Flaming Lips cover just about everyone and that there is never a shortage of interesting Radiohead covers. This week the covers range from Neon Indian to the Jungle Book to Whitney Houston. Yeah pretty random. So sit back relax and sing along, cause the best part about covers is that you already know the words! To download tracks click HERE

Flaming Lips -Borderline (Madonna Cover)

Senor Coconut -Around the World (Daft Punk Cover)

Mason Proper -Love Lockdown/ Get Innocuous (LCD/Kanye Mash-up Cover)

John Vanderslice -Karma Police (Radiohead Cover)

Telephoned -O.N.E. (Yeasayer Cover)

Pale Young Gentlemen -Paper Planes (MIA Cover)

Temper Trap -Dancing in the Dark (Bruce Springsteen Cover)

Jesse Woods -Mind Drips (Neon Indian Cover)

Marching Band -Out of Touch (Hall and Oats Cover)

The Morning Benders -I Wanna Be Like You (Jungle Book Cover)

Jonsi -Time to Pretend (MGMT Cover)

Death metal Disco Scene -I Wanna Dance With Somebody (Whitney Houston Cover)

Twenty-two year old English actress Lily Cole is probably one of the luckiest women in the world having played alongside Heath Ledger, Johnny Depp, Colin Farrell, and Jude Law all in one movie. The Imaginaruium of Dr. Parnassus was Miss Cole’s first leading role as well as Heath Ledger’s last before his death in 2008. Although the film ended up being over plotted and quite a head scratcher, I do recommend watching it for the  beautiful wardrobe, elaborate set design, and, of course, the amazing cast.

This [Music Friday] we explore the evolution of Psychedelic Rock. From it’s beginning to modern day. I was lucky to have guess music blogger “Shannon the Boy” help split the duties with me. His contributions will be in red. So sit back, relax , set a sugar cube gently on your tongue and push play.

Psychedelic Music dropped way back in 1965 with Roky Erickson’s band, 13th Floor Elevators, and quickly exploded from the underground into the mainstream.  The Beatles brought it to the masses; and the masses flocked to San Francisco, where the Haight-Ashbury scene was the Mecca of Psych.   In the decades to come, psych fell in and out of fashion and splintered into a million sub-genres.  Today, it permeates so many aspects of music it can be tough to say what is and isn’t psych.  These days, psychedelia is in the dilated eye of the beholder. To download entire playlist click HERE. (playlist will fit on a single cd)

60’s

Far Out, Man -Intro
The Beatles -Tomorrow Never Knows
The 13th Floor Elevators -She Lives in a Time of Her Own
Free Design -Bubbles
Jimi Hendrix -Burning of the Midnight Lamp
Grateful Dead -China Cat Sunflower

Pink Floyd -One of These Days
Led Zepplin -Misty Mountain Hop

80’s

The crew of Studio Gold - a new production team in the works here in Austin  (consisting of myself, Laura Kaululaau and Carlos Seckler) – had the great privilege of working with the incredibly talented hair stylist Shawna Parvin, model Clancy, and clothing designer Amanda Yilmaz this past Sunday. After shooting Amanda’s two other amazing garments inspired by the Queen of Hearts and the Mad Hatter in the studio, we found a couple beautiful locations to shoot the gorgeous Alice dress for the grand finale. We’ve been busy working and collaborating with some talented creatives so stay tuned for more images from other editorial shoots with our dear friend and wardrobe stylist  Luis Ramirez.

Ibiza was really crazy and to be honest not really my scene. The beaches were amazing as was some of the food but these mega clubs that held like 6,000 people were a little intense and insane for me. On top of that everyone was smoking cigarettes like they just came out of their last AA meeting. Below are some of my favorite pics of Ibiza. Guetta was Ghetto.

What a show these guys rocked the entire crowd and it was amazing. My only complaint was they didn’t play long enough.

Just landed in Rome today and was finally able to get Internet in my room. My first stop on the trip was Amsterdam, then Paris which was delectable, took a night train to San Sabatian, Ibiza, and finally now Rome. I still have a week to go and pictures to post from Paris and on. Jay’s Juices in Amsterdam was one of the best juice bars I have ever been to, as was this restaurant we went to called Cafe George. Check back soon for more.

This weeks installment of [Music Friday] we take a look at some up and comers in the new music world. Hopefully you will be turned on to a few new characters  or if you already know all these bands you can brag about it on your blog. Be our guests! Speaking of guests, this week we have the honor of our guest music blogger ‘Shannon the Boy’. All contributions by ‘Shannon the Boy’ will be in Red! (click on the song names to download, also all bands myspaces are linked to names in bold)

Fitz and Tantrums

Fitz and the Tantrums is an LA Based group with a Motown and soul-influenced indie pop vibe. Six killer musicians, five dapper suits, irresistible songs, some serendipity and one vintage organ. Oddly enough grew to fame after opening up for Maroon Five. But we won’t judge!

Fitz and Tantrums “Breakin The Chains of Love”

Chappo

New York City’s Chappo brings us the whimsical track “Come Home.” A duo with a vocal style and musical direction that has a cosmic twang one would hope an actual Space Cowboy would listen to. Sometimes reminiscent vocally of Neil Young or Clap Your Hands Say Yeah, hey will get your fingers snappin and your feet a stompin!

Chappo  “Come Home”

The Samps

This two-some from California, the Samps (short for South African Metaphysical Society, what else?), have formulated a low fidelity dance floor funk  usually only found in the classics .“Peppergood” is as funky as retro-electro-disco gets! …..Say that 5 times fast: retro-electro-disco, retro-electro-disco…..

The Samps “Peppergood”

Light Pollution

Straight out of Chi-town, Light Pollution serves up a good old-fashioned helping of irregular song composition,  synthesizer textures, and new wave basslines, all wrapped in heavy reverb. I had the pleasure of seeing these guys a month ago here in Austin, they definitely bring the same musical intensity to their live show. This is true indie rock at its finest!

Light Pollution  “Good Feeling”

Light Pollution  “Oh, Ivory”

Psychobuildings

Brooklyn darkwave/synth trio Psychobuildings, featuring members of Small Black and Silk Flowers, soundtrack your next dungeon dance party.  No worries, however, this is not “fear for your life” darkwave, via SALEM, Psychobuilding’s flavor of darkwave is pure 80’s-synth-neon-lit-dungeon-danceclub.

Psychobuidings “Terror Management”

Psychobuildings  “Paradise”

Everything Everything

Hailing from Newcastle and Kent but congregating in Manchester, Everything Everything make “unconventional pop at its bravest and best”, inspired by everyone from R Kelly to Ezra Pound. This 3 piece made their mark at SXSW ‘09 and are slowly working their way in to the hearts of Nu-New Wavers everywhere. Infectious melodies and quick time changes make for some amazingly catchy brit pop!

Everything Everything “Schoolin”

Everything Everything “My Kz Ur Bf”

Monarchy

Little is known about Monarchy, apart from the fact that they are (once again) based in London and these two bring soul back to the synth. Putting out tracks that are flash-frozen, blistering cold electro-soul. Sometimes compared to Junior Boys laced with the a louder presence of emotional gesturing. I have the lovely Miss Hannah from Tick Tick Bang to thank for this amazing little discovery.

Monarchy “Love Get Out of My Way”

Monarchy “Gold in the Fire”

Blue Hawaii

More warm, beach-ready sounds coming downstairs from frosty Canada.  This Montreal boy/girl duo’s lilting breezes and percolating beats drift more toward, say, Hawaii, than the Hudson Bay.  Perfect sounds for docking the boat at sunset and lighting the fire.  Download their Arbutus Records debut album, Blooming Summer, from their MySpace page (while it’s still free).

Blue Hawaii “Blue Gowns”

Blue Hawaii “Belize”

Teen Daze

Mysterious producer out of “Vancougar”, Teen Daze has been leaking delicious tracks for a few months now, not to mention some great remixes of Local Natives, Washed Out, and Caribou, and a perfectly matched duet with Houses.  Call it “dreamwave”, call it “post-glo-fi”, but whatever you call it, it’s worth picking up his debut LP, Four More Years, coming out any second now on Arcade Sound Ltd.

Teen Daze “Gone for Summer”

Teen Daze  “Around”

Dominique Young Unique

Dominique Young Unique, 18-year-old rapper from Tampa Bay, a quick flowing provocateur ready to show that- this gurl aint playin! First brought to my attention by Matt Shiv at SXSW, Dominique dropped the heat at this years event, especially at Austin’s own Knuckle Rumbler Lounge. Her raunchy sex driven single “Show My Ass” displays her uninhibited, bleeding sass, operated at 180 mph.

Dominique Young Unique “Show My Ass”

It’s time to hear a song again for the first time. In this Remix Edition of Music Friday, we will explore 10 remixes that you may or may not have heard or artists you may or may not have heard of. So just shut up and listen!

“Wait Up (Boots of Danger)” – Tokyo Police Club (Passion Pit Remix)

One tour-mate remixing another, can you feel the love? Passion Pit has stripped Tokyo Police Club of its guitars and pop swagger, transforming this track into a vocal driven 808 earthquake. The build up on this one is absolutely amazing. Download HERE

“Baby I’m Yours” – Breakbot (Aeroplane Remix)

Paris based Breakbot gets muscled by Brussels in this “movie montage-esque” epic remix. Aeroplane took this track from its original electro funk state and created an 80’s action themed anthem! Once this track gets going, you are gonna want to throw on your boxing gloves and headband as you slowly achieve final awesomeness through clever movie editing! Go for it! Download HERE

“Tightrope” – Janelle Monae (Lupe Fiasco and B.o.B. Remix)

Janelle Monae has become a critical darling on the music scene for her unique music and overall personal style.  The R&B singer has remixed the single “Tightrope” with rappers B.O.B and Lupe Fiasco giving it less of retro radio vibe and more of slamm’in hip hop feel! Keep tippin! Download HERE

“Wide Eyes” – Local Natives (Fools Gold Remix)

Despite its happy-go-lucky demeanor, Local Natives “Wide Eyes” deals with sinister and spiritual subject matter. On this remix, Fools Gold finds a way to mirror the song’s uneasy terrain, burying the Natives’ pretty boy harmonies under an industrial coat of grime. With Hip-Hop high-hats, finger snaps and additional vocals by Aristotle Pop A Bottle seriously alter this one! Eyes wide shut! Download HERE

“Celestica” – Crystal Castles (Bear In Heaven Remix)

Bear In Heaven transformed this Crystal Castles tune it into something sensually soothing and more percussive. This new take maintains the original’s heavenly feel, but  feels more grounded in a manner in which they would normally never display. Kids these days… Download HERE

“Its Working” – MGMT (Air Remix)

Say what you want about the new MGMT album but this remix’s linear electric motion will definitely get the juices flowing. Air took a psychedelic rock track and manufactured a haunting baseline driven assembly line of pounding percussion and sonic smokestacks. By the end of it, the feel is  gently lifted from the grind by piano rolls and clarinets! Punch out and tune in. Download HERE

“Shakedown Street” – Grateful Dead (Tommie Sunshine Remix)

Deadheads are gonna poop their patchwork corduroy’s when they hear what Tommie Sunshine did to their lovable Jerry Garcia and crew! Tommie geniously took what was once called the only Disco Dead song and made it into a track that could easily be mistaken for the next Daft Punk hit. Download HERE

“Madder Red” -Yeasayer (Goldenfilter Remix)

This total rework of the Yeasayer single is minimal and truly tribal in its essence. Goldenfilter takes us on a trek through a vast landscape of the dramatic strings and electronic frequencies in this version. Penelope Trappes even contributes her own vocals to the Lion King like “oohs and awws”. Elton would be proud. Download HERE

“Animal” – Miike Snow (Mark Ronson Remix)

Lets roll one up and follow our animal instincts on this one. Mark Ronson dressed up this Miike Snow single in a dub step, horns blazing reggae vibe. A very clever take on the electro pop song. I still laugh every time I hear the sheep sounds. This track will definitely get the dreads a swingin. Near the beach, boh-eeee!!! Download HERE

“Symphonies”- Dan Black (Mahesh Raghavan Remix)

VERY RARE REMIX! This is actually a fan remix I took from an online contest. A very simple and enjoyable version of Dan Blacks once Biggie Smalls inspired hit. Enjoy it cause you will probably only hear it on Hellox6.com. Download HERE.

Tags: breakbot, Crystal Castles, dan black, grateful dead, Janelle Monae, local natives, MGMT, Miike Snow, tokyo Police Club, Yeasayer
