Like in the Night How the Heart Becomes the Truth

Friday Morning Hymnal

CURRENTLY LISTENING TO

Brooklyn/Koln

i actually stumbled on these ep's, while looking for a way to embed the right type of player for the unsigned stuff. of course i got distracted and began looking at music. good thing i did, because i have been enjoying this for a few days now. these guys must not have a label's interest yet, because if they did and they had some recordings of this caliber i cannot imagine a label allowing them to just give them away.

if you enjoyed the toro y moi post, if you like sigur ros, or many mansions, ambience, dreamy-ness, or if you have a pulse, you will probably be into this. the project refers to itself as "lo-fi shai" i'm not sure what that means but i don't disagree either. really abstract, and melodic, sometimes noisy, great samples. good feelings all over this stuff. r&b, i know right, but i hear it too, though i cannot fully explain why without sounding completely moronic. there are four ep's here, i think i posted them backwards though. i believe friday morning hymnal to be the earliest, and will u sleep to be the latest, in case that matters. and if your experiencing moral issue, intestinal discomfort, or body shame, don't fret--these are also given away by the artists on their blog, which is quite cool, and soundcloud. (howtodresswell.blogspot.com) its way too soon to choose a favorite yet, but they are all really good, and just what i needed this week. hope you think the same. i have also included the artwork for each ep just because i think that is all very well selected, an interesting. enjoy

UNKNOWN/UNSIGNED

Michigan

earnest and honest. this album feels really good. i love the voice, i love the lyrics, guitar tone, and more. but i am not going to sit here and ball-wash this album all day, further discrediting myself than i already have. the last one i kept short and sweet, but here, i am gushing. let myself get all wet over some bedroom discs. no. that's not the case. both of these UNKNOWN/UNSIGNED posts are really good. i listen to a lot of this diy music, and i am not going to bring to you "ok" stuff. written and recorded fall 07 to spring 08, in disneyland, hamtramack. try this.
