After hours grooving in one of the coolest cribs Stateside
“False Flags” / Massive Attack
Beautiful, haunting tune… somehow feels like the band is wrapping around you on this one – especially in headphones.
“The Pills Won’t Help You Now” / The Chemical Brothers
These guys have a terrific ability to give a unique personality to each element. everything plays together so effortlessly here.
“Blue Clouds” / Modeselektor
Love these fizzy synths looping while the rhythm section chugs away. very heavy, dark groove… though the tune feels light and energetic to me… can’t name a lot of songs that do that.
“Great Release” / LCD Soundsystem
LCD are one of my favorites right now, big fan of this slow, growing track.
“Held Apart” / Arca
Celestial melody and stunning sounds.
“Everyday Robots” / Damon Albarn
Damon is a long-time favorite of mine. both the video and the song are mesmerizing.
“Unravel” / Björk
Aching, evolving layers here.. björk floats on top. probably my favorite tune from her, though it’s very hard to choose.
“The Build Up” / Kimbra
Close your eyes and don’t open them until it’s over, okay? another wonderful headphone tune.
“Bonnie and Clyde” / Tricky
Such a dense, shadowy vibe here. love this entire record. tricky’s vocal doubles throughout tie the album together in a clever way.
“Locked” / Four Tet
The grooves four tet achieves are some of my favorites ever. they are alive.
On the eve of his debut album ‘Highspeeds’, youthful upstate New Yorker Elliot Moss marks his first live foray this side of the Atlantic. Multi-instrumentalist, Moss arrives on these shores clutching plaudits from the likes of Fader and Spin along with a SxSW appearance and shows with Cold War Kids under his belt – ‘Highspeeds’ is a breathtakingly emotive album and sees Moss effortlessly drawing on electronic, jazz and ambient influences resulting in a truly immersive soundscape.
His new album ‘Highspeeds’ is out 25th Sep 2015 and he is headlining [PIAS] Nites @ The Lexiington in London on 29th Sep 2015.
