Here we have the next installment of our weekly mixtape, with hits from artists we’ve covered and other fresh tracks from this past week. We covered great shows like Rubblebucket and The Helio Sequence, reviewed the new Crystal Castles album, interviewed Brooklyn band on the rise Los Encantados, profiled Singer/songwriter Lianne La Havas for our Artist of the Week, and a couple other fresh tracks have streamed through our ears recently that we like. Press play and let this past week run through your ears.
Tracklist:
The Mynabirds – “Body of Work”
Slowdance – “Spell”
Dumbo Gets Mad – “Bam Bam”
Lianne La Havas – “Forget”
Crystal Castles – “Plague”
Ramona Falls – “I Say Fever”
The Helio Sequence – “October”
Los Encantados – “ZZZZ”
and Video from Teeth & Tongue – “The Party is You”
The Mynabirds released a new video for “Body of Work,” and we’ve got the mp3 below.
I also caught The Helio Sequence, Ramona Falls, and Slowdance at Bowery Ballroom, so they all get a shout here.
Italian psych pop duo Dumbo Gets Mad released new track “Bam Bam” this past week.
Mercury Prize-nominated singer/songwriter Lianne La Havas was our latest Artist of the Week, so below we included her sassy single “Forget.”
Katrina Nattress reviewed Crystal Castle’s new album and was impressed with their macabre maturity. She also interviewed Los Encantados, who are a band to watch out of Brooklyn.
We are also diggin’ this sedated late night rocker from Teeth & Tongue, “The Party is You.”
